PF1, a company based on the northern city of Monterrey in Mexico, is specialized in digital printing and decorative vinyl. The company had to face a common but critical challenge in its production workflow: time-consuming manual cutting and measuring of vinyl rolls. Each order needed to be customized based on the length requested by the client, and this meant trimming edges and measuring meters manually, a process that took up to two hours per roll.
Everything changed after the company visited the FESPA exhibition in Mexico City. That’s where PF1 team first encountered the Flexa Miura automatic cutter, showcased by local dealer Segra. The moment they saw it in action, they knew this was the breakthrough they had been looking for.
“When I saw the Miura at FESPA exhibition, I knew this machine would be a marvelous solution for us,” says Carlos Rios, representative of PF1.
“Once we installed it, the time to process a roll dropped from two hours to just five minutes, cutting and measuring at the same time.”
Scaling up with Flexa: two Miura and two Easy Lite later
Impressed by the immediate impact, PF1 didn’t stop at one machine. They expanded their setup to include two Miura automatic cutters and two Easy Lite laminators, dramatically enhancing their productivity. With this configuration, PF1 is now processing over 10,000 linear meters of vinyl each month, something that would have been nearly impossible with their previous manual system.
The Miura cutters are specifically used for trimming the edges of the vinyl and measuring the length precisely. This simple yet highly efficient function has proven to be a game-changer, allowing the company to keep up with growing customer demand without increasing labor or overhead costs.
“Our production capabilities increased dramatically,” Carlos Rios adds.
“Without the two Miura, we wouldn’t be able to handle the volume of orders we receive today.”
Why PF1 trusts Segra and recommends Flexa solutions
Choosing Segra as their supplier was a natural decision for PF1, as they are official Flexa dealers in Mexico. Beyond just selling equipment, Segra provided a seamless experience that matched the quality of the machines themselves.
PF1 reports that the combination of Segra trusted service and Flexa innovation has helped them evolve into a more efficient, scalable business. Their satisfaction is so high that they confidently recommend both Segra service and Flexa Miura cutters to others in the industry.
“Sure, I would recommend the Flexa Miura cutters and laminators and Segra,” concludes Carlos Rios.
“These machines have completely transformed our production process.”
PF1 journey with Flexa and Segra is a clear example of how the right technology and partnerships can drive real business transformation.
Flexa Miura and Easy Lite machines, combined with Segra support, have helped PF1 stay competitive and future ready.
