You may choose to have your power cord hard-wired into your Power Supply. It is recommended that your electrician use a Junction Box with an ON/OFF switch. The Miller Weldmaster T300 requires one of the following electrical requirements: •25 Amp - Single phase - 230 Volts...
Instruction Manual Principals of Heat Sealing Heat Hot Air Heating System The Heat required for the welding operation is created electrically by one heating element located inside the Heat Element Housing. The Internal Air Compressor pumps air over the heat element and carries the heat through the Hot Air Nozzle, applying the heat to the material to be welded.
Instruction Manual Definition of Controls Main Screen - HMI Operation Recipe Number: This is a particular combination of the parameters of heat and speed used to weld different types of fabric. This shows which recipe you’re currently using on the machine. 0 - 24 Available recipe settings.

Instruction Manual Definition of Controls Delay Settings: These are used to eliminate voids in seam. Drive Start Delay Time: Once the foot pedal is depressed, the Drive Start Delay Time will delay the weld rollers from turning until the set point is reached.
Page 10
Instruction Manual Definition of Controls Hi-Temp Limit: maximum heating temperature of the machine. Once the actual temperature is out of this limit, the machine will stop heating automatically. Over-Temp Alarm: when the actual temperature is higher than the Over-Temp Alarm Temperature, there is an on-screen alarm that notifies the operator.
Instruction Manual Recommended Replacement Parts Miller Weldmaster recommends keeping the following spare parts in stock: NOTE: The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damage or injuries occurring from any inappropriate use of this machine.

Instruction Manual Machine Specifications Mechanical Section •Removable Roller Table Top: The roller table top assembly is used for paneling applications, edging, edge finishing, and general seaming applications. •Swing Arm: The swing arm is used when products include shapes, curves, and tubes of the seaming area. Heat Source •Hot Air: heat element housing contains the heating element and thermal-couple.

Instruction Manual Machine Specifications Pneumatic System •Pressure Adjustment Regulator: Filters out water and dirt in the air. The Pressure Adjusting regulator, regulates the pressure to the machine. Increase the pressure by rotating clock- wise, and decrease the value by rotating counter-clockwise. •Solenoid Valve: Controls the actions of the Air Cylinders.
Instruction Manual Maintenance Warning! The operator must disconnect the power from the machine before proceeding. 1. Loosen and remove the protective cover from the element housing. 2. Unpack the fiberglass insulation around the front of the element housing. Be cautious to avoid eye contact when handling the insulation.

Maintenance Cleaning/Replacing Air Filter (For Hot Air Machines Only) The Miller Weldmaster T300 has an external air compressor that supplies airflow to the heat element. Periodic cleaning and changing of the Air Filter Cartridge is necessary to maintain sufficient airflow. Insufficient airflow or any impurities in the airflow will shorten the life of the heat element.

Instruction Manual Maintenance Hot Air Heat System Adjustments Begin by turning your hot air on and setting to the desired temperature. Set weld rollers to the closed position by engaging the Weld Roller Pedal. 1. Left to right nozzle position, check this by engaging the Drive Foot Pedal and watch the tip of the nozzle.

Instruction Manual Maintenance Puller Adjustments 1. With the table assembly in place, adjust the height of the material puller by using the steel collar and lock nut to achieve the desired height of the material puller. 2. For most applications the material puller wheel should first be adjusted until it is slightly touching the stainless steel roller.

Instruction Manual Maintenance Hot Wedge Heat System Adjustments A note before beginning; the wedge should be a bit loose (3/16 inch of play). Begin by setting the Master Speed to zero and closing the weld rollers. First Alignment Step When the wedge arm swings in and drives forward, it is imperative that the point of the Alignment Pin fits into the Recess of the wedge arm.

Instruction Manual Maintenance Hot Wedge Heat System Adjustments (Continued) Fifth Alignment Step The last step involves the wedge depth. Check this adjustment by engaging the Drive Foot Pedal to check the contact between the wedge and the weld rollers. Not enough contact, and the wedge will barley touch the rollers.

Instruction Manual Maintenance Replace Battery When replacing the PLC battery it is important to have the machine POWER ON during the entire procedure to ensure there is no memory loss. 1. Remove access cover from PLC. 2. Remove battery cover 3.
Transporting Within a Production Facility Due to the weight of the Miller Weldmaster machine, the manufacturer requires a forklift or tow motor to be used. The forks are to be inserted below the bottom frame along the center of gravity.
Instruction Manual 10.0 Technical Requirements Technical Requirements 1. Total air pressure should be 120 psi (8.3 bar). 2. The pressure of the Upper Unit Weld Wheel should be between 5 psi and 60 psi (.3 bar and 4.1 bar). 3. The lifting of the Upper Weld Roller must be smooth and free, without obvious vibration.
