Hi there! I am currently working on a die cut machine as well. It seems that the clutch is slow to engage the flywheel. It takes about 40 seconds to engage it. We have checked the mechanical systems and every thing seems to be work well. Would like your thoughts on this. Thanks in advance!
Check the clutch mechanism for broken engagement levers, also make sure the clutch packs are cleaned with degreaser so they don't slip. If the clutch packs are oily and/or worn and slipping and you tighten the adjustment too much, the engagement levers will break and you'll end up with even less clamping force to engage the clutch packs. If you have this exact machine, I have drawings and DXF files somewhere here to get replacement levers made.
The CNC'd disk was made from a standard kitchen cutting board, so almost certainly polyethylene. Hard wearing, chemical resistant and somewhat self lubricating so should work well in this application.
@@NearFarMedia Bigger ones with a flat plate are also around, used with a swing base that holds the material and a sacrificial backing board, and then the arm is swung under the big head with the cutting pattern in it, which then is pulled down by a connecting rod on a crankshaft to punch either through or to make score lines. Common to cut heavy rubber and leather to make shoes. Yes these machines have no brains, the operators must remember to use theirs, like a lot of old industrial machinery, and even a lot of brand new ones. 20 tons of pressure means you lose parts.
There are two other die cutters besides the three like in the video in this factory (5 machines) too, they look like printing presses, and they diecut thinner plastic fully automatically. They are great for large amounts of thinner plastic but they don't have the oomph of these old flywheel-driven machines for the thicker stuff. Sometimes you just need brute force to get the job done. :)

Top effort from the both of you and great to see you out of your workshop and doing some field work like a real tradie :P haha
Gotta get our hands dirty every now and then. :D
Good job repair machine myfreind 👍
love the video!
Hi, love your video. Btw do you have any idea what is the calibration tools needed for this machine?
what is the main problem of die cut about was over voltage error ?
What brand clamshell press is that? And are both the same?

How I change its side arm bush
What material did you CNC the disc out of? It also looks like a PET. Nice repair 👍

NFM But the 3d printed prototype was also PET? Not as thick, perhaps?
I am new in work shop you tell me or share with me it's assambling process I she'll be thank full to you
What does it cut dies for?. I could not understand cut action with plywood template
The plywood template is the die that is used to cut sheets of plastic into shapes, such as for folding into boxes for product packaging etc.

This machine doesn't need calibration as such. Just normal maintenance and adjustment with mechanics hand tools.
