  1. GS 15 plus alignment problem

    Hi Folks I operate an edge and use an old GS15 plus cutter in conjuction with it, I am having a small alignment problem, if I print and cut for example small circular stickers approx 1 inch diameter and can get 10 stickers in the width this is what happens on one row, the first circle cut will...
  2. Corel to Composer question

    We use corel and I do reasign all the spot colors in composer, just we always export the file from corel in cmx format.
  3. Print and cut using Graphtec FC8000

    Briankb I know this post is a year old but i have a ce5000-120 and a mutoh 1204 and 1604 printers and using wasatch rip software I cannot get the cutter to consistently cut, most time it fails to find the registration marks and the very odd time it will cut. Could you possibly give me any advice...
  4. Omega!!!! IS THERE A WELD OPTION? IF SO WHERE IS IT?

    It is in effects and is contour, I come from across the pond and sometimes find Omega like a foreign language, it has taken me almost a year to work most of it out. But then I believe it was Oscar Wilde that said something like "Britain and America where two countries seperated by the same language"
  5. Contour Cutting

    We use a CE5000 and find it sensitive to light. What we do is leave the extra at all edges as mentioned and then bring the blade to 1/2 inch below the first registration mark and then use the origin plot, we find it doesn't pick up the second registration mark properly unless we do this. Also...

  7. GS15 Plus

    Tried the Spandex agent here in Northern Ireland they never got back to us. I will give the main guys in England a ring, they fitted and supplied the Tekcel Router I operate and always found them helpful then but that was a good few years ago. Although I have emailed the plotter doctor and they...
  8. GS15 Plus

    Thanks folks I have no problem in replacing the belt, it's relatively easy, I find the gerbers very reliable as long as they are kept clean and lubricated, one of the super sprints I use must be 25 years old, we bought the other one for spares really but it also works, thought the...
  9. GS15 Plus

    I live and work in Northern Ireland and among other things use an edge and have a GS15plus linked to it. We also have a couple of super sprints, recently the GS15plus lost teeth on the Theta belt so I have been trying to source a new belt. Does anyone know of anywhere in the UK that may still...
  10. EdgeFX Cleaning pads?

    I don't clean as often as I should, from memory gerber recommend every 5 metres or so and also everytime you change a foil. As Fred says use 99%+ isopropyl as any less will have water in it, what happens is the water drys up and the dirt left behind blocks the hole and you end up with a pixel...

  13. Gerber GS15plus

    I have a GS15 plus cutter which I use in conjuction with an edge, recently the Theta belt lost some of its teeth and whilst I am waiting for a new one I have pulled off the shelf, one of my old super sprints with keyboard, and I am using that, a great cutter it is too, what I have noticed is...
  14. Mutoh new ink disaster

    Just a thought but as you have replaced the stations already why not replace the dampers, afterall they cost very little in fact probably less than the cost of the material you have wasted in the photo. A word of warning be careful with them, a delicate touch is needed, but I think it is your...

  16. GS 15 plus Die Cut

    Hi We have a GS 15 plus which we use along with a gerber Edge, I am using composer. Everything works well and I am quite used to the set-up. I have read that the gerber can do a die cut i.e cut through both vinyl and backing paper but have never had the need to do this. The other day I was doing...
  17. 1989 Super Sprint

    Mingling with our new cutters we have two super sprints, neither now have monitors, as both are equipped with LMK and run off computers, we also still have a GS15 plus. I love them there is nothing like a tangental cutter, fascinating just to watch, as someone said great for blast masking. Also...
  18. Question from the Edge

    Good to here you got it fixed, was it the original edge that opens up sideways not front to back. I used one for a while but bought a factory reconditioned edge1 I think it is after the original blew a few boards in a big way, at that stage it needed a head as it was leaving a line down the...
  19. Double sided decal

    I just lie to Omega, do the first layer mirrored then overprint a flood coat of your choice of colour then overprint the normal layer on top, but if it is to be the same colour as the first layer lie to Omega and use a different colour, but of course when asked for the foil by the edge put in...
