  1. INTRODUCTION

You have bought a machine with outstanding features and performance and we thank you very much for your confidence in choosing it. The NEXGEN-2030 system is a reliable, low priced and handy machine. The technological concept underlying its design, as well as the components and materials used in the manufacturing and testing process are the best assurance of proper operation and long-lasting liability.

  1. PERFORMANCES OF THE PACKAGING MACHINE

Thanks to its particular operating circuit, it can be used either as sealing and shrinking machine or as a sealing machine (sealing only). In this case it is possible to pack the object in a soft bag without shrink-wrapping. The film can be punched or not when running through the micro punch of machine itself. The film thickness in the range of 15-50 micron can be used.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Before executing the electrical connections, make sure that the power supply is match to the

following conditions:

NEXGEN-2030

Where the wire with green-yellow color is the earthling wire, the wire with labeling “L” is the live wire; the wire with labeling “N” is the neutral wire.

Make sure all wires are connected properly, in case of doubts about the main voltage contact

the local public supplies company. ATTENTION: Earthing of the machine is obligatory.

  1. PRINCIPELS OF OPERATION

SEALING

Sealing and shrinking are done on impulse, set through an automatic control of sealing. The heat of the sealing blade melts film and then it is pressed between sealing blade and sealing tape.

SHRINKING

Film shrinking is obtained contemporaneously to sealing and is produced by the forced circulation of hot air around the package.

Air heating is obtained by making the air pass through a group or thermostat heater.( heating

  1. MACHINE ADJUSTMENT AND OPERATION

ADJUSTMENT

①The NEXGEN-2030 can be used as a simple sealing machine or as a machine for sealing and shrinking at the same time.

②Turn the Main Switch (1) into pos.1 to carry out cutting and sealing only. ③Turn the Main Switch (1) into pos.2 to carry out sealing and shrinking in one operation. While in pos.2, before operating machine, wait till the adjusted temperature is reached (7-10 min) which is signaled through the switching off of the Temperature Controller (2).

④Adjust the Temperature Controller (2) into 150℃ which corresponds to on average shrinking temperature, if shrinking is unsatisfactory or the time to obtain it is too long, increase the adjusted value also according to the kind of film used.

⑤Adjust the Sealing Timer (3) into 1 second (for PVC ) corresponding to a medium sealing time. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the set value depend on the type and thickness of the film used. Attention: Increase the sealing time gradually, sealing blade overheat will shorten the life of the blade and blade holder; adjust the interval of the sealing temperature into 2-5mm

(according to the packing material).

⑥Adjust the Shrinking Timer (4) into 4 seconds, then increase or decrease the adjusted value according to the result obtained.

(1) Main Switch

(6) For Model 5540A, there is a Conveyor Timer for standard model to setup the transport time.

INSERTING ROLL OF FILM

Insert the roll of film on the Roller (6) and block it through the Centering cones (7). See Fig6. Run through the Micro punch (8). Run the film lower layer under the Packaging Plate (9). Run the film upper layer over the Packaging Plate (9) and Separator Rod (10). See Fig.6: (6).Roller (7).Centering Cone (8).Micro punch (9).Packing Plate (10).Separator Roll (11).Film Holder

INSTALLATION OF THE SCREEN PLATE

For a proper packing result, the screen plate (12) must be adjusted such that the film sealing is made at the half of the packaging height. See

And the Film Holder (11) and the Packing Plate (9) must be adjusted according to the width of the product to be packed , leaving a space of about 2 cm between the product and the sealing edge.

INTRODUCE THE OBJECT OT BE WRAPPED

After carried out the first seal, the film is now ready to carry out wrapping. As Fig.8 shown, introduce the product Into the bag using the right hand ( see Picture ) and make it slide to the left until it is laid on the screen leaving a little space of about 1-2 cm to allow the passage of air for shrink-wrapping.

OPERATION

By pushing the cover handle with a Pressure of 10-15 kg, the cover Rests on the sealing blade; by Pinching the film, it is automatically sealed on the open sides (right and front). In case you have selected the function SEALING + SHRINK WRAPPING you will see the film shrink onto the product. Slightly decrease the pressure on the cover handle to allow film detaches from the sealing area on the inside. With the right hand detach the film the sealing blade to towards the outside (see Fig. 9)

DANGER AND WARNING AREAS

Do not touch the Sealing Blade (13) soon after sealing by

reaching beyond the Safety guard (14). Danger of burns due to residual heat on the sealing blade.

Do not keep on sealing in case the Sealing Blade (13) breaks

but replace it at once.

Do not touch the Chamber Closing Flap (15) during warm up and operating.

Always leave the Plastic cover (16) open (see Fig 12), when the machine is not in use.

  1. MACHINE MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR

Before proceeding to maintenance, switch off the machine, see Fig.13

CLEANING OF THE SEALING WIRE

Using a dry cloth or copper brush, wipe off the film residues slinging to the sealing wire: do this at once after sealing since the residues are easier to remove when still warm. Lubricate the sealing wire periodically with the silicon spray supplied for the purpose.

CLEANING THE MACHINE

If the machine works in a dust environment it is necessary to clean it more frequently inside as well as outside. It is especially recommended to vacuum-clean the dust that settles on the interior electrical components. To open the switch box (17) again remove the 4 fastening screws.

RUBBER AND TEFLON REPLACEMENT

When the Teflon (19) is worn down, replace with the self-adhesive spare one. Be careful to apply it straight and flat . Clean the rubber with detergent before applying the self-adhesive Teflon tape. If also the Rubber (20) is damaged, replace it as follows: Remove the old rubber and clean the housing. Use tow-sided adhesive tape to fixed the new rubber in linear way. Apply the self-adhesive Teflon-strip.

Machine is sealing but not shrinking

Shrink function is not selected

Check the main switch

Temperature is to low or Check the set value of temperature warm up time is not enough controller

Change the new heater

Fan is not working

Micro switch is damaged or a fault of

Some blister persist Film is not punched and air Pass film through the micro punch of during shrink – wrapping cannot exit the machine

Shrink-wrapping is carried out but is not

Film is not suitable or its quality is scanty

Use shrink film with the index of longitudinal and transversal shrink

wrapping is about 40-70%.

Beside the above possible reasons, voltage supply stability is another main reasons, since voltage fluctuation will damage the circuit.

If after all checks the machine still does not run properly, please contact after sales service.

Quick start

  1. Assemble: Unpack the machine and assemble the trolley. Lift the machine onto the trolley with the 4 feet in their housings. Slide the film holder onto the film supporter rail.
  2. Connect power: Check that the power supply matches the machine rating. Earthing of the machine is required.
  3. Choose the mode: Turn the main switch to position 1 to cut and seal only. Turn it to position 2 to seal and shrink in one operation.
  4. Warm up: In position 2, wait 7 to 10 minutes until the temperature controller switches off.
  5. Set the temperature: Set the temperature controller to 150 C. Raise it if shrinking is poor or slow.
  6. Set the timers: Set the sealing timer to 1 second for PVC and the shrinking timer to 4 seconds. Change them for your film. Raise the sealing time slowly.
  7. Seal: Push the cover handle with 10 to 15 kg of pressure. The film seals on the open sides. Ease the pressure and pull the film away from the blade.
