bcxprint 0 Posted September 7, 2011 hard to explain but i can here it in the file when it cuts... my cutter every time it gets to the end of a letter or whatever instead of completing it and moving on it makes this little mark like a serif almost I have changed the blade adjusted the depth adjusted the pressure adjusted the odset nothing works it seems to be in thfile which I am using flexi 8.6 and it is running an imported ai file but I think it doesnt matter on the file if i create it in flexi or import it.

bcxprint 0 Posted September 7, 2011 SURE THING HERE IS A FILE A RAN A WHILE AGO ITS ACTUALLY CUT AS A REVERSE BUT YOU GET THE IDEA ITS DOING THIS ON EVERY THING I CUT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted September 7, 2011 looks like blade offset problem to me. Also, make sure there is not any scrap pieces of vinyl in the blade holder. and that the blade spins freely. Are you adjusting the blade offset in Flexi? You should be. and Flexi is in inches, not mm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcxprint 0 Posted September 7, 2011 ive been adjusting it both in flexi and on e machine actually.. dos it seem too low too high? and there is no vinyl in the blade holder but there was but after cleaning it I still have the same result.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your welcome.Yes.05 is way too high.. should be closer to .019in... you can adjust at .005 intervals + or minus to see it you can get it just right. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcxprint 0 Posted September 7, 2011 thanks for the tip... I am going to take it to .019 I had it at .025 and it ran pretty good no problems really but maybe it could be a touch cleaner? thanks for the help I appreciate it very much.. Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
