FLEXA, the Italy-based visual communication and digital printing solutions provider, has introduced Miura Katana, its new automatic XY cutter for wallpaper with vertical cutting correction.
The machine is equipped with a revolutionary cutting system, which allows the cutting of the panels of the wallpaper, avoiding the white line visible at the junction point once they are coupled. This exclusive technology removes the need for touch-ups to eliminate unpleasant white lines during installation, which are very visible on prints with dark colours.
Engineered with precision, Miura Katana features an advanced combination of two edge control systems, dual traction rollers, and dual motorised blades. This exclusive cutting technology delivers unparalleled accuracy, ensuring that every cut is perfectly aligned. The double sensor of the automatic vertical cutting correction achieves a reading accuracy of 0.05 mm, ideal for cutting wallpaper, for perfect joints of patterns.
The lengthwise shear cutters are equipped with a high resolution digital display that indicates the exact positioning. Also, the fine positioning of the cutting blades allows a high-quality finish cut, a detail that makes the cut even more precise.
The cutter is highly flexible accommodating a variety of wallpaper, including Alcantara, fibreglass, linen, organic nonwoven fabric made with plant-based raw materials, TNT, viscose, waterproof, woven plant fibres, and many more.
Additionally, Miura Katana can be connected to the internet network for remote assistance for fast and efficient diagnostics.
