We used Postershop 22 for 2 years with good results. Upgraded in January. We're having so many problems with Thrive 24 it's completely ridiculous. We use Onyx RIP to send print files to our Epsons and Cut files to Go Produce.
1. Onyx was adding the random, duplicate reg marks and we couldn't...
There is indeed one additional screw to the right when looking up. It was pretty easy to take off and re-apply the clear plastic. Just ran a new job and NO HEAD STRIKES!!! Thanks again!
Thanks for this post. Like the original post, we were having the head strike problem as well. Today, when checking the plastic cover, it just fell off. The double sided tape around the edge was kinda gooey.
I cleaned the clear plastic and ready to try and reapply it. I need to clean the bottom...
We have an S40 and just started having a similar issue. We haven't had this happen so often in 3 years.
I've increased the Platten Gap to the max, increased vacuum to the max, increased tension. Ive also decreaed the preheat and platten heat. All of that has helped a little but not solved the...
I did notice laminate tension was a factor for tunneling.
We see it on unlaminatined stick as well. I do tie down the feed roll. I'll check the feed speed. I didn't know that was an option. Thanks!!
Sorry, I should have been more specific on not cutting well. Perhaps, I have two issues. If there is ever one of those bubbles in the media on the table (this seems to happen more often than I would like), when the knife has the plastic cap installed, it will travel over the area and still cut...
Hello everyone! We've had our 1612 for a few months. We ust started running into a problem with the plastic guide cover on the double edge knife scratching prints that are not laminated. Specifically, pop-up banner material. I've cleaned the plastic and that helps, but eventually ink will build...
We've had the S40 for about 5 years now. I would certainly buy another I highly recommend it. We use it for banners, posters and different types of adhesive vinyl.
I find cut vinyl pricing to be one of the most difficult things to have standard pricing on.
We charge material plus markup + file and machine setup + square ft cutting area + weeding and masking. The weeding is by far the biggest variable. We have three categories of weeding (basic...
Thanks for the tips and tricks. I'll give them a shot. I'm fairly certain something is wrong with the machine. Yes, I'm rusty but the problem keeps getting worse. I will look deeper into the pressures over the weekend. I don't have feeler gauges here at the moment.
We square the lead edge one...
Here are a few images. Looking at the viny print, not the laminate. Feeding starts without issue but after a few feet, the print starts to bunch up. Thinking it could be a roller issue but not sure.
Hey all, hoping someone can assist. Our main production person quit and I've been relearning basic print and laminating techniques. I've been having a problem with printed vinyl 'bunching" and rippling while laminating. I'm not sure if it's a machine problem or operator problem. It's worse on...
The price as quoted with delivery and training is $106,420.00. The Summa F1612 price I got (with standard router) was $60,000. Have you seen prices on either of these machines?
