Hamamatsu, Japan, January 11, 2023 – Roland DG Corporation, a leading manufacturer of wide format inkjet printers and printer cutters, today announced the worldwide sales launch of the newest addition to its VersaSTUDIO series, the GS2-24 vinyl cutter, which was previously available in only limited regions.

VersaSTUDIO is a desktop product line developed by Roland DG to enable anyone to do what was previously possible for only a limited number of professionals. The VersaSTUDIO lineup includes a wide range of digital devices, including a vinyl cutter, printer cutters, engravers and a laser decorator. Their compact sizes, easy-to-use operation, and affordable prices make it possible for those without expertise to easily produce a variety of profitable, high-quality products.

Tony Miller, President, Global Sales and Marketing Division, said, “The GS2-24 announced today is our latest desktop cutter. Since 1988 when we introduced the first cutter/plotter, we have sold more than 500,000 due to their unmatched reliability, precision and value. The GS2-24 is ideal for a wide variety of applications, including sports apparel, T-shirts, indoor and outdoor signage, vehicle decoration, office displays, sales promotion tools and more. It supports a maximum cutter pressure of 500 gf and maximum cutting speed of 850 mm/sec. It can cut a wide range of materials with high productivity and precision, from thin heat transfer sheets and window films to thick paper and even rubber sheets for sandblasting, as well as popular vinyl.”

The included Roland CutStudio design software makes it easy to create cutting data such as text, simple shapes, and illustrations. It can also extract outlines from image data. The GS2-24 comes with dedicated plug-in software for outputting directly from widely used design software packages, Adobe® Illustrator® and CorelDRAW®.

“True to our vision of ‘Transforming your imagination into reality’,” Miller said, “we have been supporting the digitalisation of various fields through a wide variety of devices. The compact, easy-to-use, and affordable VersaSTUDIO series is the perfect solution for people who want to start a new business, add a second business, or work from home. Especially in recent years, interest in such digital devices has been growing with the spread of digital technology, changing values, and diversification of work styles. That’s why the GS2-24 has now been added to the VersaSTUDIO lineup. We will continue to expand our desktop product line to provide more people with the joy of creation and to contribute to the generation of new businesses.”
