Why the FC9000-100 over the other sizes

The 42" cutting width is the sweet spot for most sign shops — wide enough for vehicle door graphics, medium banners and full-width decals, compact enough to fit most production floor layouts. Step up from the FC9000-75 30" when your work regularly exceeds 30" media. Step up to the FC9000-140 54" or FC9000-160 64" when wide-format vehicle wraps or full 54"+ media are a regular part of your workflow.

Key Features

The FC9000 series features a newly developed feeding system and cutting head delivering superior cutting quality across both thin and thick materials. ARMS 8.0 optical registration mark sensing enables precise contour cutting on printed media without manual alignment. The Datalink Barcode system automates job management for high-volume production runs.

Cutting Master 5 software included — direct plugin for Adobe Illustrator and CorelDRAW, no file conversion required.

Applications & Uses

Is the Graphtec FC9000 worth the investment?

For sign shops and decorators cutting more than a few hours per day, yes. The FC9000's newly developed cutting head and ARMS 8.0 sensor deliver consistent results on difficult materials — reflective sheeting, contour-cut prints, thick vinyl — where lower-tier cutters fail. Most professional sign shops report the machine pays for itself within the first year of production use. The FC9000 series is revered worldwide for its dependability and precision across both printed and unprinted materials.
