Cutting an Extra Dense Layer with the 90 Degree Cartridge

These instructions will show how to adjust the air pressure on the head in order to cut extra dense material using the 90 Degree cartridge.

This setting is only for the 90° Cartridge and will not take affect if another cartridge is selected. This setting will allow the 90° Cartridge to cut at a slower pace.

The Variable Pressure Optimization (VPO) Feature allows the user to compensate for dense and extra dense matboard. Not all systems CMC models have this feature.

Adjusting the Head Air Pressure for Extra Dense Matboard

These instructions will show how to adjust the air pressure on the head in order to cut dense material.

The head air regulator is located on the left side of the head and controls the pressure of the footblock against the matboard as it is cutting.  

The minimum operating air pressure is 35 psi.

The maximum air pressure should be less than 60 psi to avoid crushing the matboard.   

The software will prompt for a head pressure change only if the current mat is a different setting than the previously cut mat. If the settings are the same as the previously cut mat, the CMC will skip the following instructions and proceed to cut the mat.
