• The 45° metal black blade cartridge* is designed to cut 45° bevels on standard 4-ply matboard.

• The 45° metal black blade cartridge is labeled 45° on the end. 

• Notes:

  • The 45° blade cartridge does not support blade depths above 16.

  • *Older systems may have a 45° plastic black blade cartridge.

• For Additional Information: See Editing the 45 Degree Configurations.

Cutting from the Front will cut with the face of the mat toward the operator, and can be selected on the Cutting Preview.

• On the Configurations screen the Current Bevel Type dropdown control will display the bevel types in this manner:

  • Cut from the Back bevel type names will be displayed with no further label; i.e., Normal Bevel.

  • Cut from the Front bevel type names will be displayed with a Front label; i.e., Normal Bevel-Front of Mat.

  • V-Grooves have their own selection on the list.

If you are cutting an element that must be applied to the front of the mat, such as a V-Groove or Pen design, any openings on that layer will also cut from the front and use the Front of Mat configuration item; i.e., Normal Bevel-Front of Mat.

So if you are having problems with a Normal Bevel cut on the same layer as a V-Groove, make sure you select Normal Bevel-Front of Mat to edit the configurations for that opening.
