B. Cutting
Q: What is the FSC’s cut capacity?
A: The FSC has a vertical height cut capacity of 65" and can cut up to ½" thick materials.
Q: Why are the Production Stops color-coded?
A: The red stop is for sheet aluminum and the aluminum composite material and the silver
stop is for all other material.
Q: How long do the blades and wheels last?
A:
All Fletcher cutting blades and wheels are “Extended Life” blades/wheels. The life of the
cutting edge is directly correlated to the type of material being cut. For instance, cutting
plastic type materials (PVC, corrugated plastics, etc.) tend to self-hone the edge, and will
last hundreds of passes. Conversely, paper-based materials are inherently abrasive, and
will dull a cutting edge faster.
Q: Can I cut horizontally on the FSC?
A: No. The FSC is a vertical substrate cutter with a vertical capacity of 65".
