  1. Vinyl cutting leaves 'barbs' on rounded or knockout letters

    It's back at it. I thought I knew how to calibrate plotters before I started using this particular Gerber EnVision. It's reverted back to cutting horribly and leaving the barbs/offset cuts. Not even the service guy fixed the issue. Any new ideas?

  4. Vinyl cutting leaves 'barbs' on rounded or knockout letters

    Ahh the cutting strip. Gonna change that out in the morning. Oiled the blade assembly. Will see how it goes in the morning.
  5. Vinyl cutting leaves 'barbs' on rounded or knockout letters

    Well, so far I've tweaked the Corners function up to .022" and slowed the Accel down to 2g. I really hate messing with the Corners function because sometimes it rounds off fonts with sharp edges. Meh, maybe this will work. Yet still, I'm open to suggestions.
  6. Vinyl cutting leaves 'barbs' on rounded or knockout letters

    It's really hit or miss. It's generally worse with serifed fonts although I've seen it happen with sans-serif. And of course, it gets worse the smaller the font size. I'll double check the offset. Flexi Production Manager has a box to check and set for the Overcut/Offset function but I don't...
  7. Vinyl cutting leaves 'barbs' on rounded or knockout letters

    I'm cutting text no smaller than 3/4" letters on 3M HP vinyl with a Gerber EnVision ripped from Flexi and I keep getting 'barbs' (partial, jagged, etc.) on the O's, A's, S's, B's, P's, etc. The O's look the worst. I guess the start and end cuts are going off track? Not quite sure. I've...
  8. Waterproof/Water Resistant butcher or kraft paper?

    Yeah, I was thinking Tyvek. Sometimes you get crazy requests.
  9. Waterproof/Water Resistant butcher or kraft paper?

    Where can I get my hands on some of this latex paper? I've never had a problem with it either. Until now. I think it might be a problem more with the ink just bleeding. Don't know why for sure. I'm just doing the legwork.
  10. Waterproof/Water Resistant butcher or kraft paper?

    What do you guys use? I need waterproof/resistant pen pattern paper. Found some Freezer paper and some Poly Coated Kraft paper at U-Line. Do these work well for pen patterns? Any other options out there?
  11. Plotter stretching graphics

    Fixed it! I think. There's a setting called "Cutting Quality". I'd set it on "Small Letter" setting to improve a problem I had with barbed letters. It hasn't done the same thing since I switched it back to normal. Thanks for your assistance.
  12. Plotter stretching graphics

    When a file is sent to my 48" No Name plotter from Flexi the outcome is a gradual "stretching" of the graphic. It's not enough to be obvious right off the bat, but when we go to match up multiple lines of text it doesn't line up (with text cut on another plotter that is cutting correctly). In...
