A sentence, especially "inch"
English to Chinese
Tech/Engineering
Mechanics / Mech Engineering
Coil Processing
The sentence:
The side-to-side locations of the material guides are backed away from the material approximately 3/4 of an **inch** on setup
Context:
(2) Coil Breaker Feed Table Guide Adjustment
When operating in the TENSION mode, the side-to-side traversing of the Uncoiler controls the tracking of the material as it enters the processing line. The side-to-side locations of the material guides are backed away from the material approximately 3/4 of an inch on setup. If the material does not track in the center of the guides, the operator must reposition the Uncoiler with the Uncoiler Traverse (Out/In) switch.
Coil machining/processing. I am confused about this sentence, especially the meaning of "an inch" here. 英寸？线材尺寸？送料行迹幅度？ Any idea would be welcome. TiA!

3/4 of an inch = 3/4"
意思就是 material guides 的位置离材料约 3/4 英寸。

此处的guides 应该是指一些导向装置，例如导轮、导辊等，视上下文而定。看来它们分布在材料两侧。大致意思是，在设定时，两侧导向装置应距离材料约3/4英寸。材料前进的轨迹应处于这些导向装置的中心线上。如果材料前进的轨迹偏离这些导向装置的中心线，那就需要调整Uncoiler的位置。Side-to-side 是指横向，材料前进的轨迹是纵向。

Yes, "away from" is very commonly used in both American English and British English, e.g., "away from home". "Backed away” means “moved backwards” so as to allow some spaces.

Note from asker:
| Thank you, but why "backed away from"? Is it normal in American English to be "away from"? |
