SMIPACK S.p.A. in function of the
means of transport and of the type of
products to be shipped utilizes
packagings adequate to guarantee the
integrity and preservation during
transportation. It is recommended to
handle with great care the machine
during transport and positioning. The
forwarder is responsible for every

Use and maintenance manual FP560 - FP560A - FP870A
The lifting of the machine module must be carried out by means of hoisting systems operating
from below; due to the packaging modalities, it is not possible to use hoisting systems operating
from above. Lift the machine from the longer side and adjust the forks of the forklift at the
maximum distance from each other.
ATTENTION!
Before handling make sure that the hoisting equipment are suitable to lift the load that
has to be handled.
In the case of long storing, place the machine in a sheltered environment with a temperature
between -15°C and +55°C degree of humidity, variable between 30% and 90% without
condensation.
2.4 ASSEMBLY OF THE REEL HOLDER
2.5 POSITIONING OF ROLLER UNIT FP560 AND FP560A
Once the machine has been unpacked assemble the roller conveyor belt:
• Insert the roller conveyor belt in the attachments of the conveyor belt 1and lock it with the
roller 2in the special guides 3.
• In assembly phase do not push the roller conveyor belt sideways or the attachments could
be damaged.
For the positioning of the reel holder operate in the following way:
• Position the reel holder 1in its guides.
• Pass over the retainer 2using a screwdriver.
Fig. 2.4.1
Fig. 2.5.1

14
2.6 POSITIONING OF ROLLER UNIT FP870A
Once the machine has been unpacked assemble the roller conveyor belt:
• Insert the roller conveyor belt in the attachments of the conveyor belt 1and lock it with the
special clamping-screws 2.
• In assembly and disassembly phase do not push the roller conveyor belt sideways as the
attachments could be damaged.
2.7 DEMOLITION AND DISMANTLING
ATTENTION!
The machine does not contain dangerous components or substances that require
particular removal procedures. Regarding the elimination of the various materials, it is
necessary to follow the regulations of the Country in which the tunnel will be dismantled.
2.8 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
All operations for the connection to the mains must be carried out with no
voltage applied to the machine.
In the case which someone wants access to the electrical system, remember to
turn off the power supply and wait at least 5 minutes before operating.
EARTHENING IS COMPULSORY!
The machine's connection to the mains must be carried out in thorough compliance
with the regulations of the user's country.
Make sure that the frequency and voltage of the machine's power supply (as indicated
on the nameplate to be found on the rear of the machine) correspond to the mains'.
Fig. 2.6.1

15
Use and maintenance manual FP560 - FP560A - FP870A
2.9 TECHNICAL DATA FOR THE ELECTRIC CONNECTION
2.10CONDITIONS OF USE
Make sure that there is enough space for easy application and maintenance.
THE MACHINE NEEDS AN INSTALLATION IN A CLOSED AND WELL AIRED
SURROUNDING, WHERE THERE ARE NOT ANY EXPLOSION OR FIRE DANGEROUS.
THE MINIMUM LIGHTING MUST BE 300 lux.
Make sure that there is enough space for easy application and maintenance.
Position the machine in the planned space with no humidity, flammable materials, gas, and
explosives and making sure that it is level on the floor.
The rated temperatures can vary from +10°C to +40°C, with relative humidity from 30% to 80%
without condensation.
The level of the continuos acoustic radiation pressure that is carefully estimated in each
point does not exceed 70 dB.
IP class rating = IP22
ATTENTION!
The pressure and the plate acoustical power of the machine can change depending on
the material of containers to be packaged. Therefore, the user must perform an
assessment on the noise exposure of his personnel in accordance with the types of
packages worked, so as to equip his operators with suitable personal protection
equipment.
3. INFORMATION ON THE MACHINE
3.1 MACHINE PERFORMANCE
The SMIPACK S.p.A. packaging machine is equipped with a simple but complete control panel
connected to a microprocessor system guaranteeing high level performance and great
autonomy to the operator.
The machine can produce two types of packaging:
• non rigid packets (only the sealing of the film edges is performed)
• Clinging packs (besides the sealing process, the shrinking of the film is executed on the
product with the help of the tunnel)

3.2 AUTOMATED OPERATION OF THE MACHINE
The FP560A and FP870A
machines are equipped with an
automatism that activates the
closingmovement ofthesealing
frame when the push-button
[START] is pressed. At the The
first working phase occurs by
means of a motor that adjusts
the lowering and rising of the
frame. To stop this movement
act on the push-button [STOP].
To return to the beginning of the
working phase, disconnect the
push-button [STOP] and
press . The frame's
movement times are
electronically managed by
software that also allows you to
change the sealing pressure.
The final phase " product
ejection" is common in the models FP560 and FP870A and occurs by means of a motorized
product carrier belt that replaces the operator in the final phase.
This automatism reduces the packaging cycle time and increases the hourly productivity.
3.3 MACHINE IDENTIFICATION
Fig. 3.3.1
On the rear of every machine is applied a
nameplate showing the EC marking, the main
technical data such as model, serial n., power,
etc., to be notified to the builder in case of
problems.
3.4 SEALING
Fig. 3.4.1
Sealingand cuttingare bothofthe impulsetype,
automatically adjusted by the electronic board.
The sealing blade is brought to a temperature
that melts the film and the pressure between the
cutting edge and the lower contrast provokes
the separation of the two edges of the film.
