Product Overview
The Summa S One Series combines professional cutting accuracy, intelligent contour-cutting technology and dependable media handling in an affordable drag knife vinyl cutter built for daily production. From vinyl lettering and heat transfer graphics to printed decals, labels and laminated graphics, the S One is designed to handle the core cutting applications sign shops, apparel decorators and print businesses rely on every day.
Available in D60, D120, D140 and D160 models, the S One Series lets you choose the working width that best matches your equipment, applications and production volume while maintaining the same core Summa cutting technology across the lineup.
The S One Series features Summa's proven OPOS X Optical Positioning System for accurate contour cutting of printed graphics. OPOS reads registration marks around your printed artwork and automatically aligns the cut path to compensate for positioning and media distortion.
For print-and-cut workflows, this means greater confidence when finishing decals, stickers, labels and other digitally printed graphics while helping reduce wasted prints and time-consuming rework.
Summa's barcode functionality helps automate recurring print-and-cut production. The cutter can identify compatible jobs from a printed barcode and retrieve the corresponding cut data, helping reduce operator intervention when processing multiple printed jobs.
For shops regularly contour cutting batches of printed graphics, automation helps turn the cutter into a more efficient part of the overall production workflow.
Summa FlexCut makes it possible to combine conventional kiss cutting with controlled through-cutting. This allows individual decals, stickers and graphics to be separated from the surrounding media without requiring a separate trimming process.
Use contour cutting for the graphic itself and FlexCut for the outside perimeter to create individually finished decals directly from compatible roll media.
The S One delivers up to 600 grams of knife pressure, giving it the versatility to process much more than conventional sign vinyl.
From everyday adhesive vinyl and heat transfer films to laminated graphics and compatible specialty materials, adjustable cutting pressure lets operators dial in the cutter for the media being processed.
With cutting speeds up to 44 inches per second diagonally and acceleration up to 3G, the S One Series combines precision with the speed required for everyday commercial production.
That performance makes the S One equally comfortable producing a single custom graphic or processing longer runs of decals, lettering and apparel designs.
Accurate cutting starts with reliable media handling. Integrated media rollers and roll flanges help load roll media straight and keep it properly aligned as it moves through the cutter.
Summa specifies guaranteed tracking performance up to approximately 26 feet for media under 30 inches wide and 13 feet for media wider than 30 inches, providing dependable performance for longer production jobs.
The S One cutting head is designed to make switching between different production tools fast and straightforward. Depending on the application and installed accessories, the cutting head can accommodate:
This versatility allows one cutter to support multiple production processes without turning routine tool changes into unnecessary downtime.
Summa GoSign software is included with the S One Series and provides a dedicated production environment for managing cutting and print-and-cut workflows.
GoSign helps operators prepare jobs, manage cutter settings and create efficient production workflows while integrating the cutter into a professional sign and graphics environment.
The S One Series supports Ethernet and USB connectivity, allowing the cutter to integrate easily into professional production environments. Wi-Fi connectivity is also available depending on region and configuration.
The S One Series is designed for shops that want professional Summa accuracy and reliability with an efficient drag knife cutting system. For the majority of everyday vinyl, apparel and print-and-cut applications, the S One provides the speed, contour-cutting technology and media handling needed for serious production without requiring a more advanced tangential cutting platform.
Whether you're adding your first professional cutter or increasing finishing capacity alongside an existing wide-format printer, the S One provides a scalable platform with multiple widths to fit your workflow.
USCutter supports complete sign, apparel and print-and-cut workflows with professional vinyl cutters, wide-format printers, laminators, media, blades, application tools and production supplies.
