Summa announces the launch of its F1612 Single-Phase flatbed cutter, now available exclusively in the U.S. This new model addresses a significant need in the market by offering the same power and capabilities as the original F1612, but with a single-phase connection, making it accessible to a wider range of businesses.
Many commercial buildings in the U.S., especially those outside industrial zones, are limited to single-phase electrical connections. This limitation has posed challenges for businesses investing in industrial equipment, as most machines in the market require a three-phase connection. While it’s technically possible to use a converter to connect a single-phase system to a three-phase machine, this approach adds both cost and complexity, slowing down installation and increasing expenses.
Recognizing this gap in the market, Summa has introduced the F1612 Single-Phase flatbed cutter, a version of its most popular model from the F Series. This decision was driven by the need to accommodate businesses in non-industrial locations where single-phase connections are more common.
By offering the F1612 in a single-phase option, Summa ensures that more businesses can take advantage of its advanced cutting technology without limiting performance. The F1612 Single-Phase offers the same versatile capabilities as its three-phase counterpart, providing flexibility in Summa’s product range. This new model is as easy and fast to install as the standard three-phase unit, as it eliminates the need for an expensive converter, making it a more cost-effective option for businesses.
Summa’s commitment to meeting customer needs, regardless of their location, is reflected in this new launch, which enables more companies to choose the best machine for their specific requirements. The F1612 Single-Phase is set to revolutionize the market by providing high-quality cutting solutions to businesses previously unable to invest in such equipment.
Stijn Hendrickx, CEO of Summa, believes that the launch of the F1612 Single-Phase is a significant milestone for Summa and its customers in the US: "By offering a single-phase option without sacrificing performance, we ensure that more businesses can access our cutting-edge technology, regardless of location. This aligns seamlessly with our commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction.
"The introduction of the F1612 Single-Phase flatbed cutter is a direct response to the needs of our customers," notes Randi Kerkaert, Product Manager at Summa. "We understood the challenges faced by businesses in non-industrial areas and wanted to provide a solution that didn’t compromise on power or functionality. The F1612 Single-Phase offers the same high performance as our three-phase model, but with the added convenience of a single-phase connection, making it an ideal choice for a broader range of businesses."
