iECHO BK4 FLATBED CUTTER

The new generation BK4 high-speed digital cutting system is a high speed, single-layer material cutting system that can automatically and accurately complete full-cut, half-cut, engraving, V-groove, creasing, marking and other processes.  It is widely used for car interiors, print & signage, apparel, home furnishings, composite materials and other markets.

Enhancements from the BK3

Compared with the iECHO BK3, the IECHO BK4 has been upgraded in many aspects, mainly the following four components:

• Stable frame. Strength of the fuselage has been increased by 30%

• Quiet working environment. Minimum operating noise 65 dB 

• Faster cutting speed. Cutting speed up to 1800mm/s

• Stronger suction power. Air flow increased by 25%

Efficient Cutting Heads

The BK4 can be configured with 1 or 2 cutting assemblies if multi-tool jobs are being cut.  A wide range of tools can be quickly clipped into the chosen number of head assemblies.  Maximum cutting speed is 1.8m per second, which allows for extremely good production efficiency.

Precise Automatic Positioning System Option

With the high precision CCD camera option, the BK4 can accurately locate the position of registration marks when cutting many different printed materials. It can automatically resolve the problems of manual positioning deviation and print deformation.

IECHO Motion Control System

iECHO's CUTTERSERVER makes the cutting process smooth, efficient, perfect.

Safety Device

A built-in safety device ensures the security of the operator.  If the beam is broken the machine will halt until restarted after the obstruction is removed.

IECHO Automatic Knife Initialisation

With the BK4 it is easy to control the cutting depth, accuracy is guaranteed with the built-in infrared sensor which measures the tool length.

IECHO Continuous Cutting System Options

iECHO's intelligent conveyor system makes feeding, cutting and collecting work easy.  A continuous cutting function can cut long pieces, saving labour costs and significantly increasing productivity.

Huge range of tools

Some of the tools available with the iECHO BK4 include:

• EOT - Electric Oscillating Tool for cutting soft and medium density materials.  Features a 1mm stroke.
• POT - Pneumatic Oscillating Tool is an air-driven tool with high oscillating frequency.  The stroke is up to 8mm and it's suitable for cutting hard, dense materials.  It can cut materials up to 50mm thick depending on the blade installed.
• PRT - Powerful Rotary Tool for cutting textiles.
• UCT - Universal Cutting Tool for through-cutting materials with thicknesses up to 5mm.  Fast speed and low cost.
• KCT - Kiss Cut Tool is for cutting self-adhesive vinyl, foil, films, thin paper, cardboard and other thin materials.
• CTT - Creasing tool is used for creasing corrugated materials, ideal for packaging.
• RZ - Router spindle (high speed) with a rotary speed of up to 50,000rpm.  Can cut a wide range of hard and soft materials and also do precise engraving.  Dust extraction system included.
• V-CUT - V-Cut tool for producing complex structural designs from foam core or sandwich board.  The tool can be set at up to five different angles.
