With all-new updated engineering, the Cameo 5 is the faster more accurate, and quieter than its prior model releases.
The Cameo 5α (12-inch width model) and Cameo 5α Plus (15-inch width model) are Silhouette’s flagship cutting machines. The CAMEO 5 is a grit-roller machine that provides flexibility to handle materials from 4.25 to 12 inches wide using its newly engineered adjustable pinch rollers, and cut longer rolls of material using its included roll feeder. The CAMEO 5 Plus provides the same quality cutting experience with an extended cutting width of 15 inches.
These machines are Intelligent Path Technology ready and equipped with a power carriage to use new Silhouette power tools, thus expanding your project possibilities. An optional Electrostatic Mat will also be compatible with the CAMEO 5 and Cameo 5α and CAMEO 5 Plus and Camo 5α plus so you can tap into the benefits of Electrostatic Technology and expand your range of usable materials. The CAMEO 5 and CAMEO 5 Plus will provide updated user-experience features like an Automatic Crosscutting feature and a built-in 'Repeat Job' function that can be performed with the press of a button on the machine itself.
The CAMEO 5α is be offered in four color variations -- Classic White, Matte Black, Matte Pink, and Bianco Carrara. The CAMEO 5α Plus is offered in Black only
