Adjusting the cutter bushing gap

If the bushing gap is too big, material is dragged down between the bushings creating a burr, especially with flexibles. This may lead to jamming within the bushings where the upstream side of the cut extrudate actually hits against the downstream bushing surface. This is especially apparent with flexibles with non-concentric walls where a slight bow is pre- sent.

●Locate the downstream bushing such that it touches the blade without deflecting it. Lock it in place and rotate the blade to check proper gap.

●Locate the upstream cutter bushing with 0.001-0.002 inch of the blade and lock it in place. Rotate the blade through the set bushings to insure proper gap. NOTE: Because blades are rarely perfectly flat, it is possible that a swish- ing sound will be heard.

●If hairs are present on only the upstream cut end of a tube or profile, it may be necessary to allow a 0.002-0.005 inch gap on the downstream bushing to allow the blade to slightly move with the extrudate during the cutting cycle and not cause excessive frictional heat which actually melts the extrudate. NOTE: Blade/bushing lubrication can also help to solve this problem.
