There is a setting gauge for each thread size. The setting gauge has to tasks:
1. The distance of the axles are set-up after mounting the rolls on the attachment. In general the width of the recessed part of the gauge is equivalent to the core diameter of the thread. This dimension has to be setup tight between the rolls.
Please check when using the setting gauge that the marking of attachment size and serial code number are identical to the marking of attachment size and serial code number on the rolls.
2. The size of the stroke is set. The attachment holder is mounted on the slide (turret). The gauge is mounted on the pin of the attachment holder. The slide has to be advanced towards the component direction, until the tip of the gauge touches the blank diameter. This position is the end of the work stroke. |
