  1. Ali express is where I got these strips from. If I put something underneath the 1.5 mm strip to increase its height, it may not fit into the channel as the strip is not glued but inserted into the channel.
  2. Hi everyone Has anyone got any idea wherein I can get the teflon strip for this cutter which is about 2 mm thick and less than 8 mm in width? The strip need not be glued or fixed using double sided tape but inserted into the channel made next to the ruler. The strips I got from the company are 1.5 mm but the one on the cutter is 2 mm. Thus the vinyl is not cutting properly. Any help would be greatly appreciated

    15 years, looks like you looked after the machine quite well. Yes, they do wear out but you can prolong their life by regularly cleaning them, not keeping them pressed for long time and some other easy tips which can be done in the spare time

    When I bought this machine back in 2015, i was habitual of keeping the rollers pressed on to the grit rollers, sometimes with or sometimes without the vinyl film in between them. It caused the rubber to deform over a period of time. What I have learnt is not to keep rollers pressed for long Yes, I only changed the rubber rollers, not the whole assembly. I found them on Ali express. The machine I have had 17 mm dia and 10 mm wide rollers with 4 mm as the bearing's ID. They were held on to the assembly using a pin going through the bearing hole with a circlip at each end of the pin.I took the circlip out, pulled the pin from one side, pulled the old roller, pout a new one in, pushed the pin through and refixed the circlip. Otherwise, you can get a complete assembly as well which you need to insert from one side of the machine Please have a look at the photos

    It is due to worn out pinch rollers. I have put new ones in.

    Help with removal

    If it is perforated material, it should come off quite easily provided you have got a steady pull of the hand and the vinyl hadn't gone past the shelf life or got damaged due to prolonged exposure to the sun, the latter is obviously beyond control as it can'y be judged. However, most likely, your guess of perforated mayerial or one way vision vinyl seems to be quite logical. But as ai said one way vision vinyl comes off quite easily provided you have a steady hand and pull it out on a warm day. Otherwise us heat gun a try

    Most of the times, pictures don't attach as they are quite bigger in size due to ever improving camera lens over the phone. A good idea is to compress the pictures using an online compressor tool or resize them.

    Vehicle Wrap Horror Stories??

    were you doing vehicle wrap in open air? For wrapping, it is recommended to do under a shed with a clean ground. Cast vinyl is a bit harder to deal with than calendered vinyl. It is preferable to have an enclosed factory space for the same

    Flexi not sending to cutter

    Is the WRITE PORT ERROR happening in between the cutting program or the cutting is not able to start???? In former case, it would be due to a long program being run at slow speeds or static charge messing up with the cutter. Believe me, I have chinese version of creation pcut ct630 with flexi 10 starter and I usually have the issues every now and then. In latter case, it would be due to the unreliability of a USB adapter. See if you can get a serial port to serial port cable and use it to communicate with the machine. Also, as Skeeter said, try not to go for COM PORT higher than 4.
  10. I have a workstation that has an old configuration just enough to keep the machine going without any unrequired movements. believe me, a cheap workstation with a usb hub hooked on for transferring the files using flash drives works wonders
  11. Also,whenever you cut the media that has the tendency to do such weird things, please stay near it and looks for some abnormal movements or sounds. If this problem is due to the machine losing position due to some motherboard component malfunctioning, improper connection or static charge present in the vinyl roll itself, it will make some abnormal sounds before messing the cuts up. There happen to be many posts encouraging people to switch to Serial Connection ports rather than USB Ports. In case you don't happen to find a suitable cable, try getting Tripp life Keyspan adapter that can connect the serial port to the computer In the meantime, I will have a look at the file
  12. If this is how your cutter looks from the side, the port on the extreme left hand side that has RS232 is the serial port. I have the same 9 pin port on my creation CT630 Pcut
  13. It will have a serial port, most of the times, very next to the USB port. The only different thing is, the type of port it has, whether a 9 pin port or a 15 pin port. I will give your file a go, its just, I am struggling to open vdoc files as I do not have the software with me. But, I will have a look at the file. The only reason I asked to have a look at the file is most of the times, it comes with a lot of hidden layers whenever we work straight from the client files.
