UV Printer Jig Builder

Batch printing is only fast if every print lands in its pocket. That takes one plan for both machines.

How it works

UV Printer Jig Builder, step by step

You measure one blank. It lays out a jig with a pocket for as many as fit your printer bed, gives you the cut file for the laser, and gives your UV printer a layout that puts your art in the middle of every pocket. A paper test prints the pocket outlines first, so you prove the alignment on paper before you spend a single blank.

  1. Measure one blankRectangle, rounded rectangle or circle, at its widest. Clearance is added so they drop in.
  2. Pick your printer bedeufyMake E1 small or max bed, xTool O1, or any size for another printer.
  3. Cut the jigThe SVG goes straight to LightBurn or xTool. An arrow marks the corner that seats against the bed.
  4. Test on paper, then printPrint the outlines on paper with the jig in place, nudge the offset if needed, then drop the blanks in and print.

Why it is built this way

The decisions behind it

One plan, two machinesThe cut file and the print layout come from the same numbers, so they cannot disagree about where a pocket is.
Ready for your printerA real eufyMake Studio or xTool Studio project with the white and varnish layers set, not just an image to position by eye.
Proved before it costs youThe paper test shows exactly where the print will land. Blanks are expensive; paper is not.

Questions

UV Printer Jig Builder — common questions

How do I make a jig for my UV printer?

Measure one blank, pick your printer bed, and the tool lays out as many pockets as fit, with clearance so the blanks drop in and a border so the jig holds together. Cut the SVG on your laser from sheet stock about the thickness of your blanks, seat it with the arrowed corner in the same corner of the bed every time, and print.

How do I get the print to line up with the jig?

Both files come from the same pocket plan, so the layout already matches the jig. Print the paper test with the jig in place first: every outline should land on a pocket edge. If the whole pattern is shifted, change the jig corner offset by that amount and test again. Once it lines up, those offsets stay right for that jig.

Which printers does it support?

It writes ready-to-print projects for the eufyMake E1 (small and max beds) and the xTool O1, with the white and varnish layers set. For any other UV printer choose a custom size and you get the layout as a PNG at 300 dpi, stamped with its size so it opens at the right size in your RIP.

What clearance should the pockets have?

Start at about 0.25 mm (0.01 in) all round. The laser kerf already makes the hole a little bigger than the line, and blanks vary from batch to batch. If blanks rattle, reduce it; if they jam, add a little.
