  1. S2 Kiss Cut and Die Cut in one pass

    Need to setup a kiss cut and thru cut path separately or you can skip the kiss cut and use the cut line as a thru cut. You do it in gosign
  2. Question Ford Transit sealant between panels

    I think most of them are painted, seam sealer goes on before painting. I usually cut them but don't trim it back. I have no formal training so take that with a grain of salt.
  3. Experience with Summa S class 2??

    We just got one with the OPOS cam, it is very impressive.
  4. White vinyl with air channels and clear adhesive

    It's clear and believe it or not, 100% opaque. After using this material for a few years, I prefer the clear adhesive over gray.
  5. Cutting laminated material

    Put a drop of oil in the blade holder. +1 on OEM Mimaki blades, they are pricey but last forever. I used to use the generic blades on another machine and would have to change them all of the time. On our CJV, the pressure for 6.5 mil cal vinyl/lam is usually in the 120-130 range and it cuts...
  6. Rant Customer Rant

    It took a lot of restraint to not post that clip again for the 100th time
  7. Cutting laminated material

    Name checks out. 100g isnt going to make it go out of alignment.
  8. Onyx RIP issue

    Did you smash the keyboard typing that?
  9. UV ink and vehicle wraps

    Makes my blood boil.
  10. Just got the Roland Tru VIS MG UV, considering air scrubber for smell does it work?

    The best part of designing your own setup is going overboard with it. It's a personal challenge and looks like your engineer nailed it. Must have been a pretty smart dude.
  11. Just got the Roland Tru VIS MG UV, considering air scrubber for smell does it work?

    You should try to run a couple of Pentek big blue filters for your water source, they have a bunch of different cartridge filters for them. Put a charcoal filter as the final one in line to remove any chlorine, assuming you have city water. That may cut down on the corrosion.

    It looks like a swamp cooler with better flow control. Cool setup. Did they have a company engineer the print room ventilation system or did you all figure it out through trial and error?
  13. Recommendation for a new print cut machine

    If you're not laminating, I'd get a Mimaki UCJV UV roll printer
  14. Stomp shear vs panel saw

    All we use is a shear, cuts perfect like a factory edge and doesn't crush the material. We've used stomp shears, a small hydraulic shear and large 12' hydraulic shears that can do 1/2" plate. If you get a bad edge, you need to adjust the blade gap.
  15. Just got the Roland Tru VIS MG UV, considering air scrubber for smell does it work?

    You also need to remember, as Johnny said, smell isn't the indicator of danger. Many dangerous chemical compounds have no smell, like isocyanates. It's absorbed through your skin, your eyes and respiration but there is no smell, no burn, no nausea, no headaches, basically no indicators that it...
  16. Just got the Roland Tru VIS MG UV, considering air scrubber for smell does it work?

    Nervous system damage is the main concern. Most, if not all, of the chemicals that are used in printing/painting warn of this. AFAIK, it's slow and cumulative so the damage won't typically show until much later in life and by then you can't go backwards in time and reverse it. Masks, fume...
