Setting of Gapset Knobs for the operation of the folder:
Proper
setting
of
each
gapset
is
determined
by
the
least
amount
of
sheet
thicknesses
passing
thru
each
nip
between
the
different
fold
rolls.
For
instance,
if
you
are
folding
a
sheet
of
20#
bond,
and
the
least
amount
of
sheet
thicknesses
of
passing
thru
the
#1,
#2
&
#3
rolls
was
1,
and
the
least
amount
of
sheet
thicknesses
of
passing
thru
the
#4
was
2,
and
the
least
amount
of
sheet
thicknesses
of
passing
thru
#5
was
4,
then
you
would
set
the
gapset
knobs
for
the
#1,
#2
&
#3
rolls
at
1,
the
#3
&
#4
rolls
at
2,
and
the
#5
roll
at
4.
For thicker and thinner stocks than the 20# bond, set the gapsets as you would for 20# bond.
a) If you notice pressure marks or sever cracking on the sheet, reduce the amount
of
fold
roll
pressure
of
the
proper
fold
roll
by
rotating
the
gapset
knob
clockwise.
b) If you notice that the sheet is stumbling as it passes thru the fold bank or the
fold
is
not
crisp/tight
enough,
increase
the
amount
of
fold
roll
pressure
of
the
proper
fold
roll
by
rotating
the
gapset
knobs
counter-‐clockwise.
