>> Procedures of Seam Sealing
Set the heater temperature, nozzle air pressure and fabric speed to the desired values. To begin
with, set to 400°C, 0.1Mpa and 12ft/min accordingly. This should be a fair setting to start with.
However, other setting can be used depending on the actual situation.
Activate the RUN (left foot) pedal momentarily, check the position of the nozzle and adjust
accordingly.
Insert the seam tape through the tape stabilizer and the white tape presser roller, activate the JOG
(right foot) pedal to advance the tape towards the nip rollers. The tape must be position in the
middle and with the adhesive side facing towards the operator. Adjust the sealing tape to proper
tension and running position (refer to section on tape loading)
Raise the upper nip roller by heeling back the left foot pedal, put the tape and the sewn seam in
the center and release the left foot pedal so that the upper nip roller presses on the tape and seam
tightly.
Collect the seam with both hands until the starting point can be reached by fingers. Position the
forearms on the table and smooth out the seam with your fingers.
Activate the RUN (left foot) pedal, the hot air nozzle will engage and the nip rollers will start turning
and draw the tape and the seam in between the nip rollers. Release the seam while keeping it in
the center of the lower nip roller.
Near the end of tape, step on the right foot pedal while left foot pedal is still down. This will cut the
tape, the upper nip roller will rise and new section of tape is fed.
The first seam sealing is completed; resume sealing for the next seam.
