Summa F Series F1625 1600mm x 2500mm Flatbed Cutter

  • Description

    SUMMA F-SERIES Flatbed Cutter banner

    Summa F Series F1625 1600mm x 2500mm Flatbed Cutter:

    Precision-engineered 1600 x 2500 mm flatbed cutting solution developed specifically for wide-format printing professionals. Designed to deliver consistent performance across both rigid and roll media, it offers exceptional modular versatility in a compact footprint. With a working area that supports full board processing, the F1625 is ideal for signage, packaging, displays and other demanding production applications.

    Its robust design supports a wide range of substrates including vinyl, foam board, acrylics, PVC and ACM. The cutter integrates seamlessly into existing production workflows, requiring no additional feeding systems for full boards. Operators benefit from improved productivity and reduced downtime through features such as Automatic Device Calibration, Automatic Tool Recognition and a smart Tandem Workflow that enables loading and unloading during active cutting.

    The F1625 is powered by Summa’s intuitive GoProduce Flatbed Edition software. This production suite automates material recognition, barcode job identification and tool settings, while camera-based mark detection improves accuracy. Smart sequencing and job sorting features further reduce operator input and minimise errors. Unmanned operation for roll-based workflows is also possible, enabling round-the-clock performance in high-demand environments.

    True to the F Series platform, the F1625 offers a modular design capable of housing up to three tools simultaneously. It supports kiss-cutting, creasing, routing and other advanced processes using Summa’s professional tool range. The system allows users to expand capabilities without replacing the base unit, ensuring long-term scalability. With an optimal balance of price, performance and automation, the F1625 is a future-proof investment for growing print businesses.

    The powerful vacuum hold-down system keeps materials securely in place, ensuring accurate cuts with minimal waste. The F1625 features integrated barcode and camera recognition technology, allowing for automatic detection of registration marks and precise alignment of cutting paths. This minimises setup time and reduces the risk of errors, making the machine ideal for both custom and high-volume production. An optional conveyor system enables continuous processing, enhancing efficiency for high-volume production environments. The cutter is compatible with Summa’s GoProduce software and third-party design applications, ensuring smooth workflow integration and ease of use.

  • Modules & Tools

    SUMMA F-SERIES tools

    The F Series models feature a multi-functional cutting head capable of holding up to three cutting modules simultaneously. This allows the system to efficiently handle cutting jobs that require multiple techniques or to switch quickly between tasks involving different materials. The integrated camera system and LED pointer in the central unit ensure precise and rapid mark recognition for flawless operation.

    SUMMA F-SERIES tools

    Each module can accommodate a variety of tools, blades and bits, allowing you to select the ideal tool for cutting your specific material and achieving the highest quality results. Every tool features a barcode ID for automatic recognition and parameter pre-sets. As your business expands, you can easily extend your tool range to meet new production demands.
