The tip of the Muto engraving knife is small and fragile, and standardized operation is required throughout the entire use process to ensure engraving accuracy and extend the tool’s service life. Firstly, it is necessary to choose the appropriate cutting tool based on the processing material. For fine small characters and complex patterns, a 30 ° cutting tool should be used. For ordinary graphics and text, a 45 ° universal cutting tool should be used. For thick reflective film and thick stickers, a 60 ° cutting tool should be used. Choosing the wrong angle can easily lead to problems such as rough edges and broken lines.
Secondly, it is necessary to adjust the parameters of the engraving machine, control the blade pressure and cutting speed. Excessive pressure can easily scratch the base paper, while insufficient pressure cannot cut through the material. Excessive speed can cause deformation of the pattern movement. When installing cutting tools, control the length of the tool tip extension and avoid it being too long to prevent tool shaking during operation.
During daily storage and disassembly, it is strictly prohibited for the cutting edge to collide with hard objects to prevent the cutting edge from cracking and being damaged. At the same time, it is necessary to regularly check the degree of wear on the cutting edge, replace the tool in a timely manner after it becomes dull, ensure smooth engraving edges, and improve the quality of the finished product.
