  • a single comb roller is usually used to adjust the projection, which is driven by a pair of gearwheels of the respective cylinder during normal operation of the machine, a section of this roller engaging one of the gearwheels while the other section engaging the other gearwheel: the operator causes a slight axial displacement of this comb roller, the axis of which remains parallel to that of the cylinder in question, as a result of which a slight angular displacement can be achieved in the desired direction between the pair of gearwheels belonging together.

  • the position of the release of the punctures should be changed, which is done by rotating the associated cam 91 with the aid of a cylinder 92, as shown in FIG.
  • the position of the release of the grippers can be changed by moving a part of a double cam 93 with the aid of a corresponding cylinder 94 (in this case it is a double cam with which the gripping position is fixed, but the release at variable positions can take place, which corresponds to a cam with an aperture).
  • the opening and closing of the various rows of punches, folding jaws and grippers is controlled by cams which are firmly connected to the frame and are concentric with the corresponding cylinder which they act on, and which, in a completely conventional manner, control rollers connected to the various shafts by means of levers, as is the case with other folders .
  • Such a setting of the positions at which the rows of punctures and the grippers are released is known to all experts and does not need to be described in detail here.
  • All operations can be carried out one after the other with the help of an electromechanical sequence or with a microprocessor that actuates the various solenoid valves and parts of the relevant automatism.
