Hot Press type PM-1056/160
Position the upper part of the press (1) onto the lower part of the press (6) with the belt
fastened to the heat stabilizer (8) and any inserts.
Turn the two fastening rods upwards (4) and evenly lock them at the two ends of the press
Ensure there is no liquid in the cooling circuit. This happens when the normal joining cycle is
stopped (either deliberately or due to a black-out for example) during the cooling stage.
In this case it is necessary to act as follows
:
Disconnect all electrical supply
Disconnect the pipes bring water into the press
Empty the press circuit using jets of compressed air.
When blowing air to expel water from the circuit, make sure the water does not come into
contact with electrical equipment.
Using the regulation equipment PMR-XX (see its own manual) bring the pressure cushion up
to the desired pressure to compress the belt
Using the regulating equipment PMR-XX (see its own manual) preselect the press's upper
and lower temperatures
Using the regulating equipment PMR-XX (see its own manual) select the joining time.
Using the regulating equipment PMR-XX (see its own manual) start up the joining cycle.
When the joining cycle is completed the cooling cycle has to be started up
Wait for the end of the cooling cycle
Drinking water is used for cooling. In a fixed installation water softening is recommended.
Detailed consulting is available on request.
NOTE
If the cooling cycle is stopped before the end the circuit will not discharge all the water in the
system. This may jeopardize the next joining cycle with resulting defective joints.
ATTENTION
The heated water can produce steam at 180° at a pressure of about 10 bars.
After the joining and subsequent cooling, by using the regulating equipment PMR-XX (see its
own manual), with the manual valve you can discharge the pressure set at the pressure
cushion.
Where standard production series are being carried out, do not lower the temperature below
80°C to reduce the heating time required for the next work cycle.
Open the hot press and carefully take the belt out and allow it to cool at room temperature.
ATTENTION
When you take the belt out, the press's parts are hot. Use suitable protective GLOVES.
