Autocompensator Operation
The autocompensator is a paper pick device that generates its own normal force. This force generation is inherent in the fundamental design of the pick arm. If light media is used, it picks very gently. If a heavy media is used, it picks very aggressively. No customer adjustments are necessary, therefore no special trays are needed for card stock or labels.
The gearing in the arm is designed so the input torque from the motor produces a movement about the pivot of the arm. This movement produces a downward force at the pick rolls. The friction between the pick roll and the paper produces a frictional locking condition. If the paper is physically held and not allowed to feed, then the motor stalls. Slippage between the roll and the paper is theoretically impossible. When the motor is energized the pick rolls are driven down into the stack increasing the normal force and drive force until the bending strength of the paper is overcome and the paper bends and moves up the dam. Once this critical threshold is achieved the normal force remains at a level just high enough to reliably feed the paper. Rather than having a fixed spring force for
