Roland DG CAMM-1 GS-24
Wide format solutions developer Roland DG says it is introducing its ‘most advanced desktop cutter ever,’ the Camm-1 GS-24, with increased cutting power, precision and reliability. The company says the new machine features a robust build, redesigned cutting carriage and blade holder and 10x overlap cutting capability. Roland says it has 350g of downforce (boosted by 40 per cent from the previous generation) to allow users to cut a variety of materials from 50 to 700mm wide, including thick, dense substrates.

John Wall, president and director of Roland DG Australia, says, “Continuous research and an in-depth understanding of the needs and wants of the market have led to the development of our new GS-24 – the most productive, easy to use desktop cutter in Camm-1 history.
“Users, even those who are not familiar with digital cutting, will find it simple to achieve results with the GS-24 over a range of applications.” Vinyl, paint mask, twill, heat transfers, magnetic materials and card stock can be cut at speeds of up to 500mm per second to create vehicle graphics, signs and decals, decorated apparel and specialty graphics. Perforated cutting capability means it can also produce labels and decals for individual sale. Operators can monitor and control the machine via a newly designed LCD panel, and Roland says a precise blade groove on the cutter’s apron allows for easy manual cutting. A roller base is included to keep feeds straight for a precise cut. The bundled Roland CutStudio software lets you enlarge, reduce, reposition, rotate and mirror images, with an improved tiling function for cutting oversized images. TrueType fonts can be cut without the need for outlining. CutStudio supports BMP, JPG, STX, AL and EPS file formats, as well as the ability to cut directly from Adobe Illustrator or CorelDraw.
