3.6 HEAT-SHRINKING FILM CHARACTERISTICSThe machine has been designed to obtain the packaging of the most diversified products, bothin the foodstuffs field as well as in the technical field, using all heat-shrinking films (PVC,polyurefinic, polypropylene and its derivatives).

Fig. 3.4.1 Film shrinking is obtained at the same time asthe sealing and is produced by the forcedcirculation of hot air around the packaging.Air heating is obtained by making the samego through a group of thermo-controlledresistors. Should any sealing breakage occurduring shrinking it is possible to postpone thestart of heat-shrinking by acting on the controlpanel.The ventilation time and the oven'stemperature regulate the heat-shrinking.

7.2 AUDIO WARNING OF PROBLEMS

When there is an error, the display will show a reading like this:

The displayed code allows to find the type of error which has caused the alarm and theinterruption of the correct machine operation.

The error signallings which may occur are shown below:

PROBLEM 2: The cooling fin's temperature is too high.Solution:

• Check if the air intakes are clogged (turn off the power before carrying out any type of cleaning).

• Check if the cooling fan is functioning correctly.

If the problem persists stop the sealing and heat-shrinking operations, turn off the power supply and replace the electronic panel.

PROBLEM 3: The heat shrinking reading temperature is not stable.Solution:

• Turn off the power supply.

• Check if the ground connections are correct (including those of the MAINS).

• Check if the thermocouple's connecting terminals are well locked;
