What is the Tangential Mode?
The tangential mode is a function used to cleanly cut the corners when working with thick media.
When cutting the media, it is necessary for the blade tip to always be facing the direction in which the tool
is traveling. With this device, the blade tip is controlled to automatically face the direction in which the tool is
traveling even when cutting curves and corners.

Overcut (Start)
Overcut (End) Original Cutting Line
When cutting corners in thick media, the cutting becomes
more difficult as it is harder for the blade to rotate in the
direction in which the tool is traveling. With the tangential
mode, the tool is lifted upon creating an excessive cut at
each corner (up to the overcut ending point). The tool is
also lowered before the cutting line for the next straight
line to create an excessive cut (from the overcut starting
point) before proceeding to cut the original cutting line.
Setting the Tangential Mode
The tangential mode consists of two modes.
Mode 1: Overcuts the starting and ending positions of cutting lines as well as corners having a sharp angle.
The blade tip is controlled when the blade needs to largely rotate so the cuts can be made without
being affected by the hardness or thickness of the media.
Mode 2: Overcuts only the starting and ending positions of cutting lines. As the blade tip is only controlled at
cut starting positions, the cutting time will be shorter compared to Mode 1.
