Computer Assisted Vinyl Stencil Cutters

Do you need to get that glass or stone sandblast etched by this afternoon or risk losing the job?

Now you can - with affordable, easy to use machines!

Cut stencils: Save time and money by cutting your own stencils for sandblast etching and carving with the latest in cutting technology and easy to use software! Cut designs on vinyl or rubber resist or plot with a drawing pen - any size you need. No need to be an artist - there are 1000's of  spectacular of designs available that are cut-ready. Cut Stencils for: Glass, Stone, Rock, Concrete, Monuments, Wood Signs, Containers, and any surface that need a stencil.

Also Cut: Signs of all types including: Traffic and Highway Signs, storefront signs, building signs, banners, point of purchase, auto detailing, Tint Film - auto and home, Plot Stained glass patterns, and many more.

After using and selling cutters since 1993, we at Art on Glass have never seen cutters so well suited as the Advanced Plotting Devices and the Graphtec FC80008 series for cutting stencils to etch and carve on glass and stone.

Advanced Plotting Devices- The Sandblast Models are designed specifically for the cutting of thick sandblast vinyl and rubber mask (up to 50 mil thick rubber) for deep sandblast carving on hard surfaces such as glass, stone, rock, granite and marble. They utilize between 4 and 12 pinch rollers and are very popular in the glass, stone and monument industries. This cutter will precision cut on material as thin as 2 mil, as thick as 50 mil, and everything in between! New drive motors and motherboard technology along with USB and Serial connectivity result in faster speeds and quiet operation. APD was formerely known as AnaGraph and is well known in the Monument and Glass Carving industries as a reliable cutter that gets the job done!

Graphtec's FC8000 series far out steps all other brands of cutters, with the absolute latest technologies and features, the best software ever packaged with a cutter, prices the competition can’t touch, and a bullet-proof 3 year warrantee/loaner program. No other cutter can cut as thick of material and as fine of detail as the FC8000. The USB and serial connectivity makes the FC8000 more compatible with today’s computers. Graphtec has been in business since 1949 and manufacturing plotters since 1961! Most other companies didn't start making cutting plotters until 1989, this is one of the reasons why Graphtec is so far ahead of the rest!

Conclusion: These are the cutters that can produce any type of stencil, thick or thin, with high detail. You would never need another cutter. We highly recommend these cutters for anyone creating stencils regardless of the size, thickness, or quantity of the stencil because the APD Sandblast Models and the Graphtec FC8000 series can do it all and do it much better than any other brand of cutter on the market. The new low pricing blows away all other brands and makes the decision of which cutter to buy a no-brainer!
