Elevate your DIY projects to professional levels with the Silhouette Cameo 5α Alpha, the next-generation cutting machine that's redefining precision, speed, and versatility in crafting. Whether you're a hobbyist creating custom vinyl decals, intricate paper crafts, or fabric designs, this advanced craft vinyl cutter delivers flawless results every time. Designed for makers who demand more, the Cameo 5 Alpha combines cutting-edge technology with user-friendly features to make your creative vision a reality.
Experience cutting speeds up to 400mm/s without sacrificing accuracy, thanks to the innovative four-point registration mark system that ensures superior Print & Cut performance with vertical and horizontal corrections. The Silhouette Cameo 5 Alpha cutting machine features Intelligent Path Technology (IPT), which optimizes cutting paths for smoother, cleaner edges on multi-layer projects, reducing waste and boosting efficiency. With a mechanical resolution of 0.00625mm and programmable precision down to 0.05mm, it's perfect for detailed designs that stand out—think heat transfer vinyl for apparel, cardstock invitations, or even specialty media like leather and foil.
What sets the Cameo 5α Alpha apart is its dual-carriage system, allowing you to mount two tools simultaneously for seamless transitions between cutting, sketching, embossing, and scoring. Handle materials up to 3mm thick across a generous 12-inch x 24-inch cutting area (expandable to 11.6 inches x 16 feet with mats), supporting everything from delicate paper and vinyl to sturdy fabrics and cardstock. The redesigned pinch rollers offer better visibility and flexibility for various material widths, while the electrostatic mat provides a stronger hold up to 0.5mm for tear-free weeding.
Say goodbye to noisy machines—the Silhouette Cameo 5α Alpha operates ultra-quietly, making it ideal for home studios or late-night crafting sessions. Enjoy smart features like front automatic crosscutting, one-touch job repeats, and an emergency stop for safety. Fast Sketch Mode lets you create crisp drawings at higher speeds, and automatic blade adjustment simplifies setup. Plus, it integrates seamlessly with Silhouette Studio software (included), featuring the new Segment option for less intrusive registration marks and enhanced workflow.
