  • Contravision film, Print and CUT

    Posted by Richard Urquhart on April 4, 2019 at 7:22 am

    Guys I cant remember this as not used it in ages, we need to cut these after printing in to circles and we can do this in the print and cut machine, however I did have a thought last night that they may catch the blade in the dots and rip while cutting? Has anyone had success cutting this film in a print and cut machine, thanks Rich :smiles:

    I don’t know if the machine will read the reg marks, could always cut by hand?

    guess clear laminate will hold it together better?

    I’ve had no problem cutting laminated contravision with our VG-640, but you might want to get a new cutting strip ready as the blade will cut into the existing one.
    I cut the circles and rectangle for the registration marks out of black vinyl and placed them over the printed ones.

    Had no problems cutting this on our machine. Give it a go on a test piece first.
