Adjust the lower contour rollers up, clockwise, until the wedge begins to move up slightly. Now insert the other 4” x 18” piece of material between upper contour assembly and wedge (figure 4). Adjust the upper contour rollers down, clockwise, to obtain the desired tolerance. 7/20 Ausgabe 01.2017/Rev.00 MUNSCH Kunststoff-Schweißtechnik GmbH... -
Page 8: Suggested Set-Up For Hdpe Material
NOTE: Distances #1, 2 & 3 should be the same for the HDPE set-up. For PVC set-up, distance #2 & 3 should be approximately ½ the distance of #1 and contour roller adjustments should be backed off completely or removed. MUNSCH Kunststoff-Schweißtechnik GmbH Ausgabe 01.2017/Rev.00... -
Page 9: Basic Welding Operation
NOTE: Once the bottom sheet of material has been loaded, you may need to manually roll the welder forward and backward as you are loading the top sheet to prevent a “burn out” at the beginning of the weld. 9/20 Ausgabe 01.2017/Rev.00 MUNSCH Kunststoff-Schweißtechnik GmbH... -
Page 10: Executing A Weld
1. Disengage the welding pressure 2. Turn the motor switch off 3. Disengage the wedge REMEMBER: Always engage the wedge LAST when starting a weld and disengage the wedge LAST at the end of the weld. MUNSCH Kunststoff-Schweißtechnik GmbH Ausgabe 01.2017/Rev.00 10/20... -
Page 11: Welding Parameters - Hdpe And Lldpe
As ambient conditions and other variables change (i.e. dirt, moisture, etc.), the welding parameters must be adjusted by the field technician or by the operator. MUNSCH Kunststoff-Schweißtechnik GmbH assumes no liability for weld quality or lack thereof, when using a Wedge-It Hot Wedge Welder. -
Page 12: Maintenance
More involved maintenance practices should be performed on a daily or weekly basis, depending on how much welding you are doing. Part 1 of this section will explain how to accomplish these tasks. MUNSCH Kunststoff-Schweißtechnik GmbH Ausgabe 01.2017/Rev.00 12/20... -
Page 13: Lubricating Gears, Sprockets And Chains
Wipe with a clean rag, or preferably, blow dry with compressed air. Make sure all components are clear of dirt and sand, etc. Lightly lubricate all gears, sprockets and chains. NOTE: MUNSCH Kunststoff-Schweißtechnik GmbH recommends using spray on white lithium grease which is available at any hardware store or auto parts store. - Page 14 33. Nip arm 34. Nip arm spring 35.
