  1. Mimaki CG 160FXII cutter issue?

    Have a Mimaki CG 160FXII cutter, from 2013. Just started making clanking noise when doing horizontal cuts, and on rounded corner rectangles it cuts opposite corners at an angle instead of rounded. Not sure if belt issue or motor issue, no idea honestly.
  2. Need Help noise from roland truevis SG540

    Hi there, i have a 7 month old SG540 which has suddenly started making a noise from the belt drive area behind the operating panel. Apparently its garantee up to the front door because the dealer (Meagis, Enschede ,Holland)wants travel pay and hourly wages. A phonecall to Roland Belgium did't...
  3. Edge Fx Squeals at Me!

    At the beginning of a print job when my Edge FX starts advancing the vinyl, it squeals LOUDLY - maybe like a belt squealing? Then after another second or two, it makes a softer squeal. Job prints fine. This has been going on for a few weeks. Any thoughts on source of noise and a fix for it...
  4. Graphtec CE6000 cutter making humming noise?

    Anyone have a Graphtec CE6000 cutter, is it normal when sitting idle it makes a very low humming noise coming from the cutting head area? Also, when you put slight pressure on the tool holder (like if to change the blade), the noise stops (silent), and as soon as you let it go the noise comes...
  5. Graphtec making noise

    I have a Graphtec 8600 54" plotter, that's only a few months old out of the box. Since day 1, when the reader scrolls from right to left, it's always made a "struggling" noise as it goes from end to end to read the scanner marks on the paper. It's only 3 months old, and it still makes that...
  6. Need Help Roland GX-24 Rought Grinding Noise

    I just bought an 8-year old GX-24. It works fine after I've replaced the blade, blade holder and the cutting strip. I also took in all a apart and cleaned it as well as lubed all the gears, pinch rollers and both bearings. The issue I'm having is with the plotter making a grinding/squealing...
  7. new mutoh noise (speckles) in prints

    Hi All, I have just received a new Mutoh VJ1624 which prints with a lot of noise in the prints. It is not a heat or profile issue, any ideas?
  8. Mutoh VJ1204 screeching noise when rolling media fast

    Ok, this started years ago on and off. It was sporadic but now as of today it's constant. When the material runs on the higher speed, something inside SCREAMS, sounds like metal on metal screeching. At printing speeds there are no noises. What should I check for first? Any suggestions, ideas or...
  9. Graphtec FC2250 operation in tilted position / Y-motor buzzing

    Hello All! I'm using 2x FC2250 plotters. One for 8 years and 1 for 6 years already. Both in tilted position, table is about 55-60 degr. to horizontal. I'm concerning about behavior of the pen block while in "pause" - top-right position. The thing is that in this position Y-motor seems to get a...
  10. My VS-540 is suddenly very LOUD! Suggestions...?

    So the VS-540 isn't the quietest printer on the planet however it usually is not THIS loud. It may have been gradual but it seems like it very quickly went from a dull zipping noise to a very irritating high-pitched digital buzzing noise as the print head slides back and forth. Has anyone...
