Description

New manufacturing technologies, along with the latest engineering advancements, have allowed the Graphtec Cutting Plotter to make an unprecedented move forward in the industry. High performance features have been added to the new series yet its competitive pricing remains.


With the world’s fastest throughput performance and superb accuracy, the new FC8600 series accommodates the most demanding cutting and plotting projects and provides users with the versatility needed for a wide variety of applications.

These cutters can easily handle more than five different types of jobs:

  • Vinyl Heat Transfer CuttingVinyl Heat Transfer Cutting - Design a layout, using graphics and/or lettering on your computer. When you send the job to the vinyl cutter, it outline cuts the entire job. You remove the layout from the vinyl cutter, weed it (weeding is easily removing the vinyl that is not part of the graphic) and apply the design to the garment with a heat press. 
    "How is that done?"

  • Heat Transfer Cutting: Opaque FilmsHeat Transfer Cutting (opaque film)- Print a graphic, along with registration marks, on opaque heat transfer paper with an inkjet printer. Remove the completed print from your printer and place in the cutter. The CE-6000-60 "reads" the registration marks and perfectly outline cuts the graphic. Our Alpha Gold Dark or Silver Opaque paper works perfectly with the cutter. "How is that done?"

  • Heat Transfer Cutting  clear filmHeat Transfer Cutting (clear film for white shirts) – Print graphics and even words, along with registration marks, on Alpha Double Green heat transfer paper with an inkjet printer. Remove the completed print from your printer and place in the cutter. The CE-6000-60 “reads” the registration marks and perfectly outline cuts the graphic. “How Is That Done?” Important Note – A great many heat transfer papers for white shirts cannot be cut and weeded (peeled) like Alpha Double Green.

  • Vinyl Sign Cutting - The cutter easily handles cutting sign vinyl (Note: The back of sign vinyl is already sticky and is applied with pressure. Heat transfer vinyl becomes sticky, when applied with heat). If you ever start cutting sign vinyl, the big cutting area is also a plus.

  • Etching and Sandblast Resist Stencil Cutting - The stencil material used in this process is very similar to vinyl sign material and cuts very nicely.

  • With a cutting force of 20 to 600 grams, you can process diamond grade, high-intensity reflective film, sandblast resist rubber, automotive window & paint protection films, self-adhesive vinyl, Amberlith™ and Rubylith™, among other media types.

Why do I have to have a separate graphics program, to run the cutter?

Neither inkjet printers nor vinyl cutter plotters can move, without being told what to do and how. That's the function of all programs.

Graphtec provides two excellent choices: if you already know CorelDRAW or Illustrator, then use it, along with the free software plug-ins and you are good to go.


Our Final Thoughts - We are very impressed with the FC-8600 series cutting plotters. This Graphtec cutter plotter will serve you well and grow with you.

If you are serious, but the budget is a bit limited, then consider the Graphtec cutter plotter CE6000-40 or the CE6000-60 cutting plotters which are smaller and cheaper with all the software choices of the big cutters.
