Cartridges Involved

This Configuration element involves the following Cartridges.

Note: Not all cartridges are available for all CMC models.

Rotation on V-Grooves Definition

The Outside Rotation controls for Swoops or Flares on the outside cut on non-oval V-Grooves.

Because this is a V-Groove, you will be using either the Outside Rotation or the Inside Rotation, based on which V-Groove line you are editing.

  • The first cut is the interior V-Groove line and cut into the V-Groove fallout and not the matboard, and is cut in a clockwise direction. This uses the Inside Rotation.

  • The second cut is the exterior V-Groove line and cut into the matboard and not on the V-Groove fallout, and is cut in a counter-clockwise direction. This uses the Outside Rotation.

V-Groove Outside has a Swoop

Problem:

  • The Outside cut of the non-oval V-Groove has Swoops.

Resolution:

  • Decrease the Outside Rotation. Adjust until the object cuts without a Swoop.

  • In Rotation, eight points equals one degree of rotation. Users usually make adjustments four points at a time.

  • Click OK and do another test cut.

  • Check the results of the cut and continue making adjustments until the desired outcome is achieved.
