The DYSS cutting table has a robust cutting head.
Macclesfield point of sale specialist Fastrak Retail has acquired a state-of-the-art DYSS X7 1630T die cutting table, enabling it to bring a specialised task in-house and ensure the quality of work.
The DYSS X7 has a 3050 mm x 1650 mm static bed capable of cutting on materials such as foamex, honeycomb board, Perspex, PETG and corrugated cardboard of all types and thicknesses.
Commenting upon the acquisition, Fastrak managing director John Barrett said: ‘Customer demands told us that it was time for us to buy our own cutting table. We fully reviewed the market for a machine that could meet the diverse needs of our business in terms of bed size, design capability through the supporting software packages, and the rigidity and ability to cut a wide scope of materials. Upon review, the DYSS X7 fulfilled all our needs and exceeded the packages offered by alternate vendors.’
The DYSS table quickly proved its worth, creating a semi -permanent cardboard display unit with an initial production run of 500 for the SUGRU brand of self-setting adhesive rubber products.
‘The SUGRU job was an ideal example of why we bought the DYSS X7,’ said Mr Barrett. ‘The combination of the DYSS and its KASEMAKE CAD package enabled us to design the packaging, the print layout and also conduct the cutting and creasing of the display packages in-house. Our shop floor team could then fold the packaging into completed units ready for shipping to the retailers. Without the DYSS, we wouldn’t have been able to do the job, or it would have been completed by a third party.’
Another job has been for Swan, the manufacturer of smoking supplies and matches, to produce one thousand 2 mm thick PETG PoS display units for its retail outlets. The DYSS table’s AG/CAD K-Cut Vision system came into its own to ensure precision cutting with every product, eliminating the time consuming and labour intensive task of positioning each and every job on the cutting bed.
