5.14 Calibrating the Heaters
To ensure that the workpiece is heated to the proper temperature, the heater must be calibrated. The
difference between the programmed (setpoint) temperature and the actual temperature of the heater
tooling must be determined and entered into the software.
 NOTE Perform this procedure on each of the conveyor heater channels/stations.
