Move the servo cutter into position.
Place the
servo cutter in position downstream of the belt puller.
Determine the best distance
from the belt puller to
the SC-5 Sure Cut cutter.
●
For flexible products, the cutter should be located
as close to the puller as possible to insure a mini-
mum amount of space for the product between the
point of exit of the puller and the inlet to the cutter
bushing for most flexible products.
●
For rigid products, allow some deflection space
between the puller and cutter. This will minimize
product sag or excessive deflection during cutting
which could affect the cut length accuracy.
As a general rule, place the cutter such that you feel
no shock from the cut with your fingernail placed
on the extrudate on the entrance of the puller. If you
feel shock form the cut, simply allow more space
between the cutter and puller.
