PrimeCenter 3.3 brings new capabilities to users by introducing drivers for a wider range of cutting devices, furthering the platform’s mission of providing seamless, efficient production workflows for a growing number of environments.
PrimeCenter 3.3 introduces two key new drivers that expand the software’s integration with a broader range of cutters, thanks to new partnerships with Secabo and Supply55 to provide the Secabo driver, and Euro-Systems to provide the OptiScout driver. This builds on the momentum of earlier integrations with Kongsberg, DXF and HPGL drivers, as well as its long-standing support for Zünd Cut Center (ZCC). By continuing to add drivers for more devices, PrimeCenter is strategically positioning itself as both RIP-agnostic and now increasingly cutter-agnostic, giving users maximum flexibility when managing diverse production setups.
PrimeCenter 3.3 introduces a driver for the Secabo DTF MultiCut Pro (also known as the ExpressCutPRO in the United States), an automatic cutter designed for Direct-to-Film (DTF) workflows. This new feature allows users to export cut files tailored for the Secabo DTF MultiCut Pro, enabling precise, automated DTF cutting and reducing the need for manual processes. With this integration, users will experience a streamlined workflow and improved production speed.
Chase Pender, Business Developer at Supply55, said, ‘We are excited for the integration of ExpressCutPRO and PrimeCenter. By combining Caldera’s powerful workflow automation with the precision cutting of ExpressCutPRO, we’re confident that this collaboration will offer users an enhanced production experience, improving both efficiency and output quality.’
Furthermore, PrimeCenter now supports OptiScout, a modular optical recognition software system for multifunctional flatbed machines, making it compatible with a wide variety of cutting devices from several manufacturers like Colex, Bullmer and Hasler. With this new driver, PrimeCenter users will be able to export cut files compatible with their OptiScout cutter controllers, opening the door to more efficient, high-precision production in environments that use these devices.
Frank Thömmes, CTO at Euro-Systems, said, ‘With over 30 years of expertise in the cut software market, Euro-Systems is excited to collaborate with Caldera on integrating the OptiScout OXF interface into Caldera PrimeCenter. This partnership will strengthen both companies’ presence in the print-and-cut workflow market.’
In addition to the new drivers, PrimeCenter 3.3 introduces several user experience improvements. The ability to save incomplete recipes for future configuration allows users to continue setting up workflows later without losing progress. Plus, the improved registration mark spacing algorithm ensures more accurate and reliable cutting across different devices.
PrimeCenter 3.3 is available for download through CalderaDock, Caldera’s dedicated software management application.
