What our printers and cutters are used for
Start from the job, not the machine. Each page below begins with the material you work with and ends with the models that handle it — and the ones that don’t.
Cutting
Digital flatbed cutters from TPS and BULLMER cut, crease, route and mark from a design file. No dies.
Furniture and upholstery
Upholstery fabric, leather and cushion foam, cut from the roll or the hide.
Packaging
Cut-and-crease samples and short runs in corrugated and carton board, and foam inserts.
Signs and displays
Print a board on a UV flatbed, then cut foam board, acrylic and vinyl to the printed marks.
Gaskets, composites and technical textiles
Rubber and gasket sheet, carbon and glass fabric, felt.
Printing
UV-LED flatbed, hybrid and roll-to-roll printers from JHF print on rigid board and roll media.
What UV printing prints on
How UV ink cures, which machine type takes which material, and the ink for each.
Printing on glass
Glass and mirror, printed directly on a UV flatbed.
Printing on wood
Wood, plywood and MDF, printed directly on a flatbed or the hybrid.
Interior décor
Glass, wood, tile, wallcoverings and wall art, printed for a room.
Signs and displays
Foam board, PVC, acrylic and aluminum composite — printed, then cut to shape.
Materials
Every material our machines take, in one table: which machine type prints it, which tool and model cuts it, and whether it needs primer.
