Summa Launches Dedicated Vinyl Cutter for DTF Print & Cut Workflow

Summa has introduced a dedicated vinyl cutter for DTF applications. The cutter is designed to prevent the scratches or roller marks that typically occur when transporting PET film.

Direct-to-film (DTF) printing is transforming the textile embellishment industry, offering a seamless solution for custom fabrics like shirts, pillows, and bags. However, cutting DTF proves challenging and often requires specialised equipment.

Summa’s S Class 3-DTF Bundle is a vinyl cutter setup engineered specifically for DTF applications. The bundle includes the S3 TC75 vinyl cutter, a frictionless roll feed, a roll-up system, and the advanced GoSign Pro Pack. This bundle combines advanced technology and unmatched precision to meet the unique challenges of cutting PET film.

“We designed the S Class 3-DTF Bundle with the needs of DTF users in mind. Every part in this bundle is tailored to ensure accuracy, efficiency, and reliability”, says Randi Kerkaert, product manager at Summa, “It is the ultimate solution for anyone working with PET film in DTF applications.”

The bundle includes:
•    The S3 TC75 Vinyl Cutter features a Performance Cutting Head. It is equipped with tangential cutting technology, which is the preferred choice for cutting PET film, as it is fast and precise.
•    A Frictionless Roll Feed prevents damage during cutting by minimising friction, as contact between the media and the roll is avoided.
•    A Roll Up System that efficiently handles the PET film and keeps it in roll format after cutting.
•    The GoSign Pro Pack Software is included with the bundle to unlock the full functionality of the S 3 TC75's integrated camera. 

Additionally, it can automate cutting processes by using its automatic barcode functionality.

Summa CEO Stijn Henderickx adds, "The S Class 3-DTF Bundle reflects our commitment to precision and performance, bridging the gap between the sign and display and textile markets. This bundle is a game-changer for DTF professionals looking to optimise their workflows and deliver unmatched quality."

The S Class 3 DTF-Bundle, including the S3 TC75 vinyl cutter, frictionless roll feed, roll-up system, and Pro Pack software, is available right now with Summa partners worldwide and will be on display at ISA Sign Expo Las Vegas in April and FESPA Berlin in May.
