If you’re having problems with your Silhouette cutting too deeply into the material, there are a few things you can do to troubleshoot the issue. First, check if the blade is sharp and replace it if needed.
Make sure the blade is tightened properly and that the blade depth is set correctly according to the specific material you’re using. You should also check to see if your mat has been worn down over time and needs to be replaced.
In addition, you may need to adjust your blade offset settings. This will determine how close or far away from the edge of the material that your blade cuts.
If your offset is too high, then your blade will cut deeper than necessary and could damage your material or cause it to tear or fray. You can adjust this setting in Silhouette Studio by clicking on “Blade Settings” in the top menu and then adjusting “Blade Offset” accordingly.
If you’re still having issues with deep cuts, it could be due to a faulty sensor in your machine or a calibration issue with the pressure settings. If possible, try resetting the machine by turning it off and on again before making any further adjustments.
If this doesn’t work, then you should contact Silhouette customer service for further assistance. They can help diagnose any hardware issues or provide additional tips for troubleshooting cutting issues.
Conclusion: Cutting too deep with a Silhouette machine can be caused by an array of different factors such as a dull blade, worn down mat, incorrect blade settings or an issue with calibration settings or sensors in the machine itself. To resolve this issue, make sure that all components are set up properly and contact customer service if further assistance is needed.
