Tool offset refers to the distance between the blade tip and the center of the tool’s shank, affecting cutting accuracy, particularly in sharp corners and intricate designs. A well-calibrated offset enables the CNC to compensate during toolpath generation for precise cuts. For more specialized applications, like creasing, the Donek Tools Creasing Attachment offers a larger offset (0.800in), optimized for its function. Choosing a drag knife with the right offset for your software and cutting needs allows for cleaner, more accurate results. Multiple offset options ensure you can pick the best tool for either general cutting or specialized tasks.
