Cutting Perforated Lines

Perforated cutting is a combination of Die Cut (), which cuts through to the carrier paper, and Half-cut (or Kiss Cut) (), which only cuts through the material, leaving the carrier paper intact. Perforated cutting can be used with materials with no carrier paper, such as coated paper.

The blade force depends on the type of material or paper used. Perform a cutting test to check the cutting quality of the material, and adjust the blade force for both Die Cut and Half-cut (or Kiss Cut) accordingly.

IMPORTANT

Leave some parts of the carrier paper uncut even when you want to cut through parts of the material.

Cutting through to the carrier paper in all parts can cause the cutting to come off the material while cutting is in progress, resulting in a material feeding failure or paper jam.
