Infeed Section

          

 

Easy Feeding – Operator only needs to feed one 15-up Batch every 7 seconds.

Infeed Sensors
  1. Detects Product is in position before starting another cycle, and/or
  2. If a mark is placed on your bottom sheet, it will check to be sure the operator has separated the stack in the proper place.

1ST WAY CUT & REGISTER AREA

In this example, we are cycling forward 3 inches, then making a 1ST WAY CUT. The result is a strip that is 3-up, and measures 3”(7.62cm) x 18 ¼”(46.35cm) – see diagram, below.

The 3-up strip is then registered and squared, front and back and side to side.

After the strip leaves the 1st Way Cut area, it is monitored by the SKEW DETECTORS each time it has completed a cycle forward. If a skew is detected at any time, the machine will STOP before damage to the product occurs.

Wire Stitching


Hohner Stitching Heads
(6 shown for this 3-up Example)

The STITCHER will insert six staples (A), then shift over to insert six more staples (B) in each 3-up strip. See Diagram below.

After the strip leaves the stitch area, it passes under the STITCH COUNTER. If a missed stitch is detected, the machine will automatically stop, a missed stitch signal will come up on the operator’s screen.

Tape Application

          


  1. The Bielomatik is presently set up to apply a ¾” (1.90cm) wide pressure sensitive TAPE around the spine of the booklet, covering the staples.
  2. It only applies tape if it “sees” product.
  3. A pair of sensors are used to ensure tape was applied and will notify the operator if it was missed.

2nd WAY CUT with optional TRIM REMOVAL SYSTEM

          

 

The 3-up strip has now been stapled and tape has been applied. The 3-up strip is next automatically transferred to the 2nd CUTTING SECTION, where 1/8” Trim is cut and removed via a high-suction vacuum unit. The strip is cut into three finish sized booklets measuring 3”(7.62cm) x 6”(15.24cm)

Auto Stack Feed Product Boards

Stack your PRODUCT BOARDS here and they will automatically feed into the stack area.

Stack and Discharge

After all 15 booklets are in their proper drop bins, all 15 booklets are dropped at the same time.


When desired stack count is achieved,
15 Finished Stacks are automatically ejected.

Ultra Sonic Pile Height checks each 15 stacks to verify every stack is the same height as they are ejected, and a camera at Outfeed monitors the stack discharge area, which can be viewed on the operator’s Touch Screen Panel.

Touch Screen Controls

This Bielomatik binder has been upgraded to use state-of-the-art Windows-based touch screen controls. The touch screen uses GE Fanuc Cimplicity software in conjunction with a GE Fanuc 90-30 series PLC This along with a machine timing encoder provides for increased accuracy, reliability and customization of the binding process. All upgraded components are readily available through standard distributor outlets.

Integrated Diagnostics

       

All sensors used in the upgraded system are of extremely high reliability. If a problem does occur, maintenance personnel can easily view all PLC inputs and outputs on the touch screen. This greatly simplifies troubleshooting of electrical problems as each input sensor or output coil/relay can be monitored or tested individually.

Product Monitoring System

From the moment the operator places a pad onto the infeed table until it is ejected as a finished product, it is monitored by the state-of-the-art sensors and control software. Damage to the product is greatly reduced or eliminated by detectors which will halt the machine if a product becomes skewed. Product quality is constantly monitored by a stitch detector and tape sensors which will stop the process and notify the operator should a stitch or tape be missing from the product in process. This allows the operator to correct the problem and continue without loss of product.

Stacker / Delivery camera

A digital cam mounted at the discharge area is displayed on screen at the operator feed station. This allows the operator to easily monitor the product as it is ejected without leaving the infeed station. This reduces operating costs since an additional person is not required to monitor the pads as they are ejected.
