AngrySysAdmin 0 Posted August 22 Hello. I'm new user of this plotter, bought it used. When cutting something that requiring constant precision for example stickers each sticker cut is little drifts(see photo). Is this software or hardware problem, or feature :)? I think the problem is may be in belts/gears. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darcshadow 1,640 Posted August 22 MH's are pretty much the bottom of the barrel of cutters. They are great to introduce you to the world of cutting and if you really take your time to dial in everything they can cut well but drifting/tracking is always a problem and there's nothing you can really do about it. The fact that you were able to get it all as close as you did is pretty impressive actually. To get the level of precision you're after you need to look for a cutter that uses a solenoid driver rather than stepper motors. The difference in performance between the two type of actuators is amazing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
