Box Present Sensing Assembly
The box present sensing assembly consists of two
identical brackets. One is used to mount the sensor
and guard. The other is for mounting the reector.
Each bracket uses a 3M™ VHB™ acrylic foam tape to
adhere the sensor/reector bracket assemblies to the
case sealer. These brackets have tabs for alignment
"squaring" to the case sealer’s base or column. They
are also slotted to allow for additional adjustment of
sensor and reector along the bracket length.
Mounting Procedure
The guidelines for positioning the sensor/reector
brackets are listed below.
Figure 2-13
5) Remove the e-ring, roller, shaft, sensor and
bracket to position on correct side as illustrated
in Figure 2-13.
6) Thread the sensor into bracket until the end of
the sensor is approximately. 1mm (.039”) from
end of roller. Check to insure all seven targets
are sensed as the roller turns.
1) Verifythatthe control boxisproperlymountedto
the case sealer.
2) Determine the appropriate mounting location for
your application. The box present sensor can be
mounted at various locations from a point ahead
of the applying roller to the end of the cuto
bracket. Whenever possible the sensor/reector
brackets should be positioned approximately ½”
from the end of the lower taping head cuto
bracket. For applications with top taping only
the position should be chosen using the upper
taping head cutobracket. The sensor must also
be positioned to detect the lowest height box
withoutbeing blocked bytapingheadmovement.
Mounting location and adjustment will vary with
each application (See Figures 2-14).
Important: Do not remove the VHB™tape liner
to mount the box present sensor
brackets rst determine the sensor
beam location.
3) Connect the box present sensor into the box
present control cable and turn power on.
4) Attach the sensor and reector to the brackets.
Whenever possible place the reector/bracket
assembly on the operator side of the machine
and sensor/bracket assembly on the opposite
side. This will reduce the chance of faults
caused by contacting and possibly altering the
sensor alignment.
Note: In certain applications the sensor and or
reector can be attached directly to the
case sealer. The reector can be removed
from the bracket and attached using the
VHB™ tape supplied in this kit (i.e. 800
Series).
5) Move a box to the sensor location to turn on
(i.e. primary sensor location in front of cuto
bracket or alternate as shown in Figure 2-15).
6) Position the Reector and sensor brackets on
opposite sides of the machine close to the nal
position.

Warning
• To reduce the risk associated with
pinches, entanglement and
hazardous voltage:
−Turn electrical supply oand
disconnect before performing any
adjustments, maintenance or servicing
the machine or taping heads.
