  • Page 56: Contour Cutting On The Summacut Series

    SummaCut User’ s Manual SECTION 3 CONTOUR CUTTING ON THE SUMMACUT SERIES 3.1 INTRODUCTION The SummaCut cutters have accurate alignment methods to guarantee precise contour cutting. Standard included are the manual alignment methods. The possibilities of the Factory installed OPOS are explained in a different manual. Depending on the selected alignment method, the cutters can counterbalance the following irregularities: 1.
  • Page 57 SummaCut User’ s Manual 2. SKEWED DESIGN: If the X and Y-axes of the printed design are not perpendicular, the contour can be skewed to fit the printed design. 3. INCORRECTLY SCALED DESIGN: If the print size is different from the original design in your software due to media expansion or shrinkage, or due to printing inaccuracies, the contour can be scaled to fit the printed graphic.
  • Page 58 SummaCut User’ s Manual The alignment methods are based on the principle of cross-marks, who are printed together with the drawing. These cross-marks can be of any type. There are three alignment methods. Alignment methods: 1. X-Alignment: counterbalances a “rotated design” problem. For this method, the origin and one point along the x-axis must be specified.
  • Page 59 SummaCut User’ s Manual 2. XY-Alignment: counterbalances the “rotated design” and “skewed design” problems. For this method, the origin, one point along the x-axis and one point along the y-axis must be specified. This method rotates and skews the drawing. It does not need any distance parameters.
