Simply put, the Wizard Z1 is the ultimate mat design and cutting solution for custom framing businesses poised for growth.
Z1 is the Ultimate Mat Design & Cutting Solution
- Auto-Homing - the Z1's brain allows it to automatically home itself and align the cutting head. This means you can start cutting right away with the confidence that everything is properly aligned and ready to go.
- Automated Depth Control - cutting depth is set through our industry-leading FrameShop™ software and then motor-controlled for maximum precision and reliability.
- Intelli-Clamps™ - the Z1 is the first computerized mat cutter ever to feature our innovative collision detection & avoidance system, which provides visual LED indicators and prevents the cutting head from colliding with interfering clamps when cutting edge-to-edge.
- Zero Edge Waste - utilize the entire board with our SmartClamps™ system that enables you to cut edge-to-edge to maximize your material usage and avoid edge waste.
- Endless Creative Possibilities - the Z1 is also compatible with all of the decorative design capabilities of our pen, debossing, vinyl cutting, and box-making accessories - it’s the ultimate custom mat design and cutting solution.
- SwitchBlade™ Quick-Change Cartridge System - easily switch between cutting (90º, 52º, or 45º), debossing (3 different cartridges), drawing using your favorite pen, cutting decorative vinyl elements, or making custom boxes - with no tools required to switch functions.
- Rapid Cutting Speeds - up to 20-in/sec (fastest in its class). The Z1 is designed to maximize your production efficiency.
Endless Creative Possibilities
In addition, the decorative design capabilities of the pen, debossing, vinyl cutting, and box making accessories provide virtually unlimited creative possibilities. And unlike our competitors’ machines, our SwitchBlade™ Quick-Change Cartridge System provides the added convenience of switching between various cutting or decorative operations almost instantly - without the need for special tools!
Z1 is designed to save you money on matboard and protect your machine
Wizard’s SmartClamps™ Zero Edge Waste Clamping System has been designed for edge-to-edge cutting using our industry-leading FrameShop® software for nesting, tiling, and optimized outside cuts. This enables maximum material yield with no edge waste (Example: get four 16” x 20” mats out of a single 32” x 40” sheet of matboard, with zero edge waste typical with traditional style bar clamping systems).
Z1 is the first digital mat cutter to incorporate our innovative Intelli-Clamps™ Collision Detection & Avoidance System, which utilizes intelligent sensors combined with visual LED indicators to prevent the cutting head from colliding with interfering clamps when cutting edge-to-edge. This new feature helps protect your investment, especially in production environments where there are multiple machine operators.
