Summa F Series flatbed cutters validated for HP Latex R Printer Series

HP has validated Summa’s F Series flatbed cutters for the HP Latex R Printer Series – the printers and cutters complement each other perfectly and can bring customer workflows to an exciting new level.

Stunning colours on rigid, or even flexible materials can be achieved with the HP Latex R Printer Series, and the same level of quality attained when the job is finished with Summa’s F Series precision cutters.

HP says that the aim of the HP and Summa Partnership is to enhance the value proposition and competitive advantage of HP Latex and Summa with solutions for the E2E printing environment beyond the printer.

 “This year, Summa accomplished its goal to improve the synergy with the large format digital printer market, by launching two large-format flatbeds matching the 3.2 m working width of printers perfectly. In combination with Summa’s GoProduce software, the F Series ensures the highest versatility to process all kinds of material and offer numerous high-end solutions to the sign making, textile, and digital print industries. Even more so, with the HP Partnership and validation for the F Series with the HP Latex R Printer Series, this pursuit of excellent synergy between printers and cutters has reached new heights,” says Summa’s Executive Director, Wim Maes.

Both the printer and the cutter are made to deliver the highest quality with optimum lead times, but in order to make a significant difference in the time needed to process the order, it is indispensable for both operations to be perfectly coordinated. This is exactly why collaborations, such as this print and cut solution, are so powerful to optimise workflows, save valuable time and deliver products that meet the needs of the customer in time.

Since the materials printed on the HP R Printer Series can be processed flawlessly on the Summa F Series, no application will be too bold a challenge to create.

Practical similarities can be found, such as the dimensions of rigid and flexible materials that fit on the flatbed cutters, as well as the types of material that the flatbed system can easily handle. This is possible because high-quality modules can house multiple tools to efficiently apply multiple cutting techniques in one single job.
