Cutting width
This field is only displayed if the machine is
equipped with a "cutting depth" function.
Width over which the upper and lower blades
cross.
Programming this field starts the calculation of
the BDC (cutting depth, figure 3).
Blade gap (AF1)
Gap between the cutting blades (in 1/100) for
the sheet thickness and material chosen.
Rake angle
Upper blade angle. It is calculated
automatically but can also be programmed
manually. This field is only displayed if the
machine has a "Rake angle" function.
BDC (AF3)
Cutting depth.
The value calculated for this field corresponds
to the distance (in mm) between the right end
of the upper blade and the lower blade.
TDC (AF3)
This field is only displayed if the machine has a
"Cutting depth" function. Optimum blade
disengagement Top Dead Centre. It is
calculated automatically (if rake angle is
variable) but can also be programmed
manually.
