What Settings for Cutting Sandblast Vinyl?

[Chris Wool]

untick the enable driver functions

set the plotter to conditions 5 (or one you don’t use)
set condition to force 20 ish
speed to 8
quality 3
offset to match the knife

if you have tangentel mode turn it on for that condition No.
tangental mode 1
overcut .3mm

then test cut and alter the pressure to suit
for low volume work does not have to be a 60 deg blade just corners may be a little sharper.

Thanks Chris

The only reason we use the ‘enable driver functions’ is so we can ‘Save as’ and give the settings a meaningful name. Angie finds it easier if I setup these setting for the different types of materials we use.

I can’t remember the last time we used the cutter’s front panel settings. Maybe I’m missing some other functionality and need to acquaint myself with the hardware.

Cheers
