Before any Conair puller/cutters are shipped, they are tested for cut time repeatability to be sure they are within perfor- mance specifications. The repeatability test checks the perfor- mance of the rotary knife cutter to return the home park posi- tion after a complete cut. Acceptable repeatability times allowed for each cutter model prior to shipping are:

Type of Cutter

Repeatability Time

AC Pneumatic Cutter

Less than 1 millisecond

DC Pneumatic Cutter

Less than 1.5 millisecond

Positional Servo (FX)

Less than 0.1 millisecond

 

 

 

Note: 1-millisecond at 60 feet per minute is equal to .012 inches.

The repeatability mode is built into the Conair cutter controls and allows you to perform similar tests, without any external test equipment. It is recommended that you check repeatability on a regular basis. Acceleration/deceleration delays of the servo do not contribute to repeatability error; any error is attributed solely to motor stability, couplings, assembly, power, and proximity sensor alignment.

Use any blade speed and line speed. The line speed is only seen while in the Encoder or Product modes. It is recommend- ed that the tests be performed at cut intervals between 0.5 and 5-seconds. Do not change the blade speed or the line speed after starting the test.

To test repeatability:
