dee10w 29 Posted October 11, 2013 hi all just a quickie question, thinking about getting a graptec fc4100, what are peoples views on this machine please, Basically we have a Mimaki jv33 and would like to pair the two so we can contour cut or images, is this feesable with this cutter and is it a pain to set up to contour cut with? and any problems you may have heard about with these would be appreciated Thanks again Dee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted October 11, 2013 I owned one once and didn't even know it could contour cut - as far as accuracy I would say it was the most accurate cutting plotter I have ever had . . . and the heaviest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe im incorrect, so you say you never saw a function for contour cutting on the 4100? Dont wanna travel 5hrs to find its no good for contours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mb20music 760 Posted October 11, 2013 I am pretty sure it doesn't have the ARMS system for reading registration marks for contour cutting. I believe the first Graphtecs to have the ARMS were the FC7000 models. To contour cut with the machine you would need to use Flexi software. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
