Picture of defect: Wrinkling of the positioning band on stainless steel positioning band profile
The positioning band profile consists of a steel carrier onto which the positioning band with code labels is mechanically affixed under
constant tension. The positioning system is redundant and can reliably detect the positioning band even in the event of minor damage
to the positioning. Due to environmental influences (higher temperatures) during transport and storage, small wrinkles may occur in
individual cases. The wrinkles are physical and do not represent a technical defect. Their function is not affected.
6.4.1.1
Correcting wrinkles
To remove wrinkles, the positioning band can be cut at the next cutting mark using a knife and a steel ruler, and the positioning band
can be carefully detached from the carrier from the cutting mark to the wrinkle. The positioning band can then be pressed on again
from the wrinkle (red area) to the cutting mark:
1.
Cut positioning band at the cutting mark
2.
Carefully loosen positioning band up to the wrinkle
3.
Press positioning band back in place from the wrinkle to the cutting mark
