RSC-5500H/6500H

PRESSURE SETTING

Thin images
The best pressure setting for thin films and images is about 8. During processing the pressure can be adjusted and might
be varied.
Caution:
Thin material requires less pressure. Set the pressure proportional to the rigidity of the material between 4 and 8 to avoid
permanent compression marks.
Panels and foam boards
When processing panels, a leader panel is used to web the film. This leader panel is at the same time used to preset the
pressure.
Use a leader panel of the same material, thickness and width as the panels to process.
1. Set the nip to the thickness of the panel.
2. Feed the leader panel into the nip in slow mode (by press and hold foot switch).
3. When the edges of the film is through the nip, set the pressure to approximately 8 for full-width panel and between 6 and
8 for full-width foam board.
Caution:
For narrower or soft panels set the pressure proportional to the width (rigidity) between 4 and 8. Half width equals 6.
*Backing paper
The image will add approximately an additional about 1 to 2 to the pressure.
