7. Installation
For boxes which are fully packed with
products that support the top fl aps,
adjustment of this regulator is not
critical since the boxes can support
pressure of upper frame at a wide
range of regulator settings.
However, if under-fi lled or fragile
boxes are to be sealed, this regulator
can be used to set the upper frame to
a higher pressure that is adequate for
conveying boxes through the machine
while also allowing upper assembly to
descend on box (preventing box damage).
Note – A precision regulator is used
to balance upper drive assembly.
Due to the self relieving feature of
this regulator a small amount of air
will continually vent to atmosphere.
This is normal and amounts to
approximately 3 liter/min [0.1 SCFM ].
8. Main Air Pressure Gauge -
Indicates main air regulator
pressure setting. Air regulator
should be adjusted so gauge reads
6.2 bar gauge pressure [90 PSIG].
9. Mechanical Latch, Upper Drive
Assembly (Figure 7-17)
Both columns have a mechanical latch
to hold the upper drive assembly at the
fully raised position for tape threading
and maintenance.
To raise and latch upper assembly:
1. Push and hold upper frame raising
switch "A".
2. Push and hold latching knob(s) "B".
3. Release switch "A".
4. Release knob(s) "B".
5. Shut off air supply.
To release/lower the upper assembly:
1. Turn on air supply.
2. Push and release switch "A".
10. Upper Drive Pressure Gauge
As indicated in Air Pressure Regulator /
Gauge, Upper Drive Counter Balance Force
Adjustment, Upper Drive Pressure Gauge
is used as indicator of "counter balance
force" that equalizes air pressure on the
Column Cylinders and keeps Upper
Assembly from dropping too quickly from
raised position. Adjust force higher (+)/
Lower (-) to equalize and create balance.

Important – Before turning drive belts on,
be sure no tools/objects are on
the conveyor bed.
11. Electrical Circuit Breaker/Fuse Box -
Houses DC Power Supply for Circuit Breaker,
Fuse Box, Proximity Sensor, Machine and
Tam (Option) Photo Sensors, Control Relays,
Motor(s) Contactor, and Programmable
Logic Controller (PLC) for Machine Control
Functions.
12. Box Centering Width Adjustment -
This knob limits the Side Guides from fully
opening to more effi ciently accomodate
the width of box to be sealed. By limiting
the Side Guides, the user is able to increase
speed of the taping process. It is especially
effi cient if narrower boxes are being sealed.
Turning the adjustment knob Clockwise (CW)
limits the "maximum opening width" and
turning the knob Counter Clockwise (CCW)
increases the "opening width".
Warning
• To reduce the risk associated with
pinch and entanglement hazards:
- Keep hands clear of the upper head
support assembly as boxes are
transported through the machine.
- Keep hands, hair, loose clothing, and
jewelry away from box compression
rollers and all moving parts.
- Always feed boxes into the machine
by pushing only from the end of box.
