COMPANY HISTORY

Graphtec Corporation entered the plotter market more than 30 years ago with the introduction of the first intelligent, low cost small format plotter in Japan.  In response to the world-wide demands from the fast growing CAD industry, by the mid 80’s Graphtec had developed a strong and competitive range of pen plotters and digitisers. The company soon became one of the world’s substantial players, growing and expanding year by year.

Toward the end of the 1980’s, Graphtec extended its range by adapting the conventional pen plotter; replacing the pen with a cutting blade to create the cutting plotter familiar to today’s sign makers.
