An out of square cut can be caused by a number of factors.
- An improper squareness setting is one possible cause for the problems. Check the setting and readjust if necessary.
- A web that weaves as it feeds into the cutter will also contribute to squareness problems. If this is occurring, adjust the unwind stand for proper squareness and brake tension.
- An uneven take away pinch roll setting will also cause an out of square cut. To compensate, adjust the tape system pinch roll.
- Finally, check the doctor boards before the knife for any foreign material. Remove any material stuck to the doctor board.
