Bag Open Detector; Tiz Rap / Accumulator; Accumulating Funnel - Advanced Poly-Packaging Advanced Poly-Bagger T-1000-S18H Operation Manual

3.18 BO-20 Bag Open Detector
This photo optic, closed contact sensor detects the opening
or presence of bag material. This option will detect whether
or not a bag is blown open or whether or not a funnel is
inserted into the bag for validation that the bag is ready to
receive product. The Bag Open Detector is valuable for an
automatic operation to decrease the chance of product falling
on the floor. To turn this option on, toggle the ON / OFF
button to ON. See Figure 3 - 19
The Bag Open Detector screen features two LEDs:
• Blocked: Illuminates when the sensor detects a
blockage.
• Latched: Illuminates to indicate the sensor detected the bagger is latched.
Detect Time: The time allotted for the sensor to detect the bag before stopping the machine.
Min Time: The minimum amount of time, in seconds, the sensor has to detect the bag. A message will be
displayed if the bag fails to open

3.19 TIZ RAP / Accumulator

This hang-behind printer option is equipped with a festoon to collect bags that have already been printed on as
they wait to go through the bagger. If this option is included on your machine, please refer to the Ti-1000Z / Ti-
1000RAP / T-1000-S14NBO Printer Manual for more details.
3.20 AF-10 Accumulating Funnel
This special purpose funnel has several functions: 1) to
accumulate a product before dropping the full contents of the
Accumulator into the bag, 2) to contain a product while the
equipment is sealing, 3) to insert the funnel into the bag and
keep the product away from the sealing portion of the bag,
and 4) to physically open the bag with a gate that enters into
the bag while the product exits the funnel. See Figure 3 - 20
and Figure 3 - 21.
The funnel can be operated in an "Open Accumulator" mode
or a "Closed Accumulator" mode. In an Open Accumulator
mode, the door is closed only during the sealing operation.
The door opens when the bag is in position and will remain
open until the bag has been filled. The door will then close
only until the next bag is in position.
In the Closed Accumulator mode, the door remains closed
until the full batch is in the funnel. Then the funnel door will
open until all product drops from the funnel.
Settings are provided to delay opening or maintain the
opening until product has passed through.
