Features

Industry-leading features and optional add-ons.

Multifunctional Head

The multifunctional head holds up to three modules at one time. The central unit houses a positioning laser and an integrated camera system for fast and accurate contour-cutting mark recognition.

Powerful Tangential Module

Offers a vertical force of 10 kg and corresponds to a wide range of matching tools. Each tool has a barcode identifier that ensures automatic recognition and parameter settings.

Media Advance Clamps

Pneumatically-driven media advance clamps hold the material down while pulling it forward in order to work continuously in panels or multiple jobs.

Barcode

The barcode workflow automatically identifies the job to obtain the necessary cutting data from the computer. Scanning the job happens automatically by the built-in camera of the Summa F Series system or by a hand scanner, depending on the selected workflow.

F-Performance

This mode is especially designed to enhance the speed / performance of digital finishing operations on our flatbed finishing systems by up to 40%. Especially within large industrial environments, this F-performance mode will prove its worth and give your overall workflow a serious boost.

Safety Pack

The safety pack assures maximum security. A laser beam systems surrounds the table and controls the motion area. The unit can then work safely, using full speed while in production mode. When put into safety mode, the machine settings can be securely adjusted.

ADC

The Automated Depth Control (ADC) simplifies tool, knife or bit changes significantly. The ADC measures the tip of the knife or bit accurately and sets the down position of the tool to the level of the table. This ensures the best settings can always be used to get the most optimal cut quality.

PackLib

The PLM PackLib for Summa is a library of resizable standard packaging models. The most popular packaging standards FEFCO (corrugated cardboard) and ECMA (folding carton) are included. Also a few POS display designs and solid cardboards (furniture) designs are available.

Summa GoProduce Software

The user-friendly software GoProduce is part of Summa's GoSuite platform and is developed for the F Series' operator to handle jobs in a most straightforward and easy way. The software includes an extended range of important functionalities and a modern interface with improved navigation, which will enable users to find and operate functions as quickly and intuitively as possible.

Available in six sizes to dramatically increase productivity.

Available Tools & Modules

Drag Module

The Drag Module is a module which allows you to make notations with pens or kiss cut a wide range of materials with a pressure of 600 g of down force, using a drag knife.

Tangential Module

The powerful tangential module offers a vertical force of 10kg and corresponds to a wide range of matching tools. Each of the many and varied tools have a barcode ID that ensures automatic recognition and parameter settings.

Electric Oscillating Module

Ideal for cutting soft and medium density materials such as foam and corrugated board up to 18 mm thick, the Electronic Oscillating Tool is driven by a 1 kW electric motor, producing up to 12,000 rpm and moves a knife up and down over a stroke of 1 mm.

Pneumatic Oscillating Tool

The Pneumatic Oscillating Tool, powered by compressed air, moves a knife up and down over a stroke of 8 mm. The robust construction of the tool makes it suitable to cut thick material, such as honeycomb board, corrugated board and foam board

Kiss Cut Tool

With mechanically-controlled knife pressure, this tool is specifically designed for kiss cutting material down to its liner up to 1.2 mm thick. This tool also includes an adjustable nose piece for precise depth control.

Single Edge Cutout Tool

The Single Edge Cutout Tool is designed for detailed cutting through material up to 6 mm thick. A spring-loaded gliding disc allows cutting of very precise details and can be fixed at a set depth.

Double Edge Cutout Tool

The Double Edge Cutout Tool ensures minimal wear when cutting through rigid material up to 6 mm thick. A spring-loaded gliding disc allows cutting of very precise details and can be fixed at a set depth.

Creasing Tools

Several Creasing Wheels, designed in different depths and radius sizes, are available for creasing and scoring paper, cartons, polypropylene and PVC material.

V Cut Tools

The V-Cut Tools are available in 5 angles and are designed to cut a V-shaped groove in rigid sandwich and foam composite boards up to 27 mm thick, depending on the material’s density.

Routing Module

The Router Module is capable of milling most widely-used solid boards in the graphic and sign industry, such as hard foam PVC, acrylic and aluminum covered boards.

High Frequency Router Module

The HF Routing Module is equipped with a high-frequency spindle and higher power output, which allow higher processing speeds and a smoother finishing of rigid substrates.
