Graphtec GB upgrades its CA/CAM software options

Graphtec GB is now supplying as standard its own-brand Graphtec Pro Studio and Graphtec Pro Studio PLUS software programs.

Leading provider of digital cutting and print finishing solutions to the sign and graphics industry, Graphtec GB is now supplying as standard its own-brand Graphtec Pro Studio and Graphtec Pro Studio PLUS software programs.

These are based on the widely specified FlexiSIGN family of software developed by global specialist SAi for which Graphtec GB is a preferred business partner and exclusive UK and Ireland distributor. The software is included as part of the package on Graphtec cutting plotters and offers compatibility with over 30 different popular file formats, including AI, CMX, EPS and DXF.

In addition to basic tool functions, the software provides more advanced options such as shape editing and auto trace and weld combined. Key features include automatic registration mark creation, tiling, an ability to create multiple copies of the same object for cutting, the addition of weed and border cut lines, tool assignment and condition settings (including cutting force and speed). Graphtec Pro Studio also supports the latest

Version 6 of Graphtec’s proprietary ARMS (Automatic Registration Mark Sensing) system for optimum material alignment and cutting accuracy.

The complementary Graphtec Pro Studio PLUS program provides additional and more advanced tool functions for increased productivity. These include the ability to transform graphics and characters, enable automatic sequence numbering, bar code, QR and serialised number creation, power nesting and template production for rhinestone applications.

Graphtec GB also now supplies Cutting Master 4 as a plug-in software option for Adobe Illustrator and CorelDraw graphics suites and EnRoute V6 that provides 2D and 3D routing functions. Available in four different editions, comprising a suite of over 40 design and production tools, it is considered to be the most advanced software of its kind so far developed by SAi.
