Adjustment methods for wire feed and retract clips on high speed nail forging machine
When changing wire diameter, it is necessary to adjust the wire feed (retract) clips to ensure that the wire is smoothly engaged by the reciprocating motion of the clips without causing obvious scratches.
1. Adjust the wire feed clip by loosening the bearing locking bolt.
2. Rotate the inner wire feed clip eccentric sleeve and adjust it to the appropriate position, tightening it to prevent the wire from slipping backward (the spring force should not be too high to avoid scratching the wire during retracting).
3. If rotating the inner wire feed clip eccentric sleeve does not effectively hold the wire, loosen the cutter locking bolt and adjust the height of the cutter base appropriately by adding or removing shims.
4. Adjust the wire retract clip similarly to the wire feed clip adjustment, by loosening the bearing locking bolt.
5. Rotate the inner wire retract clip eccentric sleeve and adjust it to the appropriate position, tightening it to prevent the wire from slipping backward (the spring force should not be too high to avoid scratching the wire).
6. If rotating the inner "eccentric sleeve of the wire ejector clip" does not effectively clamp the wire, loosen the "clip locking bolt" and adjust the height of the clip on the base by adding or removing "shims".
7. After adjusting the wire feed and retractor clip, adjust the center height of the wire ejector clip, using the center height of the wire feed clip as the reference (loosen the "wire ejector clip base plate locking screw" and lock it in place).
8. Adjust the wire inlet guide.
9. Adjust the vertical and horizontal position of the "wire feed box". The wire passing through the wire feed and retractor clip and "wire inlet guide" must be aligned with the center of the "nail feed belt groove". The wire must be straight. (All control points, namely the "wire feed (ejection) clip", "wire inlet guide", "cutters", and "nail feed belt groove center", must be on the same straight line.)
