Banding was an issue at a previous company that I worked for that had the FB700. Not on all substrates, but some more than others. One thing to consider on the belt system is whether you'll be doing CNC graphic finishing. My impression has been that a true flat bed is more accurate especially when it comes to shapes other than simple rectangles. We produce a lot of retail displays that have complex shapes and we have very small tolerances, so I feel like the best solution for us is the true flatbed. If your work doesn't require that, then it's a toss up. Having used both though, I would prefer the true flatbed, but still wish I could do roll to roll like the FB700 sometimes. Good Luck!
