Section IV:  System Assembly 

 
 
 

A.  Assembling Roll Die to Die Shaft: 
 (applies only to 13” systems and above, for 10” systems see “Illustrated Parts” section). 

 

1.  On a clean, level bench; prepare the die for assembly by gently placing it in the “V” blocks provided.  Ensuring the 

blocks are located under the bearers of the die and not on the image. 

 

2.  Remove the bearing block from the press side of the die shaft assembly and set the block aside. 

 

3.  Slide the shaft assembly into the die and align slots in the die bearer and hot stamp journal. 

 

4.  Install the three (3) or four (4) 10-24 socket head cap screws supplied and tighten thoroughly. 

 

5.  Re-assemble the bearing block onto the end of the die shaft. 

 
 
 

B.  Assembling Components in Die Station: 

 

1.  Install the base roll assembly into the station to be used, and check for proper drive gear mesh. 

 

2.  Install the die shaft assembly in the station, making sure the proper gear mesh is achieved. 

 

3.  Install the die assist assembly in the station checking for the correct bearing alignment with the hot stamp die. 

 

4.  The lateral register adjusting plates have been left at their outermost (loosest) position to facilitate an easy first time 

fitting in the station.  To adjust these plates, apply slight outward pressure to the shaft assembly and adjust the plates 
for a snug slide fit on the side frame.  Be sure retaining screws are tight. 

 

5.  Install pressure screws in the usual manner.  Do 

NOT

 attempt to tighten the pressure screws until the hot stamp die 

has reached its operating temperature.  The hot stamp die operating temperature will be specific to each run job and 
die. 

 

NOTE

:  No more than 300 lbs./side of pressure should be applied at any given time.  Excessive pressure will result in 

premature bearing failure and possible tooling damage.
