Rotary Perforation
The rotary perforation process uses circular blades mounted on the rotary tool carrier to
perforate sheets in the process direction.
NOTE:
1. Perforation and creasing can be carried out simultaneously. However, if any skew
adjustment is made to the feeder in order to compensate for the perforation line being “out of
square”, this may affect the accuracy of the crease. If this occurs adjust crease skew
separately (see “Setting Crease Tilt Knob” section of this manual).
2. By adjusting the outfeed drive tires relative to the drive hubs it is possible to steer the sheet,
(i.e. by placing the tire on top of the hub on one side of the paper only).
To set up rotary perforation a perforation blade and an opposing
hardened anvil is necessary. This machine comes with a single
perforation blade and an anvil. The perforation blades and anvils
are split into two matching halves and are fitted to the drive wheels
using the four screws supplied. Do not mix the matching pairs of
blades or anvils as this will result in poor perforation.
CAUTION:
The circular blades are very sharp. Handle with care.
Setting up rotary perforation
1. Open the top cover.
2. Remove the rotary tool carrier.
