Operation
To put your
Turn on the auto switch. This will cause the vacuum arm to pull a label from the hopper and move it into position until the operator depresses the foot pedal, sealing the label onto the garment. The pedal must be held down until the press cycles out and the seal is completed. As the press starts to rise from the garment, the foot pedal can be released, which resets the vacuum arm to feed another label. In doing this, the machine automatically feeds another label while the operator is removing the garment and inserting another.
When the label has been fed into position for sealing, it is important that the label is totally under the electrode so that the pressure is exerted on the adhesive coated label.
The position of the vacuum arm is always the same and so to change the position of the label relative to the electrode, you must change the position where the hopper places the label on the vacuum arm. To move the label left or right, the hopper is moved by loosening the lower hopper bracket, shifting the hopper in the direction desired, then tightening the bracket in position.
Setting the Controls
Heat dwell time, and pressure are the basic fundamentals that determine the results obtainable on a thermoplastic sealing application. It is impossible with the variety of fabric material and constructions, as well as design of garments, to establish any one setting that will give you the most desirable results under all circumstance, but settings will be suggested upon request and submission of an application.
1)Set the heat electrode (Top platen) and base plate (Bottom platen) to the desired temperature (See heat control section).
2)Turn auto switch to the on position
3)Set dwell time recommended by the transfer manufacturer
