Film Is Breaking Between The
Last Aluminum Roller And The
Load
Pallet greatly overhangs the load.
Observe the load. See if the film break
starts at the corners of the pallet.
Options are:
1. Reduce the film tension at the touch-
screen.
2. Reduce the stretch ratio.
3. Do not wrap the pallet with the load.
Raise the bottom position striker.
Film is damaged.
Observe the edges and sides of the roll for
damage from handling.
Replace improper film with film in good
condition.
Film is wound incorrectly.
Film may be wound incorrectly from the
manufacturer. Look for heavy, raised
stripes along the feed axis of the film. This
is known as "gauge banding".
Replace improper film with film in good
condition.
Stretch chain and / or belt geome-
try is incorrect. Out of alignment
components can cause feed drag.
Remove film carriage cover. Look for
loose chain and / or belt. Look for the belt
pulleys and the chain sprockets to be in
correct alignment.
Adjust as needed by repositioning the
combination sprocket-pulley.
Intermittent break in the cabling
between the carriage and the con-
trol panel.
Observe the film feed during a cycle. If
the film only breaks when the carriage is
in a certain spot in it's travel, then continu-
ity is suspect.
Perform a continuity check on all wiring
pertaining to the carriage while jogging
the carriage up and down. If a break in
continuity occurs, repair or replace the
cable.
