6. Adjust the glue station vertically to ensure the product is level.
7. To modify the ‘gap adjust’ (gap between applicator head and
bearing bar guide), use the bottom hex nut found on the upper
left side of the BOARDRUNNER. Once the gap is set, use the
top hex nut to lock it.
8. If a tab side (operator’s side) installation is required, reverse the
direction of the inlet guides and mount the scanner bracket,
valve bracket and bearing bar guide on the opposite side of the
BOARDRUNNER.
9. The bearing can be adjusted (in and out) to optimize the glue
pattern by guiding the board into the applicator head. This keeps
the board in contact with the applicator head through the entire
gluing section.
At least one product scanner should be installed to detect the leading edge of
the product for pattern gluing. A single scanner can be used to start the glue
patterns of both channel I and channel II
or the channels can work
individually off of separate scanners.
To install the scanner on a “combi” glue station (Figure 6-10), note the
following:
Using the two screws included with the scanner, fasten the
scanner to the combi station on the mounting block. This presets
the scanner height and cell-to-gun distance. (The cell-to-gun
distance will be approximately 4.37 inches.)
