Digital Plotters
There are many systems that can cut labels, but only the Gerber System plotters have sprocketed “print-to-cut” registration.
The sprockets on the printer and cutter assure the operator excellent alignment (registration) of the die cut to the printed material... all the way down the roll.
And you only have to align one bullseye mark at the beginning of the run.

To put things in layman's terms, die cutting is traditionally done with a die that resembles a cookie cutter. They are expensive to buy for short run jobs.
Gerber plotters are run from a computer. Any shape can be sent from the computer to the cutter. Digital dies can be instantly changed, because a digital die is just a file. In a nut shell, it means you can assign a cut to any shape you create. At a sign shop, you'll see vinyl lettering being cut with plotters (digital die cutters).
By simply lining up the media, adjusting the depth of the blade, and clicking the “cut” button, you can cut a whole roll of labels into any shape you wish. And get this... Sprockets mean no babysitting. The material will not run off track, even if you have laminated it with a heavy protective laminate.
Because of the print and cut registration, it is very easy to digitally die cut the shapes you want accurately and easily.
