“It provides the accuracy, speed, and range of functions that a small business like ours needs to thrive.”
Wiltshire-based Tiato ltd has acquired a JWEI JCUT 2131 digital cutting table from CMYUK, to enhance its production capabilities. Prior to installing the JWEI JCUT 2131, Tiato managed its cutting needs using a combination of manual techniques and a CNC router. Although the latter was suitable for more rugged substrates such as wood, it lacked the finesse for cutting more delicate materials.
“We were spending a lot of extra time sanding edges to achieve the right finish,” says Tim Tomblin, owner of Tiato Sign & Digital. “Our manual processes, combined with the limitations of our CNC router, simply wasn’t keeping up with our growing production demands.”
After exploring various options, Tim found that the JCUT provides the digital cutting capabilities he was looking for in a machine of that size at that price point.
This includes an automatic feeding conveyor, 1800kW liquid cooled router for powerful milling, Auto Tool Changer (ATC), Universal Cutting Tool (UCT), Kiss Cut Tool (KCT), Electric Oscillating Tool (EOT), Crease Wheel Tool (CWT), V-Cut Tool (VCT), and a modularised cutting head that accommodates up to 3 sets of tool combinations simultaneously. The JWEI JCUT 2131 runs up to 1200mm per second, the equivalent of 75m per minute, with a maximum acceleration point of 1G.
“The JCUT 2131 is the perfect fit for us,” says Tim. “It offers all the essential features including higher kilowatt tooling at an affordable price point. It provides the accuracy, speed, and range of functions that a small business like ours needs to thrive.”
Prior to setting up Tiato, Tim had a great deal of experience operating and working with top-end, higher priced digital cutting brands. However, with the JWEI JCUT, he has found the sweet spot of attainable investment without sacrificing quality.
Since installing the JWEI JCUT 2131, Tim has seen a significant improvement in the business’ workflow processes. Finishing tasks that previously took up to 20 hours by hand are now completed within half a day. In addition, the JCUT’s vacuum bed ensures materials lay flat for accurate cuts and offers additional functions such as creasing for custom packaging.
“The JCUT 2131 has been a game changer for us,” says Tim. “It not only saves time but also increases accuracy, allowing us to take on more complex projects. It’s versatile enough to support our current needs yet gives us capacity for future growth.”
“The team at CMYUK has been fantastic. Their support gives us confidence in our investment. It’s reassuring to know we have a partner that cares about the success of our business,” says Tim.
