3.1-8 Shipment by Air
When machine is shipped by air the wrapping unit will have the conveyor mounted
under the collation table. Due to the height limitation on aircraft door, the wrapping
unit is normally shipped on its back, with steel shipping rails provided for that.
Shrink tunnel control box and the main fan motors may be also removes to reduce
the height and shipping volume.
3.2 Installation
3.2-1 Reassembly procedure
a) Wrapping Unit
– remove all packing materials and place the machine upright.
– unbolt the shipping rails
– unbolt the infeed conveyor, remove shipping brackets by undoing the
hexagon head screws from the guide posts.
– affix conveyor support leg on the correct set of holes. For single lane
collation machines the holes closest to the front of the unit are the correct
ones.
Note! Do not tighten up bolts at this stage as they may have to be adjusted.
– mount the conveyor on corresponding holes on the collation table and on
top of the support leg. At this stage the conveyor should be adjusted so that
its top surface is parallel to the top of the table and it is at 90 degrees to the
side of the table.
– Slide forward the fixed guide and clamp in line with retracting table guide
such that the product transferred from the conveyor to the table will not
move sideways.
b) Control Box
– Unpack the control box and remove the cover. Hold the control box above
the front part of the tunnel and feed the wires into the bottom. Secure in
place and connect the wires as per marking.
c) Main Fan Motors
– When refitting these make sure that the junction boxes are facing the side of
the machine and cable entry holes point to the infeed side of the tunnel.
– The motors are mounted on 4 spacers. Before final locking in position check
that the shaft of the motor is in the centre of the hole in the ceiling of the
tunnel.
d) Main Fan Rotors
– Fan rotors must be installed in the correct fan housing otherwise there will
be a very little air flow generated.
