Advertising graphics cutting machines are widely used for cutting soft materials such as sticky notes, self-adhesive stickers, foam boards, and KT boards. They are suitable for producing advertising signs, vehicle stickers, and decorative decals. They not only achieve high-precision and efficient cutting, engraving, and punching, but also enhance the automation and digitization of advertising production. They also help advertising professionals complete various advertising production tasks more quickly and efficiently.
1. Working Principle of a Blade Cutting Machine
A blade cutter uses a precisely controlled blade head to perform pressure or full cuts on the material surface. It is suitable for flexible materials of varying thicknesses. Its core components include:
Cutter head system: Carbide blades or circular blades determine cutting quality.
Feeding system: Servo motor driven, ensuring smooth material feeding.
Control system: Software (such as Cutting Master or FlexiSign) controls the cutting path and pressure.
2.Common Problems and Solutions
| Problem |
Possible Cause |
Solution |
| Insufficient cut-through |
Insufficient blade pressure, blunt blade, material too thick |
Increase blade pressure, change blades, cut in layers |
| Friction/stringing |
Incorrect blade angle, excessive speed |
Use a circular blade, reduce speed |
| Material shift |
Uneven pressure roller pressure, static electricity |
Clean the pressure rollers, use a static eliminator |
| Cutting through the backing paper |
Blade tip too deep, material too thin |
Reduce blade depth, replace the dedicated backing paper |
3. Equipment maintenance and care
(1) Daily basic maintenance
Blade machine: Use a non-woven cloth dipped in 99% alcohol to clean the blade head and surrounding glue stains, and clean the work surface debris (it is recommended to use a magnetic adsorption tool to collect metal debris)
Key inspections:
Test the emergency stop button response speed (should be ≤0.5 seconds)
Check the air line pressure (the laser machine maintains 0.6-0.8MPa)
Confirm that the material clamping device is not loose
(2) Weekly deep maintenance
Guide rail lubrication: Use #2 lithium-based grease, and the amount of oil added is based on the formation of a uniform oil film
Same Belt inspection: Use a tensiometer to measure (standard value: 5-10mm elastic displacement)
Electrical system: Use a megohmmeter to check the motor insulation resistance (≥1MΩ), clean the dust in the electric control box (compressed air pressure ≤0.3MPa)
(3) Seasonal maintenance focus
Water-cooled machine: Replace the coolant (recommended antifreeze mixing ratio 1:1)
Air-cooled system: Clean the heat sink fins (use a special cleaning agent)
Safety device: Test the response time of the photoelectric protection device (≤20ms), replace the aging emergency stop circuit (it is recommended to use flame-retardant wire)
