Pick ULTRAFILMCUT if
You already own a Graphtec, Roland, Summa, Mimaki or USCutter machine and want to keep using it.
- One purchase order gets you cutting, hardware and software together
- Nesting and material optimization tuned to their own machine
Pick YINK if
You are buying your first plotter and want hardware and software from one vendor.
What moving actually involves
- 01
Run both for two weeks
Start the trial while your current subscription is still live. Cut the same vehicles you cut last week and compare fit on the car, not on a spec sheet.
- 02
Keep your plotter
No hardware change unless your current software is bundled to a machine. Re run the calibration square and note your numbers.
- 03
Check your real vehicle list
Pull the last thirty jobs from your calendar and search each one. Coverage of your actual mix matters more than any total pattern count.
- 04
Decide on the car
The only test that counts is edge quality on a real install. If it is not better or cheaper, stay where you are.

ULTRAFILMCUT vs YINK questions
You already own a Graphtec, Roland, Summa, Mimaki or USCutter machine and want to keep using it. If the opposite is true for your shop, YINK is the better buy and this page says so.
Bundled with hardware. Software value is folded into the plotter package. Compiled from publicly available information, last verified August 2026.
Only if your current setup came bundled with proprietary hardware. ULTRAFILMCUT drives Graphtec, Roland, Summa, Mimaki and USCutter machines directly, so most shops keep the machine they own.
Yes, and it is the sensible way to decide. Run the 14 day trial on your own plotter, cut the same vehicles you cut last week, and compare fit rather than feature lists.
Cut a real pattern before you pay for anything
Request a trial code, install on your Windows workstation, and cut on the plotter you already own. Fourteen days, no card.
