This is a smart approach. Smart because I also remembered and tried but it didn’t work 100%
In the case of thin material, this will work in most cases, but you need to “guess” where the material will lift to place a “tab” there. Otherwise, if the material lifts more than 2mm (height between the UV protection and the material), the protection touches the lifted material and either drags the entire material or, if the material is fixed, tears or damages the material in some way. That’s why I want these types of materials (very thin and very light) to remain “attached” to the honeycomb. (maybe with some “kind of vacuum”)
In the case of K-line, which is a “thick” material (5 to 6 mm currently), the problem is different. In addition to the issue of the height of the protection to the material, it continues to be a problem that in this case is even worse because to try to locate the center of focus in the middle of the thickness of the material I have to reduce the distance of the protection to the material from 2mm to about 0.5mm. . I have already come to the conclusion that my machine is not suitable for this type of thickness and I am just trying to find a workaround or some kind of miracle that results in an acceptable cut.
But going back to the issue of tabs in K-line, I believe it works better because it won’t lift like thin and light material.
In the file I attached somewhere (probably in the other topic) you can see that there are tabs in the sub layer. The idea is to make the complete cut (without tabs) on one side, turn the material over and make the cut with tabs again. This way I could have much thinner tabs (in terms of thickness) than tabs with the same thickness as the material.
Thank you very much for the approach, it is not new to me but it allows me to share the result of the experience I obtained.
