Summa - Multicopy

The following features, which were previously included in the legacy VisualCut option, are now included in annual CalderaRIP subscriptions and perpetual licenses with CalderaCare.

Partners and resellers should consult the Partners Portal for details; end-users can find information on our website.

This feature allows multiple copies of the same job to be cut sequentially without barcode detection.

It can be used with rolls on S Class series cutters, or with sheets on the Summa S One series, which can be equipped with a sheet stacker.

This feature is available in the VisualCut Interface.

Configuration

To make Multicopy feature available, in the Settings area, set Positioning field with:

  • Single with marks
  • or None

Multicopy feature is not compatible with Automatic Repeat positioning as they are conflicted features.

  Info

You can reset the number of already done copies on a selection of jobs with Reset copies button.

 

Multicopy With a Roll

  1. Multicopy field: select Roll.
  2. Repetition: you have 2 choices.
    • Remaining copies: uses the difference between the expected number of copies and the already done number of copies in the jobs queue. Example: if there is a total of 7 copies, and there is already 2 copies done, it will cut 5 copies.
    • Forced: take the Copies parameter as the number of copies to cut.
  3. Copies: for Forced repetition mode, set the number of copies to cut.
  4. Gap (mm): fill in this field by measuring the gap between the marks of 2 copies. This number must be constant across the copies because the tool will jump across this distance to be positioned under marks of the next job.

 

Multicopy With Sheets

  Info

This configuration is specific for Summa S One series.

  1. Multicopy field: select Sheet.
  2. Repetition: whether Remaining copies or Forced, in this case the cutter will process jobs in the stacker until it's empty.
