Mimaki USA, a leading manufacturer of wide-format inkjet printers and cutters, has introduced the CFL-605RT. This newest addition is a 20” x 24” multifunction, compact flatbed cutting plotter. Designed with Mimaki’s industry-leading technology, it supports on-demand production with multiple functions including reciprocating, tangential and eccentric cutting, plus creasing for immediate finishing of packaging and prototypes.
The use of digital on-demand UV inkjet printing has increased the requirement for creating original, customized goods in response to an increase in high-mix/low-volume demands in the market, said the OEM. As part of an overall workflow, the CFL-605RT provides a rapid-response solution for production of items such as short-run or customized original goods, samples and package prototyping.
Key features include:

    Reciprocating cutting for substrates up to 10 mm thick, such as foam cushioning materials, sponge or cardboard.
  • Tangential cutting for media up to 2 mm thick, such as synthetic leather, coated cardboard, reflective vinyl, rubber and fluted cardboard.
  • Eccentric cutting for media up to 1 mm thick, such as coated packaging materials, thin polycarbonate sheets, paper and film.
  • Creasing roller for drawing a ruled line that results in precise folding. The creasing roller can be mounted alongside the cutting blade for cutting and creasing without changing tools.
  • Vacuum system for securely holding materials in place. Lightweight, thin or porous materials can be further secured by an overlaid adsorption sheet that enhances vacuum by reducing airflow through the material.

Total solution for package design actualization

With this system, designers and brand managers can achieve packaging design actualization in much less time.
With a compact footprint of 52” x 41”, the CFL-605RT can fit unobtrusively into a design office or studio environment. Integrated casters means it can be moved where needed, and user-adjustable feet ensure stability once placed. A double-insulated vacuum unit operates quietly, on par with standard office equipment. The Mimaki CFL-605RT includes FineCut8 plug-in for Illustrator and CorelDRAW, as well as a two-year warranty.
