Need Help Cutting transfer+vinyl+liner with serie t summa

[herrera]

hello, here a question.
Do you know if it is possible to cut with a summa s2 class serie t vinyl decals with transfer , I want to say vinyl already weeded with transfer for finished with rounded corners.
Like attached image.
Thanks.

Most likely it's going to be faster and easier to do it the old fashioned way. Use a manual rotary/slide cutter to separate them, then use a corner rounding tool to finish them off. Maybe you can corner round a stack of 4 or 5 at a time? It shouldn't be too bad.

But if you really want to use the Summa for this -- and assuming you haven't already cut the vinyl for this job -- here's one way you could go about it:

1. Run a basic Flexcut test using the exact same materials as you plan on using for the actual job. Flexcut a few rows to make sure the plotter doesn't chew up the transfer tape. High tack tape should be okay for this as long as you're using a basic calendered, non-air release film (e.g., 651, Shinerite, etc)
   If the test is successful:
2. Decide how many you can nest across your roll of vinyl, but still fit inside a single pass of transfer tape. Not too wide. Not too narrow. (more on this in a second)
3. Set it up like a regular print and cut job. Print the registration marks in advance, weed out the graphics, then apply transfer tape over the decals only.
   Ideally, the panel size and decal spacing will accommodate the width of your transfer tape so that you don't cover up the registration marks, or have to overlap the tape. Not much wiggle room, but it can be done.
4. To keep it manageable, run them in small batches (e.g., 4 to 6 linear feet worth of material at a time). Then just print multiple copies as needed. Be sure to leave enough spacing between copies so that you can flexcut each sheet separately. (don't roll it up on a 3" core) Allow 2" at the front edge of each panel; 4" at the end.
   
5. Note: As with any flexcut, make sure your panel size and/or vector sorting is configured so that it only flexcuts one row at a time (not jumping all over the place).

Hope that helps!
