Digital Die Cutting: More fun than anyone should have with a piece of paper!
I am about to purchase the KNK Zing mainly for engraving on 1/16″ thick acrylic. I can’t find any videos on the web or YouTube of anyone using the engraving feature. Would you happen to have any samples showing engraving products or more specifically engraving acrylic?
Hi John!
I engraved a dog tag on the Zing… but I’ve not engraved acrylic. Based on past experience with the KNK Maxx, the settings will be identical for engraving acrylic. If you will describe what you plan to engrave… lettering size or image size, I’ll do a sample for you!
I’m using the acrylic sheets as seating cards at my wedding this summer. They are 1/16″ thick and I think 2″ by 3″. I’m going to use a fancy scriptive or calligraphy type font to say the persons name and table number I don’t know what size yet but I guess I wouldn’t want the font to be too small on the acrylic cards, I guess 2 lines of text the first line the persons name “Mr. & Mrs. John Smith” the second line the “Table #1″ and the font should be enough to make the card look filled but not oversized or undersized. sorry if my description is terrible. They cards are plexiglass acrylic sheets.
PS I purchased the zing today actually from KNKUSA
Should be an easy application! I’ll play with a few fonts and see how it looks!
Thanks! That’s great! Did you also order an engraving tool?
Yes I ordered an engraving tool the fabric tool and the pen tool and an extra thick material blade I think too
Check your email! I sent you a photo of my first test!
Sandy,
Are there any filled fonts available for engraving?
There are some for KNK Studio but not for MTC. What software are you using?
MTC or can use KNK Studio if need be
In KNK Studio there are some engraving fonts. You can use those to create the text and then copy/paste to MTC for cutting if you are more comfortable with it. To see the engraving fonts, you’ll need to install the fonts from the Clipart and Fonts CD. This is covered in Section 5.1 of the KNK user manuals. To see which fonts are the engraving ones, refer to the Clipart and Fonts Thumbnail directory here:

Thanks Sandy – Any idea when engraving fonts may be added to MTC?
No idea. While we do make requests for enhancements to MTC, we have no control at all over the priority of changes. Note that there are some single line fonts available for MTC which can be used for engraving. Check out the last section of Chapter 5.
I already have the Silhouette Cameo but it does not cut 1/16″ thick anything. I’m considering the KNKZing for cutting mouse pad material that is 1/16″ thick.
Can this be done on the KNKZing?
I’m sure it can be cut. What shapes and sizes of items do you need? I’ve never cut that particular material, but I would think relatively simple shapes would work. You can mail a sample of the material to either KNK USA or to me, if you like. I usually figure out which one of us is closer to the customer. I’ll email you privately.
