  • Cutting out a playing card using registration marks (ce5000)

    Posted by Mark Pearce on 21 May 2014 at 08:17

    Hi folks,
    I’ve got a project I’d like to do involving cutting some mock playing cards (now might be the time to mention I’ve never cut anything other than vinyl and never used registration marks!). The registration marks concept seems pretty straight forward and logical so my question is, is it possible to produce a nice clean and accurate cut on say 200gsm card stock?
    Any hints about how much force to use would be great too!

    Cheers, Mark.

    You will need to use some kind of carrier sheet if cutting card media, as you’ll be cutting completely through the sheet, can get them from any robocraft store (think MDP might sale them).

    probably the carrier sheet is favorate but some graphtecs have a buit in perf line in the condisions used it on paper to good effect.
