2.2 SEALING JAW SAFETY
To prevent injury, product crushing or machine damage the jaw is equipped with several safeties
that will stop the machine operation if a product or other object is inside the sealing area when
the sealing blade lowers.
The operation of the jaw safety circuit should be verifi ed at least once per day. The jaw safety
circuit is designed to reopen the jaws immediately whenever the jaws contact an object upon
closing. The test requires attempting to make a seal with a rubber test object between the jaws.
When functioning properly, the jaw safety circuit will force the machine into an Emergency Stop
state upon contact with the test object.
2.2.1 Jaw safety Verifi cation Test
1. Ensure that all guards are in place. All doors and hoods must be closed.
2. Connect the compressed air supply for the machine.
3. Power up the machine.
4. Press the E-STOP button.
5. Test object should be resilient. Preferably a spare piece seal bed material (3/8” thick silicone
rubber). Place the test object on the conveyor belt between the seal jaws.
6. Release the E-STOP button by twisting clockwise.
7. Put the machine into a READY state by pressing the READY button (Blue).
8. Perform the test by pressing the manual seal button. The button must be held down until the
jaws close completely.
• PASS INDICATION: Jaws close and then immediately reopen; the READY light Flashes.
• FAIL INDICATION: Jaws do not reopen immediately and/or READY light remains on.
9. Repeat Steps 4-8 several times with the rubber object at different points along the entire length
of each seal jaw to ensure the integrity of the Jaw Safety Circuit.
