My new Summa S2 75 - Adjust gram.

[Vegaaard]

Hello. i wondering about what " gram " people are cutting standard vinyl on.
I use Oracal 751C , the machine i standard set to 90 grams, have tried to set up to 110, but the result is not better.
what are you use on standard vinyl?

Cutting speed is 500

It can depend a lot of if your blade is new, dull, or nicked. With a good blade I would think 90-110 would be more than enough, so you may have other issues if that doesn't do it. There's no reason not to try 50 or 150 though, and see of that changes anything. I'd also lower the speed to 400 just to see if that's helpful as well.

If you describe the problem in a little bit more detail, folks on here may have better suggestions.

make sure your blade is extended enough and that it's calibrated properly. I usually pick my toughest material to cut when I set the blade depth, get that one working, then work on the rest by only changing the pressure.

I perform a series of test cuts each time I go to cut, or change up the vinyl I'm cutting.
