Gerber Scientific Inc. (South Windsor, CT) is announcing it has granted a patent license to Graphtec Corp. This license represents the third non-exclusive license Gerber has granted to a Japanese equipment manufacturer for its family of computerized “print to cut” technology patents, based on its pioneering U.S. Patent 5,537,135. Financial and other terms of the license agreement weren’t disclosed.

“We are very pleased to have concluded an agreement with Graphtec Corp., enabling it to utilize our patented technology within its suite of plotter and printer products. This action is another example of Gerber’s stated position of allowing other companies access to this family of patents to advance the industry as a whole.” said Marc T. Giles, Gerber’s president and CEO.
