  1. Sign Mounting Film?

    Looking for a roll of double sided adhesive film that can be used for installing dibond or pvc signs to interior doors. Needs to be permanent adhesive. Hoping to find something 48" roll that we can laminate to the back of 8'x4' sheets of ACM that will then be sheared down into 5"x3" signs. So...
  2. Bit cooling when cutting aluminum

    Does the aluminum to be routered have printed vinyl already applied to it? Have been looking into a router to pump out large orders of small 040 and 063 aluminum signs. We currently use a shear and pneumatic hole punch and corner rounder. Always curious how a router table would handle say...
  3. Setting up a sheet with crop marks in Onyx

    Are you adding in the trim marks on the corners of the signs using a macro? Making copies of the signs and arranging them with a macro? I use a few macros I've created in illustrator for bleeding and cutlines. Hadn't thought to try a macro for this type of situation. Care to explain your...
  4. ROLL-X or CWT questions

    We purchased a rollover a couple months ago. We didn't intend to do any laminating with it and haven't other than to try it out. It silvers more than a roll laminator, and really a roll laminator is a much better option for laminating. These tables excel in mounting prints and applying...
  5. Setting up a sheet with crop marks in Onyx

    So if we are doing 8"x4" signs, we print an 8'x4' print, 144 signs, and mount to a 8'x4' sheet of alum. We then shear down the sheet into 8"x4" signs. If you don't have bleed to on the perimeter, then everything else has to work out perfectly to get all 144 signs our of a sheet. You can't...
  6. Need Help Need help selecting laminator used only for applying transfer tape

    With the flatbed applicator we have found that after taping a sheet, roll past the graphic so that you can cut the tape behind the roller. We cut the tape on the graphic, taking some of the backing paper with it. Makes it easy to handle and sort of roll some more tape out and over the roller...
  7. Font ID Please

    Does anybody know this font?
  8. Wanted EPSON SURECOLOR 80600 LEAK - REPAIR NEEDED

    DO NOT BUY FROM DIGIPRINT!! Have been fighting with them for 3 months to get refunded for a part that took them over a month to ship to us. We tried canceling the order before we got the part because we needed it quicker. Month later the part came in. We contacted them got a return shipping...
  9. Dumb rant

    Damn that's brutal. Mine will error out pretty much as soon as it feels resistance. Wish it would just pause when this happens, so you could continue the print after cutting the vinyl from the core. Last night was a roll of phototex. Not something we do a ton of so I had about 10 yds left...
  10. Dumb rant

    Vinyl manufactures: Please stop gluing vinyl to the core. And if you do glue it, make sure it easily pulls off. I like burning a roll to the end, and too many times get caught off guard with a glued roll, needing just a couple more inches or like tonight, literally started printing my crop...
  11. Flywheel Press tooling

    Does anybody here use a flywheel press? What do you use for tooling?
  12. Alternative to Rtape

    We have been on the hunt for an Rtape replacement as well. Have gone through a couple 54" rolls of the scps 55. Definitely good stuff and sticks the best I've seen to air release vinyl liners. Pricey and limited availability on sizes for some dumb reason. But works. Extra tacky coming off...
  13. Flywheel Press tooling

    Looking to purchase a flywheel punch press. Want to speed up and ease the process of punching holes, and maybe rounding corners? Processing orders of (1000) small aluminum signs, each needing 4 holes and 4 corners, the arbor presses with accucutter and sign xpert tools hole punch and corner...
  14. Summa S2 T Series Dog Muck

    Damn dude. Did you try adding a second cutline? Skip the flex cut all together and just run the blade depth out further. Works much better than flex cut on any machine.
  15. Think of it this way....

    Daily new cases doesn't really tell the story. You have to look at daily deaths. The rate of testing is all over the place. In the beginning there were hardly any tests, now there are an abundance and a lot more people getting tested. And a lot of those tests are antibody, which means they...
  16. Deciding on a flatbed Laminator

    I have another thread going about the getting the rollover installed and my experience with it so far. We love it so far, couple hiccups to get started. Which I believe is mainly due to the royal soverign/rollover relationship. Based on our install, royal soverign hasn't installed many...
  17. Why no Onyx forum?

    I think it would be a good addition. Was going to cruise through the onyx sub forum last night to get a feel for any features of the software that I may be missing out on. But there wasn't one. Can just search, which I did, but a designated forum might be beneficial.
  18. Got our Flatbed Aplicator in - Tips?

    Started a new thread when we got it. Time to update. We finally got the core adapters in yesterday. They make a huge difference for applying 48" and 54" rolls of tape. Don't have to worry about the roll jumping off, takes less effort to move the gantry, and easier to web up when the roll is...
  19. Why no Onyx forum?

    I guess I meant sub forum, on signs101.
  20. Why no Onyx forum?

    Title pretty much says it. can we add an Onyx forum? I mean there is one for Graphic Tracer...
