• FB8000PRO Is a digital die cutting system enabling printed sheets to be cut and creased using lines drawn from leading vector graphic design applications. Being digital, sheets can be cut instantly and on-demand, without sending out for dies or to have cutting forms made. Automated functionality enables unattended operation. 
• The auto sheet feeder enables users to stack up to 25kg of sheets, which are loaded on to the cutting belt using a pneumatic feed system with vacuum pick up suction cups and a sophisticated air blade system, to help eliminate miss feeds. 
• The cutter receives the auto fed sheets onto its cutting mat and uses a high resolution CCD camera to scan registration marks and also read QR codes to identify and automatically retrieve the appropriate cutting file from the ColorCut Pro’s remote job library. The FB8000PRO can cut and crease a single sheet through a set number of copies to the entire media stack in the feeder. Mixed batches of different jobs can be loaded together and each cut accurately, efficiently and reliably. 

When volume production matters, the FB8000PRO comes in to its own.

This is a turnkey solution for automated stacking, feed and  cutting of absolutely any shape packaging or sheet labels, and is targeted for high production environments. 

Once set up, the FB8000PRO can run unattended, simply monitor production and re-stack with media and remove finished work from output tray – cutting and creasing almost any printed promotional item, to absolutely any shape! In auto sheet feeding mode, the cutting table accommodates up to one SRA3 (Tabloid Plus) – or two sheets in manual placement. 

The advanced ASF8000 auto sheet feeder delivers precise media handling for a perfectly synchronised, high speed, digital die cutting system. This enables users to stack up to 25kg – up to 2,000 of printed media, which is loaded on to the cutting mat using a pneumatic feed system with vacuum pick up suction pads and a sophisticated air blade system, to help eliminate miss feeds.

The FB8000PRO cutter receives the auto fed sheets onto its cutting mat and uses a high resolution CCD camera to scan registration marks and also read QR codes to identify and automatically retrieve the associated cutting file from the ColorCut Pro’s Job Library. The FB8000 can cut and crease a single sheet through a set number of copies to the entire media stack in the feeder. Mixed batches of different jobs can be loaded together and they will each be cut accurately, efficiently and reliably.

Intec also offers manually fed digital flatbed cutting solutions.

What does ‘AUTOMATED’ actually mean?

Good question: Because the FB8000PRO is a digital cutting table, coupled with an auto-feeding stacking unit, the complete process can be set up to run automatically, without an operator in attendance.

So, how does the automation deal with MIXED JOBS?

The FB8000PRO would be perfect for this type of work. Owing to the sophistication of the software supplied with the cutting device, the cutter can easily handle a stack of mixed jobs. The Vision3 CCD video camera reads the QR code on every single sheet it is presented with and instantly retrieves the cut file associated with that job. This is seamless and takes no time at all – even if sheets happen to be placed into the stacker at 180°

Will this machine CREASE card as well as cut it?

Absolutely! The dual tool head carries both a cutting and a creasing tool, which can apply up to a class-leading 1kg of force. Via the supplied ColorCut Pro software, the FB8000 can be set to cut, crease, perforate and score any shape required – each with varying degrees of force and speed. Furthermore, these tasks can be set to perform in the user’s preferred running order.

Does the FB8000PRO KISS-CUT labels as well as cut-through card?

GYes, the FB8000PRO can produce superb kiss-cutting for sheet labels, and this is a significant benefit of this automated packaging and P.O.S. cutting machine. However, you might be more interested in the ColorCut LC600, which is a dedicated sheet label cutter, designed specifically for this purpose.
