4.5 Process Sequence
4.5.1 Application Process SGA 500 R with Product Guide
Figure 6
1. The unit is set up according to chapter 6.2 Setting Up the Unit.
2. Loosen the locking bolt (Figure 6C) and pull the hand lever (Figure 6D) upwards.
The swivel lever with the application roller (Figure 6B) swivels down. The unit is ready.
3. Guide the product to be bonded over the right side onto the set-up product guide (Figure 6A) under
the application roller (Figure 6B) and push it further down the roller conveyor. Always repress the
beginning of the adhesive tape on the first product.
The compression spring holds the application roller down and thus ensures the necessary contact
pressure of the adhesive tape on the product surface.
4. Push a second product on the roller conveyor and pass both of them under the application roller.
As soon as the first product is a little behind the application roller, cut the adhesive tape between
the two products.
NOTE: Danger in the area when cutting the tape. Danger of cutting.
Wear protective gloves. Do not reach into the blade.
5. Push another product on the roller conveyor so that the second product with the tape applied is
behind the application roller and proceed as described above.
6. Pull the hand lever (Figure 6D) down when you finish the process in order to lift the application roller
and to fix the locking bolt again.
The swivel lever with the application remains in the upper position. The unit is not ready.
