Workflow kerfuffle! Ok guys, I know I’ve seen it before and think I can do it someway with what I have. I need to make a few thousand cut decals that need to be weeded, then premasked but then perfcut (radiused perfcut like examples to save material and it’s what the customer wants).
Anyway...
Hey guys, just got a used fcx2000-60 for some projects that require some downforce not achievable on my summa cutters. The user manual is pretty limited as are any tutorials of in field use. I’m just wondering if it can detect media size. I’m in flexi and it it looks to all be user input? My...
Hey guys,
I’m having an issue sending a design from Corel to the summa print controller. Actually just saving the eps file is the actual issue as I have just found out. I have pulled a vector design from another project I had and (about .75 x 1.8”) I stack it 2 high and 28 wide for a single...
Ok, getting this beast ready to rock. Coming from a strictly cut only background, print it new to me. I have my design work done in Coreldraw and I have to colorcontrol plug-in installed. I click it, it opens colorcontrol but nothing is there but the blue color control background. I’m...
Well, Phil hooked me up with overnight shipping and I got it today! Got it set up in the shop (crazy but I think the basement shop is officially outgrown for me and my 3 employees now). Fired it up, set up the first test cut and realized this is a lot louder than the Graphtec. No cuts were...
Hey y’all, my fc-8000 ran its last mile a few days ago. It’s time to upgrade and I went with a a summa S2T75... I have coreldraw to design in and I would export as an SVG and open in Graphtec studio pro to set up for mass cutting. What is my work flow going to look like now... should be in...
Ok, anyone running the new fc9000? My 8000 died after a long, rough life, the I saved it and brought it back for a couple years...but she dead! I’m in a very tight niche and the biggest I cut is 30 rolls, and I cut a lot of 3m 5100 reflective. The fc9000-75 only comes with two pinch rollers...
Hey guys,
I have a customer that wants something I can’t currently do. We are strictly a cut graphics shop but they want 2-5,000 two color decals per month about .75”x1.5”
What they want is chrome, specifically a black vinyl with either chrome or green metallic chrome. I really would like...
Hey guys,
I have an ongoing order of about 1000 pieces of 5x30 vinyl every month. Hand cutting with a 5” wide rule is ok but time consuming. I was looking to the vast knowledge of this group for suggestions. First thought was to see if just putting a roll on the graphtec and somehow setting...
Hey y’all, been a while but I have a problem that you may be able to help on. On each new iPhone launch I have some very special clients who I design a new iPhone skin for. Well, I got my new 11 pro max and designed the skin... and nothing sticks to that back glass... nothing! I even broke...
hey y’all, just wondering how the enduralite compares to the 3m. I have a fairly large job calling for the enduralite 48000 in black but I haven’t used it or even heard about it until now. I do like the price but I want to make sure the quality is there
Ok y'all, just sold my old Toyota minivan and picked up an infinity G35 as a nice little toy, I really couldn't pass it up with its price and what a little sleeper it is. The problem is twofold, I hate white cars and "ivory pearl" is simply a shiny dirty white, two...all my design brain space...
Ok y'all, I need something to the effect of what's in the picture. It's tiny and I need to know who can do it and what it's going to cost. Just plotted, weeded, and cut to size (no premask). I'm still waiting for color verification but originally it was red, green and orange 3m 5100 series...
