After the Labeling machine sensor sends a signal that the labeling object is ready to be labeled, the drive wheel on the Labeling machine turns up. As the rolled label is in a tight state on the equipment, when the Labeling machine backing paper is tightly attached to the peeling plate and changes direction, the Labeling machine label is forced to disengage due to the rigidity of its material and is ready to be labeled. At this time, the labeling object is located just below the label, under the action of the labeling wheel, to achieve synchronous labeling. After the Labeling machine has finished labeling, the sensor under the roll label sends a stop signal, the drive wheel comes to a standstill, and a labeling cycle end. No matter which type of Labeling machine, the labeling process is roughly the same. The difference is that the installation position of the Labeling machine is different, the labeling object is conveyed differently and positioned differently, and the form of the labeling roller of the Labeling machine is also different. So, what are the Labeling machine's requirements for labels? Let's look at it together next.

This is the content list:

l Surface material

l Release force

l Processing quality

Surface material

Labeling machine label stiffness is the key to labeling, so the Labeling machine surface material is required to have a certain strength and hardness. Labeling machine label stiffness and the thickness of the material and the area of the label, so the Labeling machine in the use of soft film material should be appropriate to increase its thickness, generally controlled at 100μm or more. Labeling machine thin paper materials, such as 60 ~ 70g/m2 labeling paper, are generally not suitable for the production of large labels, but suitable for processing into small labels, such as price tags used on the price tag. Labeling machine label stiffness is not good, it will cause labeling out of the label, or label and backing paper reward so that the automatic labeling failure.

Peel-off force

Labeling machine peel-off force is the force at which the label is separated from the backing paper by the Labeling machine. The Labeling machine release force is related to the type and thickness of the adhesive, the silicone coating on the surface of the backing paper, and the ambient temperature at the time of labeling. If the Labeling machine release force is too small, the label will easily fall off (leave the backing paper) during the conveying process. The Labeling machine's release force is too large, the label will be difficult to detach from the backing paper, and it will not be able to produce labels. The Labeling machine should be integrated control of the technical indicators so that the release force is maintained within a reasonable range.

At the end of the paper

Is also an important indicator to control automatic labeling. The requirements of the Labeling machine base paper surface silicon-coated evenly, the Labeling machine peeling force is consistent. Uniform thickness and good tensile strength ensure that the Labeling machine will not break when labeling. Uniform thickness and good light transmission of the Labeling machine ensure that the sensor can correctly identify the location of the label.

Processing quality

Requires that both sides of the Labeling machine backing paper after slitting should be flat and free of fracture to avoid the backing paper from breaking when the tension changes. Labeling machine die-cutting, to avoid cutting through the backing paper or damage to the silicone layer. If the Labeling machine backing paper and silicone coated layer are destroyed, the Labeling machine backing paper will break easily or the glue in the label will penetrate the backing paper. In addition, the static electricity in the web label must be eliminated before Labeling machine labeling, because static electricity will lead to Labeling machine labeling failure or labeling inaccuracy.

There is already a lot of knowledge about the Labeling Machine in the market, but the Labeling Machine will appear crooked in the process of using it. How should this be solved? Let's take a look together next.

This is the content list:

Reasons for Labeling Machine crooked during use

Labeling Machine appears to "post crooked" solution

Reasons for Labeling Machine crooked during use

Why does Labeling Machine post crookedly during use? There are two factors: one is running in an environment that is not suitable for Labeling Machine work, and the other is the lack of maintenance of Labeling Machine equipment. The round Labeling Machine adopts self-adhesive roll labeling paper, and the labeling adopts the rolling method to complete the labeling process. The self-adhesive Labeling Machine is clean and hygienic, non-mold, beautiful, and firm after labeling, and will not fall off by itself, and production efficiency Higher merits. If you can do both of these things, you can eliminate the problem of inaccurate labeling.

Labeling Machine appears to "post crooked" solution

First, stop the Labeling Machine, and then inspect whether the labeling heads on both sides of the Labeling Machine are loose. Use the tools configured by the manufacturer to stabilize the Labeling Machine. Check whether the Labeling Machine wraps the label's trays for looseness or uneven rotation speed. Add engine oil to lubricate. Round bottle Labeling Machine realizes labeling or filming on the circumferential surface of cylindrical and conical products, such as glass bottles, plastic bottles, etc. It can realize circumferential, semicircular, circumferential double-sided, circumferential positioning labeling and other functions, mainly vertical There are two ways of labeling and horizontal labeling. Then inspect the parameters of the Labeling Machine operating system to avoid labeling different products under the same parameters of the Labeling Machine. Finally, adjust the labeling head and place the labeling product separately. When the conveyor belt is conveyed, whether the Labeling Machine shakes or shakes the first two These steps must be performed after the Labeling Machine stops. If the above two cannot solve the labeling problem of the Labeling Machine, please do not disassemble and replace the internal parts of the device privately. You need to transfer the professional to repair the Labeling Machine.

3. The flowmeter used by the Capping Machine for spray filling is a precision instrument. Therefore, the oil must be precision filtered before it can be filled.　　

4. Turn off the power supply and oil inlet valve of the Capping Machine after finishing the work.　　

5. Pay attention to the cleanliness of the infrared sensor from the Capping Machine. Frequently wipe it clean with clean cotton. It is strictly forbidden for any object to approach the sensor during the working process, and strong light should not be directly or reflected on the sensor, otherwise, it will prosper and malfunction.

6. Add cylinder lubricating oil to the pneumatic triplet regularly.　　

7. When the machine is not used for a long time, all parts should be wiped clean and covered with plastic or tarpaulin to prevent dust.

How to deal with common problems of Capping Machine

First, what should I do if the cylinder piston of the Capping Machine does not work? Confirm whether the safety emergency stop switch is safe. Confirm that the air supply switch of the Capping Machine is turned on. Check if the Capping Machine one-way signal valve is damaged.

Second, what should I do if the Capping Machine cylinder piston does not return after being pushed to the top? Confirm whether the moving target is in contact with the one-way valve.

Third, how to adjust the filling volume of the Capping Machine is inaccurate or not discharged?

Check whether the upper and lower throttle valves of the Capping Machine are closed, and increase the pumping speed of the throttle valve of the cylinder. Make sure that the Capping Machine quick-install tee is locked with a clamp. Confirm whether there are enough materials in the Capping Machine storage box. Make sure that the joints of the pipes of the Capping Machine are sealed.

Fourth, what should I do if the material of the Capping Machine flows out from the rear end of the cylinder? Check whether the sealing ring on the Capping Machine piston is worn. If it is worn, replace it and make sure that the piston and the piston rod are tight.

In addition to timely handling of problems, it is also necessary to do a good job of preventive work in advance.

Installation of Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper

According to different models and specifications of Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper, refer to the random manual for installation.

For small-sized Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper, it is not required to build the foundation, just install it on the flat workshop floor, make a good horizontal reference, adjust the elevation of incoming and outgoing chain belt according to the layout diagram, and adjust the legs to make the load of the whole machine evenly distributed.

For large-sized Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper, it is necessary to build a solid installation foundation as required. When installing, the horizontal benchmark should be played, especially when it is connected with the capping machine, the two parts of the incoming and outgoing bottle belts must be at the same horizontal benchmark.

To ensure the smooth bottle delivery of Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper, the inlet pallet under the inlet star wheel should be 0.5mm higher than the surface of the bottle tray, and the outlet pallet under the middle star wheel should be 0.5mm lower than the surface of the bottle tray. The running is free and there should be no jamming interference. The horizontal part of the liquid inlet pipe should have a certain slope to facilitate emptying and air discharge. Make sure the bearing load of Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper's legs is even. Matching equipment with the host, such as gas-liquid control box, vacuum pump system and electric control box, etc. are generally installed separately.

Commissioning of Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper

After confirming the installation of Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper is completed, the commissioning of Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper can be carried out step by step as follows. Replace suitable accessories according to the bottle type filled by Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper, and adjust the parts, including the inlet screw, guide bar spacing, side guard safety switch, star-shaped paddle wheel, reservoir, and capping head height adjustment, etc. Thoroughly clean the Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper reservoir, liquid piping, and gas piping to ensure that there is no foreign material. Make a hydraulic test on the storage tank and pipeline at the same time. Check carefully whether the wiring of the Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper control box is correct, and turn on the main switch only after the equipment is turned manually without jamming. Start the equipment in a pointing way to check if there is any abnormality. Start the Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper at low speed and check the starting, braking, emergency stop, and speed regulation performance. Then infuse an empty bottle at low speed, check whether it can pass through the bottle feed screw, guide bar, and star wheel smoothly and whether each control touch block can respond sensitively. Check whether the Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper can drop the cap smoothly and seal the cap tightly. After that, adjust the value of each instrument on the liquid and gas control cabinet according to the filing requirements of Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper. Check the liquid level and pressure of Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper reservoir, make filling test, adjust the filling head and control the bottling level.

Maintenance of Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper

Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper in the process of use, must be required to carry out regular maintenance. First of all, we must ensure that the lubrication status of the Pharmaceutical Filler and Capper must be good, and the lubrication points must be well-lubricated in time to maintain the oil level of each tank and the intact spray lubrication function. Timely replacement of a variety of damaged parts, such as seals, bottle transport parts, and transmission parts in the wearing parts.

Capping Machine is filling equipment specially designed for new oral liquid easy-pull bottles. The design is reasonable, the structure is simple, the operation is convenient, and a mechanical stop filling device is provided for lack of bottles. So what are the adjustment methods of the Capping Machine? Let's take a look together next.

This is the content list:

l Capping Machine feeding half adjustment

l Matters needing attention in discharging

l Adjustment of the locking device

l Vibrator adjustment

Capping Machine feeding half adjustment

Adjust the bottle blocking plate on the feeding half of the Capping Machine upwards to shorten the adaptation to the bottle feeding stroke. Adjust downwards to make the Capping Machine adapt to the extension of the bottle feeding stroke. Adjust the positioning bottle position left and right to align the bottle position when the movable tooth is running, so that the bottle can be fed into the positioning tooth smoothly. Adjust the bottle blocking plate of the Capping Machine so that the width of the bottle inlet is about 22 mm.

Adjust the perfusion Capping Machine component. The role of the perfusion Capping Machine component is to make the liquid medicine be delivered to each easy-pull bottle in time through the dosing device, one-way valve, and needle. Therefore, the needle must enter the bottle mouth properly and the filling time must be appropriate. Adjust the Capping Machine side cam to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise so that the needle is inserted into the bottle mouth just after the empty bottle enters the toothed position. And lift the needle before leaving the toothed position. The filling time of the Capping Machine is adjusted. Turn the cam clockwise or reverse the adjustable needle into the bottle mouth and start filling immediately, and stop filling before the needle leaves the bottle mouth.

Matters needing attention in discharging

Since the Capping Machine is an easy-pull bottle filling and locking device, the discharging has been capped and sealed. To prevent the locked bottle from overturning, it must be placed on the Capping Machine discharge hopper before the first bottle is discharged. Several empty bottles can be transported to the discharge hopper smoothly to keep the locked bottles and sent to the next process with the bottle hopper.

Adjustment of the locking device

Capping Machine capping time adjustment, adjust the cam rotation angle. When the filling liquid bottle enters the locking tooth position, the locking shaft has moved and left the bottle cap before the moving tooth approaches the bottle. The capping pressure is adjusted, and the capping pressure is adjusted. The size of the cap pressure is directly related to the quality of the lock. If the pressure is too high to break the easy-pull bottle, and the pressure is too small, it will affect the sealing performance. Therefore, the nut should be adjusted according to the actual average height of the easy-pull bottle to adjust the pressure to the best.

Capping Machine blade action time adjustment, the blade should be close to the bottleneck before the end of the capping, otherwise, the locking effect of some short bottles cannot be achieved. Loosen the nut during adjustment, and adjust the shaft and up and down to make the blade action time sooner or later. When adjusting the lock of the Capping Machine, pay attention to the locking of the nuts after the adjustment of each department. The easy-pull bottle must be used for the initial valve test. The average height must be taken. Irregular easy-pull bottles cannot enter the lock to avoid damage to the parts.

Vibrator adjustment

The Capping Machine adopts the principle of electromagnetic oscillation to drop the bottle cap to the proper position along the track according to a certain movement trajectory. The vibrator is packaged separately when it leaves the factory, and the lower rail opening must be aligned with the movement rail of the easy-pull bottle when installed. To adjust the gap between the magnets of the Capping Machine, loosen the screw, open the cover, adjust the nut, and make the vibration of the Capping Machine low and fast.

Wenzhou Zungwan Intelligent Machinery Co., Ltd. is a professional equipment manufacturer. It strictly controls the production of the Capping Machine.
