Possible Cause
Backing Wheel is touching Tension Wheel.
Excess material from previous operation
did not fully eject.
Loose motor shaft collar.
Tension Wheel slipping.
Loss of air pressure to Clamp cylinder (<80
PSI).
Drive-train failure.
Clamp tail pinched off at tension wheel
due to high pinch force on backing wheel.
Tension setting too high for
clamp/application.
Backing wheel pin un-lubricated.
Loss of air pressure to cut-off cylinder
(<70 PSI).
Excessively worn or damaged knife or tool
head.
Solution
Verify the return cycle of the clamp cylinder is
unimpeded and clamp cylinder is fully retracted.
Clean tension and backing wheels with wire
brush.
Verify the tension wheel rotates enough to
remove scrap tail by hand.
Ensure set screw between motor and gearbox is
tight. Check for foreign object present or other
obstructions.
Inspect clamp tail for evidence of slipping. Clean
Tension and Backing Wheels with wire brush. If
slipping persists, replace Tension and/or Backing
Wheel.
Verify that air source and fittings are pressurized,
unobstructed, and not leaking.
Contact BAND-IT.
Verify air pressure to Clamp Cylinder does not
exceed 80 PSI.
Ensure tension setting (motor torque) is correct
for clamp type and application.
Lubricate.
Verify that incoming air pressure meets minimum
requirements. Check for leaks or obstructions.
Replace knife or head.
