Mandrel Tension Adjustment
Mandrel tension is required to control over spin
of a full tape roll after the case is finished
processing. The tension is set at the factory
and no change to the tension should be
necessary since the peel off roller should
control the over spin in most cases.
Do not increase mandrel tension to improve
tape cutting. Slightly increase the one way
clutched roller to improve cutting action
Changes in mandrel tension might be required
for the following reasons:
1. Larger than 1000yd (914m) are used.
2. Tape head is installed on faster line
speeds.
3. The tape roll continues to over spin
more than ¼ turn after the case leaves
the tape head.
Should a change in mandrel tension be
required, follow these steps:
1. Observe the rotation of a full tape roll as
a case processes.
2. Should the tape roll continue to rotate
more than ¼ turn after the case leaves
the tape head, increase the adjustment
nut slightly until only a small amount of
rotation occurs.
3. Should the tape roll rotate very little or
not at all after the case leaves the tape
head, decrease the adjustment nut
slightly until a small amount of rotation
occurs.
