8-THEORY OF OPERATION

8.1 Description of the Working Cycle
After having closed the top fl aps of the carton, the
operator pushes it under the top infeed end in order
to avoid the opening of the top fl aps. Further push-
ing causes the two top and bottom belts to drive the
box through the taping heads which automatically
seal the top and bottom seams. The carton is then
expelled on the exit conveyor.
8.2 Defi nition of Running Mode
The case sealer 700rks-NA has only one (automatic)
operating mode with:
- The EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON unlocked
(Figure 8-1)
- The main start switch "ON"
(Figure 8-2)

When the main switch is turned OFF, the machine
stops immediately at any point of the working cycle.

ure or when the machine is disconnected from the
mains.
