Fotoba Digitrim 64 Earlier this year, MACtac® Graphic Products made the investment in a new asset that has made our lives much easier and has the potential to make yours easier as well. For every trade show, open house and new product launch, we put together printed samples, which can be very time-consuming to create. Most of you have no doubt seen one of these samples at a trade show, or from your sales person, as they make great sales tools. For some samples, we outsource and utilize a third party to produce these printed samples but often we are making shorter runs for an event, so we use our in-house print lab. In this case, we have to print, cure, laminate and cut out each 8”x10” sample.

The cutting is the most labor intensive and time consuming. This machine cuts media up to 20-mil thick on a horizontal. When printing your media, you can select “Print Fotoba Marks” in most rip programs, and two black lines will surround each image and can be read through most laminates. You simply feed the material into the machine and press start. Once everything is cut horizontally, you then retrieve the strips from the collection basket and feed them through vertically to make the cross cuts. Even though it is manually fed, it can correct the blade up to 2.5 degrees in either direction, which means you rarely have to start it over.
The infrared sensors are very accurate and rarely miscue, resulting in straight and true samples that are all the same size. This Fotoba Digitrim 64 has cut our sample creation time almost in half, since we were doing it the old-fashioned way with a slide cutter and large paper choppers. After using this for three months, we have produced thousands of well-trimmed samples and don’t have to rely on the free time of a group of people. One person can operate this machine, saving hours of labor.
