Caldera Announces PrimeCenter Update

Caldera (Strasbourg, France) has announced the release of PrimeCenter 3.3, the latest version of its prepress software for large format printing and cutting, according to a press release. This update provides new drivers for a wider range of cutting devices, furthering the platform’s mission of providing seamless, efficient production workflows for a growing number of environments.

PrimeCenter 3.3 introduces two key drivers that expand the software’s integration with a broader range of cutters, due to new partnerships with Secabo and Supply55 to provide the Secabo driver, and Euro-Systems to provide the OptiScout driver. This builds on the momentum of earlier integrations with Kongsberg, DXF, and HPGL drivers, as well as the company’s longstanding support for Zünd Cut Center (ZCC).

PrimeCenter 3.3 introduces a driver for the Secabo DTF MultiCut Pro (also known as the ExpressCutPRO in the US), an automatic cutter designed for direct-to-film (DTF) workflows. This new feature allows users to export cut files tailored specifically for the Secabo DTF MultiCut Pro, enabling precise, automated DTF cutting and reducing the need for manual processes. With this integration, users will experience a streamlined workflow and improved production speed — per the press release.

PrimeCenter also supports OptiScout, a modular optical recognition software system for multifunctional flatbed machines, making it compatible with a wide variety of cutting devices from several manufacturers such as Colex, Bullmer and Hasler.

Finally, PrimeCenter 3.3 has several user experience improvements. The ability to save incomplete recipes for future configuration allows users to continue setting up workflows later without losing progress. Plus, the improved registration mark spacing algorithm ensures more accurate and reliable cutting across different devices.
