5.1.5 Static Control Bar
Static electricity can
prevent strips from falling
into the output chute.
These strips may be cut
repeatedly. Some
materials are more likely
than others to generate
static electricity.
A static control bar is provided to de-ionize strips after they have passed through the
blade set. The static control power supply is located inside the machine and is
active when the machine is on. The static control bar is attached to a steel rail
mounted at the rear of the unit. The groove in the static control bar should be
cleaned with clean dry pressurized air on a regular basis. See Section 7.2.
IMPORTANT: Do not insert tools or other objects into the slot of
the static control bar. A painful but not hazardous shock (roughly
equivalent to the shock received from shuffling across a carpet,
and then touching a grounded metal object) can result.
The pins inside the groove could also be damaged.
5.1.6 Optional Components
Wide Blade Option – The blade in the Matrix™ 2360 Programmable
Shear is 101.6 mm (4”). The Matrix™ 2360S model has a 152.4 mm (6”)
blade. The entire machine is larger to accommodate the blade. This
allows for the cutting of wider materials.
Infeed Options -
▪ Roll Support Spindle – Supports a roll of material to be fed into the
system. Unlike the Optional Automatic Roll Feed, this device has no
motor. The material is pulled from the roll by tension from the drive
rollers. See Section 6.1 for more details and the installation procedure.
▪ Automatic Roll Feed Module with Free Loop Sensor - The
automatic roll feed module has a motor that rotates a hub to allow
material to flow from the roll without tension. A free-loop sensor
controls the motion of the hub to insure a constant supply of material.
The motor has its own control panel with power on, forward, and
