(L-R) Sticky Media managing director Charlie Bukovets with CWE managing director Doug Gilbertson
Warwickshire-based Sticky Media Signs and Graphics has made an investment in its in-house finishing, with the purchase of a Summa F1612 flatbed cutter from City and West End Solutions (CWE).
Sticky Media pride themselves on being branding solution providers working on event builds, shop fitting, vehicle graphics, outdoor and indoor promotion, long and short term signage, event work and display systems.
Managing director Charlie Bukovets said, ‘We’ve had a very productive first quarter to 2014, during which we expanded our range of HP digital latex printers so we can now print up to 3 m wide and quicker too, to give us the leading edge against our competitors with compelling service.
‘The flexibility and capacity of the Summa F1612 flatbed cutter will enable us to produce a diverse range of branding solutions and keep up with ever-more challenging and sophisticated client briefs.
‘We hope the new Summa in conjunction with our HP Latex printers will also help us expand further into creating anything from a huge outdoor screen for a theme park, through to large P.O.S projects for major car dealership networks, with the superior contour cutting and print quality.’
The Summa F series flatbed cutting tables are capable of cutting sheet and rigid materials as well as roll stock up to 165 cm wide. Up to three tools can be inserted at any one time, and the automatic tool recognition, combined with digital and mechanical depth and pressure control, ensures precision cutting on a wide variety of materials.
The drag module and its integrated camera system allows fast and accurate contour cutting of printed flexible or rigid substrate materials.
