Utilizing a flatbed table and digital cutting technology, the DocuCutter DPC-400 Digital Die Cutter produces short-run packaging, custom-shaped cards and labels without physical dies required. The DPC-400 cuts, kiss cuts, scores and perforates a range of substrates including paper, laminates, adhesives and synthetic stocks up to 400 gsm. It’s an affordable and versatile solution for prototyping your designs and sample productions.
Utilizing the DPC Controller software, the triple tooling head follows the lines sketched on the cut file to finish applications into any shape desired. Media is held in place on the flatbed through a suction zone below the conveyor belt as the tooling head moves throughout the sheet.
The DPC-400 comes included with four cutting tools and a scoring wheel, and up to 3 tools can be added in the tooling head. Set them to cut intricate shapes, kiss cut labels and stickers, and score fold lines to avoid toner cracking on packaging and folded pieces.
Create the cut file in vector programs such as Adobe Illustrator and CorelDRAW to define the cuts, kiss cuts, scores and perforations desired. Export the cut file in DXF, PLT or HPG format then upload and save it on the DPC Controller software (PC sold separately). Prepare the printed artwork file by adding registration marks on each corner of the sheet for accuracy as well as a QR code to instantly retrieve the cut file when scanned.
Job preparation functions, including the application of registration marks and QR code, can be automatically performed using Fiery JobFlow. This EFI integration enables you to create a timesaving workflow that reduces errors and downtime.
Initiate operation with a touch of a button. As each sheet is transported onto the flatbed, the CCD registration system will read the QR code and pull up the matching cut file on the DPC Controller. Job changeovers are automatic, increasing turnaround times. The CCD will also read all four registration marks to ensure accurate finishing while compensating for any image shifting that may have occurred.
With a stack height of 3.9”, the DPC-400 maintains its productivity. Each sheet is vacuum fed with the air knife aiding in separation. The feed tray elevates as sheets are fed and it can be reloaded without interrupting operation.
