9Air Pressure Regulator, Upper Taping Head Frame Figure3-5

Set nominally to control "down" pressure against box. The factory set point is 15 PSIG [1 bar]. The regulator setting is adjusted as necessary to allow free movement of boxes through taping heads while maintaining boxes flaps in fully closed position. Decreasing air pressure will increase down pressure on boxes while increasing air pressure will decrease down force on boxes.

For boxes which are fully packed with products that support the top flaps, the adjustment of this regulator is not critical since the boxes can support the pressure of the upper frame at a wide range of regulator settings. However, if under-filled or fragile boxes are sealed, this regulator is used to set the upper frame at the minimum setting while still maintaining adequate closure of boxes.

The air regulator is adjusted by pulling out to adjust and pushing in to lock the setting as shown in Figure 3-5.

10Main Air Pressure Gauge

Indicates main air regulator pressure setting. Air regulator should be adjusted so gauge reads 6.5 bar gauge pressure [95 PSIG].

11Latching Knob, Upper Taping Head Frame –Figure 3-6

The mechanical latch is provided to hold the upper frame at the fully raised position for tape threading and maintenance.

Figure 3-6 – Latching Knob, Upper Taping Head Frame

To raise and latch the upper frame:

1.Push and hold the upper frame raising switch "A".

2.Push and hold latching knob "B".

3.Release switch "A".

4.Release knob "B".

5.Shut off air supply.

To release and lower the upper frame:

1.Turn on air supply.

2.Push and release switch "A".

WARNING – Do not put hands beneath upper taping head frame

when upper frame lowers to its rest position. Severe personal injury could result.

12Indicator, Air Pressure

An "Optical" Warning Indicator for the compressed air circuit of the machine is located on the upper taping head frame just behind the red "Stop" button. When indicator is "Red", air circuit is on.

13Box Exit Cams

These cams, when tripped by exiting box, signal drive belts to return to their fully open (rest) position.
