Is the blade worn, or is the cutting tip broken?
• Replace it with a new Auto Blade. • When the blade wears out, the media that could be cut until now may suddenly no longer be cut. As a guideline, the service life is about 4 km for vinyl chloride media (cutting film) and about 2 km for paper media, such as drawing paper, postcards, and Kent paper. Is the blade depth too small, or is the force set too low?
• Gradually increase the blade depth and force on Silhouette Studio and perform a test cut.
