Advanced SignCut functions to increase your efficiency

SignCut offers innovative functions that make your workflows faster and more efficient. Thanks to the integration of hotfolder support and automatic PLT file creation, the tool can be seamlessly connected to Vulcan machines. This saves you valuable time and energy at every work step.

Hotfolder support in the SignCut spooler

Optimized file management with hotfolders

The management of cutting files is greatly simplified by the hotfolder function in SignCut. This feature eliminates the need for external file management software and enables centralized storage of your PLT files for effortless processing.

This is how hotfolder support works:

• Specify a folder for saving your PLT files.
• Configure this folder as a hotfolder in the SignCut spooler settings.
• Press the QR button on your Vulcan machine and the SignCut spooler will automatically process your file requests.

This optimized approach works across platforms, including Mac, and ensures accessibility and ease of use for all users.

Automatic PLT file creation from Illustrator or CorelDraw

Simplified workflows thanks to direct PLT exports

With SignCut, you can now skip unnecessary steps by exporting PLT files directly from design software such as Illustrator or CorelDraw. This feature saves time and eliminates the need for traditional manual workflows.

The most important advantages:

• Use layer names (e.g. CUT or CREASE) to assign tool presets within your designs.
• Click on “Export to SignCut” to automatically generate a PLT file.
• If the hotfolder is configured, the PLT file is immediately transferred to the corresponding storage location.

This process ensures faster results and allows you to focus on creating high-quality designs instead of wasting time on file management. For manual control, there is still the option to open SignCut and import files.
