Question: How should I define or link my objects in EasySign to obtain certain plotter behaviours ?
Answer: Related to the chosen line type, another plot output should be accomplished. Basically, my EasySign layout will contain a variety of vector outputs based on corresponding line type settings
Line type 1 : vector paths = normal cutting Line type 2 : vector paths = print & cutLine type 3 : vector paths = pouncingLine type 4 : vector paths = cut through

3. Automatic sorting your line types + minimal vinyl movement

Cut through parameters
Due to this AUTOMATIC sorting workflow, only one alignment reading can combine multiple line types
Note: for Cut through reasons, it is better to have this dashing technique configured at the end of your vector generation
> drop to ground failures of your stickers> minimal vinyl movement> speed reduction, higher force> jamming your knife tool during plotting exercises

Drag knife settings:
Contour lines: 110 g, 60 cm/sCut through lines: 250 g, 10 cm/s
Cut through design tips:
reduce your speed, increase your force, use all pressure rollers, minimal vinyl movement, 0° orientation, knife depth = cut through depth, VS/ZF/AS menu = accept, easy cut through shapes (rectangles, circles, squares, …), NO multi-frame alignment systems advised (multi-segment), NO repeat mode recommend
SINGLE TOOL MODE
