Digitrim is another new innovation recently introduced by Fotoba manufacturing for the world of print finishing and distributed in the UK by

The Digitrim features the ability to sense cut marks placed between multiple digital images printed or exposed simultaneously on paper up to 30"/76cm

So how does the Digitrim work?

The sensors cut PARALLEL with these lines even if you feed the print at an angle

Example of the Digitrim's simple bi-directional mark

All that is required to be printed/exposed on the paper together with your images is a simple mark as shown above. Whether it is photographic, electrostatic, inkjet, offset, laser etc., so long as the marks can be produced parallel to the image then the Digitrim will cut it perfectly square every time.

Regardless of any slight misalignment when paper is introduced to the Digitrim, the cutter will automatically re-align itself to the paper plane.

Any type of printer that uses the industry standard QuarkXpress page make-up software can be utilised for barcode creation by using a preset template.

You can down-load a selection of Quark templates from our website to cover most of the popular sizes. The templates for the Digitrim have been created in QuarkXpress 4.0.  From these templates you can build any combination of frames/cut lines by extending or duplicating the trim lines that have been grouped in Quark. All you have to do is drop the images in the frames and print.
