3.3 LOADING MEDIA
3.3.1
Loading roll media
Please follow the procedure below to load roll media properly.
Be aware that there is a loading cycle difference between loading cut vinyl and pre-printed vinyl meant for
contour cutting.
3.3.1.1
Loading cut vinyl
Configuration to start from:
Raised pressure rollers.
►
Rear media collection bag open and EMPTY.
►
Front media collection bag open when the cutting job is smaller than 4m.
►
Front media collection bag closed when the cutting job is larger than 4 m.
Install the brake and two flanges on the conveyor roll closest to the cutter.
►
Step 1 :
Place the vinyl on the conveyor rolls (2 & 4).
Pay attention to the following:
Position the conveyor rolls so that the space (6) between them is
►
maximum the core diameter (5). Otherwise the core will fall
through when the roll is (almost) empty.
Be sure that the slip ring obstructer (1) is positioned at the left
►
side of the rear conveyor roll (2). It is recommended to install the
rear conveyor roll in the following position
Step 2 :
Position the media roll on the two conveyor rolls.
Pay attention to the following:
The outer left and the outer right pressure rollers always have to be used. The middle rollers
►
2 and 3 (half of the pressure as roller 1 and 4) can be used, but they may also be disabled (in
between two arrows (as number 2 on the picture below). This to eliminate roller marks on
vulnerable vinyl for example. The left pressure roller can only move between the two flat
arrows.
On the rear cover, arrows are marked. These arrows represent the possible position of the
►
pressure rollers. The left pressure roller can have a various position; the other three have a
fixed position.
The cutter will cut between the centres of the outer pressure rollers, regardless of the width
►
of the cut vinyl. Therefore, it is recommended to position the outer pressure rollers about 1cm
inside the media. It is not recommended that the rollers run on the very edge of the material.
