3.6.3.2 Function introduction
Adjusting the cutting position
A great development of ASDA-A2 on packing machine is the function of mark correction. The
packaging film has ductility, thus it is very sensitive to different tension. When the tension is too
big, it would extend the length of packaging film; if the tension is loose, the packaging film slips
easily. These two situations would cause the default pulse number cannot consist with the cutting
length and result in incorrect cutting. Synchronous capture axis of ASDA- A2 is design for
improving this situation. When the film is deformed or slips, the cutter is unable to aim at the
default cutting point, the system will be compensated by this function and the cutting position will
be adjusted to the right position. See Figure 3.6.5.
