What Should I Do If I Cannot Perform the Paper Piercing Well?

Check the following problem and perform the necessary operation according to each solution.

 

Problem 1: The hole cannot be punched clearly.
Problem 2: The area around the piercing pattern cannot cut cleanly.
Problem 3: The material was misaligned during piercing.
Problem 4: The material floated up or turned up from the mat.

 

 

 

Problem 1: The hole cannot be punched clearly.

 

Solution:

Refer to The Hole Cannot be Punched Clearly in Paper Piercing.

 

 

Problem 2: The area around the piercing pattern cannot cut cleanly.

 

Solution:

Refer to The Area Around the Piercing Pattern Cannot Cut Cleanly.

 

 

 

Problem 3: The material was misaligned during piercing.

 

Solution 1:

Did you cut after piercing?
When you cut around a piercing pattern, cut it around and then pierce it. Otherwise, the material may be misaligned during piercing.

 

 

 

Solution 2:

The setting of the Perforation Length may be short. Adjust the setting of the Perforation Length to longer.

Problem 4:The material floated up or turned up from the mat during perforating.

 

Solution 1:

The edge of the material may have floated up depending on the material or the mat condition as the cutting machine punches a hole by moving the piercing tool up and down.
If the material floated up, adjust the setting of the Perforation Length to the Long.

 

 

 

Solution 2:

Repeating cutting (or piercing) the same pattern in the same layout on the mat reduces the adhesive strength of the mat, and it cause the material to float from the mat. If the user cuts (or pierces) the same pattern repeatedly, move the pattern on the editing screen to not cut on the same position of the mat many times.
