PROBLEM
"A" Model Specific Issues
Film Clamp Not Operating
Properly. (Opening And Closing
Inconsistently)
Table 4-1. Troubleshooting Chart (Continued)
POSSIBLE CAUSE
Clamp close delay timer at the
touchscreen is incorrect for the
application.
Air pressure to the machine is too
low.
Air cylinder flow controls are set
incorrectly.
Air lines are pinched or
obstructed.
Debris or condensation is in the
air lines.
Break in the wiring to the clamp
solenoid.
Clamp solenoids are defective
Dual air passage is leaking.
CTS Flex Stretchwrapper
SOLUTION
Look for the clamp to close smoothly, but
at the wrong time.
Observe the factory preset value on the
settings screen. Re-adjust the clamp close
delay timer as needed.
Observe the pressure gauge at the pressure
regulator behind the lower rear access
panel.
Air supply to the machine should be 80
PSI @ 3CFM.
If the regulator shows correct pressure, the
flow controls are suspect.
Check the flow controls by manually acti-
vating the clamp jog function on the
touchscreen. Adjust the flow controls on
the clamp cylinders so that they operate
smoothly.
observe all 1/4 inch polyflow tubing.
Remove any obstruction. Correct any
pinched lines.
Purge the air filter / regulator.
If water appears, then condensation is in
the air lines. Correct the water issue, then
purge the air lines by manually jogging
the clamp until no water remains.
There is DC voltage at the clamp PLC out-
put, but no voltage at the clamp solenoids.
Locate and repair break in the signal wir-
ing between the PLC and solenoids.
There is DC voltage at the clamp sole-
noids but the solenoids do not activate.
Replace the clamp solenoids.
Rotate the table manually with a load
positioned on the table. Listen for any air
leaks as the table rotates.
If leakage is suspect, replace dual air pas-
sage.
