Help with Die-cut settings on a Portrait 4
Hey guys, I just wanted to ask and kinda compare what others' settings are for making die-cut vinyl laminated stickers. The issue is my die-cut settings aren't going all the way through the sticker paper backing. I'm pretty new to the hobby and am using a Portrait 4 (3 months old) with autoblade, Silhouette mat and software.
I've tried several different vinyl sticker papers and laminates off amazon and other places and I'm trying to figure out the minimum settings for die-cut laminated stickers. Right now, I'm at Blade Depth 6, Passes 7, Speed 1, Force 36, Accel 1, Line Segment overcut and Track enhancing both ON, and still am not getting a clean full cut through the sticker backing, which results in me trying to finish cutting them out manually and unfortunately leaving sticker paper backing fibers still showing around the edges of the die-cut stickers.
I've started wondering if laminated die-cut settings are supposed to be this high and if maybe there could be an issue with my machine or if this is normal with die-cuts. In y'alls experience, are these settings around the expected range for die-cuts?
I'd really appreciate any feedback. Please and thank you.
