Hi,
We have a GCC Export II LX 24" which we just bought. We print vinyl on a UV printer and we want to contour cut i.e. the stickers on the plotter.
My question is: Is it possible to kiss cut the stickers and then when they are cut have the machine automatically run a die cut around 10 stickers in SCAL? Because I can't get it to work with the software that came with the plotter.
If yes, what version og SCAL should I purchase?
Two types of cut in the same job
Re: Two types of cut in the same job
You'll need to test the 15 day trial version of SCAL5 Pro to make sure it works exactly as you need before purchasing. But if I were to do this on the Skycut cutters that I support, there would be no issue because the software has Cut by Layer capability. So, I would either have a different force set up for the outside cut layer or I would have it pause for a tool changeout. I assume you're able to do this outside cut without it damaging the cutting strip beneath? Or perhaps you're using a cutting mat?
Anyhow, here's a link to download the 15 day trial version:

And then Cut by Layer is covered in Section 8.06.7 in this manual:
