Cutting 4.0 PERFECTA Interfaces
Network Connection
The network connection of PERFECTA cutting machines is established via Ethernet and OPC UA interfaces.
This allows the following modules to be implemented:
- Prepress Data Connection
- Straight2Cut
- Feedback of Production Data
- Real-Time Feedback on Machine Status
- Remote Service / Remote Maintenance

Technical Specifications
-
Prepress Data Connection
Using the Cuttronic software, CIP4 data (*.ppf or *.jdf) can be processed into cutting programs either on an external computer or directly in the machine control system.
-
Straight2Cut
Decreasing print runs and increasing order volumes lead to a growing amount of data. By scanning the job ticket, the corresponding job file for the order opens in seconds without any manual searching.
-
Feedback of Production Data
The machine control system reports production data—such as job name, operator, processing time, and job status—to higher-level MIS systems.
-
Real-Time Feedback on Machine Status
The machine status is reported back via an OPC UA interface. This enables production planning to react at an early stage.
-
Remote Service / Remote Maintenance
In the event of machine malfunctions, quick and straightforward troubleshooting or fault localization can be performed by the manufacturer via remote maintenance, significantly improving machine availability.
