Maintenance

As a result of years of experience, refined engineering and construction techniques, very little time need
be lost to maintenance.  However, regular maintenance will keep your laminator operating at its optimum
level.

 Removing the enclosure covers to work on machine exposes person
to  electrocution  and  moving  parts  hazard.    Only  trained  service
personnel  should  perform  maintenance  with  any  guards  or  covers
removed.

Nip Roll Section

The most critical adjustment of the nip and pull rolls is the “zero” position.  This adjustment makes the top
roll parallel to the bottom roll which creates even pressure and pull distribution across the face of the roll.
If the rolls are out of adjustment, the machine  will not laminate properly.  Zeroing the  nip  is  done  at  the
factory before shipment, but should be checked at startup and if laminator is not creating quality output.

Checking the Nip

1.  Place  two  pieces  of  thin  paper  (approximately  1.0”  wide  by  12.0”  long)  between  the  upper

pressure roll and the lower roll (about 3.0” from each end).

2.  Set  the  shim  dial  to  the  “0”  setting  and  put  the  upper  pressure  roll  in  the  down  position  by

activating pressure roll valve.

3.  Pull  gently  on  both  pieces  of  paper,  if  both  pieces  of  paper  have  the  same  drag,  the  nip  is

fine, if the  drag  is  different,  follow  the  procedure  below  to  correct  the  setting.    The  pull  rolls
are adjusted the same as the nip rolls.

Zeroing the Nip

1.  Loosen the sets screw in the cylinder stop.
2.  Adjust the cylinder stop clockwise to raise the roll and counter clockwise to lower the roll.
3.  Check the nip using the 3 steps shown in the 

Checking the Nip

 section.

4.  Once the drag on the pieces of paper has been equalized, tighten the setscrew in the cylinder

stop.

Cleaning the Nip Rolls

Cleaning the nip rolls may require the nip rolls to be rotating.  Rotate
the rolls at a very slow rate to avoid being pulled into the nip section.
Do  not  wear  neck  ties,  loose  clothing  or  hanging  jewelry  that  could

be pulled into the nip section.

The nip rolls should be cleaned as often as necessary, the frequency will vary on the products used and
the processes being run.  AGL recommends a mild detergent solution or denatured alcohol with a 100%
lint  free  cloth  to  clean  the  rolls.    Your  film  manufacturer  can  recommend  solvents  that  will  remove  the
adhesive  from  silicone  and  neoprene  rolls  without  causing  damage  to  the  coverings.    To  facilitate  the
cleanup process, adhesives should be cleaned from the rolls as soon as possible and while the roll is still
warm.  A rubber "eraser" has been included in your accessory kit that can be used to clean the adhesive
from the warm rolls.  Rub the eraser over the adhesive with the rolls turning very slowly.  The cloth and
alcohol can be used to remove the residue.

Use of incorrect solvents on your nip can cause irreparable damage to
the coverings.  Advanced Grieg Laminators,Inc. is not responsible for
damage to roll coverings caused by these solvents.
