  2. Any Corel Gurus here?

    Looking at the screenshot photo it appears that you are running the OEM version of Corel which may be why some of the features/tools are unavailable. Corel has a forum on their website where many have posted about limitations using the OEM version, so I would maybe read through those to see if...
  3. T160 Problem

    Not sure why you are being argumentative when I am simply trying to help by offering up suggestions. If you want to continue cutting the way you would prefer then go for it. Just offering pointers based on years of experience with these cutters. Best regards, Phil Johnson Summa Inc.
  4. T160 Problem

    You are able to make much more fine tuned adjustments that are more controllable when adjusting the pressure versus the depth. The depth is a manual adjustment subject to the operator of the cutter setting it the same each time and if you use too much or too little blade depth the cut quality...
  5. T160 Problem

    As was mentioned previously by Snydo, I suspect that there is too much blade depth and not enough pressure. The pressure setting I use for similar materials is typically 80-100 grams, so the pressure seems a bit too low. Optimal blade depth on the tangential plotters is having the blade...

  8. Summa S75

    Good afternoon, I know what you are describing and I have cut a fair amount of this material. I wouldn't recommend changing from tangential to drag knife mode in this case. What I would recommend is to increase your overcut slightly so that the blade extends a bit further in the corners...

  13. Anyway to run a contour cut and a flexcut on the same file using summa T160?

    Yes, this is possible. The process does vary depending on which cutting program you are using. Assuming you are using Winplot you simply need to draw your kiss cut(contour) lines in black and your flex cut(perf) lines in red(100% magenta, 100% yellow) and there is an option on the output screen...
  14. Multiple copies in Winplot.

    Good morning, What I would check is what you have the feed set to in Winplot. If you have "feed after job" selected then the cutter will feed the material forward and cut the next copy in the feed direction(y-axis). Conversely, if you have "no feed after job" selected the cutter will cut the...
  15. Summa S160 Stays on please wait loading screen

    Hi Zambookajoe, Sorry to hear about the difficulties with your Summa. This issue could be caused by a number of things, but the most likely culprits are that the firmware update hadn't been completed before a reboot was done or there is a potential issue with the mainboard. When doing the...

  18. Roland Vs. Summa

    Hello Sinclair, While I am also obviously biased, our plotters have many advantages over the Roland GX including cutting speed(44 in/sec versus 33 in/sec), cutting force(400 grams versus 350), max cut thickness(30 mil versus 20 mil), and most importantly the cutting accuracy(our models have...
