Measuring the positions of creasing tools оn inliner machines

Applying the formula

Examine the following 1up drawing and then the examples below to learn how to apply the formula. Note the indicated distances and how the formulas extract them.

Applying the formulas

OFFSETS TO SHEET

CROSS FLUTE

$OneUp1.ToolOffsetList(Creasing; true; true; 90+fd(); epsa(); mm; n-2" – ")$ = 105 – 200 – 150 – 125 – 40

DISTANCES SHOWN:

• From the sheet's left end to the first crease line (105). Calculated by combining (1) the distance from the sheet's leftmost edge and the leftmost cut line (5) and (2) the distance between the leftmost cut line and the leftmost crease line (100).
• Between the leftmost cut line and second cut lines (200).
• Between the second and the third cut lines (150).
• Between the third cut line and the rightmost crease line (125).
• Between the rightmost crease line and the rightmost cut line (40).

ALONG FLUTE

$OneUp1.ToolOffsetList(Creasing; true; true; 180-fd(); epsa(); mm; n-2" – ")$ = 40 – 120 – 75

DISTANCES SHOWN:

• The sheet's lower end to the lower crease line (40). Calculated by combining (1) the distance from the sheet lower end to the lower cut line (10) and (2) the distance between the lower cut line and the lower crease line (30).
• The lower crease line to the upper crease line (120).
• The upper crease line and the sheet's upper end (75).

Offsets to bounding rectangle

CROSS FLUTE

$OneUp1.ToolOffsetList(Creasing; true; false; 90+fd(); epsa(); mm; n-2" – ")$ = 100 – 200 – 150 – 125 – 25

DISTANCES SHOWN:

• The leftmost cut line and the leftmost crease line (100).
• The leftmost crease line and the second crease line (200).
• The second crease line and the third crease line (150).
• The third crease line and the rightmost crease line (125).
• The rightmost crease line and the rightmost cut line (25).

ALONG FLUTE

$OneUp1.ToolOffsetList(Creasing; false; false; 180-fd(); epsa(); ; n0 " – ")$ = 30 – 120 – 50

DISTANCES SHOWN:

• The lower cut line and the lower crease line (30).
• The lower crease line and the upper crease line (120).
• The upper crease line and the upper cut line (50).

ALONG FLUTE (TAP)

$OneUp1.ToolOffsetList(Creasing; false; false; 180+fd(); epsa(); mm; n-2 " – ")$ = 30 – 120

DISTANCES SHOWN:

• The lower cut line and the lower crease line (30).
• The lower and upper crease lines (120).

CREASE LINE POSITION TO SHEET

CROSS FLUTE

$OneUp1.ToolPosList(Creasing; true; true; 90+fd(); epsa(); mm; n-2 " – ")$ = 105 – 305 – 455 – 580 – 620

DISTANCES SHOWN:

• The leftmost crease line (105).
• The second crease line (305).
• The third crease line (455).
• The rightmost crease line (580).
• The rightmost cut line (620).

ALONG FLUTE

$OneUp1.ToolPosList(Creasing; true; true; 180-fd(); epsa(); mm; n-2 " – ")$ = 40 – 160 – 235

DISTANCES SHOWN:

• The lower crease line (40).
• The upper crease line (160).
• The sheet's upper end (235).
