Position the belt as required on the heat equilazing plate (8) and clamp it, making sure it is flat.
Position the upper part of the press (1) onto the lower part of the press (6) with the belt fastened to the
heat equalizing plate (8) and the required inserts.
Flip back the two locking spindles (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 tubes of the press.
Empty the cooling 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.
Use the regulation unitt PMR-XX (see its own manual) to bring the pressure cushion up to the desired
pressure.
Use the regulating unit PMR-XX (see its own manual) to preselect the hot-pressing device's upper and
lower temperatures.
Use the regulating unit PMR-XX (see its own manual) to select the joining time.
Use the regulating unit PMR-XX (see its own manual) to start the joining cycle.
When the joining cycle is completed the cooling cycle is started.
Wait for the end of the cooling cycle.
Tap water is used for cooling. In a stationary installation water softening is recommended. Detailed
consulting is available on request.
NOTE
If the cooling cycle is stopped before the end the circuit, it will not discharge all the water of 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 bar.
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 of 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 working cycle.
Open hot-pressing device, carefully take out the belt 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.
