GENERAL
NORMAL FAILURES
• Originated by a single element (e.g.: broken spindle)
• Easy to diagnose
• Direct fixing by repair/substitution of parts
THRESHOLD FAILURES
• Multiple origins (e.g: Bias clip)
• Effects only seen after a certain “threshold” is passed
• Difficult to diagnose
• Multiple actions required to fix the problem

M E
THRESHOLD ISSUES - EXAMPLE
BIAS CLIP
• Symptoms: Veneer sheets are not perfect rectangles but
parallelograms.
• Possible causes
A. Spindles with different response times (1 ms ~ 0.1 in @ 500 FPM)
B. Outer in-feed belts with different speeds in both sides. Worn belt is a
typical cause.
C. Hold down belts with different gap in each side. Incorrect hold down
alignment.

Solution: Multiple actions may be required.
