Gerber Scientific Products Announces the Launch of the Powerful New M Turbo ­ A Flatbed Cutting and Routing System

SOUTH WINDSOR, CT - Gerber Scientific Products, Inc., a worldwide leader in sign making and specialty graphics systems headquartered in South Windsor, Connecticut, USA, is proud to announce the launch of their new flatbed digital die-cutting system, the M Turbo.

Gerber’s senior strategic accounts manager Steve Albert reveals, “The M Turbo is an important new product in the M Series family. The M Turbo features a more powerful, 1-kilowatt electric router that will expand any shop’s capabilities. The M Turbo allows you to rout .080 aluminum and thick rigid materials up to 1” thick, such as wood and acrylic. It can also rout thinner rigid boards, like aluminum composite materials, up to 4 times faster than our standard M Series router.

In addition to the more powerful router, the Gerber M Turbo flatbed cutter offers new software improvements that allow the user to control the rpms at which the M Turbo routs, giving even greater flexibility to our customers. The high-powered router head is configured into the M Series T3 Tool Head design, so the M Trubo still takes advantage of all of all the standard M Series tools, such as the reciprocating knife, crease wheel, tangential knives and more.

”The new M Turbo will have all the strengths that the other M Series cutters already enjoy, such as the robust table construction design, the M-Vision optical registration system which ensures accurate print-to-cut registration and the zoned vacuum system which allows for accurate material hold down. Albert notes, “The Gerber M Turbo flatbed cutter is a complete turnkey system that includes everything you need to run the machine in production.

Experience the greater power and versatility of the Gerber M Turbo flatbed cutter at the upcoming Print 09 Show in Chicago September 10th-16th or at the SGIA Expo in New Orleans October 8th-10th.
