CFX does not burn the cross section like laser cut, and a satisfactory finish is obtained.Since it has a dragonfly reading function, there is no slight positional deviation when cutting.Therefore, it is also useful for cutting small printed matters such as seals, stickers, and product mounting paper. The range of in-house manufacturing has expanded and it has become possible to meet various requests.
