What Is FlexCut?

FlexCut is pattern-cutting software available through Flexfilm, developed in partnership with Film & Vinyl Designs (FVD), for window tint, Paint Protection Film (PPF), and other film installation applications. By combining an extensive pattern database with computer-controlled cutting, FlexCut helps installers improve efficiency, reduce material waste, and eliminate much of the hand-cutting traditionally associated with film installation.

Whether you're a new installer looking to increase consistency or an established shop focused on productivity, FlexCut is designed to simplify the pattern-cutting process.

What Does FlexCut Do?

FlexCut allows installers to select vehicle patterns from the software and send them directly to a compatible plotter for cutting.

Instead of manually cutting film on a vehicle, installers can cut patterns digitally before installation.

This helps create a more efficient workflow while reducing the risk of accidental damage during hand-cutting.

Benefits of FlexCut

Using pattern-cutting software offers several advantages over traditional hand-cutting methods.

• Faster installations
• Improved consistency
• Reduced material waste
• Less hand-cutting
• Professional-looking results
• Increased shop efficiency

For many businesses, these benefits translate directly into increased productivity and profitability.

Who Is FlexCut Designed For?

FlexCut is designed for businesses and installers working with:

• Automotive window tint
• Paint Protection Film (PPF)
• Architectural window film
• Vinyl graphics

Whether you're a one-person operation or a multi-bay shop, FlexCut can help streamline your cutting workflow.

FlexCut Compatibility

FlexCut is compatible with every plotter Flexfilm carries — MH400, SC2, Titan 2, and Titan 3 — as well as a wide range of other plotter brands and models. See our full compatibility list for details, and if your plotter isn't listed, contact our team to confirm compatibility before purchasing.

How Does FlexCut Work?

The process is simple:

1. Select the desired vehicle or pattern.
2. Choose the specific piece you want to cut.
3. Load your material into the plotter.
4. Send the pattern to the plotter.
5. Weed and install the finished pattern.

This workflow helps reduce installation time while improving repeatability across jobs.

Yes.

FlexCut is designed to operate without requiring a constant internet connection, allowing installers to continue cutting patterns even when internet access is unavailable.

This can be especially beneficial for mobile installers and shops with unreliable internet service.
