The operator controls for the ORCA-IV Image Transfer
Laminator are located on the front and rear of the
machine, to the right of the operator positions. The
names and functions of these controls are as follows:
)URQW &RQWURO 3DQHO
Figure 3-5: Front Control Panel
1. MAIN ROLL PRESSURE DISPLAY - Displays
the air pressure pushing the upper main roll down.
2. MAIN ROLL UP/DOWN - Sets the upper main
roll to the up (load) or down (operate) position.
3. MAIN ROLL PRESSURE CONTROL - Varies
the air pressure fed to the cylinders that drive the
upper main roll down.
4. PREHEATER ON/OFF (optional) - Turns on or
off the preheater. The preheater mode is indicated
by a P in the accumulator display.
5. GBC LOGO AUTOMATIC/MANUAL MODE
CONTROL - Toggles between Automatic Tension
and Manual Tension mode. In Automatic Tension
mode, the system automatically adjusts the brake/
clutch pressure. In Manual Tension mode the sys-
tem doesn’t automatically adjust these pressures
(indicated by an H or L in the accumulator dis-
play). In the Automatic Tension mode with the
motor stopped, setting a web force (tension) for
either a clutch or brake loads that force into the
internal computer, which then automatically
adjusts the air pressure sent to the clutch/brake to
obtain the required web tension based on the roll
size. When you enter the setting and then turn the
motor on, the indicator changes from reading the
web force to the actual pressure sent to the brake to
attain the required web force calculated for that roll
size. In Manual Tension mode the display reads
actual pressure sent to the clutch/brake. This pres-
sure stays set until you change it. The computer
will not override your setting or change the display.
6. SPEED/ACCUMULATOR DISPLAY - Dis-
plays either the accumulator or speed, depending
on which you have selected with the SPEED/
ACCUMULATOR TOGGLE. A letter in the dis-
play before the speed readout indicates the mode of
operation:
H - Manual mode with the preheater off.
P - Automatic mode with the preheater on.
L - Manual mode with the preheater on.
No letter - Automatic mode with the preheater off.
The following codes alert you to machine status:
.0 - The machine is reset and ready to be started.
8888 - Main power has just been turned on and the
main reset has not yet been pressed.
In addition to these codes, if an emergency stop
button or kick cable is activated, the decimal point
will no longer be displayed (for example, 3.0 would
change to 3 0). Simply resetting the emergency stop
button or kick cable does not change the display.
You must also press the main machine reset button
for display to read .0 indicating the machine is
ready to be started. Note that you must reset the
emergency stop button or kick cable before press-
ing the main machine reset or the machine will not
be reset.
7. SPEED ADJUSTMENT - Adjusts the speed of
the machine from zero to maximum as the control
is turned clockwise. Adjust the speed control
slowly for best results.
