Curio 2 kan skära i vinyl och papper, samt plotta med pennor, gravera, trycka relief och foliera på passande material.
The Silhouette Curio 2 is a precision flatbed cutting machine featuring an electrostatic bed for cutting without a mat, 20mm vertical clearance for thicker materials, and two tool holders. It offers automatic tool detection and material thickness measurement. Supports projects including cutting, engraving, pen plotting, foil heat transfer and embossing.


== Usage ==
⚠️ The electrostatic cutting table '''must always be used with the protective plastic sheet on top'''. Failing to do this will cause permanent damage to the electrostatic grabbing surface.


⚠️ Det elektrostatiska skärbordet '''måste användas med skyddsplast''' ovanpå, annars kan det skadas permanent av kniven.
=== '''Starting the Machine''' ===
Power on the machine by pressing and holding the power button on the right side.


== Handhavande ==
=== '''Preparing the cutting Table''' ===


# Starta maskinen med långt tryck på strömknappen på högra sidan
# Make sure the electrostatic cutting table (painted metal surface, without raised edges) is mounted in the cutter
# Se till att det elektrostatiska skärbordet (målad metallyta, utan upphöjda kanter) sitter monterat i skäraren. För att byta, dra bordet rakt ut mot dig, efter ungefär halva vägen kan det lyftas ut.
# To change it, pull the table straight out towards you. About halfway out, it can be lifted free.
# Se till att den transparenta skyddsplasten ligger över skärbordet, kant till kant, använd en mjuk skrapa vid behov för att få plasten platt
# Place the transparent protective plastic sheet over the cutting table, edge to edge. Use a soft scraper, if needed to flatten it.
# Tryck på touch-knappen som aktiverar det elektrostatiska fästet [bild eller beskrivning av ikonen]
# Press the touch button that activates the electrostatic hold [needs icon/image].
# Lägg på materialet som ska skäras.
 
## Materialet måste vara absolut utplattat för att fästa väl elektrostatiskt
=== '''Preparing the material''' ===
## Det går också bra att lägga en vanlig Cameo-matta ovanpå
# Place the material you want to cut on the table.
# Vänta en stund (c:a 1 minut) för att fästet ska hårdna
# The material must be completely flat in order to adhere well electrostatically.
# Försök att röra på materialet med handens alla fingrar. Om det håller emot så är fästet bra nog för att skära.
# You can also place a regular Cameo mat on top instead.
# Om det du ska skära inte fäster väl, byt till "debris"-plattan (den är plast rakt igenom och med upphöjda kanter) och tejpa fast en Cameo-matta på den.
# Wait for around a minute for the electric charge to grab the material properly.
# Välj verktyg. Verktygen byts genom att dra ut delen som sticker ut framåt för att lossa, sen ta ut verktyget uppåt, och samma procedur baklänges för att sätta i nytt verktyg.
# Try moving the material with all fingertips on one hand. If it resists movement, the hold is strong enough to cut.
# Den helt vita kniven är "auto depth", och lämplig om du ska skära men inte vet exakt vilken inställning du vill ha.
# If the material does not adhere well, switch to the “debris” plate (made entirely of plastic with raised edges) and tape a Cameo mat onto it.
# Starta Silhouette Studio på datorn vid skärmaskinerna
 
# Öppna din design och justera storlek och placering
=== '''Tool selection''' ===
# Om du ska använda Cameo-matta för att matcha placeringen exakt, se till att välja Cameo mat bland alternativen till höger i fönstret, och justera transparensen så att du kan se linjer och nummer
# To change tools: pull forward on tool holder's protruding tab, lift the tool upward. Iinsert the new tool using the same procedure in reverse.
# Tryck på fliken "SEND"
# The completely white cutting tool is “auto depth” one, suitable for cutting when you are unsure of the exact settings.
# Välj de(t) verktyg du satt i, och det material du ska använda.
 
# Ställ in tryck och skärdjup.
=== '''Software preparation''' ===
# För textiltransfer, schabloner och liknande, välj "mirror" om du inte redan spegelvänt din design
# Start ''Silhouette Studio'' on the computer next to the cutting machines.
# Tryck på Send
# Open your design and adjust its size and placement.
# Nu skärs/ritas/graveras din design
# If using the Cameo grid mat for precise placement, select ''Cameo Mat'' from the options on the right side of the window, and adjust the transparency slider so you can see lines and numbers.
 
=== '''Cutting''' ===
# Click the '''SEND''' tab.
# Select the tool(s) you inserted and the material you are using.
# Adjust the force and cutting depth settings.
# For textile transfers, stencils, and similar materials, choose '''Mirror''' (unless you have already mirrored your design, earlier in the process).
# Click '''Send'''.
# Your design will now be cut / drawn / engraved
