Messed up cuts with SignCut & MH721
kenimes replied to dawm's topic in USCutter Refine Cutting Plotter Discussion
Looks like an offset setting in SingCut. Uninstall it, and reinstall it to get back to default settings. -
wot driver do i use for my refine eh721 for use with flexisign
kenimes replied to benb's topic in USCutter Refine Cutting Plotter Discussion
Not sure about the EH version, but if it were an MH, I would try the Roland PNC-1000 driver in Flexi. -

kenimes replied to banzaimini1's topic in Creation PCUT Cutting Plotter Support Requests
Yea- the funny Chinese have made "improvements" to the carriage arm on the PCut's, so if you have an older version, and a newer version of the unit, you will not be able to swap them unfortunately. Probably need to see if USCutter has a replacement for you- good luck. As for the perforating issue- these units are really touchy: hardly any of the blade should be exposed from the blade holder- I mean, you should barely be able to see any blade sticking out at all. Too much blade sticking out would cause this issue. Adjusting the pressure alone will not resolve it, if the blade depth is not set right. Again, good luck! -
Several potential customers have asked if our cutters will cut 2-7mil vinyl because the specs say 1mm max thickness. To clarify: 1mm = 39.3700787 mils

Nice- glad you found that cable. -

Is it worth it to upgrade? seikitech 870t to copam cp-2500
kenimes replied to QuickAvenger's topic in Pre-sale questions
I would take a Copam over a Seiki any day. Can't say whether it is more or less accurate than a Seiki- because I only have experience with the Copams. Any cutter from any manufacturer could have an issue some time or another- but I know the Copams are built more solid. -

Maybe it does not like COM4. Unplug the USB cable, then plug it in to a different USB port on the computer. See if it is assigned a different COM #, and then select the new COM # in SignBlazer. If SignBlazer freezes to the point of having to reboot the computer- unplugging the USB cable from the computer will free it up alot of times. -
I had a Bell protect my melon on one particular occasion- they are well worth the extra $$.

PCUT 50" Not finishing cuts and not consistent with cuts
kenimes replied to datoshway's topic in Creation PCUT Cutting Plotter Discussion
Make sure there is no play in the feed rollers perhaps? Each feed rollers has a few screws to tighten on each end, if they were to get loose. -
Shoddy Chinese design and technology. After everything you have tried- a new motherboard is the next step I would try- leaning towards a memory problem as well- buffer issue maybe.

Blessings indeed! Nothing else has popped up thank goodness. Am due to go back in for another checkup in Feb. though (fingers crossed). No need to thank me. Although appreciated, it is thanks enough knowing I am helping those who need it, whenever possible. Nice to see how big this place is now. Thinking of getting my own cutter early next year, so I have been on a bit more lately.

USB connection by chance? Does the PCut have a 9-pin Serial connection?
-
It is unfortunate to be in that situation. Anytime someone spends $1250 on a roll of material, and only a few hundred on the machine to cut that material, is only setting themselves up for heartache. Hopefully the replacement is up to snuff.

Ken leaving USCutter was tough on all of us , even harder on John & several other members who had personal contact with him . Ken was & is a grreat guy . Things change & anybody coming into that position would have a couple strikes against them sort of like a step-parent coming into a situation . I know there is much more that goes on besides what is written on this forum . I don't know what went on, but hope everybody can bury the proverbial hatchet ..... & I do mean proverbial . I think it is best left alone , I just wanted to know if that was Brandon in the video . Bringing the unpleasant stuff up is like stirring crap , only makes it stink more . I have had friends who I could have buried a different kind of hatchet .. but the issues got resolved & the relationship went on in good terms , Time does help heal things . Aww shucks, thanks Rodger! I am still here though!!

Yet another Copam tracking anomaly
kenimes replied to markmystuff's topic in Copam Cutting Plotter Discussion
Can you tell if the material is slipping on the skewed side? Maybe some crud on the feed roller? After swapping the pinch rollers around and getting the same side to skew- my next thought would be the feed roller on that particular side. -

kenimes replied to benb's topic in USCutter Refine Cutting Plotter Discussion
Which make and model of cutter did you have selected in Flexi? -
If it is not a static issue- probably need to replace the carriage.

measuring problems
kenimes replied to pukingdeserthobo's topic in Copam Cutting Plotter Support Requests
And sometimes if the material is not laying perfectly flat, say maybe it bows up a little, the "eye" may not notice it. -
PCUT Cutting Weird Text
kenimes replied to avendano27's topic in Creation PCUT Cutting Plotter Support Requests
If the carriage is secure, also check to make sure the feed rollers are tight- no play in those puppies. -

Also, more downforce pressure, and less blade exposed will help. Might take a little "dialing" the pressure and blade in to get smooth cutting results. -
Vinyl Cutter Cuts backwards now!
kenimes replied to pillser99's topic in LaserPoint Cutting Plotter Support Requests
Try cutting the file, without any weed options enabled. As for the having to reboot your computer when it freezes- you might be able to get around that by unplugging the USB cable. This may free up your SignBlazer, so you do not have to reboot the whole computer. -
SIGNCUT UNEXPECTEDLY QUITTING ON MAC..

Have you tried opening SignCut directly, without the shortcut through Illy? -
MH 871 screen is lit up but no display..HELP!!!
kenimes replied to gasman37's topic in USCutter Refine Cutting Plotter Support Requests
Probably the little plastic clips that secure the motherboard to the bottom panel snapped loose, and the MB is touching the bottom metal panel now. Might just need new clips- might need a new MB. Cheers!
