4-12-1 Feed rotor section adjustment

Turn off the main power before starting this
operation. Otherwise, the rotating parts can
cause severe personal injury.
Feed rotor mechanism
-Air is pulled through the holes on the outside of the
feed rotor, and into the groove in the center of the
cylinder.
-The feed rotor turns while feeding each sheet.The
groove remains in the same position, so the vacuum
is produced at the bottom of the feed rotor.
-After the sheet has moved a certain distance, the
vacuum is stopped by the air cutoff valve and the
sheet is released.
-Set the ratio between the vacuum on time and vac-
uum off time using the feed rotor suction length set-
ting on the Main-Condition screen.

Adjustment of space between feed
rotor and sheet
-If large or thick sheets are loaded and the vacuum is
not strong enough to separate the sheets, move the
sheets closer to the feed rotor. If coarse or porous
sheets are loaded, provide more space between the
sheet and the feed rotor.
-Adjust the space using the feed table sensor adjust-
ing knob.
-In normal operation, the space is 8 mm (0.31") when
the feed table reaches the upper limit point.
-When the table sensor is raised, the gap between
the sheet and the feed rotor is reduced.
