Little info has been confirmed about the 15" Silhouette CAMEO Plus and 20" Silhouette CAMEO Pro and that's because there have been quite a few question marks on a release date and features.
First - let's clarify the names of all these new Silhouette machines. The new 12" cutter is called the Silhouette CAMEO 4.
The 15" Silhouette machine is called the CAMEO Plus. The 20" Silhouette machine is called the Silhouette CAMEO Pro.
Silhouette CAMEO Plus and Pro Features
While they are not officially called the 15" or 20" Silhouette CAMEO 4, I can finally confirm - the two bigger Silhouette machines will share all the same Silhouette CAMEO 4 features.The only difference is the size (and price)..it's like a stretched out CAMEO 4 complete with speeds up to 3x faster than the older Silhouette models and 5k grams of force in the smart tool dual carriage.
The CAMEO Plus and Pro machines will be available in white. Custom colors may also be available.
The 15" and 20" Silhouette CAMEO machine features include:
- Downward Force - up to 5kg (5000 g) to allow for the cutting of thicker materials
- Cutting Speed and Acceleration 3x Faster than CAMEO 3
- Ability to use Silhouette Rotary Blade
- Ability to use Silhouette Kraft Blade
- Single tap (to zero) AutoBlade
- Gear Driven Tool Carriage to accommodate Rotary Blade, Kraft Blade, and new Auto Blade
- Touch Panel
- Auto Tool Detection allows for the software and machine to detect if the tool in the carriage is a sketch pen, blade, auto blade, etc
- Built-in Pull Out Roll Feeder
- Retractable Cover

I'm looking for a machine that will cut larger stock hopefully the pro will do that for me I can't wait
ReplyDeleteCan anyone confirm/clarify please - if I upgrade to the Cameo Pro (20" width) what is the minimum width I can cut without a mat? Will my current 12" mats work at all with the 20" machine? I suppose the same questions would apply to the Cameo Plus (15" width), though that does not seem as appealing of an option to me truthfully.
ReplyDeleteThey should..but not confirmed yet
DeleteThanks so much! Hopefully all those details will be released at the same time (tomorrow!!!) and not trickle out as potential buyers inquire about them. :)
DeleteI'm most curious about using the CB09 blade - will it be possible to use it in any of the new machines?
ReplyDeleteMore details on September 10 :)
DeleteDo we have any details on the release of the Silhouette Pro?
ReplyDeleteCannot Wait for the Pro! Hopefully we in Namibia will be able to order!
