Pitch
(Stamp
Page)
Your stamp will be a reversed image composed of engraved depressions and ridges. Think of
these ridges as the "contact sections" of the stamp. If the ridges of these contact sections are too
thin, they may break. The Pitch setting allows you to increase the width of the ridge base, hence
creating more stable "contact sections" and longer lasting stamp. The pitch value setting allows you
to adjust the base width of the ridge. Broad pitch gives the maximum amount of support for each
ridge. Experiment
with different pitch value settings in order to produce the stamp that is best suited
for your application.

Another important aspect of creating a stamp is setting the slope level of the shoulder. The shoulder
is the section from the "contact section" of the stamp to its base. This function allows you to adjust
the slope for the shoulder sections of your stamp. By sliding the sliders or directly input of power
levels,
you will be able to change the slope of the shoulder.
NOTE
The visual representations of the Pitch and Shoulder Levels in the C180II driver are an
exaggerated representation to allow for easy visual guidance and precise input.
