Default Re: what is weeding?

The removal of the unwanted parts of heatpress or sign vinyl after cutting on a CAD cut plotter. You are weeding the excess vinyl from the cut design just like weeding the weeds from your garden.

The vinyl cutter is a computer driven cutter, and CAD stands for Computer Aided Design. The vinyl cutter is often referred as a plotter, plotter-cutter and sometimes, a CAD cutter.

In all instances, it is a computer driven plotter, with a cutting blade instead of a ink pen.
