Adjust
Blade Offset,
as needed, using 0.1 increments in order to get perfect corners.
Overcut
is related to
Blade Offset
in that it isn’t needed when using a pen, embosser, engraver, and so
forth, because the tips of those tools are aligned with the center of the tools themselves. However,
leaving
Overcut
at 0 when using the blade holder will result in large shapes not quite closing:
o
In some cutting programs,
Overcut
is not a separate setting but rather automatically calculated and
applied based on the
Blade
Offset
entered. However, in SCAL, you can enter an actual
Overcut
setting and should do so any time a blade is used.
o
In general, the blade type doesn’t greatly affect the
Overcut
required. Try using 1.00 mm. In the
event you cut a large closed shape, like an 8
” circle, you may find that you’ll need to increase
Overcut
to 2.00 mm.
Multi-cut
is used when cutting thicker or denser materials where more than one pass is recommended.
Each shape is cut the number of passes selected before the blade moves to the next shape to cut.
Pressure
and
Speed
(or other settings for your brand of cutter) should be covered in the user manual
provided with your cutter.
