General explanation of the adjustment of tools
Tools are adjusted with respect to the below-stated three items.
(1) “Adjustment of the cutter” to adjust the low-pressure tangential cutter.
(2) “Adjustment of the roller” to adjust the rollers and “adjustment of the cutter” for the high-
pressure tangential cutter
(3) “Adjustment of the circle θ ” to adjust the tangential cutter to a plotted circle
Adjustment of the cutter
The cutter is adjusted in three different ways as described below.
(1) “Adjustment of the eccentricity” to adjust the eccentricity of the blade tip and tools
(2) “Adjustment of θ angle” to adjust the rotating angle of the cutter
(3) “Adjustment of the offset” to eliminate the deviation between the tangential cutter and the pen
Adjustment of the eccentricity
The blade tip or a tool may be off-center when it is replaced. The following indicates an example
of the blade tip or tool that is off-center and how to adjust it.
Two different patterns for adjustment are simultaneously cut. Sizes of the patterns and the cutting
order are shown below.
