Part 2
Cutting line varies in places
Is the workpiece vibrating because the adhesive
double sided tape was stuck on poorly?
Engraving cannot be performed at the desired location
Is there a mistake in the home position setting?
Was there a position error when the workpiece
was replaced?
The letters have been cut too deep (or too shallow) and cannot be read
Is the cutter mounted securely?
Is there a mistake in the Z position?
When moving the cutter while in the up position the cutter tip contacts or pulls on the workpiece
Is there a mistake in the Z position?
Burrs are present on grooves made during cutting
Is the cutter mounted securely?
Is the tip of the cutter worn?
Is the cutter feed speed too fast (spindle rotation
speed too slow).
The cutting finish is unsatisfactory
Separating the process of cutting the material into two stages makes for engraved results which are more attractive. After rouging out the
general shape with "rough engraving," "finishing" is performed to produce the final results.
For instance, to cut letters to a depth of 0.3 mm, first of all rough cut to a depth of 0.25 mm. Then continue exactly the same kind of
cutting to a depth of 0.3 mm.
