To be in charge of a packing station involves some attention with daily activities. The cleaning of the VFFS and baling machine is of the utmost importance, both for the good efficiency of the equipment and for the quality of the packed product.<\/p>\n

This care needs to be periodic to reflect positively on the future of the equipment and the industry.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How should the cleaning process be done?<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Remember that the power must be turned off and disconnected to clean the machines, as this ensures the safety of the operator and the equipment.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now follow the steps:<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. Disconnect the power supply of the machine using a padlock on the main switch to prevent that another person restarts the equipment.<\/p>\n

2. Disconnect the pneumatic supply of the equipment using a padlock.<\/p>\n

3. Remove the mechanical guards (if any).<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0Use the cleaning gun to remove the dust. Remember to always use the PPE\u2019s.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0Clean the machine observing manufacturer’s recommendations. Do not use water jets on the equipment! It can damage electronic and pneumatic components. Remember that it is not necessary to clean inside the electrical panel. Contact of liquids or detergents with electronic and pneumatic components must be avoided.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0To dry, use a dry and soft cloth.<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0After cleaning, grease the components that need lubrication, according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0Return the mechanical guards to their respective locations.<\/p>\n

9.\u00a0Turn on the electrical power and pneumatic of the equipment.<\/p>\n

10.\u00a0Check all safety devices.<\/p>\n

11. Make some empty bags \/ bundles.<\/p>\n

12.\u00a0Check if there is any fail with the equipment.<\/p>\n

13.\u00a0If everything is ok, start the automatic cycle with product.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Paint cleaning<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

When the equipment is painted with powder paint, cleaning should preferably be done with a neutral detergent, avoiding the use of \u201cheavy cleaning\u201d products.<\/p>\n

In extreme cases, use a solution of 7 parts of ethyl alcohol and 3 parts of water, as long as the part does not stay in contact with this solution for a long time.<\/p>\n

Contact with oxygenated solvents such as acetone and thinner should be avoided, as can damage the paint. Abrasive cleaning products should also be avoided, as well as acidic or alkaline solutions; even if diluted as: sanitary waters.<\/p>\n

Steel sponge type will cause scratches and loss of shine. Automotive waxes can be used without problems. In matte products there is a significant increase in gloss after polishing.<\/p>\n

Water jets and chemicals cleanings are prohibited for cleaning the electrical panel and pneumatic system. Failure to observe this item may cause damage to the pneumatic cylinders, as well as damage to the electrical system of the equipment and mechanical devices.<\/p>\n

The air gun can be used for surface cleaning of the equipment, however, observe if the air quality is in accordance with the technical specifications.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

CLEANING THE TRACTION BELT<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

To clean the traction belt, use ethyl alcohol with a soft cloth. But, as it is highly flammable, take care to handle the alcohol.<\/p>\n

The cleaning of the belt must be done following these recommendations:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. Disconnect the power supply of the machine using a padlock on the main switch to prevent that another person restarts the equipment.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0Disconnect the pneumatic supply of the equipment using a padlock.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0Wait for the sealing jaws cool down to room temperature.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0Open the traction system using the \u201cdrive belt traction<\/em>\u201d button on the panel.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0Open machine’s door.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0Remove the traction belt protection.<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0Open the vertical seal bar.<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0Using a cloth with ethyl alcohol, press the area of ??the traction belts, removing the dirt with a dry cloth.<\/p>\n

9.\u00a0Manually rotate the belt to continue cleaning.<\/p>\n

10.\u00a0Repeat the last steps until cleaning is complete.<\/p>\n
