The work surface is divided into six zones for the 67″ x 126″ and 126″ x 64″ models, four zones for the 67″ x 67″ model, and sixteen zones for the 126″ x 126″ model. Each zone has its own vacuum pump controlled by individual electrical “on/off” buttons on the front panel. The power of the pumps is configured for most substrates used in large format printing.

As a business owner, I’ve had a lot of machines over the years, but this is my Favorite! It has allowed us to offer so many more products to our customers. It is a workhorse and I would recommend this machine and company to anyone. Great customer service and support! – Marsha
This is a great piece of equipment. For its capabilities you can not beat the price! Installation went very smooth the training was excellent and we have been running the machine every day for the last 3 months! If you ever have an issue a phone call and a quick set-up in Team Viewer and problems solved! Very happy with our decision and purchase! – Chris
By far the best purchase I have made in 30 years! – Jeff
We have had our Colex for almost 4 years and love it. At one point we ran it 24 hours a day for 5 days without any issues. – William
I already had 2 other flatbed cutters and decided to try the Colex version as it appeared comparable at a substantially better price. While I still have the other two cutters, I now have 5 of the Colex cutters. They do a great job and their customer service is superb. Their service department is extremely accommodating and they understand that in a deadline business you can’t afford to have equipment down. Great team to work with. – Alan
Colex makes a wonderful product with a 5 star customer service! They are always very friendly and extremely helpful! -Branden/Creative Color Studio
