For reference: the protruding amount of the cutter blade =
0.2 to 0.5 mm
(Replace the blade when it is blunt.)
• Adjust the blade pressure so that the cutter may
leave a little bit of cutter track on the sheet.
• In case the sheet thickness is thinner than the film
thickness, which may not provide correct cutting
quality, change the protruding amount of the blade
and you may get a better result.
