The ST9500
TM
Cycle
The ST9500 inserts one or two Plastic Staple
®
fastener(s) each cycle. Typically, the fastener attaches a
ticket to a piece of fabric.
How many cycles per press of the footswitch would the motor run? It depends on the settings of the cycle
mode. Please refer to Chapter 3 Operating the Front Panel.
The following describes one cycle.
□
Open the front door and adjust the needle space and shot mode (single shot or double shot)
before powering on the machine. Adjust the settings (cycle speed, interval, cycle mode etc) through the
front panel.
□
When the operator presses the footswitch, MCU receives a signal as an instruction to run the
motor, then MCU analyzes the settings that is saved in the RAM, and sends signals accordingly to the
motor driver, and motor driver drives the motor to run according to the settings.
□
The stepper motor is linked to Head by a Crank, when the motors runs a circle, the Head runs a
cycle.
□
As the head starts down , a cam inside the head pushes a lever which moves the knife, cutting the
fastener.
□
As the head moves down , gears inside the head drive the ejector rods down faster than the rest of
the head. The ejector rods drive a fastener out the needles and through the garment.
