$12,900.00
- Wide-Format DTF Cutting: Handles film rolls up to 37.3 in. wide, fed, aligned and cut automatically.
- Registration Mark Sensor: Detects marks and corrects film drift for clean, accurate transfer cuts.
- Up to 300 Meters per Hour: About 984 ft per hour, enough to support up to four DTF printers.
- Operator Safety Built In: Safety light curtain, emergency stop and foot pedal on every machine.
The MicroTec APEX XC-37 is a fully automatic, wide-format DTF film cutter built for shops running film up to 37.3 inches wide. It feeds printed rolls automatically, reads registration marks to keep every cut aligned, cuts with a pneumatic knife at up to 300 meters per hour and stacks finished transfers. If your printers have outgrown 24-inch film, the XC-37 keeps your finishing line just as fast as your print line.
Why Shops Upgrade to the MicroTec APEX XC-37
- 37.3-inch maximum roll width: room for wider DTF film and larger gang sheets.
- Fully automatic workflow: feeding, sensor alignment, cutting and stacking in one continuous pass.
- Registration mark detection: corrects film deviation so cuts stay accurate across the full roll.
- Up to 300 meters per hour: supports output from up to four DTF printers.
- PLC control panel: adjust speed, tension and cutting length per job.
- Complete safety package: light curtain, emergency stop and foot pedal.
Built for Wide-Format DTF Production
Wider DTF printers produce more transfers per pass, but only if finishing keeps up. Hand-cutting 30-inch plus gang sheets is slow, tiring and inconsistent. The XC-37 takes that job off your team: load the roll, set your cut length and let the machine run while operators press, pack and ship orders.
Precision Alignment and Tension Control
A high-precision sensor reads registration marks and corrects film deviation as the roll feeds. Adjustable tension holds wide film flat and straight, which matters more as roll width increases. The pneumatic cross-cutting knife is rated for up to 1,000,000 cycles and handles PET, PVC and other common DTF films.
MicroTec APEX XC-37 vs. XC-25
Both APEX cutters run at the same rated speed of up to 300 meters (984 feet) per hour and share the same automatic feed, sensor alignment and safety features. The difference is size and power: the XC-25 takes rolls up to 25.5 inches on standard 110V power, while the XC-37 takes rolls up to 37.3 inches and runs on 220V. Choose the XC-37 if you run wider film today or plan to add a wider DTF printer.
Power, Air and Space Requirements
The XC-37 runs on 220V at 2,000W and 9A and needs a compressed air supply of at least 4.2 CFM. The machine measures 81.8 x 55.9 x 47.6 inches with a net weight of 766 lb and ships by freight at 1,228 lb. Plan for a 220V circuit, an air line, floor space and freight receiving access before delivery.
Complete Your Wide-Format DTF Line
Pair the XC-37 with a wide production printer from our DTG and DTF printers and a matching shaker such as the DTF Station Miro 36 inch powder shaker and dryer. Keep premium DTF transfer film on hand, and send cut transfers to a high-volume press like the MicroTec APEX X6 rotary heat press.
Warranty and Support
The MicroTec APEX XC-37 includes a MicroTec limited manufacturer warranty and US-based technical support. Coverage terms vary by component, so contact Buffalo Imaging for the current written warranty before ordering. Freight is quoted separately based on your location.
