OptiScout

Optiscout is a software program for importing and editing vector graphics. It has a modular optical recognition software system for industrial cutter systems.

Cut Finishing Workflow
OptiScout accompanies the user step by step through the finishing workflow – be it printed or unprinted materials. Data can be imported via defined interfaces from RIPs, CAD or graphic applications. OptiScout is a cross-platform solution for all cutting or milling applications.

Compatibility
Compatibility is a key factor in integrating finishing
solutions in mixed production environments.

RIP Compatibility*
Supporting RIPs: Agfa Asanti, Aurelon PrintFactory, Cadlink,
Caldera, ColorGATE, EFI, ErgoSoft PosterPrint / TexPrint, IGEPA
