Powerful Features & Creative Flexibility
Fast, Precise Cutting for Any Project
The Cameo 5a delivers smooth, accurate cuts. It handles delicate paper as well as thicker materials. You can work with vinyl, self-adhesive foil, HTV, heat-transfer sheets, cardstock, fabric, felt, leather and more.
Print & Cut, Sketching, Embossing and More
Thanks to improved registration mark reading (4-point), Print & Cut designs align perfectly — even if the print is slightly off.
With the dual carriage, you can draw/sketch and cut in one pass. You also have the option to add tools later — such as embossing, heat-pen (for foiling), or rotary blade for fabric and leather.
Wide Cutting Area and Long-Length Cuts
With the mat, you get a 12 inch × 24 inch cutting area.
With the roll feeder, you can cut continuous material up to 16 feet (≈ 4.87 m) long — perfect for banners, long decals, repeated designs, or bulk projects.
Easy Connectivity and Software Support
The machine connects via USB or Bluetooth, giving you flexible options for different workspaces.
It runs with Silhouette Studio — the free, easy-to-use software included. With the software you can design or import .svg/.studio files, adjust settings, then send directly to the machine.
