Lol. Trolls will be Trolls I guess..

Start a new thread.. Ask a question..

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...

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...

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

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

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...

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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...

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

Most of the 408s I've seen have been upgraded with ball nuts, some still use acme thread screws - these use a 2 part nut with a spring to remove backlash. It basically pushes both parts apart to take out play.. What would you might have is debris in the nut, or the spring might have lost...

Fingers crossed.. Tbh most things are "relatively" Simple. The nut should run very smoothly.. Ball nuts have a propensity to collect gunk - quite a few YouTube videos on how to clean and reassemble. Likewise linear bearings work in the same way. Could be a combination of things where old...

Can be either drivers or psu - faster movement = more power required. When they're getting past their sell by date which this one will be, they tend to loose capacitance so more ripple gets onto the line. However..that said, as you said it only happens one way - I'd still think it might be a...

Should say ac ripple not a ripple - autocorrect is the bane of my life. Lol

Hmm.. I would think that one of the gears or sensors is loose - almost acting as a one way ratchet due to wear. Going by the issue I'd think it would be one secured by a screw as with wear, that could give rise to such an issue. Another possibility could be if it's not level, combined with a...
