4.0 Principals of Heat Sealing

Heat

Hot Air Heating System
The Heat required for the welding operation is created electrically by one heating element located inside the Heat Element Housing. The Internal Air Compressor pumps air over the heat element and carries the heat through the Hot Air Nozzle, applying the heat to the material to be welded. The hot air temperature ranges from 25 to 730 Degrees Celsius (100 to 1350 Degrees Fahrenheit).

Hot Wedge Heating System

The Hot Wedge heat system uses four cartridge heat elements to electrically heat the Wedge. The Hot Wedge temperature ranges from 25 to 490 Degrees Celsius (100 to 915 Degrees Fahr- enheit).

Speed

The Speed of the Weld Rollers determines the amount of time the heat is applied to the material being welded. The slower the speed setting, the more the material will be heated. The faster the speed setting, the less the material will be heated. To achieve the best weld, a minimal amount of heat should be applied to the material while still achieving a full weld. Too much heat will cause distortion of the material; while not enough heat will prevent the material from welding.

Pressure

The pressure of the weld roller is the final step when creating a weld. The pressure of the weld roller compresses the heated material together completing the welding process.

Summary

When heat sealing, the correct combination of heat, speed, and pressure will allow you to achieve a properly welded seam.

6. Remove both bolts from the rear mounting bracket and remove the wedge assembly.

7. Install the new wedge assembly reversing the above instructions. When tightening the bolts to the rear of the wedge, loosen by a 1/8 of a turn so the wedge has some “float” to it.

Hot Air Heat System Adjustments

Begin by turning your hot air on and setting to the desired temperature. Set weld rollers to the closed position by engaging the Weld Roller Pedal.

  1. Left to right nozzle position, check this by engaging the Drive Foot Pedal and watch the tip of the nozzle. It should be centered left to right on the weld rollers, if so, move on to next alignment step. If not, locate the left to right Lockdown Knob and loosen by two turns. This will allow adjustment of the left to right Micrometer. Now locate the left to right Micrometer which is located about eye level with the operator. Rotating the left to right Micrometer Knob so the numeric value is increasing will move the nozzle tip to the left. Rotating the left to right Micrometer Knob so the numeric value is decreasing will move the nozzle tip to the right. After the nozzle is centered on the weld rollers, tighten down the left to right Lockdown Knob.
  2. Up and down nozzle position, check this by engaging the Drive Foot Pedal and watch the tip of nozzle. It should be pointing at the pinch point of the two weld rollers, if so move on to next alignment step. If not locate the Height Lockdown Knob and loosen by two turns. This will allow us to adjust the Height Micrometer Knob. The Height Micrometer Knob is located at the bottom of the heat system pointing downward. Rotating the Height Micrometer Knob so the numeric value is increasing will raise the nozzle tip. Rotating the Height Micrometer Knob so the numeric value is decreasing will lower the nozzle tip. After the nozzle is aligned, tighten down the Height Lockdown Knob.
    Note: Nozzle tip will move up or down when heat is changed. After a heat change of more than 100 degrees, be sure to check height of nozzle tip.
  3. Depth of your nozzle should be at approximately ¼ - ½ of an inch from the pinch point of your weld rollers. Check this by engaging the Drive Foot Pedal and watch the tip of nozzle. If the nozzle is aligned, perform a test weld. If not locate the Depth Lockdown Knob and loosen by two turns. This will allow us to adjust the Depth Micrometer Knob. The Depth Micrometer Knob is located on the back of the heat system facing the direction of fabric flow. Rotating the Depth Micrometer Knob so the numeric value is increasing will move the nozzle tip closer to the weld rollers. Rotating the Depth Micrometer Knob so the numeric value is decreasing will move the nozzle tip away from the weld rollers. After nozzle is aligned, tighten down the Depth Micrometer Knob. When the nozzle is aligned, perform a test weld.

Puller Adjustments

  1. With the table assembly in place, adjust the height of the material puller by using the steel collar and lock nut to achieve the desired height of the material puller.
  2. For most applications the material puller wheel should first be adjusted until it is slightly touching the stainless steel roller.
  3. Next adjust the puller wheel slightly lower by turning the adjusting collar one half turn counterclockwise. This will ensure full contact of the mating surfaces.

Installing/Removing/Adjusting Table Assembly

  1. Begin by loosening the two black knobs to the right of the operator (removal of these knobs is not necessary).
  2. Next go around to the puller side of the machine. Just beneath the material puller there will be two black knobs similar to the fasteners previously loosened. Remove these knobs while supporting the weight of the table assembly.
  3. Lastly, lift up and pull the table assembly out of the throat of the machine through the backside (puller side).

Hot Wedge Heat System Adjustments

A note before beginning; the wedge should be a bit loose (3/16 inch of play). Begin by setting the Master Speed to zero and closing the weld rollers.

First Alignment Step

When the wedge arm swings in and drives forward, it is imperative that the point of the Alignment Pin fits into the Recess of the wedge arm. Check this by engaging the Drive Foot Pedal. If this is OK, move on to the second alignment step. If not, locate the Centric Adjustment Knob on top of the wedge arm. By loosening the Centric Adjustment Knob, you will be able to rotate the Knurled Shaft by ¼ turns until the Alignment Pin fits into the Recess. Tighten the Centric Adjustment Knob when proper alignment is achieved.

Second Alignment Step

The tip of the wedge must be the same height as the pinch point of the weld rollers. Check this by engaging the Drive Foot Pedal and watching the tip of the wedge. It should drive straight to the pinch point of the weld rollers without touching the top or bottom weld roller first. At the same time, the tilt of the wedge needs checked. Ensure that the left tip is not placed higher or lower than the right tip. You must inspect this by getting eye level with the weld rollers. If these are OK, move on to the third alignment step. If not, locate the Height Lockdown knob and loosen by two turns. This will allow adjustment of the Height Micrometer Knob. Rotating the Height Micrometer Knob so the numeric value is increasing, will raise the wedge. Rotating the Height Micrometer Knob so the numeric value is decreasing will lower the wedge. Adjusting the tilt requires a combination of loosening and tightening the Left Tilt Knob and the Right Tilt Knob. After the wedge tip height and tilt is aligned, tighten down the Height Lockdown Knob.

Third Alignment Step

The tip of the wedge must be aligned left to right, and centered on the rollers. Check this by engaging the Drive Foot Pedal and watching to see if the tip is centered on the rollers after it drives forward. If this is alright, move on to the Fourth Alignment Step. If not, locate the Left/Right Lockdown Knob and loosen by two turns. This will allow the adjustment of the Left/Right Micrometer Knob. Rotate to decrease the numeric value on the Left/Right Micrometer Knob will move the wedge to the right. Rotate to increase the numeric value on the Left/Right Micrometer Knob will move the wedge to the left. After the wedge tip is aligned left to right with the weld rollers, tighten down the Left/Right Lockdown Knob.

Fourth Alignment Step

The tip of the wedge must be squared to the weld rollers. Check this by engaging Drive Foot Pedal and looking over the top face of the wedge. See that the wedge squares evenly with the weld rollers. If this is aligned properly, move on to the Fifth Alignment Step. If not, slightly loosen the Wedge Mounting Bolts, very slightly rotate the entire heat system in the desired direction and retighten the Wedge Mounting Bolts. Check the wedge squareness again. Keep repeating until the Wedge is mounted square.

Fifth Alignment Step

The last step involves the wedge depth. Check this adjustment by engaging the Drive Foot Pedal to check the contact between the wedge and the weld rollers. Not enough contact, and the wedge will barley touch the rollers. This will cause there to be a lack of heat transfer through to the material. Too much contact, the wedge will come into contact with the rollers and the upper swing unit of the wedge will deflect. This will cause the wedge to be sucked in by the weld rollers during seaming. If aligned properly, turn the heat switch on and set up for a test weld. If not, locate the Depth Lockdown Knob and loosen by two turns. This will allow for the adjustment of the Depth Micrometer Knob. Rotating the Depth Micrometer Knob to increase the numeric value will move the wedge back away from the weld rollers. Rotating the Depth Micrometer Knob to decrease the numeric value will move the wedge towards the weld rollers. When aligned properly, tighten down the Depth Lockdown Knob. Turn the Heat Switch on and set up for a test weld.

Upper Weld Roller Speed Adjustments

The T300 has an Upper Weld Roller Speed adjustment that allows you to vary the synchronization of the upper weld roller to the lower weld roller. There will be situations that occur where the upper roller will need to rotate at a faster rate then the lower roller. Some examples would be; welding a hem, welding a pole pocket, and welding a straight piece to a radius piece. To increase the speed of the upper roller, follow these steps:

  1. Press the menu button in the Main Screen.
  2. Press the welding functions button in the Menu Screen.

To adjust the Upper Weld Roller Speed percentage, you can push the up or down arrows to increase or decrease the speed, or press the box with the percentage and a numeric key pad will appear. Select the numeric value desired.

Inboard Puller Adjustment

T600 Extreme fabric welder adjustment of the puller

  1. With the table assembly in place, adjust the height of the material puller by using the air cylinder shaft and lock nut. (Pictured).
  2. For most applications the material puller wheels should be adjusted until they are slightly touching the stainless steel roller.
  3. Be sure to adjust each side evenly. As adjusting one side will slightly affect the other side.
