Vector VR2 industrial CNC router
Industrial CNC routing, controlled through V‑CUT.
Five table sizes. One machine platform. One control system, developed in Europe, that carries the job from file to finished part and back from an interruption.
The platform
Sheet production with integrated machine control.
Core hardware is the same on every format. You choose the table size for your sheets; the spindle, extraction, tool changer and vacuum are matched to the work.
- 5 Table sizes 1313 to 2040, plus custom on request
- 10–14 Tool positions Linear tool changer, configuration dependent
- Teknomotor Italian CNC spindle Standard, matched to the application
- 7.5 kW Vacuum pump One or more, model dependent
- 2 years Machine warranty Vector VR2 machine warranty
- CE Marked UK and European markets
Table size
Table sizes matched to your sheet formats.
The model code is the table size. Everything below the table is the same platform, so the choice comes down to the sheets you cut most often and the space you have.
Same on every format

Table size, spindle, tooling, extraction, vacuum and site services are confirmed for the selected machine.
Machine and control
Control hold-down, extraction and tooling from V-CUT.
While the job is prepared and run, the operator controls the table, the brush and the tool list from V-CUT, not from a second panel.
-
Zoned vacuum
The matrix vacuum table is controlled through V-CUT. Vacuum goes where the sheet and job need it.
-
Extraction brush
Follows the configured sheet height, so dust capture stays in place without manual adjustment.
-
ToolCheck
The required-tool list for the loaded job, shown before production starts. The linear tool changer then handles the changes.
-
FlowControl
Demand-led cooling air. Continuous air use drops when the process does not need it.
-
One status view
Coordinates, active tool, feed, spindle state, distance-to-go and remaining time stay in view.
-
Support information
Machine identity, fault feedback, logs and service metrics give DXF a clear starting point for diagnosis.
ActiveGuard
Controlled stopping with authorised recovery.
ActiveGuard is the light-guard stop and controlled recovery system. If the protected zone is interrupted, the machine initiates a rapid controlled stop.
V-CUT then supports an authorised recovery process within the approved machine procedure, so a trained operator can return to the job rather than start again.
ActiveGuard is a controlled, authorised recovery process. It is not a guard bypass. Training and safe setup are still required.
V-CUT
Control the complete job from one screen.
Setup, machine position, tools, files, live progress, restart and service information in one touch-led environment. Less time searching menus, more time cutting.
- 01
Prepare
Load the approved job, confirm the datum, see the required tools and check the dimensions.
- 02
Verify
Frame the job boundary and run the path above the material before cutting.
- 03
Run
Keep tool, feed, spindle state, distance-to-go and remaining time in view.
- 04
Recover
Restart from a known line or path point after an interruption.
- 05
Support
Use fault feedback, logs and service data to give DXF a clear picture.
V-CUT is developed in Europe by DXF Machinery for the Vector VR2 platform.
Live production
Monitor the machine and job in one view.
Position, progress, the job view and the tool list on one display.
-
TouchDRO
Interactive machine and work coordinates, with touch selection and reset.
-
JobTrack
Distance-to-go and remaining time for the current line and the whole job.
-
TouchView
Multi-touch 2D and 3D job view with dimensions, travel and cutting lines.
-
ToolCheck
The required-tool list for the loaded job, before production starts.
Before cutting
Verify the setup before cutting begins.
Four checks that reduce avoidable setup errors. They do not replace training or a safe setup.
-
Table Guard
Configurable spoilboard and safe-Z protection that helps reduce the risk of an unintended plunge.
Does not make a table strike impossible.
-
Job boundary preview
Moves around the job boundary to check sheet position, clamps, stops and usable table area.
-
Elevated path verification
Runs the programmed path 50 mm above the material to check travel and setup.
-
DatumBank
Stores selectable datum offsets for common sheet, fixture and work positions.
SmartRestart
Resume a stopped job from a controlled restart point.
SmartRestart gives a trained operator several controlled ways back into a stopped job.
-
Line restart
Select a G-code line and position close to the relevant cut path.
-
Profile restart
Choose a point on a recognised profile and return visually to the cut.
-
On-path start
Select the intended restart line directly in the touch interface.
-
LiveRewind
Use the manual pulse generator to review program motion before choosing the restart position.
Files and utilities
Manage job files and routine tasks at the machine.
-
JobVault
Controlled job access from local storage, authorised USB, approved cloud locations or Windows shares.
Supports approved file routes. Not an absolute data-loss guarantee.
-
CAMLink
A Vectric plugin that creates a consistent job card and folder structure for hand-off to the machine.
-
QuickCut
A two- or three-point sheet cut for squaring, dividing or trimming without returning to CAM.
-
SmartSkim
Built-in horizontal, vertical or diagonal spoilboard surfacing with adjustable stepover.
Access and support
Role-based controls for operators, owners and service technicians.
-
Operator
Job loading, setup, operation, permitted offsets and standard production controls.
-
Owner
Tool setup, references, backup and restore, logs, tests and service information.
-
Service
Commissioning, calibration, motion tests, live I/O and deeper diagnostics for trained technicians.
-
ServiceTrack
Running time, spindle use, axis travel and selected service events in one place.
Straight answers
Operational limits and operator responsibilities
-
Replace training
Controls reduce risk. They do not remove the need for training and safe setup.
-
Make a table strike impossible
Table Guard reduces the risk of an unintended plunge. Correct tooling and setup are still required.
-
Lock files inside the business
JobVault supports approved file routes. It is not absolute protection against data loss.
-
Bypass the guard
ActiveGuard is a stop followed by an authorised recovery process, within the approved machine procedure.
Applications
Configure the machine for your production requirements.
The right setup starts with your normal material, sheet size, finish and workload, not the largest available specification.
-
Sign and display
Routed panels, lettering, shaped parts and fabricated display components.
-
Furniture and joinery
Repeatable panel and component production with consistent datum positions.
-
Plastics and composites
Specialist sheet materials with tooling, cooling, extraction and hold-down matched to the process.
-
Prototypes and short runs
Samples, development parts and shorter batches where setup clarity matters.
