• Cutting a smooth line

    Posted by Kyle Bennett on November 24, 2009 at 7:27 am

    My Graphtec doesn’t appear to be able to cut a smooth line, it keeps leaving little notches where each bézier point would be in the drawings.

    Makes weeding small letters absolute hell!

    CE3000-120, any ideas?

    Check if the blade is rotating freely in the holder.

    Is the item you are cutting a continuous shape with bezier or is it imported from something else and the curves are actually hundreds of straight lines.

    Good point on the blade rotation, will give it a check

    It’s definitely being cut from Bézier curves directly from Illustrator, I’ve already tested the problem being on the points/nodes by drawing 2 circles, one a standard 4 node, and one with extra nodes placed and it just notches on each node
