Do you Know How to Choose a Vinyl Cutter?

-
Vinyl cutter is common seen nowadays. A vinyl cutter is a type of computer-controlled machine. The computer controls the movement of a sharp blade like a knife. This blade is used to cut out shapes and letters from sheets of thin self-adhesive plastic (vinyl).How to choose a vinyl cutter? Here are some tips.

1. Drive Motor

  The drive motor is what “drives” the cutter. It’s the engine that powers the machine. Now, there are generally two kinds of motors that are used to power vinyl cutters – digital servo motors and mechanical stepper motors. The latter uses a “step-by-step” approach where movements occur in increments. The movements themselves are controlled via physical gears. It’s actually a conventional piece of technology and has been used for decades. The key benefit with this motor is the economy. However, they are noisy and often, not very precise. So, small graphics are a no-no on vinyl cutters run by stepper motors. Plotting lines accurately is next to impossible with this option.

As for the former option, a digital encoder does all the work. It translates the commands from software into binary code (1s and 0s). Plus, the consistent running of the motor allows for precise movement without any stopping and the lack of physical gears eliminates noise. Servo motors also track very well. On the whole, digital servo motors are the best option if you’ve got the money. Otherwise, you’ll have to settle for the stepper motor.

2. Width

Now, vinyl cutters vary in size as well. So, you need to factor in the kind of cutting work you’ll be doing on a daily basis.  If your average project involves large signs or banners, then you will need a high width machine. The point is the size of your machine has to be in line with the work that you handle. However, a large cutter makes sense even for projects of varying sizes because they can accommodate most sizes.

3. Cutting Abilities

Go for a vinyl cutter that can handle most materials. Each material is different and you’ll probably handle quite a few varieties. So, it’s smarter to get a cutter that can handle anything. Laser or flatbed cutters stand out in this department.

  A good vinyl cutter can help you save time and money, so learn to choose a good vinyl cutter is very important.

Which is the right print side of the sublimation paper?     Sublimation paper is one type of coated paper, and most of the sublimation transfer paper comes with right and wrong side for printing.if you print on wrong side, the transfer will not have best color,will result in a poor transfer which looks mottled and washed out, and you'll have to do it again. So dye sublimation paper can only be printed on one side (which is the release side). This article next will firtstly talking about the right printing side of the sheet (such as the A3 A4) sublimation paper.    Printing on the wrong side happens a lot in sheet sublimation paper . People always ask their supplier “which side to print", normally the answer is "the brighter side is the printing side", but for some people who have bad view , just like me, are incapable of telling the very small difference between two things, then we still have a big problem in identify the correct side. Today we will share

 Is DTG Printing Eco-friendly?    DTG printing is a more sustainable fashion business model than screen printing. Mainly because printing one-offs allows businesses to avoid overproduction and textile waste. With 92 million tons of textile going to waste in the fashion industry each year, a business model like this is a game-changer.     Plus, a lot of DTG printer manufacturers create advanced tech that’s made with sustainability in mind. For example, our partners with Sublistar whose printers produce almost zero wastewater and use less energy, lowering the carbon footprint.     What’s more, sublistar DTG printers use water-based vegan inks that they formulate, test, and produce in their own ink factories, maintaining the highest quality levels. The inks are non-hazardous, toxin-free, biodegradable, and contain no animal by-products.     Direct-to-garment printing is a hassle-free way to get the products ready for your customers.    Most third-party printers have no order minimums for

  As one of the most important application field of sublimation printing , garment industrial plays an significant role in sublimation printing technology ’ s development. Why sublimation printing are used widely in garment industrial?    1. Good printing result   The garments printed by sublimation printing technology usually has beautiful patterns and vivid color.
