Overview

PERCE's important product, Wuxing knife holder, is designed with a knife barrel assembly and a punching module. The knife barrel assembly can easily replace different cutting heads such as vibrating knives, round knives, bevel knives, half-cut knives, and drag knives; the punching module can easily replace the punch and has the punching and cutting function, which can achieve the punching and cutting process effects in one clamping.
Wuxing knife holder uses double guide rails and precision screw drive to realize Z-axis lifting (double guide rails are more stable, shorten the interval to save working area), and uses synchronous belt drive to realize tool rotation.

Component Description

Extension spring：Prevent the tool from sliding down along the Z axis when no power is supplied.

Positioning rod：Used to clamp the tool ears to prevent the upper part of the tool from rotating with the knife barrel.

Couplings：Used for connection between Z-axis motor and lead screw.

Locking wire：Fixed tool.

Stop pin：When installing the tool and tightening the locking wire, press the stop pin to prevent the knife barrel from rotating.

Base Plate：For fixing the knife holder.

Tensioner：Used to adjust the tension of the synchronous belt.

R-axis motor bracket:Control tool rotation motor installation position.

Z-axis motor bracket:Control tool lifting motor installation position.

Punching module:Double punching, can be loaded with punches, with punching and cutting function.

Solenoid valve:Electronic control components, connected to the power system control, gas on and off.

Synchronous wheel:Installed on the R-axis motor.

Quick Connectors:Air pipe connector, external compressed gas inlet.

Pipe Fittings:Installed on the negative pressure valve, connected to the external hose, to collect waste chips.

Instructions for use and debugging

Lead and gear ratio: lead of screw rod 4mm, gear ratio of synchronous wheel 1:4.

Limit switch output: default output NPN NO.

Stop pin operation: press the stop pin and rotate the knife barrel (synchronous wheel) until the stop pin is inserted into the hole; at this time, the stop pin is stuck in the knife barrel, and the locking wire can be loosened by hand or wrench.

Wiring Instructions

The default power supply for the knife holder red light is DC5V, and the default power supply for the limit switch is DC24V

Precautions

Before powering on, confirm that the wiring is correct.
Clean and dry compressed gas must be connected. (For example, use a pneumatic triplex to filter, reduce pressure and add oil to the gas to ensure the normal operation of the pneumatic actuator and prevent malfunctions due to impurities, excessive air pressure or lack of oil.)
Use shielded cables to avoid interference.
Confirm the tightness of the coupling.
When the punching module of Wuxing tool holder is working, the belt rotates clockwise.
