SC model cutting wierd

Recommended Posts

My plotters main issue is my cut lines are wobbly and not connecting at times. My fonts are in outlines. A circle looks more like a wobbly blob. Even my "test cut" does not have straight lines and does not end correctly so i dont think its the program, is something wrong with the carriage? Anybody know how to fix?

Can you post a pic of results?

If your test is cut from the cutter- not the menu and its messed up--- its mechanical.

Check blade depth, not too much, blade secured in holder, with cutter off, check carriage for slop left- right up down- should be little to none.

Take out blade holder see if blade spins freely without slop....

Check pinch rollers- set the same and vinyl is secure, ...

Make sure that the white wheels of the carriage head are firmly down in the track, Make sure that the carriage head moves smoothly left and right in the track. Sometimes the carriage head jumps out of the track when shipped.

Also make sure that your pinch roller is not in the center of the machine where the white *upside down U* is - a space of about an inch and a half.  There is no feed roller under there so the pinch roller would not do it*s job.

And welcome aboard!
