1.1 Introduction
Now that you've decided to upgrade your packaging facilities with the T-1000 Advanced Poly-Bagger from
Advanced Poly-Packaging, Inc., we thank you for selecting our equipment, materials and service. Where
labor reduction and fast changeover is important, the T-1000 uses Advanced Poly-Bags (pre-opened bags
on rolls), manufactured by Advanced Poly-Packaging, Inc. Extensively equipped with several "built-in",
ready-to-use options, the T-1000 can package various industrial, medical, molded and food products. With
a wide range of bag sizes (2" x 3" (standard frame only) to 14" x 30") and mil thickness (1 mil to 5 mil),
we hope the T-1000 will meet all of your bagging needs.
1.2 Overview
The T-1000 ADVANCED POLY-BAGGER™ is a system designed to lower your packaging costs with
high speeds, versatility, reliability, and simplicity.
High Speeds - Indexes, opens, seals and tears off a bag at very high rates. Actual packaging speed is
dependent on the bag size, equipment options, product characteristics and method of loading.
Versatility - Mobile on rugged castors for packaging at any production station throughout your facility.
Ideal for numerous short runs with virtually no production loss for job changeovers since all that is
required is a roll change and recalling the bag settings from memory.
Reliability - Crafted from the highest quality components and materials to withstand the most rigorous
manufacturing environment; sturdy mounts with castors, and rugged frame guarantee long life and
usefulness with minimal maintenance.
Simplicity - A "user-friendly" menu-driven touch screen program allows operators to setup the bag, options
and auxiliary equipment, save the settings in memory, and recall those settings for repeat runs.
1.3 Special Features
Energy Conservation & Component Saver - To extend its life and conserve energy in your plant, the T-
1000 is programmed to sequentially shut components down when not in use for extended periods. Electric
current to the heater bar will discontinue and place the T-1000 in the stop mode during a preset period of
nonuse. Shortly thereafter, air flow will be shut off preserving compressed air. A screen saver is also
provided.
Pass code Protection - As an option, setting screens can be protected from being altered by unauthorized
individuals. Once turned on, this function acts as a "screen save" feature whereas a timer causes the pass
code screen to be displayed, from the Operations Menu. Factory settings are protected by a level 1 pass
code and should only be provided to authorized maintenance personnel.
Predetermined Counter - Preset the T-1000 to stop after a predetermined number of bags have been
packaged. Set the quantity of finished bags to complete a work order or fill a shipping container. Once the
work order is complete or the container is full, the T-1000 stops to alert the operator to begin the next work
order or to push aside the box to begin filling another. Pressing anywhere on the screen resets the counter
and starts the bagging operation with minimum delay.
Totalizing Counter - Reset this counter at the beginning of each shift or day to record packaging
production over a period of time.
Maintenance Counter/Chart - Periodically check this counter (total machine cycles) to determine
preventative maintenance / component inspection intervals for inspection / maintenance criteria and
intervals.
