In the process of embossing and hollowing engraving with a CNC engraving machine, the selection and use of knives and jackets is a very important part. Incorrect use of knives can easily cause damage to the knives and even reduce the engraving effect. How to use woodworking engraving machine tools correctly, we only need to follow the following principles.

 

1. Always check the toughness and sharpness of the tool. If you find that the tool is blunt or the edge is damaged, it is best to replace it immediately. If you continue to use it, not only the engraving effect is not good, but also the danger of breaking the knife.

 

2. The thickness of the material to be processed cannot exceed the thickness of the cutting edge that can be cut and engraved, otherwise the knife will be broken or the engraving effect will be unsatisfactory.

 

3. For engraving and cutting of different materials, different tools should be selected and the cutting and engraving speed should be modified reasonably.

 

4. The engraving and cutting speed should be balanced, and the processing speed should be as consistent as possible. The engraving and cutting process should be done in one go to prevent the occurrence of broken-point, cross-section and knife marks.

 

5. When the knives are not in use, applying butter can prevent the knives from rusting.

 

6. Do not sharpen or change the shape of the blade by yourself.

 

The above points are the principles that we need to pay attention to when using CNC router machine. I hope it will be helpful for you to use the engraving machine.
