Film Cutter & Plotter Technologies Questions:
What will a cutter do for me as a restyler in each of these areas: PPF, window tinting, vehicle wraps? That is, how will my business, benefit?
For PPF, tint and partial vehicle wraps, the cutter will act as a separate employee providing consistently accurate work on a regular basis, saving materials and providing an accurate return on investment. Users benefit from a device that lowers their cost of inventory and maximizes their throughput on install jobs. The cutter can work cutting out the patterns (window, hood, wrap design) precisely while the installer is prepping the vehicle. Because all restyling applications require some method of surface prep, the cutter can be an active part of the process and reduce the time to install while providing consistent results for many years.
Standing the Test of Time: Adding Durability with Liquid Clearcoats and Laminates.
“People like to touch,” says Mike Richford of Design Air Graphics. “In my line of work, people can’t just look at things. It’s human nature. They say wow and put their hands all over it. Durability is critical.” An artist by nature and a product of the digital age, Richford uses digital print/cut technology to produce durable powerboat and marine graphics. “When I’m done, people don’t know if my graphics are airbrushed art or printed vinyl,” says Richford. “They look that good!”
Once his graphics are printed and cut, he adds an extra level of protection against abrasion, moisture and UV light with liquid clearcoating or overlaminate films.
The Perfect Setup: File Preparation For Print/Cut Production
As any chef will tell you, the best recipes start with the right ingredients. And in the world of print/cut, the best graphics begin with a great piece of art.
The right artwork can be anything from a simple logo to a complex combination of photography and type. It can be 1/2” tall or 30 feet wide. It should have personality, color, detail, and most important, a definitive shape that takes advantage of the impact of print/cut production.
Four Essential Workflows: A Roadmap To Print/Cut Success
Here at Roland DGA, one of the most defining trends we see for the industry today is the widespread adoption of integrated print/cut technology. Today’s integrated printer/cutters provide unattended printing and contour cutting on a single device. With their integrated design, printer/cutters streamline the production process, improve accuracy, and nearly eliminate the need to reload and reposition graphics, saving untold man hours and reducing costly mistakes.
