MultiCam® MultiVision Digital Registration System Ensures Speed and Cutting Accuracy

MultiCam® Inc.’s MultiVision digital registration system enhances tool path generation for wide-format sign and graphic applications. It is standard on the MultiCam High-Speed Digital Express® and optional on the Graph-X-Cutter™ CNC cutting machines. This high-resolution digital camera/software-based program recognizes media registration marks visually and compensates for skew, distortion, and image drift automatically. Just add reference marks (fiducials) to your print file and output to the printer. Place the finished media on a MultiCam CNC machine, and the MultiVision digital camera searches for registration marks automatically. Then the software compares actual printed images to the original file, makes the necessary tool path adjustments, and instructs the machine to produce the corrected cuts with a 0.001″ tolerance. High-speed fiducial capture reduces registration times by approximately 33 percent. Learn more about MultiCam’s CNC cutting solutions at www.multicam.com or call 972-929-4070.
