De Summa S One-serie is dé betrouwbare en innovatieve oplossing voor al uw snijtoepassingen. Ontworpen met jarenlange expertise en de nieuwste technologieën, biedt deze serie ongeëvenaarde precisie en efficiëntie.
The Summa S One Series combines robust construction, high‑speed drag‑knife cutting, and advanced alignment systems. Designed for signage, vehicle graphics, and print‑&‑cut workflows, they deliver reliable output with sharp contour cuts and excellent tracking.
The Summa S One Series is designed for businesses that demand both reliability and precision in finishing work. For signage shops, vehicle wrap specialists, and print‑&‑cut ateliers, this series offers the tools to reduce waste, speed up workflows, and produce high‑quality contour cut graphics with consistent results. Whether tackling long roll jobs or smaller detailed designs, the S One delivers sharp, clean cuts with minimal operator intervention.
Some of the main customer values:
These cutters are widely used in:
Because of their contour cutting and high accuracy features, they are especially valuable when cutting around printed graphics or producing shapes rather than simple straight cuts.
| USP | Why It Stands Out |
| -------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 600 g cutting force (standard) | Allows cutting of laminated, thick, or multi-layer materials without needing a more expensive tangential head. |
| OPOS Xtra & advanced contour alignment | Improves precision even on jobs with distortion; reads many registration marks; useful for small sticker jobs. |
| Legendary tracking over long rolls | Claims of maintaining ± 0.1 mm accuracy over rolls up to \~8 m in length. Helps reduce reloading and improves consistency. |
| High speed & acceleration | Cuts faster, gets jobs done quicker without sacrificing quality.) |
| Flexible tool options | Blade, pen, thick blade, pounce tools; also features like FlexCut for perforations.) |
| Strong software & connectivity ecosystem | GoSign, CutterControl, plug‑ins, network connections (USB, Ethernet, WiFi) help integrate into modern workflows. |
The FX variant (e.g. S1 D140 FX) differs primarily in cutting force and pinch roller configuration. While standard S One models have up to 600 grams of down‑force, the D140 FX model offers up to 400 grams. Additionally, the FX model has fixed pinch roller positions, which means it supports a set of media widths rather than fully freely adjustable pinch rollers. This makes FX slightly less flexible for minimizing margins on large or awkward media widths, but it may be sufficient (and more cost‑efficient) if your media widths are consistent and you seldom require very large or irregular sizes.
The S One Series uses Summa's OPOS system (Optical Positioning System) including OPOS X and OPOS Xtra. This reads registration marks (barcodes, X‑lines, Y‑lines) and can compensate for distortions like mild shrinkage or stretching, especially important for printed graphics. Tracking accuracy is specified at about ± 0.1 mm over rolls up to ~8 m length (for media widths up to ~760 mm). For wider media or rolls exceeding that length, performance is still good but the guarantee may be reduced. Overall, users can expect very tight contour cuts even on detailed designs.
Choice depends on a few variables:
Yes, to a degree. The standard models with 600 grams down‑force can cut tough media such as laminated vinyl, flock/flex, and even sandblast foils with optional knives in some cases (≈ 0.8 mm thickness). However, these are drag‑knife machines, not true tangential knives, which means very rigid or thick substrates (especially more rigid board or thick plastics) may be more challenging. For those, a tangential or motorised knife system may be more appropriate. But for many signage/flexible media work, the S One performs very well.
Summa provides GoSign software as a base, along with Summa CutterControl. There are plugins for design applications like Adobe Illustrator, CorelDraw, and Mac/PC compatibility. The OPOS system’s barcode job recognition features let you automate contour cutting jobs. Connections via USB, Ethernet and often WiFi (depending on region) enable you to integrate with network workflows. Overall, the S One is well suited to modern print & cut environments.
Maintenance is fairly straightforward. Blade holders are designed so you can quickly swap regular blades, thicker blades, or other tools. Meshing and calibration for OPOS sensors should be kept clean. Grit rollers should be kept free of debris; media sensors and guides cleaned periodically. Spare parts (blades, rollers, etc.) are widely available via Summa and authorised dealers. Also, the drag‑knife mechanism has fewer moving parts than a full tangential head, which often translates into lower maintenance. Manuals provide detailed instructions.
Warranty typically includes parts for a specified period (commonly two years, depending on region). Service support is generally available through Summa’s local or regional dealers. When purchasing through a reputable dealer, check what installation, training, and spare‑parts availability are included. It’s also wise to verify response times for service in your country/region.
WiFi is region‑dependent. In some markets, the hardware is present and requires activation; in others, it's an optional module. It’s best to confirm with your local Summa distributor whether the specific model you’re looking at includes WiFi, or whether it must be added. Even without WiFi, USB and Ethernet are standard and typically adequate for many workflows.
The S One cutters operate with standard global power input: 100‑240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. Ambient operating temperature is recommended between 15‑35 °C. For best performance, ensure stable power supply, clean environment, and adequate ventilation.
Energy draw is moderate; the machines consume more power in cutting than standby, but nothing extreme for a cutter of this class. Consumables include blades (standard, thick, optional special blades), gritted rollers, pinch rollers, media sensors. Blade wear depends on media type and usage: adhesive vinyls vs. laminated or rough surfaces will wear blades faster. Using proper settings (pressure, speed) and keeping blades sharp maximizes their lifetime. Also, precise cutting reduces material wastage, which in many cases is a larger cost than the blades themselves.
