YINK FAQ Series | Episode 3
Q1｜What’s new in YINK 6.5?
This is a concise, user-friendly summary for installers and buyers.
New Features :
1.Model Viewer 360
- Preview full‑vehicle images directly in the editor. This reduces back‑and‑forth checks and helps confirm fine details (sensors, trims) before cutting.
2.Multi‑Language Pack
- UI and search support for major languages. Mixed‑language teams collaborate faster and reduce naming confusion.
3.Inch Mode
- Imperial measurement option for shops used to inches — cleaner numbers in edge expansion, spacing, and layout height.
Experience Improvements (15+)
a.Smoother layout and editing during long batch jobs; improved memory handling.
b.Faster search & filtering by year / trim / region; better fuzzy matches and aliases.
c.Cleaner DXF/SVG export and improved compatibility for external CAD/CAM.
d.Snappier UI interactions; more responsive zoom/pan; minor bug fixes that reduce unexpected stops.
Core Tools (kept)
Editing/Prep: One‑key Edge Expansion (single & full‑car), Add Text, Delete/Fix Door Handles, Straighten, Split Big Roof, Graphical Decomposition, Separation Line.
Data Libraries: Global Automotive Model Data, Interior Patterns, Motorcycle PPF Kits, Skylight Ice Armor Films, Logo Engraving, Helmet Decals, Mobile Electronic Equipment Films, Car Key Protection Films, Full Body Part Kits.
Takeaway: 6.5 is about being faster, steadier, and easier to find.
Q2｜How to choose among the four 6.5 plans?
Start from the problem you need to solve: trial/short‑term, year‑round stability, or extreme material savings.

Super Nesting = advanced auto‑layout that packs parts tighter to reduce film waste when applicable.
Deep‑Dive: What the 6.5 Upgrades Mean in Daily Work
1) Model Viewer 360 → Fewer rechecks, cleaner cuts
Keep a reference image in sight while editing patterns; reduce tab‑switching and mismatches on complex bumpers/roof pieces.
Tip: Pin the viewer next to the edit canvas; zoom to confirm sensor holes/trim differences before sending to cut.
2) Multi‑Language Pack → Faster teamwork
Let frontline installers search using their native terms while managers keep English. Mixed‑language teams stay aligned.
Tip: Standardize a short internal glossary for trims and packages so search results stay consistent.
3) Inch Mode → Less mental conversion
For shops that measure in inches, Inch Mode removes conversion friction in edge expansion, spacing, and layout height.
Tip: Pair Inch Mode with saved Edge‑Expansion Templates for repeatable results across branches.
4) 15+ Experience Improvements → Stability on long runs
Smoother navigation in large jobs; better memory handling during long batch cuts; cleaner DXF/SVG export when you need external CAD.
Tip: For long parts, keep Segment Cutting on; verify the first segment before full send.
Quick‑Start Checklist (Post‑Upgrade)
1.Refresh → Align → Test Cut → Full Cut (golden sequence).
2.Load your saved Edge‑Expansion Templates (front bumper, hood, roof).
3.Set Spacing and Layout Height for your film width; verify in Inch or Metric.
4.Run a 1‑car pilot (large + small pieces) and note film used + time spent.
5.If film feed drifts, increase fan by 1 level and re‑align; avoid peeling liner on the machine to reduce static.
Plan Selection: Case-Based Guide
Case 1 | Small shop in Brazil, 1 year old (2 installers, 5–10 cars/mo)
- Who you are: A neighborhood shop—low volume, priority is getting the workflow smooth.
- Current pain: Not familiar with model search; unsure about spacing/edge settings; not sure if Super Nesting (SN) is necessary.
- Recommended plan: Start with Basic (Monthly) for 1–2 weeks (Basic does not include SN). If material waste feels obvious, move to Pro (Monthly) to unlock SN; consider an annual plan after things stabilize.
- On-site tips:
- Create 3 edge-expansion templates (front bumper / hood / roof).
- Follow Refresh → Align → Test cut → Full cut on every job.
- Track film used / time spent for 10 cars to decide upgrades with data.
Case 2 | Peak season surge (30 cars in two weeks)
- Who you are: Usually moderate volume, but you just took a time-critical campaign.
- Current pain: Need tighter layouts to cut swapping and waste.
- Recommended plan: Pro (Monthly) (Pro includes SN). If high throughput continues after peak season, evaluate Premium (Annual) (includes SN).
- On-site tips: Build batch layout templates for hot models; use Segment Cutting for long parts; group small pieces for single-pass cutting to reduce downtime.
Case 3 | Steady local shop (30–60 cars/mo)
- Who you are: Mostly common models, steady work all year.
- Current pain: Care more about consistency and support than extreme material savings.
- Recommended plan: Standard (Annual) (Standard does not include SN). If film waste proves significant later, consider Premium (Annual) (includes SN).
- On-site tips: Standardize layout rules and edge parameters; document an SOP. For missing models, email 6 angles + VIN to speed data creation.
Case 4 | High-throughput / chain (60–150+ cars/mo, multi-site)
- Who you are: Multiple locations working in parallel; efficiency and material control must scale.
- Current pain: Need scalable savings and priority support.
- Recommended plan: Premium (Annual) (includes SN) to lock in year-round nesting efficiency and support.
- On-site tips: HQ maintains unified edge templates/naming rules; use Multi-Language for cross-region teams; review monthly film/time metrics for continuous improvement.
Case 5 | Own another brand’s plotter, want to check compatibility first
- Who you are: You already have a cutter, first time trying YINK.
- Current pain: Worried about integration and learning curve; want a small-scope trial.
- Recommended plan: Basic (Monthly) for connectivity & workflow validation (Basic does not include SN). If you later need tighter nesting, move to Pro (Monthly) (includes SN) or choose an annual plan based on needs.
- On-site tips: Run one end-to-end pilot car (search → layout → test cut → full car). Confirm connection, fan levels, and alignment before scaling.
Post‑Upgrade FAQ (6.5)
Q1. Do I need to reinstall drivers?
Generally no; if connection drops, prefer wired USB/Ethernet, disable OS power‑saving for USB, and retry.
Q2. Why do small badges lift during cut?
Increase fan 1 level, add 1–2 mm safety margin, and group small pieces for a single pass.
Q3. Patterns look offset after long jobs.
Use Align just before sending; keep liner peeling off the machine to avoid static; use Segment Cutting for very long parts.
Q4. Can I switch languages per user?
Yes—enable Multi‑Language and set user preference（When installing）; keep a shared glossary so search terms map to the same trims.
Q5. Does Inch Mode affect existing templates?
Values convert, but verify edge‑expansion numbers on a test cut before batch production.
