1-2. INTRODUCTION
1-2-1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The J141-214A DigiPackⅡis a user friendly, high performance 100 Point Digital Blow Molding Parison Wall
Thickness controller producing lighter, stronger containers at increased production rates.
A properly installed and intelligently used system will deliver higher operating efficiency from your blow
molding machine as a result of faster molding cycles, shorter change over times and reduced scrap.
The DigiPackⅡsystem consists of three main components, the DigiPackⅡcontrol panel, a die gap tooling
actuator, feedback transducers to measure tooling die gap opening and in the case of accumulator based
blow molding machines, accumulator position. Together, they operate as follows:
The DigiPackⅡcontrol panel is used by the operator to control the tooling die gap opening required to
obtain a container with the desired, normally constant, wall thickness required.
The die gap tooling actuator controls the thickness of the parison at the tooling die gap in response to the
DigiPackⅡcontrol panel signals.
The DigiPackⅡcontrol panel provides an digital interface with the blow molding machine’s PLC controller,
providing information such as program end, sequential program points status etc.

When used with continuous blow molding machines, the DigiPackⅡcontrols the parison wall thickness
relative to the machine cycle time. The machine cycle starts when the parison cutoff knife cuts the parison
off. Cycle time may be determined by:
a) a fixed, operator set cycle time or,
b) an automatic cycle time, set by repeated measurement of the time between parison knife cuts or
c) using a fixed DigiPackⅡtime cycle and having the DigiPackⅡinitiate a machine function such as
closing or moving the mold.
The shape of the parison wall profile is set digitally by the operator. The size of the die gap, measured by a
die gap position transducer, is compared with the operators commanded position as set on the DigiPackⅡ
display.
The error between the operators set position and the actual position causes the servovalve to flow oil to
the actuator to reduce the position error to a very small value. This feedback process ensures that the
actual die gap follows the commanded die gap very accurately.
When used with accumulator machines, the DigiPackⅡcontrols the parison wall thickness relative to the
accumulator position as the plastic is being extruded.
As the total quantity or volume of plastic extruded is proportional to the accumulator position, then it
follows that the resulting parison wall thickness at any given point on the length of the container must be
related to the accumulator position. Given that the physical properties of the plastic and its temperature
are constant from container to container, then each container’s weight and strength will be consistent.

A potentiometer measures the accumulator position and controls the vertical axis of the program display.
The operator can also set the accumulator working stroke, Shot Size, and the desired position at the end of
the accumulator push out, Cushion the DigiPackⅡalso provides interfacing signals for these functions with
the machines PLC, which then controls motion of the accumulator.
Set up of the die gap tooling and tooling die gap actuator has been easier with simplified detection of
mandrel die zero.
Successful performance of the DigiPackⅡdepends a great deal upon how well it is installed on the machine.
By following the instructions contained in this manual it will be possible to easily install this system and
obtain many years of trouble free operation.
1-2-2. WHO CAN INSTALL THE DigiPackⅡ
The installation of the DigiPackⅡcontrol system requires the installer to be familiar with electrical wiring,
hydraulic plumbing and basic metal working. The calibration and start up of the finished system requires
some understanding of the blow molding process and use of test instruments such as a digital voltmeter.
The plumbing, wiring and bracketry should not be difficult. Most molding shop maintenance men who are
familiar with blow molding machines will have little difficulty with the help of this manual.
The system can be satisfactorily calibrated to the machine and started up without assistance or special
equipment by following the instructions in this manual.

1-2-3. INSTALLATION TIME
The time to install a DigiPackⅡvaries with the type and size of machine, mechanical constraints such as
the location of water lines and auxiliary equipment and the ability of the mechanic doing the installation.
Our experience has shown that typical maintenance men will require about 20 to 30 man hours. Smaller
machines will require less time.
Of this time, the actual machine shut down time can be held to 6 hours or less.
1-2-4. SOFTWARE UPDATE
When the Software version is upgraded, we will release new software as “DIGIPK2.FWM”. This is very easy
to upgraded, see following description.
Update Process
1. Power OFF DigiPackⅡand take out SD card from slot.
2. Save “DIGIPK2.FWM” file in to SD card with using your PC. (
Figure 1-3 )
3. Put SD card in to DigiPackⅡagain. And Power ON DigiPackⅡ.
4. While Power up process (before showing start up display, see
Figure 1-4 ), Press two keys “X10”
and ”Cursor Down ” same time. The key location, please refer to
Figure 1-33 .
5. If display indicate “Updating firmware………”, update process running.
6. Then showing startup display now, please check software version.(
Figure 1-4 )
The SD card is enclosed with DigiPackⅡ. And “DIGIPK2.FWM” is already saved in SD card, if
released new file of “DIGIPK2.FWM”, pleas overwriting new file.

1-2-5. BACKUP BATTERY
Since backup of an internal clock is using the ultra capacitor, there is no necessity for exchange.
Backup time is about three weeks.
A time display may be [----.--.-- --:--] when not turning on electricity the time of the power activation after
purchase, and for a long period of time.
In such a case, please set up the right time on F2 screen. (Reference 2-4-3. )
1-2-6. DISPLAY LIMITED INDICATION PROTECTION
DigiPackⅡ has two different level of setup display. These two different displays are divided to operation
level (F1 to F5) and setting level (F1+Set to F5+Set). And can be distinguish which level display showing
now from background color. Operation level indicate background color as Cyan” ” and setup displays
are indicated as Yellow “ ”.

DigiPackⅡ Manual, Installation and Maintenance
1-5. MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
1-5-1. GENERAL
Mounting provisions for the tooling servoactuator
should include a stable mounting platform for the
tooling actuator, a filter location which allows the
filter element to be readily replaced and mechanical
provisions allowing simple adjustment of the me-
chanical relationship between the actuator and the
die gap. “
Figure 1-6 ” shows such as a well planned
installation.
A tooling servoactuator provides a long lived solution
to the problems caused by high temperatures and
force levels. Low friction seals and strong bearings
insure long term and good tooling die gap positioning
performance. A built in position transducer provides
mechanical isolation from shocks and climbing feet. A
directly manifold servovalve is tightly coupled to the
actuator. “
Figure 1-7 ” illustrates a packaged tooling
actuator with provisions for pre-blow air.
“
Figure 1-6 ” shows a typical tooling actuator instal-
lation. A servovalve (upper right) is directly mounted
on a manifold, which in turn is attached to a tooling
actuator. Directly below is a DCDT position trans-
ducer measuring the actuator rod and die gap tooling
motion. In addition, a high pressure filter mounted
directly on the manifold provides clean oil to the
servovalve. Tooling adjustment provisions are also
shown.

1-5-2. TOOLING ADJUSTMENT
When a mold change is made, it is often necessary to
change the die gap tooling assembly. Therefore the ac-
tuator installation must provide for simple adjustment of
the die gap tooling position relative to the actuator posi-
tion. “
Figure 1-8 ” shows two possible methods of ad-
justing the positional relationship between the tooling
actuator and the die gap tooling’s closed position. Tooling
motion stops may be required to limit the forces on the die
gap tooling when the die and mandrel touch. “
Figure 1-9 ”
is a typical installation.
Some actuators with an anti-rotation
feature require the nut torque loads on the
anti-rotation device to be limited by ab-
sorbing the tightening torque with a
wrench on the actuator rod flats

Tooling stops are required to insure a die gap that cannot close on a continuous molding machine. An in-
advertent closure of the die gap could cause very high pressures in the extruder barrel and extrusion head
and result in their damage and/or failure.
The above comments must be considered for the proper installation of either a Moog supplied die gap
tooling actuator or a customer supplied actuator.
The extruder barrel and/or screw can be severely damaged if the die gap closes when the
extruder is running. A mechanical motion stop must be installed which will not allow the die
gap to close.
1-5-3. MOOG DIE GAP TOOLING ACTUATORS
The Die Gap Tooling Actuator is designed specifically to control the die gap motion in blow molding ex-
trusion heads. Their design specification includes: Low friction, Long life piston and rod seals. Graphite flake
cast iron rod bearings to absorb potential side loads and high temperatures. Provision for blow air through
the piston rod, and pre adjusted position feedback transducer.
The mounting provisions for a die gap tooling actuator must include: a strong mounting structure, provisions
for axial and parallel alignment of the tooling actuation rod (mandrel) with the die gap actuators rod, pro-
visions to allow the actuator stroke center and the tooling’s effective stroke center to coincide, tooling
motion stops to protect the tooling and/or extruder. “

1-5-4. CYLINDER INSTALLATION
1-5-5. CUSTOMER SUPPLIED CYLINDER REQUIREMENTS
The customer supplied cylinder is required to control the die gap motion in blow molding extrusion heads.
As such their purchase specification must include: Low friction, long life piston and rod seals; Robust rod
bearings capable of absorbing large potential side loads and high temperatures. A quality cylinder must be
purchased to meet these requirements.
The mounting provisions for the tooling actuator shall include: a strong mounting structure, provisions for
axial and parallel alignment of the tooling actuation rod (mandrel) with the die gap actuators rod, provisions
to allow the actuator stroke center and the tooling’s effective stroke center to coincide, tooling motion
stops to protect the tooling and/or extruder.
Some actuators with an anti-rotation feature require the nut torque loads on the anti-rotation
device to be limited by absorbing the tightening torque with a wrench on the actuator rod flats.

1-5-6. MANIFOLD
The manifold must be mounted using as close as possible to the cylinder. Ideal methods are to mount the
manifold directly on the cylinder, sealing the ports with “O” rings or to use tubing between the cylinder and
manifold.
The pressure and return connections should be straight thread fittings using an “O” ring as a seal. Tapered
thread fittings are not encouraged as they tend to leak and when they are torqued up to stop the leak, the
servovalve mounting surface is distorted, causing leakage at the servovalve-manifold seal. Straight thread
fittings using “O” rings do not leak or cause mounting surface distortion.
Should tapered thread fittings be used, ONLY Teflon tape can be used on the tapered threads as a sealant.
The Teflon tape must not cover the last two threads at the smaller diameter portion of the thread. Any
other material will cause eventual contamination problems.
“
Figure 1-9 ” shows two possible methods of adjusting the positional relationship between the tooling ac-
tuator and the tooling die gap closed position. Tooling motion stops may be required to limit the forces on
the die gap tooling when the die and mandrel touch. “
Figure 1-10 ” is a typical installation.
Tooling motion stops may also be required to insure a die gap opening on a continuous molding machine. An
inadvertent closure of the die gap could cause very high pressures in the extruder barrel and extrusion
head and result in their damage and/or failure. The above comments must be considered for the proper
installation of either a Moog supplied die gap tooling actuator or a customer supplied actuator.
1-5-7. SERVOVALE MOUNTING
The servovalve is mounted to a manifold with four mounting
screws and using four “O” rings to seal the Pressure, Return
(Tank), and the two Cylinder hydraulic connections.
The “O” ring seal between the servovalve and manifold depends
upon the servovalve mounting manifold surface flatness to insure
that there are no oil leaks. This surface must be flat within
0.025mm and have a √32 RMS finish.
Two servovalves mounting patterns are available: a Cetop 5, NG
10 or a Ø22,2mm, Moog 76 port circle.
1-5-8. TOOLING ADJUSTMENT
When a mold change is made, it is often necessary to change the
die gap tooling assembly. Therefore the actuator installation must
provide for simple adjustment of the die gap tooling position
relative to the actuator position.
The extruder barrel and/or screw can be severely damaged if the tooling die gap closes when
the extruder is running. A mechanical motion stop must be installed which will not allow the
die gap to close.
