Troubleshooting
Die not cutting through material cleanly.
Ensure you are using the correct 'sandwich' combination for your die-cutting machine. You may need to add an extra shim or use a stronger cutting plate. Check if the die is positioned correctly within the machine's rollers.
Embossing is faint or inconsistent.
Adjust the pressure settings on your machine or try a different embossing mat. Ensure the die is oriented correctly for embossing as per your machine's instructions.
Material sticks to the die.
Use a non-stick craft mat or a thin layer of a crafting spray release agent on your material before cutting. Ensure all cutting edges are clean.
Die appears bent or damaged.
Inspect the die carefully. Minor bends in the metal might be gently straightened with pliers, but significant damage may affect its cutting ability and require replacement.
