What makes ScanNCut so versatile and easy to use?
Stand-alone
Create and edit your designs, all on the bright 12,7cm colour LCD touchscreen. The extra-large non-glare touchscreen makes it easier than ever to edit, zoom and customise your designs with no PC or mobile device required.
Blade Sensor Technology
Saving time and making cutting effortless, the fully automatic blade system takes the away any guesswork, automatically detecting the correct cutting depth and pressure needed for the perfect cut. For even finer results you can manually adjust the settings.
Built-in Scanner
Scan virtually anything – a handmade drawing, a magazine clipping, cherished photos and more – create endless cut and draw designs and save to the machine’s memory.
Scan-to-cut-data
Scan, edit and create your own designs and save it as a cut file. ScanNCut SDX1200 will automatically create cut lines, which can be used to cut, draw or emboss. Additional purchase required for embossing function.
Direct Cut and Half Cut
Scan your material, create the outline cuts and select your design straight from the surface to cut out. Remove the hassle of hand-cutting designs from your favourite papers and fabrics. Also great for cutting personalised stickers, with the handy half cut function.
600dpi Scan to USB
Scan your favourite photos, drawings or large patterns on the generous scanning area of 12” x 24” with the 24“ scanning mat. Save as jpeg files direct to USB flash drive. The 24” scan mat is available as an optional accessory. Additional purchase required.
Background Scanning
Don’t let small or awkward pieces of card and fabric go to waste. With our background scanning function you can place your design exactly on your leftovers, saving you time and money.
Cut up to 3mm
Cut thicker materials like felt and foam up to 3mm. The new 3mm cutting blade gives you the freedom to explore a variety of materials, all with one versatile blade.
WLAN Connection
Wireless connection allows you to send designs directly from your free CanvasWorkspace account. No need for cables or USB flash drives. http://canvasworkspace.brother.com
Fabric Cutting
Calling all quilters! Cut perfect quilting and patchwork pieces at the touch of a button. ScanNCut SDX1200 can even draw in and cut your desired seam allowance, so you can spend time on what you really enjoy.
Pen Draw
With ScanNCut SDX1200 you can change your cut file – whether it’s from a previous scanned image or a built-in design – then recreate the design into a drawing in a matter of seconds.
Built-in Patterns
Packed with 17 fonts and 1,303 built-in designs, including 140 quilt and appliqué patterns, the ScanNCut SDX1200 has something for every person, project or occasion.
SVG Data Readability
With the ScanNCut SDX1200 there is no need to convert SVG files before cutting out, as the machine can read them directly. More time crafting, less time converting.
PES/PHC/PHX Readability
Convert your favourite PES/PHC/PHX* embroidery data into cutting or drawing files directly on the ScanNCut SDX1200. Able to recognise grey, colour, outline, region and stitch lines, your converted embroidery data can now be used for beautiful cutting, line art, embossing and foiling projects.
