Start/stop
Starts or stops the wrap cycle (also continues the wrap
cycle after the top cover pauses or after stopping "in
cycle" by using the emergency stop) and brings the
carriage down in spiral up mode.
Emergency stop
Temporarily stops the sequence by cutting all power to
the drives. Wrapping sequence may be re-started after
pressing E-stop. (To re-start the wrap cycle, simply
release the E-stop and press the START/STOP button.)
Autoheight off/on
Allows "autoheight sensing" for pallet load height
variations. (There are limit switches on the carriage
with adjustable stops on tower as safety override).
Top cover off/on
Offers the ability to "Pause" the cycle when the film
carriage reaches the top of the load in order for the
operator to place a top sheet on the load. Once top
sheet is in place, the operator presses "Start/Stop"
button and the cycle resumes, wrapping the top sheet
with the specified wraps. The machine then completes
the rest of its wrap cycle.
Spiral up up/down
Controls the way pallet load is wrapped. In spiral up
mode, specified bottom wraps are completed. Carriage
then travels up to do specified top wraps and stops.
The operator cuts the film and presses "Start/Stop"
button, which automatically brings the carriage down
to home position for the start of the next cycle. In the
spiral up/down cycle, the carriage spirals up
immediately in order to wrap the top of the load first,
with the specified top wraps. Then the carriage travels
down to wrap the bottom with the correct number of
bottom wraps. This cycle provides stability to the
pallet where loads are more sensitive to centrifugal
reaction and instability, depending on stacking
methods.
