Infeed drum

6.2 Function
The purpose of the infeed drum is to take the
sheet from the swing gripper and transfer it in
perfect register to the impression cylinder.

The infeed drum is equipped with a gripper

system.

The height of the gripper pad bar is adjustable to

conform to the thickness of the substrate.

The gripper shaft is controlled by a cam at the A

side.

Backlash is eliminated by a backlash gear on

the infeed drum to the impression cylinder gear.

The infeed drum is mounted on needle bearings

at both A and B sides.

The control cam for the swing gripper gripper

shaft is mounted on the inside of the B side.

The control cam for the cover guides is mounted

on the outside of the B side.

The eccentric for the swing gripper movement is

positioned on the outside of the A side.

6.5 Setting the grippers

During all setting work the press must be
secured against turning.

• Turn the press to setting position 356°.

• Set the scale to 0.2.

• Insert a 1 mm feeler gauge between the

roller and the cam.

• Loosen the gripper locking screw.

• Check the gripper pretensioning is 48 Nm

(2.5 mm distance between clamping ring and
housing).

• Press the grippers against the pads.

• Tighten the clamping screws.

• Loosen gripper contact to the gripper pads.

• Set the grippers with 0.03 mm Japan paper.

• Remove the feeler gauge.

Checking transfer from the swing

gripper to infeed drum
• Turn the press into position gauge no. 3
(center of transfer = 78°).

• Infeed drum grippers must close 1.5 ± 0.2

mm before center of transfer.

Mark the values on the bearer with a marking

gauge and pencil.

If the transfer distance is too long or too short,

the gripper settings must be checked.

Correct the position of the gripper opening cam

if necessary.

6.6 Transfer from infeed drum to

impression cylinder
• Check impression cylinder gripper settings.

• Turn press to gauge no. 8 position (center of

transfer = 220°).
- Infeed drum grippers must open 1.5 + 0.5
mm after center of transfer.

Mark the values on the bearer with a marking

gauge and pencil.

If the transfer distance is too long or too short,

this must be corrected by adjusting the cam half.

Mounting the swing gripper eccentric

• Turn the press to gauge no. 6 position
(corresponds to press 0° position).

• Mount both swing gripper eccentrics and

reference them to each other with 16 mm Ø
locating bolt.
With gauge no 18 between the bearing bolt of
the swing gripper roller lever and the reference
bolt of the eccentric, set the position of the
eccentric.

Mounting feeder drive 0°

• Mount the feeder drive.

• Reference the eccentric for frontlay control to

the A side sideframe with an 8 mm Ø bolt
(corresponds to press 0° position).

Mounting the cams for the cover

guides
- The control cam for the cover guides is
positioned on the outside of the infeed drum
at the B side.

• Screw and pin the cam to the infeed drum.
