    The knife motor on our DI Pro isn't working. Looking for a board.
    Anyone have one and can confirm the part number?

    At the risk of sounding like I do not know what I am talking about (But do)... What is the knife motor?

    The motor that operates the chain that holds the cutting blade. There is a ugly "chatter" noise when it's attempting to cut and then stops half way. I had someone from Heidelberg corp tell me that it is most likely the main board.

    And I thought that this was about the ink duct motor problem...

    I'm confused, you have a knife on a QMDI Pro? The only chains I know of in the press are the delivery chains and there are chains that drive the feeder.
