Hi,
I have a New-Hermes IRX-III engraveograph, not sure if anyone here is familiar with these or could point me in the right direction.
I am giving it to the local school's shop class for the students to use. I need some information on the proper setting of the adjustments.
There are three sliding scales on the pantograph, I have figured out that the two scales on the swing arms represent the size ratio and (I assume) should be set the same.
I can't figure out the correct use of the rack and pinion slide and scale at the back. It obviously moves the entire pantograph arm fore and aft, but there must be some formula or chart to arrive at the correct setting to keep everything centered and lined up?
Sorry for the long winded post.
Thanks,
Mark
