12 best cameo silhouette machine

Product description

Silhouette Cameo 4

• The silhouette Cameo 4 is the evolution in desktop cutting. The sleek Backlit touch panel lets you load, unload, and pause your projects in style. Conveniently stored in the machine's compact pull-out drawer is a new built in roll feeder for quickly cutting vinyl and heat transfer material directly from a roll. On the back of the Cameo 4 You will find a built in cross cutter allowing for a clean straight edge cut on your vinyl roll for your next project.
• The Cameo unique dual carriage allows for tool Type detection. The machine's ultra-smart system uses tool sensor technology that detects what tool you are using which then triggers the silhouette Studio software to adjust cut settings automatically.
• The Cameo 4 stands apart from previous models with the new dual motor system, which allows you to cut in two distinct ways. Carriage one provides the Cameo 4 with unparalleled speed. It is operated from a solenoid motor that gives makers smooth and intricate cuts. Cameo 4 can cut or sketch up to 3x faster than previous models without sacrificing accuracy. Carriage two is operated by an entirely different style of motor that allows for unprecedented power.
• The Cameo 4 carriage 2 boasts additional cutting force! With the increased downforce of the Cameo 4, we now offer a new rotary and Kraft blade (Sold separately) that have been specifically designed to operate with the Cameo smart tangential technology. With smart tangential technology the Cameo 4 cuts thicker material without sacrificing quality with each cut. The Cameo 4 offers true mat-less cutting which allows cutting cardstock, paper, and other materials without using a mat.
• The autoblade has been reconfigured especially for the Cameo 4. This second generation autoblade will have a single-tap reset which will reduce the time needed for the Cameo 4 to automatically adjust the blade setting for your project.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can this cut into balsa wood and Mat boards? What blade would I need to use
Answer:	It can only cut 3mm thick materials., so it would have to be very thin balsa wood and mat boards. These materials should be cut using the Kraft blade.
Question:	can i use my own 2mm thick felt? 2) uplaod my own designs? 3) will this require a monthly subscription? 4) is cutting bade i'd need available now
Answer:	Hi Patricia, Here are the answers to each of your questions. (1) The Cameo 4 can cut up to 3mm thick, so your 2mm thick felt should be cut without any problems. (2) There are several file types that Silhouette Studio can import. If you have the basic version of Studio you can import STUDIO/STUDIO3 files, GSD/GST and DXF files. The software can also import image file types (JPG, PNG, BMP, GIF and TIF Files) and then trace the image using an auto-trade function to create cut lines. Upgraded version of Studio software can import additional file types. Silhouette Studio Designer edition can import SVG and PDF files. Silhouette Studio Plus can import embroidery file types, such as PES, DST, EXP, JEF, and XXX files. Our Studio Business Edition add the ability to open Adobe Illustrator and CorelDRAW native files, AI, EPS and CDR. (3) No monthly subscription is required to use and operate the Cameo 4. In the Silhouette Design store you can subscribe to a monthly subscription, we offer many subscription options that best suits your needs. If you choose to not renew the subscription, you will still have access to the designs you previously downloaded. The free 1-month Subscription comes with the purchase of the Cameo 4. Any designs or fonts downloaded during that time are yours to use forever. (4) Yes the blade you would need is available. We would recommend the Rotary blade for cutting felt. Retailers are just receiving them now. We hope you enjoy your new Cameo 4. If you have any additional questions please let us know. The Silhouette Team
Question:	How does this compare to Cricut Maker
Answer:	There are many differences from the Silhouette Cameo 4 that set it apart from other cutting machines on the market. The biggest difference is the power of the Silhouette Studio software. The software is available 24/7 on your computer. It is very easy to use yet very powerful! The basic version comes free with your Cameo 4. The Cameo 4 now comes with a built in roll feeder, which allows you to cut rolled material such a vinyl and heat transfer material. The Cameo can accommodate material 12 inches wide and 10 feet in length. The Cameo, unlike other machines, can cut paperbacked materials without the use of a cutting mat. There is also a built in cross cutter that allows for cutting your rolled materials with a straight edge. The new Cameo 4 now boasts the ability to accommodate the new Silhouette Rotary blade and Kraft blade. With the increased downforce available, the rotary blade and Kraft blade can cut materials that were not previously available to cut with a Cameo cutter. The Rotary Blade for Cameo 4 provides an alternate method of cutting by having the blade roll across your material. This enables you to cut a variety of specialty material—including cotton fabrics, leather, felt, wool, and more—without a special stabilizer backing. The 3mm Kraft Blade for the Cameo 4 allows you to cut specialty craft materials, such as acetate, craft foam, burlap, and leather. The 3 mm depth is designed specifically to take advantage of the increased clearance the Cameo 4 has to cut even thicker materials. Please note the Kraft Blade and the Rotary Blade are sold separately. With the new carriage the Cameo is now on the same level as the Maker. The Cameo 4 is also cheaper by $100 in comparison. The Cameo 4 has a clearance of 3mm, which allows for thicker materials to be cut. The Cameo 4 also has an industry first of cutting many materials without a cutting mat this new feature allows for cutting paper, card stock and other materials without a cutting mat. Overall the Cameo 4 has set the bar higher than any other cutting machine on the market!

User questions & answers

Question:	How does it match up with the print outs on my paper to accurately cut out what is printed? Or is that not something it can do
Answer:	There are two ways that you can "print and cut". One is by using a special new mat called the PixScan that is available for it, and an app that goes with it on your phone. With that you can cut around anything...it doesn't have to be something you printed from the Silhouette software. It can be a stamped image, or handwriting, or whatever. The other way is by creating the file in Silhouette's Design Studio software and then adding registration marks to your document before printing it. The machine reads these to orient itself on the paper when you feed the paper into the Portrait to cut.
Question:	Can you use 8 1/2" paper even if it only cuts 8" or would you need to trim your paper to
Answer:	I have put 8 1/2 by 11 paper on the mat. You just cannot see all the numbers on the side but you do not have to cut it to 8 inches. Hope this helps. I absolutely love my Silhouette and I still do not even know how to use have of the items yet.
Question:	Will the software that comes with this print .ai files? Is there other software that will print out designs for this printer
Answer:	Not the software that comes with it. However you can buy Silhouette Connect software for $40 which allows you to cut directly in Adobe Illustrator. Would highly recommend using that program if you know Illustrator.
Question:	What will the Cameo do that the Portrait will not do
Answer:	I had purchased the Portrait, but found I was limited on what I could create since it's width is just 8 inches wide. Most of the paper or vinyl I wanted to use with the Portrait were at least 8 1/2 inches wide. So I bought the Cameo and I'm very happy with it. Other than the width limitation, they both operate the same way.
