SummaCut Series Cutters User’ s Manual
Operation 2-6
The default knife offset value is .45 mm.
The value can be set between 0 and 1 mm.
Make sure that the selected knife offset value matches that of the knife. Some
fine tuning may be necessary because of the mechanical tolerances on the
knife. To verify the knife offset, a test can be cut by clicking on the ‘Cut test
pattern’ button.
If the offset value is set too low, the rectangles will not close.
When the offset value is set too high, the rectangles will be distorted.
The offset test is illustrated below.
