Cutting letters

Recommended Posts

Looking for some tips when it comes to cutting small letters.  My cutter seems to tear the lettering out.  Only happens with small fine print letters.  I have the cutter set at: pressure 140 speed 60.  I have tried cutting at slower speeds and with less pressure but still get the same results.  Only happens with small or fine detailed lettering.  I use Oracle 651 and brand new Roland Blades.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

check your blade depth.

Blade depth should be good, it cuts everything else perfectly.  Should I give it more blade or less?  I have about half a credit card depth right now.

Sounds like you have the depth of the blade right. I would try slowing the speed down as low as possible.

Slow the cut speed down, or maybe try a 60degree blade.

Will try that out ken, hey by the way never got a chance to thank you for all your help with the cutting strip.  Thanks!
