Cut through
When all vector paths of your contour alignment are completed, single sticker samples (basic
shapes) are often to be isolated. Due to the intermittent or discontinued plotting of Mutoh’s
supporting cut through technique, an extra protection of sticker drop-outs will be guaranteed
by configuring your tool-up distance consequently.
Refer to the Application Guide of the Kona to know how to initiate a cut through routine
flawless.
It is however not easy to match an ideal tool configuration setup in which the media weakness
suffers not radically from the multiple cut through samples accomplished. Therefore a perfect
harmony between your tool down force and tool up distance needs to be synchronised.
Via this menu, you can set the desired cut through parameters.
