Method and Device for Calibrating Seam Cutters and Blade-Carrier Heads

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and to a device, wherein a first blade-carrier head (13) is rigidly secured in an axial direction and counter to rotation to an axially fixed blade shaft (2), a second blade-carrier head (14) is arranged on an axially displaceable, play-free blade shaft (3) which is connected to the axially fixed blade shaft (2) by a drive connection such that the blade-carrier heads (13, 14) are disposed in an aligned manner on a plane enabling the blade gap adjusting device (4) to be displaced to a zero position from the blade shaft (3) which can be axially displaced in only one direction. The second blade-carrier head (14) is adjusted by rotating on the blade shaft (3) in such a manner that both of the blade-carrier heads (13, 14) form a gap which is equal to zero and that the second blade-carrier head (14) is axially secured to the blade shaft (3), in said position, and counter to rotation.
