The CNC machine or vinyl cutter makes small intricate passes on the vinyl material with a knife or blade during the production process. The unwanted vinyl material is then weaved or "picked" from the adhesive backing, leaving the desired graphics, logo, or intended design behind, pre spaced, and ready for the installation of transfer tape. Transfer tape is then applied over the face of the sticker, which holds the shape of the design and allows for a more streamlined installation onto the desired surface in one piece.
