The number of Dots across the line is determined by the size of the shutters:
- For 50 mm (2”) shutters there will be 25 mm (1”) space between the centers of the dots.
- For 60 mm (2.4”) shutters there will be 30 mm (1.2”) space between the centers of the dots.
- For shutters with a width of 70, 80 and 90 mm (2.8”, 3.1” and 3.5”) the distance between the holes will be determined together with the customer.
The number of Dots across the line is determined by the size of the shutters:
- Holes ø12 mm (0.5”) in the drum give DOT diameter of 18 to 25 mm (0.7” to 1”). Ø12 mm (0.5”) holes are chosen when marking with Dots on baseline shall be made.
- Holes ø15 mm (0.6”) in the drum give DOT diameter of 25 to 30 mm (1” to 1.2”).
- Holes ø18 mm (0.7”) in the drum give DOT diameter of 30 to 35 mm (1.2” to 1.4”).
- Holes ø22 mm (0.9”) in the drum give DOT diameter of 35 to 45 mm (1.4” to 1.8”).
