[Guest Keepitreel]

Anyone useing a roland cx500 camm1pro and having issues with it cutting tint,My issue is the plotter is not cutting all the way through and if I increase the pressure it cuts all the way through.Any help would be great.

if you have an adjustable blade, take it in a little farther, and set the down force a little higher. or put the blade out a hair more and lighten the force.

I have the GX-500 60 degree blade with the down force set at 50, pen force 0, speed set to 20 for window film.

Asked about CX500 setting in another post, now seen previous post with settings, have 60 degree blades on order, will try setup as above and let you know how it goes.

Thanks

On the plastic cutting strip that the blade pushes on check with your finger nail if there are any grooves cut into the plastic strip. if there is you can use clear finger nail polish to fill the grooves until you can reorder the strip. if the blade dosnt have back pressure to push on it will be very inconsistant with cuts. using a 60 degree blade will be better but you should still be able to set it with a 45 to cut. let me know if you need help with it, I used to work for a roland dealer as the tech/trainer.

Set your offset to .325mm, have your blade out .17mm, set speed to 15cm/second, pressure around 30grams. I just went through my cx500 two days ago. Now it cuts flawlessly.

Old but great thread, I saw recently another using 60 degree with

40g of force. I was amazed, I have been using a 30 with 110+

Great info
