  3. Gerber Edge FX printing 1200dpi in flexi possible?

    This thread was started in 2022.. youve just reopened it and not even put a question in.. Read my answer.. "but if the software doesn't have the option.. You can't use it.." Unless the printers firmware has been updated you can't use hires.. If your software doesn't have the option.. You...

  4. Gerber Edge FX printing 1200dpi in flexi possible?

    First off it's rude to SHOUT.. All capitals is SHOUTING.. 2nd.. ICC profiles are for color management, not resolution. You need to change profiles if you change resolution as it affects how colour is reproduced, but the profiles themselves don't change the resolution which is what the OP...

  5. ArtCAM file conversion

    Do you mean make tool paths, or just convert file formats?

  6. ArtCAM file conversion

    Sure.. Ping me the file.. I've got the latest (last) version so should cope with lower versions.

  7. pattern making from 3d model, exactflat or alternitives

    Uv unwrapping Works great from my experience as it generates UV maps.. Remember you're working from 3d scan data, digitally painting the desired area and then extracting the 2d representation of that using the UV unwrap which most 3d design packages can do. You paint each section a different...

  8. pattern making from 3d model, exactflat or alternitives

    Forgot to add.. For this scenario - first paint each section a different colour, then when you unwrap it you know how to cut everything. Once you've done that you can do the actual design. Then simply overlay your cuts in signlab, etc.

  9. pattern making from 3d model, exactflat or alternitives

    Best thing I do is scan the item in with a 3d scanner, use mudbox or similar to "paint" - then do a uv unwrap in the same program to flatten it. That way any distortion is taken care of and it's easy to design.. Plus.. It's a lot cheaper than exact flat for everything.

  10. Vinyl for easy apply labels with no lam

    What temperature is he placing / using them? Adhesives often get soft when hot, so hot bottles, hot truck + stiffish vinyl will result in curling

    Silvering Patches

    Just be careful when buying the same laminate.. Check the batch numbers.. Somethings wrong with their equipment.

    Silvering Patches

    Cut a few feet off.. Flip it around and run it through the laminator.. See if the silvering switches place. If it doesnt it's the laminator

  13. Need Help System 48 - X Y stepper motors not responding

    Could be a psu problem. Prob bad caps.. Are they getting warm? Try disconnecting the cables from 1 and see if it moves freely. If you've got a mains detector pen, it can help see if there's ac ripple on dc lines

  14. Gerber 408: Y-axis error when travelling at speed

    They are very simple things.. Essentially just two nuts with a spring pushing them apart to take up the backlash.. The spring force must be enough to cover any forces exerted by the system. If the two nuts are forced to move by external friction (gunk, wear, etc), then the locking force will...

  15. Gerber 408: Y-axis error when travelling at speed

    This shows a similar type of nut to give you the idea of how it works
