Interior Overcut on V-Grooves | |
|---|---|
The V-Groove Interior Overcut (white arrow) is where the cut continues into the corner before retracting the blade from the fallout on the inside cut of the V-Groove.  Interior Cuts cut into the fallout of the V-Groove, not the matboard. |  The Interior Overcut Field Controls Where the Blade Continues into the Fallout Before Retracting the Blade on the Interior Cut of the Non-Oval V-Grooves |
Current V-Groove Bevel Type | |
|---|---|
Select the desired Cartridge Tab and then the V-Groove bevel type from the Current Bevel Type dropdown control before making adjustments.
|  Select the Desired Bevel Type From the Bevel Type Dropdown Control |
White Arrow on the Configuration Map | |
|---|---|
The V-Groove Interior Overcut, which is part of the inside cut of the V-Groove, is displayed on the V-Groove Configuration Map and on the associated field as a white arrow. | |
Check against the Configuration Map of the V-Groove you are cutting to determine specifically which cuts are the Interior Overcuts.  | |
Interior Cuts cut into the fallout of the V-Groove, not the matboard. | |
V-Groove Cut Direction and Cut Order | |
|---|---|
The inside of the V-Groove cuts first in a clockwise direction. These are internal cuts, which cut into the V-Groove fallout. The outside of the V-Groove cuts second in a counter-clockwise direction. These are external cuts, which cut into the matboard. The Interior Overcut is part of the first pass. | |
V-Groove Interior Overcut too Long | |
|---|---|
This is viewed from the front of the mat. If the Interior Overcut retracts the blade too late, it makes the interior overcut too long on the inside cut of the V-Groove. | |
Decrease the Interior Overcut. | |
The corners will now meet up properly. | |
When making adjustments, click either the minus or plus button (-/+) at the end of the desired field about five or six times in the direction indicated. Click OK and do a test cut. Check the results of the cut and continue making adjustments until the desired outcome is achieved. | |
V-Groove Interior Overcut too Short | |
|---|---|
This is viewed from the front of the mat. If the Interior Overcut retracts the blade too soon, it makes the interior overcut too short on the inside cut of the V-Groove. | |
Increase the Interior Overcut. | |
The corners will now meet up properly. | |
When making adjustments, click either the minus or plus button (-/+) at the end of the desired field about five or six times in the direction indicated. Click OK and do a test cut. Check the results of the cut and continue making adjustments until the desired outcome is achieved. | |
V-Groove Exterior Overcuts | |
|---|---|
