thanks i will have them check that

we have a TEC axxis digital label finisher and we having a cutting issue. getting pulling/dragging and not cutting consistently. i changed the blade, cleaned and oiled the blade holder. going to try replacing the holder wondering if anyone else has some ideas what might cause this ? thanks

we have roland, mimaki and efi printers and they all do the same thing. i asked our tech onetime and he gave me an answer that kind of made sense but really i think he didn't know either...haha he said it had something to do with the machine staying at the same speed to keep everything aligned...

another important factor is tech and supply support. make sure whichever printer you go with you have adequate tech/repair support and easy access to supplies. you can have the greatest printer in the world but if you run out of ink or the machine goes down then you aren't making money

to replace coro would need to know what you are making with it? if you use it for yard signs not sure there is another material you can use with step stakes. (they do have a paper/card stock or a plastic bag type of sign both go over the top of a U shaped stake. also polystyrene can be used...

if you can get it to rotate on the laminator hold a razor knife on it till it cuts all the way through. band saw, saws all all will work but the razor knife and laminator will work best. the other options melt the vinyl due to the speed of the blade

good to know thanks

not sure if they have what you are looking for or not but they are definitely an EFI dealer. we have bought two EFI printers from them and get our ink through them. you can reach out to my contact if you want or just call them and ask who ever answers i would say you are not wasting their time...

we get our EFI ink from Nazdar Michael Robinson mrobinson@nazdar.com reach out to mike, tell him Pete from product identification referred you. if he can't help you i am sure he can point you in the right direction

we have two clam shell die cutters and we bend/make steel rule dies. good for cutting coro for sure. we also have a router and probably use that more often to cut coro. depends on the quantity. lower qty goes on the router and higher qty we will die cut. the guillotine cutter i find will damage...

try nazdar or tyrrell tech both are roland dealers with multiple locations

you should shake your white ink everyday. the more white sits unused in any printer it shortens it's life span. also like signheremd said you should print a white bar or box from time to time to keep everything flowing properly. not saying i do this everyday but we are pretty regimented that it...

I THINK THERE ARE BRACKETS MOUNTED TO THE WOOD SLATS THAT THE SIGN IS BOLTED TO, SEE BOLT ON BOTTOM SHOULD BE SIMILAR BOLTS ON TOP. ROMOVE THOSE AND SIGN SHOULD COME OFF THEN YOU WILL BE ABLE TO SEE ALL THE GUTS FROM THE BACK

when we quote the job we will include a pretty good description of process and materials that usually avoids the questions. we are a decent size shop so don't usually get asked if we do everything in house but we have on occasion had to tell a customer that job was farmed out but can't say we...

i know even when you use specific UL rated floor laminate or vinyl it can still be slippery especially when it gets wet and you will have boxers sweating all over the vinyl and slipping so might want to pass on them or maybe you can have them sign some sort of waiver making you non-liable for...
