Descriptions
Master Pick-up Roller Drive and Master Clamper Open
When the clamper motor opens the drum master clamper [B], the master pick-up
roller [A] contacts the leading edge of the master on the drum. The clamper motor
moves the master pick-up roller against the drum through the idle gear [D], while
driving the clamper opening arm [C].
At the same time as the drum master clamper [B] closes after the master is picked
up, the master pick-up roller [A] also moves back to the original position.
The drum guide is also released at the same time. The drum continues turning
towards the master making position while the used master is removed from the
drum.
