Knife Offset is the distance between the center of the knife blade and the knife tip. Allen
Datagraph blades have a 0.012 inch (.030 cm) offset. If you have objects that do not
close correctly, you might have to adjust the knife offset to correct the problem.
5.8.3.3 Rubber Tab
This tab is not used on the AXXIS unless you are doing stencil cutting at high
force values.
Rubber Minimum Angle displays and
sets the angle between consecutive
vectors that when exceeded will invoke
the tangential emulation mode. At
angles less than the value set in this
parameter the AXXIS will move
between vectors without evoking the
tangential emulation mode.
Stencil Force is the force separation
between drag knife mode and tangential
emulation cut mode. Tangential
emulation cut mode is normally used for
rubber or very heavy material. The
AXXIS will normally not cut this type of
material so this value should be set to a
high force %.

5.8.4.1 Line Sensor Tab
Sensor Offsets - The SmartMark sensor is offset
from the center of the knife to the center of the
sensor. The sensor offset distance is preset at the
factory or during installation, but may need to be
adjusted on occasion. The AXXIS can
automatically calculate and set the SmartMark
offset and sensor size parameters. See drawing for
definition of sensor offsets. See TSB Title Calibration Web Site Copy / CD Copy
X/Y Sensor size is the offset from the exact center of the red dot of the SmartMark
sensor to the sense radius and may change based on sensor sensitivity or media
reflectivity. This parameter is best
set using the procedure in the TSB
above. The Sensor Size parameter is
only useful in origin scale and three
target scanning. If you are not using
