Installation and Set-Up (Continued)
8.Install case sealer in production line. When installing the case sealer, be sure to observe the following guidelines.
a.Case sealer must be installed level – it is not designed to convey boxes uphill.
b.Infeed conveyor must convey boxes to case sealer at a speed not to exceed 0.30 m/s [60 f/m].
c.Precautions must be taken to prevent excessive box pressure against the case sealer infeed gate. This will help to prevent damage to the boxes and ensure proper performance.
d.Infeed and exit conveyors must provide straight entrance and exit of boxes to/from case sealer and exit conveyor must positively convey boxes away from machine.
e.Refer to Figure
