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.

Advanced Safety System
The advanced Safety System, delivered with all F Series models, guarantees a safe work environment and is compliant to worldwide health and safety requirements. Thanks to the placement of the system on the top beam, the F Series can be accessed easily, which results in higher production efficiency.

ADC
The ADC automatically sets the knife depth and the orientation of the tool. The tip of the knife or bit is measured accurately and the down position of the tool is set to table's level, guaranteeing a flawless cut. Both the ADC left and ADC right is included with every new F Series flatbed cutter.

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.

Conveyor extension to minimize downtime
The conveyor extension, optional on the F1612 flatbed cutter, processes cut designs that are much larger than the actual cutting area. While the machine cuts the next part, the first cutout parts can be removed safely at the extended front.

Accelerated workflow with F-Performance
Increase the performance of your F Series flatbed system with almost 40%. Advantages include faster up, down and turning movements of the cutting head, which will be most remarkable when using the Kiss-cutting tool.

Heavy-Duty Roll Support
The optional Heavy-Duty Roll Support allows a straight throughput of print rolls onto the wide-format flatbed sizes, F1832, F3220 and F3232. For the processing of heavy banner material and light to non-stretchable wide textile rolls, this roll support will facilitate the operator’s life considerably.

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.
Media Handling has never been easier
The extensive range of media handling solutions helps you to work precise and more efficiently.
- The advanced Safety System guarantees a safe work environment. Convenient placement on the top beam ensures easy accessibility of the flatbed to remove cut parts.
- Media Advance Clamps hold the material down while pulling it forward in order to work continuously in panels or multiple jobs.
- The vacuum pump with sound absorber holds the material in place during the job while the selector adjusts the vacuum automatically to match the working area.
- The Conveyor belt & Roll support allow the cutting and creasing of large lengths of flexible material to large production runs.
- The working area can be divided into two separate zones, a cut only zone and an Operator Zone where materials can be removed with ease.
- The optional Heavy-Duty Roll Support allows a straight throughput of heavy banner material, non-stretchable wide textile rolls and lightly stretchable materials onto the wide-format flatbed sizes F1832, F3220 and F3232. Video Heavy-Duty Roll Support
