Chapter 3: General Operating Principles
Before you start using the DES-30 pneumatic heat seal machine, read this chapter to become
familiar with general principles of all heat sealing operations and to learn the following
operating procedures that are specific to the DES-30.

Actuating the DES-30

Using the Emergency Release pushbutton
General Heat Sealing Principles
All heat sealing processes involve three main factors, as follows:

The temperature of the platens;

The inter-platen pressure;

The cycle dwell time.
To set tolerances and control values for platen temperature, inter-platen pressure, and cycle
dwell time, use the DES-30 control panel. For more information, see Chapter 4,
Using the DES-
30 Control Panel . You can also use the control panel’s digital display area to monitor the DES-
30’s actual platen temperatures and air line pressure. The exact settings of the three main
factors depend on the requirements of your specific fusing or transfer application.
Actuating the Heat Seal Machine
To actuate the DES-30, perform the following:

Simultaneously press the Right and Left Start Cycle pushbuttons. The pushbuttons must
be depressed within .5 seconds of each other to actuate the DES-30.
Using the Emergency Release Pushbutton
To interrupt the DES-30 during operation:

Push the red “Emergency Release” pushbutton located on the front of the machine.
This safety feature bypasses the timer and immediately opens the press in case of an
emergency. Also, the press should open immediately if the power switch is turned
“OFF” or if the machine power cord is unplugged.
