Plastic granulator cutter rolls are typically used to cut straight-edged sheet blanks. The cutting process should ensure the linearity and parallelism of the cut surface of the material being cut, minimizing material deformation to obtain high-quality workpieces. It belongs to forging machinery and its main function is in metal processing industries.
A shear blade is a special type of mechanical blade that applies cutting force to metal sheets of various thicknesses by moving the upper blade and fixing the lower blade. It breaks and separates the metal sheets with a reasonable gap according to the required dimensions. When using shear blades in plastic granulators, we should pay attention to the working condition of the shear blades. Today, let's look at how to adjust the shear blades of a plastic granulator.
Plastic Plastic Granulator Shear Blades It is usually used to cut straight-edged plate blanks. The cutting process should ensure the straightness and parallelism of the cutting surface of the material being cut, minimizing material deformation to obtain high-quality workpieces. It belongs to one of the forging and pressing machines and its main function is in metal processing industries.
Before adjusting the gap of the plastic granulator shear blades, the total gap between the upper and lower blades should be increased, and the slider should be lowered to the position to be inspected. The total gap adjustment is done via the handwheel on the shear's control panel. To adjust the gap of the shear blades, first adjust the cutting angle of the upper blade of the shear to 0°. After adjusting the shear blade to a cutting angle of 0°, turn off the oil pump, and then manually adjust the throttle valve, slowly lowering the slider until the upper and lower blades overlap by 1-2 mm, then close the throttle valve. Then, the gap between the upper and lower blades of the shear can be adjusted to the minimum via the handwheel on the panel. Then, use a feeler gauge to check and record the actual gap between the upper and lower blades.
Plastic granulator shear blades may not be very common, but they are also important to industrial activities, so the quality of plastic granulator shear blades should be taken very seriously.
