CONSUMPTION MATERIALS
BSS-134
CHAP.- 9
9.1 Consumption materials
To make its packages, the BSS-134 uses consumption material. The electrical system is provided
with sensors which detect its presence, and stop the machine instantly as soon as one or more of
these have run out. It is therefore necessary to recharge the machine now and then with the neces-
sary material. The consumption materials are:
- PAIRED NET AND FILM COILS = The BSS-134 can use two different kinds of coils of paired net
and fi lm (depending on the kind of product being processed, and hence on the diameter of the
loading tube).
- NOTCH PITCH COILS (these are net/fi lm coils which have notches as a reference for the photocell
which will give its consensus to the BSS-134 to perform the bag cutting operation).
- CONTINUOUS WITHDRAWAL COILS (these are net/fi lm coils without any bag cutting reference)
- LABELS (Option) = for applying labels with the typical information concerning the product to the
bags.
9.2 Loading the net/fi lm coil
Once you have chosen the kind of vert-bag (suitable for the product to be processed):
- Fit the net/fi lm coil [K] into the coil carrying shaft [A], fasten down the coil with its stop [B], and
tighten the ring nut [C] (see fi g.1 chap.9).
- Position the shaft with the coil assembled on its supports [D], and fasten it in place with the hooks
[E] (see fi g.2 chap.9).
- Make sure the presser [F] (see fi g.3 chap.9) does not rest on the sealing bar. Otherwise, use the
pneumatic valve lever [G] to lift the presser (this operation must be performed with the air supply
to the machine connected).
- Make sure the presser roller [H] does not rest on the roller [I]. Otherwise, use the lever [L] to
release the roller (see fi g.3 chap.9).
- Introduce the net/fi lm material through the tensioning rollers, exactly in the manner (see fi g.3
chap.9), till it passes beyond the tube with the intake.
