The Graphtec FCX4000 Series stands as an ideal and affordable flatbed cutting solution, offering high-quality cutting performance achieved through enhanced rigidity in both the sliding mechanism and driving system for superior accuracy.Designed for small to medium print-on-demand jobs, the FCX4000 utilizes an electrostatic system to securely hold media, with the popular 60ES model efficiently accommodating four A3+ sheets for heightened productivity. This plotter is highly suitable for high-precision and medium-heavy material crafting jobs, effortlessly handling intricate designs on materials ranging from vinyl and photo-masking films to foam, cardboard, and sandblast resist rubber, thanks to its maximum force of 600gf and maximum cutting speed of 29.5 inches/second. As the most economical option for cutting materials too thick or hard for traditional roll-feed plotters, the FCX4000 provides intuitive operation via its new control panel, a 3.7-inch LCD screen, and integrated USB/Barcode functionality.
