I think that getting an inexpensive unit would be a great learning experience. It should give you some insight on which capabilities you should focus on when you buy a commercial unit. IMHO, the most important part of CNC work is having a good solid hold down. And if done properly, you really...

I don't know if this applies to the VG-640. But, this has been my experience with a XC-540. I ordered dampers for my XC-540 from digiprint and they sent the one on the right of the image below. It has only one "spring bar" These failed to pump up properly or stay primed. and i began losing...

Inspect the Plastic Bulkhead on top of the print head. The nozzles that connect to the dampers are prone to cracking. A small crack in one can be hard to see but quite problematic.

This is Gerber. I wish they used generic control. But, they don't. I would have to replace ALL control hardware to be able to use those type parts. Im right there with you, though. I wish it was that easy. -Jay

Hey All, So, I don't see our Gerber router being replaced any time soon. But, the buttons on the control panel have been pushed many times and they are giving up. Has anyone made one of these? Gerber wants like $1200 for the insert. Yes, the insert alone is that much. I thought they had...

Using the pre-heater can cause expansion in the material that makes it buckle. I normally turn off my pre-heater for banner material and only run the "print" heater and the Dry Heater

My customer is wanting another one of these. I have no idea where to look for the frame. We make the inserts. I just need another Frame. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

+1 for Both Tape and Silicone. Tape to hold it while the silicone is drying. Silicone to hold long term. I never use just VHB for outdoor adhesion.

Arlon 6700 is made for conforming to masonry. But, If it is painted with this new Low VOC crap, then nothing will stick.

This has been covered Soooo many times. You can find lots of info on here and also just googling it. The basic Idea is that Chinese machines are not all bad. But, You can bet on receiving ZERO Support. Unless you know how to troubleshoot, and repair the machine yourself, then you should probably...

I know I will get flamed for this. But, I lost one of my springs and replaced it with one out of a ball point pen. It has been there working and sealing for 3 years now. That said. I DO NOT recommend this. Chances are it will not work as well as mine did.

We have made our own ADA Signage for years. It is getting harder and harder to compete with the larger ADA Manufacturers. Not to mention the investment in Router/Engraver, Raster License, Learning Curve, Software, etc.... At this point, I would NOT recommend to try to dip into this Very...

Watchfire offers several communication methods. The most popular nowadays is the wireless broadband. Give watchfire a call. They are very helpful.

Cut the tab???? whaat does that mean?

Supposedly, when exported or imported ( I don't remember which ) They have to strip the ranking off the head. So If you want a "ranked" Head, then you will have to buy from US Suppliers. And they will be $700+. *EDIT: Looks like they are cheaper now. You can get one from Digiprint for $500...

We have the same issue. We just do our best to limit prints to 16' or less. I know that doesn't help with the overnight issue,

XL Digital in Dallas. My contact is Meera Persad.

When mine did this, it was the plastic manifold on the head. The one the dampers connect to. Had a crack in it. Easy cheap fix

Looks like contamination on the vinyl
