3.1 Element Closing
Use the following procedure to correct books that are over-closed or
under-closed by the eWire. To determine if an element is over-closed
or under-closed, refer to the diagram below.
Dimension X Max.
2.00mm
Dimension x Min.
0.25mm
3.1.1 Element Unevenly Closed
The element is considered unevenly closed when The “X” dimension on
one side of the binding varies from the “X” dimension on the other side of
the binding. Often one side will be properly closed while the other is either
insufficiently closed or overly closed.
1. Do ADJ 1.11 Closer Cam Phase Adjustment
3.1.2 Element Insufficiently Closed
The element is considered under-closed if it is possible to pull a sheet out
of the twin loop binding by tugging on the end of the sheet. An element is
also considered under-closed if dimension “X” above is less than 0.25 mm.
The primary cause of under-closed books is insufficient travel of the Closer
jaws. To correct under-closure, follow the steps below.
1. D0 GP 6.2.2 to access the CLOSING menu. Note the current
value.
2. Increase the value by one and exit the Settings Menu.
3. Run another set of books and re-measure the wire loop overlap. If
the new book meets the spec, return to normal operation.
4. If the new book is still under-closed, repeat Steps 2 and 3.
3.1.3 Element Over Closed
The element is considered over-closed if Dimension X in the diagram
above exceeds 2 mm. An over-closed element may also appear to be oval
shaped, instead of round. The primary cause of an over-closed book is if
the Closer jaws travel too far during book closing. To correct over-closure,
follow the steps below.
1. DO GP 6.2.2 to access the CLOSING menu. Note the current
value.
2. Decrease the value by one and exit the Settings Menu.
3. Run another set of books and re-measure the wire loop overlap.
Visually inspect the loops to ensure that they are round. If the new
book meets the spec, return to normal operation.
4. If the new book is still over-closed, repeat Steps 2 and 3.
