  • Page 9: Product Description

    Product description Components Heating presses are electrical heating devices for use in fabricating (splicing) belting material that can withstand maximum temperatures of 210°C. Heating presses are used to splice endlessly belting material using pressure and temperature. Depending on the requirement we differentiate between different designs and types.

  • Page 13: Preparing The Product For Usage

    Preparing the product for usage Before starting the operation of the tool, the following steps must be carried out each time to ensure that the tool works properly. Check the following points: Transport The transport / the relocation / the use of the device should be carried out by an appropriate lifting appliance (regarding the minimum lifting force, please look at chapter “3.3 Technical data“).

  • Page 14: Control And Limitation Of Temperature

    Pressure generation and control The heating press is equipped with an integrated pneumatic system for generating and controlling pressure. The pressure hose is filled at the beginning of heating process by pushing the “start-button” and is discharged again at the end of heating process. The air pressure level can be read from the display of the pressure controller.

  • Page 15: Air Cooling System

    Air cooling system The heating plates together with the belting material are cooled down with air. For this purpose some ventilators located at the bottom part of the heating press are blowing cooling air over the heating plates following to the preheating and holding-down processes in order to cool down the press.

  • Page 16: Handling

    Handling General Heating presses are electrical heating devices for use in fabricating (splicing) belting material that can withstand maximum temperatures of 210°C. Note: When making melting splices always observe the splicing instructions for the belt type to be spliced. Attention Before every heating process check the heating press for signs of damage.

    Note: The compress air supply gets automatically regulated by an integrated compressor. The permissible air pressure of 2 bar is factory adjusted and may be changed to a max- imum of 2,5 bar in exceptional cases! During the heating process the pressing power can in- crease owing to the thermal expansion of the air.
