for smaller quantities on hand routers and table saws i often sandwich the material i want cut as best i can between "sacrificial" materials.
so i have firm pressure on both sides as i run it through.
depending on your blade CEL and angle you are slicing through various densities of materials.
you also have to keep in mind that the the thickness of the adhesive on the vinyl allows for a semi-shifting layer that can move and then pop instead of a smooth cut.
I would check my blade and use...
before moving to technical services i was an operator for a while.
For those pieces in the corners, sometimes i dont cut them all the way thru or use tape for some select high spots on the cutting mat to give myself some spots the better strip from.
it is usually better to manually sand a...
this type of material, like masonite is a pain.
it is rather messy and can eat up tooling.
if a clean smooth edge is not required i would consider a larger diameter down bit and increase the gutter spacing between pieces.
down bit will knock don some of the fuzzy aspects of the cuts.
i would...
The metal on metal of the standard design can take some abuse. What application are you typically using this tool for?
What part is broken or keeps breaking, the drive shaft, bearing, motor etc?
If you are looking for more of a retofit, i am sure parts from application table glide beams can be purchased on their own.
Even ones with 1.7m width could have the sides of the glide beam assemblies modified with some brackets or different style of shoulder/flange bearing assemblies.
then you...
Vision systems are a pretty good fit for the budget and application.
Looking to do too much with one thing is common .
We see many customers look to upgrade their larger cutting tables with braille options.
For mass production, there are specific platforms for that.
Intermediate quantities on...
Hello.
Leon can get in contact with you guys tomorrow morning.
As a general rule we try to use the shortest tool for each job to minimize deflection with blades and or vibration when in router cutting projects.
There are a variety of factors with materials as well which include:
- where the...
For what you are looking for there are more smaller format platforms that use more standard drag knife cutting.
They are various tooling options with some having sheet-fed and roll options.
Vivid markets Signajet which seems to be doing well. There are several other ones too that are similar in...

- Mark Setting
- Compensation Method.
I would still calibrate the camera and that info is on their website for registered users.

You shoudl double check your camera calibration settings. Your Colex Cut Center or Optiscout should have multiple registration compensation factors in the output menu for favoring the distortion or the actual shape and size of the output file. These are stock options. Outside of the tensioning...
While pre cut pieces are ideal, there are coated tooling options to make this easier for you.
The main thing would be the type of alloy.
If this isnt printed you could consider spraying some alcohol on it during cutting to reduce chances of chip fusing during the initial plunge of the shapes...
besides different adhesive options, when we do custom projects on things like acrylic we either skim the intended mounting points with the cnc router first to skuff up the surface a bit or we use printing promoter to prep and soften the surface on the intended adhering points for something extra...
For many proofs, I always like to use SolidWorks. Since we provided scaled drawings for many things I would just import the letters and extrude them up and snap dims to all the features that were relevant.
A lot of the growing new XY cutters still need some work. For XY it is best to stick with Italy for the Fotoba and Flexa cutters.
One of the main reasons Fotoba is more expensive is there are more components in it. The DigiTrim function on Fotobas are nice. There are a lot of boards and parts...
