Ces dispositifs de pli d'équerre comportent une table de pliage, des rouleaux de pliage et une lame de pliage. La lame de pliage est utilisée pour pousser les produits plats à travers une fente ménagée dans la table dans un interstice formé par les rouleaux. Le dispositif de pli d'équerre est muni de courroies d'acheminement du produit plat afin de l'acheminer sur la table de pliage.These square fold devices include a folding table, folding rolls and a folding blade. The folding blade is used to push the flat products through a slot in the table in a gap formed by the rollers. The square bend device is provided with flat product conveyor belts for routing on the bending table.
Lors du pliage, les courroies d'acheminement sont entraînées par le produit à plier dans une direction transversale à leur direction d'acheminement. En conséquence, les courroies se chevauchent transversalement et créent des bourrages.During folding, the conveyor belts are driven by the product to be folded in a direction transverse to their direction of conveyance. As a result, the belts overlap transversely and create jams.
Le temps de disponibilité des dispositifs de pli d'équerre connus est donc faible.The availability time of the known angle fold devices is therefore low.
