It can be blade knife offset issue or there may be some setting in inkscape wherein the files are not cut to 100%, try exploring if there is any. I had the same in Flexi 10, and setting it to 100 % corrected the problem. Check your knife holder. Can the blade spin freely into the holder? Check the file as well. Can you assure there are no hidden strokes or shapes which are not visible in inkspace?

Try this. you need to smoothen up the file a bit, scale it to size and you are ready to go 20210913_121455.thumb.jpg.dc0afa498a1953dfc4f3a81a0f3ead79.pdf

Try font matching sites like Fontsquirrel or Fontmatcherator. I strongly believe there are three different fonts. If this doesn't work, try tracing it

Hello everyone I bought this application tape through facebook marketplace over here in melbourne (Australia). The tape says RTape Application tape 4076 (Paper). The address it says is for New Jersey with the site mentioned as rtape.eu not working I could not find any mention about this Rtape. I have two queries: 1. Is this an old logo for RTape 2. The tape label says RTape Aplitape 4076. Any idea whether this tape is a medium tack or ahigh tack tape please? It has a fair bit of tack but the guy was clueless about whether it is a medium tack or a high tack tape. Photo attached for you to look at

I tried that tape yesterday. It seems it works a way better than Medium tack tape. The sticking in between the tape and the decal is strong. Does it mean I need to be more gentle and slow while peeling it off after installation? Any idea?

Hello all I own a budget Creation Pcut CT630 (Red and Black ) machine bought 6 years ago. With the machine connected through RS232 9 pin adapter and a desktop entirely dedicated to the machine, blade already set up as per Skeeter's instructions and cutting fine with a downforce of 120 and cutting speed of 40 (small sized detailed designs) on Heat Transfer Vinyls. My question: Is it normal for a cutter to stall in the middle of the program and show as "Write Port Error" when a lengthy program is fed through the Production manager? How likely it is to be caused due to the cutting speed being too slow? It doesn't happen often but it happened twice this morning Any inputs please?

Agreed

Yes mate, I tried with cutting speed to 50 and it has been working fine but the machine makes a lot of jerky movements as the curves are a bit smaller for being cut at high speeds. I guess you are right, the memory buffer or the ram chip thing on the motherboard might be a bit smaller for the file which does not like to hold the file for long

I use Flexi 10 basic version. I usually import files as dxf straight into flexi 10 and when I make something in flexi or type something, it shows up with a different line colour or layer. Production manager will not show multiple colours at the same time and as such, it won't cut them either. So, either you need to let the cutter know to cut both, as Haumana said or change whatever you want to cut in the program to one colour. I hope these photos will clarify what I want to say

Try using a serial port instead of USB. I got to using serial port after stuffing up some expensive vinyl through USB port. You cutter might have a 9 pin RS232 oir some other port on to the side. Give this thing a go

Use pedit command before saving it as a dxf in autocad. Type pedit>> select any part of the shape.. Click yes if it asks you whether you want to make it as on>>> select Join or type J and then select whole of the shape and press enter. It should be selected as one shape when you select it after that

HI mate Give this file a try on your cutter. See what happens. Do not ungroup the shapes. Hopefully this will cut continuously as a single path memorabillia.ai memorabillia.pdf memorabillia.dxf

Which software are you using mate? I have been using Flexi 10 basic version and importing dxf straight into it. I never had any problems.

OK. If you happen to have a 48" wide media with more than 2 pinch rollers in place at a time, please make sure you start from one end and clamp them down in the sequence. A lot times, entrapment of some air in between the cinyl and the knurled roller may cause the vinyl not to move in a straight line or in a flat plane, causing it to bow. I guess we all would like a video to see from the time you start clamping to when it starts to bow. If you do not mind, please share it sometime. I guess someone among us will definitely be able to figure out why it is happening if it is seen when happening

Are you using a USB port to communicate with the cutter?

However, there can be another thing The pressure on the pinch rollers may not be uniform. Did you happen to tighten the tension of the pinch rollers or did something with the adjustment screws if any on the machine? OR if the rubbers on the rollers do not wear out equally. Did you happen to replace any of the roller rubber recently? I would do all the rollers at once if I had to

Looks like your knife offset is way too high. We normally start with .25 in millimeters for a 45 deg blade and we keep on decreasing it in case it cuts the corners like you sent or increase it corners appear to be rounded or digging in

As skeeter said, data transmission and quality does get affected by the length or distance it has to travel. It's always better to keep the cables smallest possible

I would put up thin lines in between the stars so the stars get joined to each other. That way when you start to peel the first star, after it comes off, it will pull that line as well. So, even it breaks, you will have a bit of lifted up vinyl to grab other star. Also, it will save your cutter head from going up down up down for all the stars. Look at this picture and see the beads in the bottom. The client wanted a combination of full colour and empty beads. The same things was for the 5 holes of the instrument above that. The cutter was able to cut all the rings as 1 shape. The join line is just 0.2 mm thick. See if this trick works

It has been done with a household iron switched to its maximum heat setting and peeling it when warm. After the fabric went cold, I pressed it with the iron again twice within next 12 hours with a piece of pure cotton cloth in between the fabriuc/design and iron. I did another one similar 4 years ago and didn't have any complaints from the client. Hope you go ahead with the job but be careful not to subject it to a very hot machine wash and not to iron directly on to the decal. The person was too happy that he got such a detailed design being able to be made as a sticker and not a print

It looks like a chinese imitation of a vevor branded cutter

Yes it can be done. Mirror the image and cut with the shiny side down. You may have to use a bit higher downforce and slow speed I have done HTV with no issues. Have a look at this recent project While weeding, you need to sit in a well lighted room and use a hook type tool for weeding Good luck

No probs bud

As everyone suggested, go for a serial cable, a 9 pin RS232 adapter. If yours is a red and black CT 630 it would be on the same side otherwise it may be on opposite side to each other. But definitely, USB ports are not reliable. Not only they create problems in communication, but from my experience, they cause the machines to go random during cutting thereby ruining the vinyl many a times. My cutter came in with a brief set of instructions and while setting it up, I was stumbled by Three main things: 1. USB and serial port cables (I am using serial port cable and have had no issues since then) 2. Baud Rate: The value you get on the cutter screen and the value you set in the cutting manager section of your cutting software has to match 3. COM port. Try fiddling around with the different COM ports on the computer and the cutter's production manager. Lastly, try hooking a low memory Desktop to the cutter rather than a laptop so it can stay comfortably connected to the cutter Good Luck
