ROLL MOUNTINGS
Feeding
On the basic coaters, feeding is done on an infeed table of solid sheet
metal fabrication, mounted level with the roll pass line. A series of adjustable
pickoff fingers are mounted on the offbearing side of the machine to ensure
positive pickoff of the substrates being run. An outfeed table can also be
substituted for our pickoff fingers.
BEFORE STARTING:
Two areas must be checked before operating this machine. Be sure the
rolls are apart; be sure the pickoff fingers/outfeed table and infeed table are not
touching the rolls. Serious damage to the rolls or the machine will occur if
these points are not checked and corrected before operation. Careful reading
of these instructions will ensure you of satisfactory operation. Tighten all bolted
pieces to the machine (jarring and jolting during shipment may cause loosening
of parts or assemblies).
Move all rolls away from each other. Steel roll contact with each other
may cause a galling action and will ruin the finish of these rolls.
Roll rotation should be checked. If it is wrong recheck circuit for proper
wiring.
