Section 6.1:
Figure 6.4: Upper Weld
Roller going To Fast
Upper Weld Roller going To Fast
This is an example of the upper weld roller going too fast.
The green panel goes through the left side of the welder and
the yellow panel goes through the right side. The upper weld
roller is going faster than the bottom weld roller. This shows
in the wrinkling of the upper or right panel. The Upper Weld
Roller Sync or Vari-Drive must be decreased to eliminate this
appearance
Figure 6.5: Too Much
Shrinkage
Too Much Shrinkage
This is an example of too much shrinkage in the material.
Many thermoplastics tend to shrink when heated. Engaging
the Rear Roller assembly or increasing the tension in the Real
Roller Assembly will stretch the material and give a smoother
appearance.
Figure 6.6: Too Much
Rear Roller Tension
Too Much Rear Roller Tension
This is an example of too much Rear Roller Tension. The
seam appears wavy due to over stretching the material. By
decreasing the Rear Roller Tension or even removing the Rear
Roller Tension the appearance will become smoother.
Figure 6.7: Perfect Seam
Perfect Seam
This is an example of a perfect seam. There is no
waviness, wrinkles, or puckers.
