5.1.2 EMBOSSING PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT

Fig. 5.6
The machine is configured by the constructor in the final testing phase for the production of alluminum plates
of thickness 0.5mm. For steel plates or for plates of greater thickness it is necessary to increase the
embossing pressure and this is done as follows:
Lift the front cover, the adjustment knob is located in the center of the machine above the drum (Ref. Fig.
5.6). In order to increase the embossing pressure it is necessary to loosen the nut (1) which locks the knob
(2). This is done with a 13mm wrenc h. Next observing the notches on the knob turn the knob a few degrees
in a clockwise direction. Now tighten the nut.
To diminish the pressure one reverses this process turning the knob in the anti-clockwise direction.
Once the pressure has been adjusted it is advisable to emboss a plate in order to verify that the result is
perfectly even. If this not the case one should repeat the operation until the desired result is obtained.
An inappropriate adjustment can compromise the general working of the
embosser. It is advisable to have this adjustment done by a qualified person or by
Technical Support.
