Cutting area for Cut2D Desktop?

Post by TompaD »

Hi!

What is the biggest area Cut2D Desktop can cut?
I know my machines limits, but not Cut2Ds.

I ask because I have a project there I placed a pocket
on the far right of the material but when I cut, the pocket
is placed 20mm to the left of the right side...

Regards
Thomas

Cut2D Desktop has a 24" x 24" limit but it won't let you generate toolpaths that exceed that limit so that's not your problem.

Have you cut with the machine before? Has it been calibrated?

I have used Candle before and cut things with, but not at the border at material.
I am not sure if it has been calibrated......yes I'm a newbie....

I am beginning to understand that I need to look more into the setting of Cut2D Desktop,
I just started the program and run it with one of the proposed machine (my own wasn't
there). I will check out more info and getting back if I need some additional help.

Thanks for your help.

Regards
Thomas
