6.2.11 Knife Block Guiding System
A knife block, that is tilting too much, decreases the life of the knife block guiding. In
the end these will be damaged too much resulting in breaking out.
Check whether the knife block is tilting during shearing of narrow material.
If this is the case, it is necessary to reset the guiding on the side of the shear.
While resetting, make sure the knife block is in the centre of the cylinder bar as much
as possible.
By setting a minimum tolerance on one or two sides, unnecessary wear is prevented.
If desired our service department can carry out these activities.
