FLATBED CUTTING PLOTTER

PURCELL flatbed cutting plotters cut rigid and semi-rigid sheet materials that roll-fed cutters cannot handle — acrylic, PVC boards, cardboard, corrugated packaging, leather, foam board and more. With a flat work table and a moving cutting head, these machines hold materials flat and stable for high-precision contour cutting, kiss-cutting and creasing in a single pass.

Flatbed systems are the workhorse of signage shops, packaging studios, model makers and small manufacturers. They handle everything from A3-sized prototypes to large-format sheets, with software-controlled blade depth, speed and pressure that adapt to the material. For roll-fed production, PURCELL also offers roll-to-roll flatbed systems with vacuum hold-down and camera registration for continuous label and packaging runs.

What a flatbed cutter unlocks for your business

• Wider material range: cut rigid sheets, thick cardstock, foam, leather and flexible films with one machine.
• Precision prototyping: packaging mockups, product models and architectural models with ±0.01 mm repeatability.
• Signage production: letters, panels and displays from PVC, acrylic and corrugated board.
• Kiss-cut and crease: score fold lines and cut adhesive-backed materials without cutting through the liner.
• Vacuum hold-down: secure irregular or thin sheets for consistent cutting across the whole bed.

Whether your work is rigid sheet cutting, packaging prototyping or continuous roll production, a PURCELL flatbed cutting plotter gives you the flexibility to take on jobs other shops turn away.
