Causes and Solutions
|
- Check that the conveyor is aligned with the table.
- If the plate is not loaded in the bay correctly, then
the rotator rotates the plate off-center. Check that all
media is loaded between the media alignment labels on
the load table.
- If the plate is skewed
while being pushed by the rotator then the rotator is
out of alignment. Adjust as follows:
- If both tabs are
contacting the plate and the plate is not parallel
to the edge of the table, remove the center cover
and adjust the rotator.
- The rod end of the
cylinder is threaded into the rotator arm. To
adjust, loosen the jam nut on the cylinder and turn
the rod end in the appropriate direction to correct
the skew. When finished, tighten the jam nut and
replace the center panel.
- If the plate is
over-rotated and does not square up when pushed,
adjust the large jam nut on the cylinder that acts
as a stop for the rotator when it is in the rotate
position. When adjusted, ensure you Loctite it in
place using Loctite 271 red high strength.(this is
the only thing that holds the nut in place).
- If the plate is
becoming skewed while the cups are releasing vacuum and
moving down, then the unload cup cylinders are not
operating simultaneously - one of the cups is moving
down earlier than the other causing plate to get skewed.
- Check for air
leaks in the air tubes.
- If the skew is
enough to cause jamming in the processor, then
replace the recalcitrant cup cylinder.
