Don’t be scared by the name “i-cut machine,” it’s actually pretty safe when it comes to precisely cutting a print project. Our i-cut machine is one of the many tools that makes Alexander’s Print Advantage exceptional. Why? When a customer has a vision, they only needed one source to make it happen…us!
A i-cut machine makes things easier
Ever wanted to create something but didn’t know how in the world you would cut it? When we print out a sheet of post cards, posters, even wood or foam prints, we use the i-cut to slice and dice them. That means no matter the dimensions, our machine can make precise cuts for something as big as 5′ x 10′ or as small as confetti. We’ve made projects for Franklin Covey, TCBY, trade-show booths even stand-up displays. It’s pretty much our do-everything slicer that takes cutting to a whole new level.
The precision is fascinating
You might be asking yourself, how does the machine know where to cut? The dots of course! Each project we place under the blade of the i-cut machine is covered in black circles that direct the machine where to go. First, the computer finds a corner dot with the help of an employee. Then, since the other marks are always in the same spot, the machine scans the rest of the project with a light, searching and finding the remaining key indicating circles.
See all those pink lines? That is part of the design process. We can help design your project and decide exactly where we want those cuts to ensure an excellent final project. Can you imagine going at that with scissors?
