Welcome
Now that you have decided to upgrade your packaging facilities with the T-1000-S14 Advanced Poly-
Bagger™ from Advanced Poly-Packaging, Inc., we thank you for selecting our equipment, materials and service. Where labor reduction and fast changeover are important, the T-1000-S14 uses Advanced Poly-
Bags (pre-opened bags on rolls) manufactured by Advanced Poly-Packaging, Inc. Extensively equipped with several "built-in," ready-to-use options, the T-1000-S14 can package various industrial, medical, molded and food products. With bag sizes that range from 4" x 3" to 11" x 16" and mil thickness from 1 mil to 4 mils, we hope the T-1000-S14 will meet all of your bagging needs. T-1000 Advanced Poly-
Bagger™ is a general-purpose bagging system designed for manual or automatic packaging of a variety of products.
Overview
The T-1000-S14 Advanced Poly-Bagger™ is a general-purpose bagging system designed for manual and automatic packaging of a variety of products. The T-1000-S14 is designed to lower your packaging costs with high speeds, versatility, reliability and simplicity.
High Speeds: Indexes, opens, seals and tears off a bag at very high rates of speed. Actual packaging speed depends on the bag size, equipment options, product characteristics and loading method.
Versatility: Mobile on rugged castors for packaging at any production station in your facility. Ideal for numerous short runs with virtually no production loss for job changeovers since all that is required is a roll change and recalling the bag settings from memory.
Reliability: Crafted from the highest quality components and materials to withstand the most rigorous manufacturing environment. Sturdy mounts with castors and a rugged frame guarantee long life and usefulness with minimal maintenance.
Simplicity: A user-friendly, menu-driven touch screen program allows operators to set up the bag, options and auxiliary equipment, save settings in memory and recall those settings for repeat runs.
Standard Features
The machine comes standard with the following features:
Anti-Jam Device : Detects rigid objects of at least 3/8" to safeguard the equipment and product. During the loading and sealing operation, this device will automatically reverse the pressure bar and discontinue cycle operation if an obstruction is detected.
Auxiliary Automatic Operation – Integrates automatically to vibratory counters, scales and other infeed equipment.
Castors Assembly : Rugged castors are standard for plant mobility.
7
Communications Ports : Provides for auxiliary communications and screen data transfer.
Continuous Strip Option : Leave bags connected in an "endless" strip or a predetermined number of strips of sealed bags.
Counters – Preset, Total and Maintenance counters are provided.
Energy Conservation and Component Saver : To extend its life and conserve energy in your plant, the
T-1000-S14 is programmed to sequentially shut down components when not in use for extended periods of time. Electric current to the heater bar will discontinue and place the T-1000-S14 in Stop mode during a preset period of nonuse. Shortly thereafter, air flow will be shut off, preserving compressed air. A screen saver is also provided.
Internal (PLC) and External (USB) Recipe Management System : Stores up to twenty-four recipe settings internally, or hundreds of recipes externally. Optional Ethernet card can allow for remote recipe management.
Maintenance Counter / Chart : Periodically check this counter (total machine cycles) to determine preventative maintenance and component inspection intervals.
Pass Code Protection : Settings screens can be protected from alterations by unauthorized individuals.
Once turned on, this function acts as a “screen save” feature. After a preset amount of time, the pass code screen will be displayed from the Bagger Operation screen. Factory settings are protected by a Level 1 pass code and should only be accessed by authorized maintenance personnel.
Predetermining Counter : Preset the T-1000-S14 to stop after a predetermined number of bags have been packaged. Set the quantity of finished bags to complete a work order or fill a shipping container. Once the work order is complete or the container is full, the T-1000-S14 stops to alert the operator to begin the next work order or to push aside the box and begin filling another. Pressing anywhere on the screen resets the counter and starts the bagging operation with minimum delay.
Totalizing Counter : Reset this counter at the beginning of each shift or day to record packaging production over a period of time.
System Integration
The T-1000-S14 is preprogrammed to integrate automatically with major brand vibratory counters and feeders, weigh scales, volumetric fillers, auger fillers and infeed conveyors. As an OEM for numerous equipment manufacturers of infeed systems, we offer the best available system with the T-1000-S14
Advanced Poly-Bagger as the integral packaging component. However, APPI cannot be responsible for the successful integration of third party equipment, unless approved and integrated by APPI.
FREE CONSULTATION AND PRODUCT EVALUATION: We invite you to call to discuss your packaging requirements and our free product packaging analysis.

Available Options
Although the T-1000-S14 is equipped with many "built-in" options, various auxiliary options and equipment can easily be added for special purpose packaging. The following options may be purchased from Advanced Poly-Packaging, Inc:
AF-10 Accumulating Funnel : A special purpose funnel that collects and holds product until it is ready to be dropped. A funnel to help contain the product can also be inserted.
Bag Deflator : This option quickly mounts to the sealer bar and squeezes the air from the bag while sealing.
Bag in Bag Option : A conveyor feeds bagged product to a second bagger to be bagged again.
Bag Out Sensor : If the bag material ends, a message will be displayed indicating that the machine is out of bags or that a threading or web breakage issue has occurred.
Base Height Adjustment : An electronic mechanism that raises or lowers the base of the bagger, allowing for more versatility and convenience. Without this option, the operator must raise or lower the bagger manually.
BO-20 Bag Open Detector : This option will detect whether or not a bag is blown open, or whether or not a funnel is inserted into the bag for validation that the bag is ready to receive product.
BO-30 Bag Opening Device : This device enters the bag with one or more “fingers” and pulls the bag open to a stop .
BV-10 Barcode Verifier : Verifies that a barcode is readable. If no barcode is detected, or if a barcode is not correctly formatted (as per software settings in the barcode verifier), then a “No Read” message will be displayed.
CF-10 Counting Funnel : This option automatically cycles the bagger when a preset number of parts have fallen through the funnel.
CS-10 Compartment Seal : Seals the bag twice to create two separate compartments within the same bag.
DF-10 Diverting Funnel : This feature is used to count bags from the bagger and divert them for further packaging operations, including counting into cartons.
Dual Printing : Special programming allows the T-1000-S14 to operate with both the Next Bag Out printer and an offline printer in order to print on both sides of the bag. The offline printer is mounted upside down on the back of the bagger.
9
E-Stop : This option can be used to stop the cycle operation of the T-1000-S14 and possibly other auxiliary infeed or outfeed equipment purchased with the T-1000-S14.
FS-10 Flat Seal Assembly : Helps decrease/eliminate wrinkles in the seal by pulling the sides of the bag.
Increases bag integrity.
FS-30 Heavy Duty Flat Seal Assembly (Drop Frame) : Uses two movements to further assist in flattening the film to decrease wrinkles or folds in the seal.
LAN Connection : Provides for Ethernet communication.
LC-10 Light Safety Curtain : If funnels are removed, APPI highly recommends the addition of this option to prevent injuries. This option, when activated, prevents outputs (voltage) to valves that cause the seal bar to activate. Additionally, the stepper motor stops when blocked.
LS-10 Load / Support Shelf : Provides support for heavier packages when dropped into bag. Sizes: 10",
15" or 20" long.
MV-10 Seal Validation : Additional components provide a secondary means of detecting a failure or out of range condition for components that affect seal quality.
NBO Next Bag Out Printer : An inline printer installed within the T-1000-S14 capable of printing the next bag out in the bagging sequence. This feature prevents mislabeling of pharmaceuticals, prescriptions or high cost items and also allows part numbers or other printing information to be changed with every bag.
OFS-10 Output Fault Signal with SL-10 Stack Light : For automatic bagging operations with third party or production equipment, this signal provides a fault when the bagger is inoperative (due to out of bag conditions or other faults).
PB-20 Dual Palm Buttons : Decreases the possibility of injury to hands and fingers. The operator must push two buttons simultaneously to actuate the seal bar.
Roll-a-Print 1400 or 2800 Single or Dual Thermal Inline Printer : Prints bar codes and graphics directly to the surface of the front or both the front and back of the bag.
Ti-1000 Thermal Transfer Inline Printer : Prints bar codes, graphics, etc. by downloading preformatted labels, generated via label software. (PC or Terminal and software required)
TS-10 Trim Seal Assembly : Trims excess film from the bag above the seal to enhance the appearance of the package. Great for retail products.
Twin-Seal TM : Seal the bag a second time, 3/8" from the first seal, for additional bag integrity.
10
UC-2400 Vibratory Parts Counter : Automatic parts counter feeds fasteners, electronic components, injected molded parts and many other types of product, then drops the final count into the bag, carton or infeed conveyor.
UF-2000 Takeaway Conveyor : Removes packaged product to a packing station or directly feeds a carton or table, conveying the product from floor level. The conveyor fits perfectly underneath the
T-1000-S14 and takes the product away. Small, lightweight and equipped with castors, use this conveyor anywhere in the plant. Designed for 24 hour / 7 days a week operation.
UF-5000 Infeed Conveyor : Kit packaging infeed conveyor. Instead of loading parts directly into the bag, load parts into compartments on the conveyor. Packaging kits can be loaded into the compartments by hand or automatically with parts or scales.
US-4000 Check Weigh Scales : When you must guarantee the contents of the bags or kits, APPI offers check weigh scales with incredible accuracy, speed and reliability. A history of weights is standard, along with job/recipe saves.
US-5000 / 7000 / 9000 Semiautomatic (US-5000) or Automatic Scale (US-7000 and US-9000 ): Feeds a weighed/counted batch of product into bags.
Other options may have been added since the date this list was printed. Please call for additional or custom options pricing.

Chapter Summary
This chapter describes procedures to receive and set up the T-1000-S14, including uncrating instructions, environmental, air and power requirements, risks, required safety precautions, quick start procedures assembly instructions and height adjustments. Additionally, this chapter describes safety precautions, how to power on the T-1000-S14 and how to properly thread bags through the machine.
Safety, Risks
The equipment has been designed with features to reduce the possibility of injury. Despite safety precautions, operators may receive lacerations, minor burns or crushed or broken bone injuries if coming in contact with the heater bar or other moving components. Please carefully read the following precautions to operate the equipment properly and avoid injury.
Although no special personal protective equipment is required to operate the equipment, eye protection, gloves or other protection should be worn depending on the characteristics of product being packaged or the method of loading the product.
Please carefully read the following precautions to operate the equipment properly and avoid injury:
CAUTION: Initial Setup of the machine must be performed by Specialized Personnel. Qualified
Service Engineers should uncrate, assemble (if required), test and connect power sources, test the equipment for proper operation and otherwise setup the equipment for use.
CAUTION: Maintenance must be performed by Specialized Personnel. Qualified Service Engineers must remove guards or covers to gain access to electrical or mechanical areas.
CAUTION: To avoid injury do not reach under the equipment or guards. Do not place hands or fingers in the seal area, near the seal or heater bar, load shelf, or other moving components.
CAUTION: To avoid injury, do not operate the equipment if funnels, guards or covers or other access panels have been removed.
If any of these safety measures have been removed or modified or if any openings have been increased, the operator will have access to moving components and extreme temperature areas that can cause crush, cut or burn injuries to hands or fingers.
CAUTION: To avoid injury, do not reach under guards or elsewhere under the machine.
CAUTION: Do not remove or loosen fasteners on the frame. If loosened the equipment may drop suddenly causing injury or damage to the machine.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to adjust the height without assistance and without supporting the weight of the machine. Attempting to make a height adjustment without assistance could cause the machine to drop suddenly, causing severe injury. APPI offers several optional accessories that can reduce the risk of injury during height adjustments. These accessories include carts, motorized height adjustment components and stabilizing bars.
15
CAUTION: Ensure that any height adjustments allow for sufficient movement of the operator.
Improper height adjustments could negatively affect operator movement, causing strain, added stress, discomfort and fatigue.
CAUTION: Be careful when opening the seal frame as it may drop suddenly causing injury or damage to the equipment.
CAUTION: To avoid injury, avoid coming in contact with pinch points including rollers, automatic funnel doors or other moving components.
CAUTION: To avoid injury, avoid contact with Roller "Fingers" as they may be sharp.
CAUTION: Exercise care when adjusting or relocating the touch screen. Movement of the touch screen could cause unexpected movement of the machine and injury to the operator.
CAUTION: If control or air pressure settings are set too high, higher noise levels may result from increased part on part contact or part on machinery contact. Limit these settings and add guards or covers to reduce airborne noise.
CAUTION: Exercise extreme care when clearing jams, replacing materials, changing controls or mechanical settings, and cleaning internal parts. Be sure to de-energize energy sources prior to removing guarding. Failure to do so may result in unexpected movement or flying objects, which could cause crush, cut or eye injuries.
CAUTION: Maintenance must be performed by specialized personnel. Qualified service engineers must remove guards or covers to gain access to electrical or mechanical areas.
CAUTION: Maintenance must be performed regularly to ensure that the machine is operating properly and to protect against injury. Routine maintenance includes: periodic inspections, the replacement of worn or damaged components, the tightening of loose bolts or components, and regular cleaning and adjustments. Contact APPI and/or service centers for service support if there is not sufficient maintenance staff at your facility to perform regular maintenance.
Installation Procedures
The T-1000-S14 is transported as a single unit in a custom crate designed to protect the machine during shipment. It is shipped completely assembled except for a few items that are easily attached during installation. A final adjustment is also necessary to ensure proper placement of the touch screen, dancer assembly, foot switch, funnel and guards.
Unpacking : After removing the stretch wrapping, remove the outer crate from the skid that contains the
T-1000-S14. Unfasten the base support brace from the skid. Carefully lower the T-1000-S14 from the skid. Transport the T-1000-S14 to the operating location prior to placing the touch screen in position and unfastening the dancer assembly.
16
Operating Environment : The T-1000-S14 should be placed in an area free of excessive heat, moisture, dirt and dust. Operating room temperature should range from 50°F to 100°F (10°C to 87.77°C).
Note on Adjustments to the T-1000-S14
Upon receipt, it is not unusual for the T-1000-S14 to be out of alignment due to shipping and excessive handling. Unless physically damaged, the T-1000-S14 will function properly after minor adjustments are made. Refer to Chapter 4 for information on adjustments to the T-1000-S14.
Air and Power Requirements
Power Requirements : Provisions must be made for 115 VAC, 50/60 Hz line current with ground. The full load current for the T-1000-S14 is 12 Amps. APPI recommends a dedicated 20 Amp circuit for the T-
1000-S14.
Note: A qualified electrician should ensure that voltages are as required, amperage is sufficient, power outlets are the required 115 VAC and power outlets are properly grounded before hooking up the
power. If the unit is not properly grounded, it will produce a shock and will not function properly.
Air Requirements : At least 2 CFM free air is required, regulated to 60 PSI (413.68 kPa). Air should be dry and oil-free.
Note: Running the T-1000-S14 at a higher PSI setting than 60 PSI (413.68 kPa) will cause excessive wear and may cause damage to components on the machine or parts being packaged. The anti-jam function may also be adversely affected.
Assembly Instructions
Choose an operating location considering traffic flow, availability of bag supplies, supply of product to be packaged, takeaway of finished packages, placement of auxiliary infeed equipment and placement of takeaway conveyor(s). At the operating location, the first step is to remove any inner packaging, banding or wires.
Touch Screen Assembly / Position : The touch screen has been secured for transportation in a "face-in" position with protective wrapping. Holding the touch screen to prevent it from falling, loosen the set screw located in the clamp collar at the top of the upper “T” column. Pull the shaft from the clamp collar approximately 6" (15.24 cm) and tighten the collar. Holding the touch screen module, loosen the “ball”
clamp lever and position the touch screen. See Figure 2-1.
CAUTION: To avoid damage to the touch screen module, hold the screen until it is in the desired position and then be sure the screws and ball clamp lever are securely tightened.
Dancer Assembly : The dancer assembly, located on the stand at the rear of the T-1000-S14, is secured with tape strapping during shipment. After the removal of the strapping, the dancer should be checked to ensure it will rotate freely in a semicircular path. The shaft assembly may then be inserted into the dancer frame brackets so it is over the brake stop for tension.
17
CAUTION: The seal bar should not come in contact with the funnel during sealing. Raise the funnel to avoid contact.
CAUTION: To avoid injury, do not operate the T-1000-S14 without a funnel, guard or covers properly positioned. APPI offers a variety of funnels and chutes. Guarding may need to be added to prevent operators from reaching in, around or under the guard or funnels.
CAUTION: To avoid injury, do not reach underneath guards while the machine is plugged in.
Machine Height Adjustment : The height of the T-1000-S14 is adjustable. To change the height of the machine, three people are required; two people holding the weight of the machine, and one person
loosening the two bolts located on the leg, and clamping the outer leg to the inner leg. See Figure 2-2.
Raise or lower the T-1000-S14 to the desired height, and tighten the two bolts.
CAUTION: Unless properly supported, the T-1000-S14 will drop suddenly when loosening the height adjustment bolts. This may cause damage to the machine or injury to individuals.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to adjust the height without the assistance of at least two other people supporting the weight.
Air and Power Hookup
This section describes how to hook up air and power and the air and power requirements.
Note: A qualified electrician should ensure power outlets are the required 115 VAC and properly grounded before hooking up power. If the unit is not properly grounded, it will produce a shock and the machine will not work properly.
The air supply should be fed to the T-1000-S14 with 3/8 ID flexible tubing. This tubing affixes to the coupler adapter (quick disconnect not provided). Connect the air to the regulator by holding the regulator firmly in one hand and pushing the airline connector on the male regulator connector. After connecting air, the regulator should be adjusted so the gauge reads 60 PSI (413.68 kPa). Insert the T-1000-S14 power cord into a 115 VAC, 60 Hz, grounded power outlet.

Checklist.
Bag Threading
The first step to threading the machine is to place a roll of bags on the shaft. Remove one of the chucks from the shaft by loosening the chuck knob and sliding the roll of bags over the shaft, locking the chuck pin in the small hole in the core plug. Tighten the knob. Replace the second chuck, also locking the chuck pin to the core plug.
Remove the tape from the bags so that the bags fall freely and hang down from the top of the roll towards the back of the machine. Insert the right side of the roll shaft in the right side of the shaft holder (circular holder).
Then drop the roll shaft in the slot located on the left side of the dancer assembly.
Center the bags on the shaft by loosening the chuck knobs and sliding the roll of bags, along with the chucks, to the desired location. Ensure the chuck pins remain in the core plug holes when sliding left or right. Pull the bags over the roller immediately above the dancer assembly, then down between the roll of bags and the outer dancer roller. Pull the bags around the outer dancer roller, over the rear "guide" roller and into the back of the T-1000-
S14. Push the bags at least halfway through the machine.
From the front of the T-1000-S14, lower the frame by slowly pulling the frame handle forward and downward while holding the guard assembly, supporting the weight of the seal frame assembly.
CAUTION: You must support the weight of seal assembly while lowering it with the handle. Otherwise, you may drop the seal assembly, possibly causing personal injury or damage to the equipment.
Carefully reach inside and pull the bags through the front of the T-1000-S14 so that one bag is centered on the roller. Ensure only one bag extends through the front of the machine. Slowly raise the frame by pulling forward and upward on the handle while holding the bag in position. Holding the guide roller shaft, slide the roller guides approximately 1/8" (0.31 cm) from the sides of the bag to assist the tracking of the web of bags.
CAUTION: Roller “fingers” may be sharp. To avoid injury when reaching into the T-1000-S14, ensure that you do not come in contact with the roller fingers.
Note: The roller guides are for fine adjustments only, after proper tracking has been achieved. If the web of bags is not properly tracking, make proper adjustments. If not tracking properly, the web of bags may "ride" up the side of the guides, causing the bags to fold over.
Two Threading Diagrams are available based on the design of the machine, with or without a printer. See Figure
2-4 and Figure 2-5. If your machine has special features or other equipment that changes the function of the
bagger, the specific threading diagram will be included with that particular manual or addendum. If you need further assistance with bag threading, please contact APPI Technical Support.
Cycle Operation of the T-1000-S14
If all prior installation procedures have been performed properly, the T-1000-S14 should be in its operating location with air and power connected. All guards, funnels and covers should be in position and securely fastened.
22
Locate the foot switch and plug it into the rear foot switch connector. See Figure 2-3. Press the foot switch to
index one bag through the “nip” rollers. If a foot switch is not being used, press the
Manual Cycle button. One bag should index, blow open and stop between the pressure bar and the heater bar. If the T-1000-S14 is not up to temperature, the machine will not cycle unless the RUN / SETUP button is toggled to SETUP .
If the web of bags breaks prematurely, further adjustments will be required. See Chapter 4 for troubleshooting. If one bag indexed through the machine, press the foot switch a few more times. Each previously indexed bag should detach completely from the web of bags. If the bag is not indexing and/or stopping or not tearing off properly, see Chapter 4 for troubleshooting.
Note: The web of bags may track right or left for a few feet until “settled” on the web path. The roll of bags or the roller guide may require readjustments or realignment after the first few feet of bags are indexed.
Note: If bags were delivered with the T-1000-S14 or the bag size was known to APPI, the T-1000-S14 may be ready to run. Therefore, very few changes to the Bagger Settings screen will be required.
Quick Setup Procedures
(Perform prior to operating the machine on a daily basis)
Considering that the machine has been setup by Maintenance Personnel, the following quick start procedures should be followed before daily operation of the equipment.
Power off tasks (perform these tasks prior to turning on the power):
Clean the blue rubber roller, print rollers, perforation sensor, idler rollers and product contact surfaces with a clean cotton cloth and alcohol.
Inspect the machine to ensure all guards, covers and funnels are in position.
Inspect the machine for maintenance issues and report issues such as loose or broken components, frayed wires, etc. to maintenance personnel.
Check that the air pressure is set to 60 psi (413.68 kPa).
Power on tasks (perform these tasks after cleaning and inspecting the machine)

Touch Screen Program, Overview
The Touch Screen Program is a "user-friendly" menu-driven setup and operation program. Pop-up windows are incorporated for quick and easy setting adjustments. Each time a setting is changed, the settings are saved so that if power is lost, the “job” will be recalled automatically without the need for reprogramming.
A general color scheme has been used to identify functions:
Blue: Background color. Blue is used as a background or text-only color, which when pressed typically does nothing.
Yellow: Menu buttons which will take you to other areas in the program.
Green: Setting buttons used to change settings or mode of operation.
Red: Stop, off functions or warning messages.
Figure 3 - 1
Introductory Screen
When the T-1000 is turned on, an Introductory Screen is displayed. See Figure 3 - 1. The Introduction screen is a
welcome screen, and it contains a button that will take the operator to the Operation screen. When turned on, the machine will be in Stop mode.
27
Operation Screen
Operation Screen is provided to function with Pass Code
Protection function of the machine. If the pass code function is enabled in the Technical Assistance Screen, the touch screen will default to the Operation Screen after a preset time has elapsed. This function prevents unauthorized operators from making setting changes that could affect the operation or performance of the unit. Since no settings are displayed on the Operations Screen, the operator cannot change settings
unless a pass code is enabled. See Figure 3 - 2. There are
several Operations Screens, which are selected based on the
Operation, Auxiliary and Options installed. Figure 3 - 2 is the
most basic operation screen sample.
Figure 3 - 2
Main Menu
Main Menu screen allows the operator to quickly navigate to
other areas. See Figure 3 - 3.
Mode toggle buttons are located at the top of many screens:
< Start> / <Stop> toggle button controls operation mode, the mode which enables the equipment to cycle.
< Manl>/ <Auto> toggle button activates the Automatic
(paced rate) or Auxiliary Cycle mode.
< Run> / <Setup> toggle button deactivates functions and allows cycling when not at temperature.
Setup mode stops counters, production timers and auxiliary signals so that the equipment can be operated independently in a setup mode.
Figure 3 - 3
Ready/Waiting LED (top left corner) displays “Ready” when the heater bar temperature is in the range of acceptance. “Waiting” flashes when the machine is not at temperature. Waiting pauses the operation unless in the setup mode.
Settings Screen
Settings Screen provides access to the basic machine settings. Bag size, thickness and product characteristics affect settings required for the proper operation of the
machine. See Figure 3 - 4.
All settings will be entered numerically on a keypad. To adjust any value, press the green button of the setting which you would like to change, then enter the value on the number keypad followed by the <Enter > button.
The Settings Menu is where most entries and machine operation settings will occur to setup a new bag size or to run a new product.
Figure 3 - 4
28
A.
Fill Time
The <Fill Time > button functions differently dependent upon the MODE in which the T-1000 is operating:
MANUAL, AUTOMATIC ( AUTO ) mode or AUXILIARY mode.
In the Manual mode with NO accumulating funnel, Fill Time will delay the operation from starting until this time has passed. When equipped with an accumulating funnel, Fill Time will affect the delay time before sealing, after the accumulating funnel door has closed.
In the AUTO cycle mode with no auxiliary in-feed equipment, Fill Time affects the paced rate operation. The bagger will automatically cycle with the Fill Time delaying the seal bar after the bag has been blown open. In the
AUTO mode a footswitch is not required.
CAUTION: To avoid physical harm, DO NOT cycle the equipment in the AUTO mode if the funnel, guards or covers are removed. Since the seal bar actuates automatically, operators must keep fingers, hands and other parts of the body away from the sealing mechanism and all other moving parts.
AUXILIARY cycle mode, FILL TIME displays the time which a product, automatically filled by auxiliary equipment, has to be completely settled in the bag before the seal bar is actuated.
Typical setting for manual loading with a footswitch is 0.0 seconds. Typical setting for auxiliary equipment / automatic loading is 0.5 seconds. The lower the setting, the faster the operation. However, too low of a setting could cause the seal bar to contact the product, possibly damaging the product or seal components.
B.
Air Pulse
The amount of time that a burst of air will initially blow the bag open. Wider bags and heavier gauge bags require a longer burst of air. Additionally, to increase the volume of air from the air pulse tubes, turn the Air Pulse valve counter-clockwise. Flow control valves are located on the right lower side of the seal frame assembly to increase or decrease air through the air pulse tube or blower.
Typical setting for Air Pulse is 0.2 seconds for smaller bags and 0.4 seconds for larger bags. If the index speed is lower (6-15”/Sec), the Air Pulse may need to be longer.
C.
Seal Point
Seal point is measured from the top of the bag and can be set to the desired or required location.
The proper positioning of the seal on the bag varies due to bag size and product characteristics. Wider bags or bulky products require greater sealing area. Typical settings for Seal Point: 0.8 inches for narrower bags, 1.2” mid-size widths and 1.5” for wide bags.
New Bag button is used to start an internal program which calculates an average bag length. The perf is used for registration. If a perforation is not detected, the bag will stop in the correct seal position based on the average bag length measurement. A Feed Error message will be displayed if the perf is not detected within a range of acceptance of bag length.
D.
Seal Time
Seal Time is the time the heater bar comes in contact with the rubber strip, which is mounted on the pressure bar.
Seal time is one of three critical components to obtain a good quality seal. Other critical factors include seal temperature and seal pressure. After adjusting Seal Time, test for good seals and adjust if necessary.
Typical settings for Seal Time with temperature set to 400°F is 0.3 seconds for thinner bags (1.5 mil), 0.4 seconds for medium thicknesses (2 to 3 mil) and 0.7 for heavier thicknesses (4 mil). However, the set temperature will
29
affect the required seal time. If adjusting pressure or temperature, test various seal times until satisfied with the seal quality.
E.
Reverse
The distance the bag reverses can be set to cause the perforation to break between the bags. For wider bags, the reverse distance may need to be increased. A typical setting is 1”.
F.
Blow Off
A blow off tube is provided to decrease the possibility of bags sticking to the Teflon. Increase the blow off time if bags are not falling from the machine. Typically, the blow off time is set to .15 to .25 seconds.
G.
Index Speed
Bag feeding (index) speed can be set to improve production. If bags are prematurely breaking at the perforation, reduce the index speed. For shorter bags, the speed can be significantly decreased (to 10"/Sec, for instance). The typical setting is between 15 and 25" per second.
H.
Seal Temperature
Electrical current is pulsed to the heater element to maintain a constant temperature. Waiting LED is displayed if the temperature is not within the set range. The typical temperature is setting is between 360°F and 440°F (182°C to 226°C) depending on film thickness.
Options Menu
Options that have been added to the T-1000 at the factory can be setup from the Options Screen. If options were not installed at the factory, then N/A (Not available) will be displayed to the left of each options button. Otherwise, the
button will display ON or OFF. See Figure 3 - 5 and Figure 3
- 6.
Note: If options are added in the field, a pass code is required to enable use of the option. Contact APPI for pass codes. Options which have been purchased separately must be installed by Specialized Maintenance Personnel.
Figure 3 - 5
Note: Valve # X indicates the Valve Station number assigned to this option. Valve #0 indicates that no valve is assigned to this option. The option will not operate unless a
Valve Station number is assigned, greater than 0.
The following sections describe the settings for optional equipment. If your T-1000 is not equipped with these options, please disregard these sections. Most of the listed options are not standard and must be purchased separately.
Setting changes require testing prior to beginning production.
Figure 3 - 6
Due to specialized nature of some options or if your machine has custom programming, settings descriptions may not be included in this manual. Please contact Advanced Poly for special instructions.
30
LS-10 Load Shelf
This option is used as a support shelf for the product to avoid the bag from prematurely tearing off at the perforation when the product is inserted in the bag. The Load Shelf allows the product to drop onto the shelf relieving the
pressure on the bottom of the bag. See Figure 3 - 7.
To turn ON the load shelf, press the <Load Shelf > menu option and press the <ON > button. The Load Shelf down time is the length of time the shelf is in the down position.
Note: Increase time for longer bags.
Figure 3 - 7
FS-10 Flat Seal Assembly
Fingers enter the bag immediately before sealing to pull the front/back layer of bag together, decreasing wrinkles or
folds. Figure 3 - 8.
To turn the Flat Seal Assembly ON, press the <Flat Seal> button on the Options menu and toggle ON the ON/OFF button. Use the <Setup > button to make it easier to mechanically adjust the fingers along the front plate slots on the T-1000. Once the mechanical adjustment is complete, press <ON > and <AUTO > for normal operation of the flat seal assembly. In the Auto mode, the option will operate automatically.
Figure 3 - 8
FS-30 Heavy-Duty Flat Seal Assembly
There are two separate motions:
1.
Fingers enter the bag and start to pull the sides of the bag outward
2.
Both of the fingers extend sideways with regulated pressure to pull the sides outward, further decreasing the opportunity for folds or wrinkles in the seal area.
In Setup Mode, the button operations are:
•
<OFF> Position: Fingers Up and Out
•
<SETUP> Position: Fingers Down and Out
•
<HOME> Position: Fingers Down and In
Figure 3 - 9
During Seal Cycle, fingers go to the “OFF” position when Seal Time starts, and before Index. This is to prevent
fingers from interfering with next bag moving forward. See Figure 3 - 9.
31
CS-10 Compartment Seal
Seal the bag a second time to create a separate compartment in the bag. This option is useful to segregate different parts
or protect damage caused from part contact. See Figure 3 -
10.
To start, set the First Seal Point by pressing the <Seal
Point > button and typing in the value on the number keypad. Adjust the first seal point until the desired location is achieved. Next, turn the option ON by toggling ON the
<ON> / <OFF> button. Then, adjust the second seal point by pressing <2 nd Seal > and entering a value in the number
Figure 3 - 10 keypad. Adjust the value of the second seal point until the desired position is achieved. Larger parts should be loaded first, in the larger, lower compartment.
TS-10 Twin Seal Feature
Special programming is available to seal the bag twice, which increases the integrity of the bag. The Twin Seal setting can be adjusted on the Bagger Factory Settings screen. To turn on the Twin Seal option, press the <Twin Seal > menu option and press <Activate Option >
, see Figure 3 - 11. The second seal
should be very close to the first. If your machine does not include this feature, contact APPI for purchasing information.
Note: The Seal Point value on the Bagger Settings Screen may need decreased to allow space for two seals on the same
bag.
Note: Weight of the product, special load shelves or other options, funneling and bag size will affect the operation of this option. Contact APPI Sales Support for more information.

CF-10 Counting Funnel
This option is useful to automatically cycle the bagger when a preset number of parts have fallen through the
funnel. See Figure 3 - 13. To turn ON the option, press the
toggle button to ON. Press the <Reset > button to reset the count to the pre-set value.
Parts must have separation to be counted accurately through the eye. If two parts fall at the same time, they may be counted as one.
DOUBLE COUNT
Figure 3 - 13
Turning the Double Count feature ON will provide a more accurate count if two parts fall through the eye at the same time. The sensor will add a count if the maximum size is exceeded. Turning the Double Count OFF , the maximum setting is always zero. Turning OFF the Double Count feature may cause an over count of bagged product.
EYE TEST
Parts length test: (Eye Test) with the option ON, go to the
Eye Test Screen and press the <Reset> button.
Press the <Stop > top mode button. Then, drop parts
(samples) individually through the photo sensor / funnel.
The Min and Max values will change as you drop parts through the eye. If parts will be fed automatically, parts should pass through the eye as they would if feeding automatically. See
Figure 3 - 14.
Min and Max Settings and Time Out setting: These settings will be set automatically based on the “sample” parts values.
Figure 3 - 14
Settings can be fine-tuned by manually entering the settings on the Setup screen.
Press the <Accept> button after dropping many “sample” parts. If the Min / Max values continue to change, continue dropping samples until the values do not change. Then press the “Accept” button and return to the
Counting Funnel screen.
Test by dropping one part at a time ensuring that the count increments by a value of one. If not counting correctly, return to the Eye Test screen, or change the Min / Max settings manually.
If the eye is blocked for an extended period of time (parts jam), the machine will stop and a message will be displayed.
33
BO-30 Bag Opening Device
This device enters the bag with one or more “fingers” and then pulls and holds the bag open. Air can also be shut off at
this point. See Figure 3 - 15.
To turn ON this option, press the Toggle button to <ON>.
Down Delay is a delay time before the finger will attempt to enter the bag, after it is initially blown open. A typical value is 0.7 seconds.
Close Delay is the amount of time, in seconds, after the fingers have entered the bag, before the fingers will pull the bag to the gripper point. A typical value is 0.5 seconds.
Figure 3 - 15
Ready Delay The amount of time, in seconds, it takes the fingers to cycle before the machine looks for an error.
Note: It is very important that Ready Delay is set correctly, as the entire operation of the machine is affected by this setting. If Ready Delay is too short, the machine could drop the product before it confirms the bag opening. The bag will not be ready and an error will occur. If Ready Delay is too long,
the machine will cycle slower and there will be a loss of production.
Fill Time is the amount of time, in seconds, that an output will be sent to an auxiliary piece of equipment, after the bag has been opened and the opening validated. A typical value is 0.5 seconds.
Next Bag toggle button can be turned on to automatically reject an empty bag after failed attempts to open the bag. Bag will not be sealed if rejected by the bag open validation.
Blower During Loading toggle button turns off air if set to “OFF”.
BO Cycle button allows you to test cycle the Bag Opening Device alone, without initiating other equipment or the
T-1000 seal operation.
LC-10 Light Curtain
This option is used as a safety device to disable air power
when the active area is obstructed. See Figure 3 - 16 and
Figure 3 - 17.
CAUTION: To avoid injury, do not reach under guards.
This may defeat the safety feature of the LC-10 Light

BO-20 Bag Open Detector
This photo optic, closed contact sensor detects the opening or presence of bag material. This option will detect whether or not a bag is blown open or whether or not a funnel is inserted into the bag for validation that the bag is ready to receive product. The Bag Open Detector is valuable for an automatic operation to decrease the chance of product falling on the floor. To turn this option on, toggle the ON / OFF button to ON. See
Figure 3 - 19 .
The Bag Open Detector screen features two LEDs:
•
Blocked
: Illuminates when the sensor detects a Figure 3 - 19 blockage.
•
Latched
: Illuminates to indicate the sensor detected the bagger is latched.
Detect Time : The time allotted for the sensor to detect the bag before stopping the machine.
Min Time : The minimum amount of time, in seconds, the sensor has to detect the bag. A message will be displayed if the bag fails to open .
TIZ RAP / Accumulator
This hang-behind printer option is equipped with a festoon to collect bags that have already been printed on as they wait to go through the bagger. If this option is included on your machine, please refer to the Ti-1000Z / Ti-
1000RAP / T-1000-S14NBO Printer Manual for more details.
AF-10 Accumulating Funnel
This special purpose funnel has several functions: 1) to accumulate a product before dropping the full contents of the
Accumulator into the bag, 2) to contain a product while the equipment is sealing, 3) to insert the funnel into the bag and keep the product away from the sealing portion of the bag, and 4) to physically open the bag with a gate that enters into
the bag while the product exits the funnel. See Figure 3 - 20 and Figure 3 - 21.
The funnel can be operated in an "Open Accumulator" mode or a "Closed Accumulator" mode. In an Open Accumulator mode, the door is closed only during the sealing operation.
The door opens when the bag is in position and will remain open until the bag has been filled. The door will then close only until the next bag is in position.
In the Closed Accumulator mode, the door remains closed until the full batch is in the funnel. Then the funnel door will open until all product drops from the funnel.
Settings are provided to delay opening or maintain the opening until product has passed through.

US-5000 / US-5500 Semiautomatic Net Weigh Scale
The US-5000 and US-5500 Net Weigh systems are versatile semiautomatic bagging systems which provides for fast bagging of kits or one type of part per bag, in counts up to 10,000 pieces.
If your company bags a wide variety of parts with multiple parts of various counts in bags, the US-5000 and US-
5500 Kit Packaging systems are an excellent solution.
This option is accessed through the Options screen. A separate manual is provided if this option is purchased or is available upon request.
PB-20 Optical Palm Buttons
Palm Buttons can be used to cycle the machine instead of a foot switch. Two buttons, positioned on opposite sides on the machine must be touched simultaneously to cycle the bagger. If both buttons are not touched at the same time, or if one of the buttons is held while the other button is touched, the machine will not cycle. As an additional safety function, the Automatic cycle mode is disabled when the
Palm Button option is turned ON. The foot switch input is also disabled when the Palm Button option is turned ON.
See Figure 3 - 22.

Operating height can be adjusted through the touch screen controlling a telescopic lift screw mechanism. To adjust the height, toggle the Option ON and press the UP Arrow or the
DOWN Arrow. See Figure 3 - 24.
DF-20 Part Diverter (Diverting
Funnel)
This feature is used to count bags and divert them from the
bagger for further packaging operations. See Figure 3 - 25.
Final / Current : Final displays the total, preset count. Current displays the count the machine is processing. Press the green
<Final / Current > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and press the <ENT > button to adjust the final count. The
Final LED will illuminate when the final count is reached.
Press the <Reset > button to reset the Final Count.
Flip Delay : The amount of time, in seconds, before the part diverter will flip after receiving a signal from the sensor.
Note: Valve # X indicates the Valve Station number assigned to this option. Valve #0 indicates that no valve is
Figure 3 - 24
Figure 3 - 25 assigned to this option. The option will not operate unless a
Valve Station number greater than zero is assigned.
Min Size : This setting affects how parts are counted and is used to filter scrap. Min Size can either be manually set by the operator or automatically set after an eye test is performed. If manually set, Min Size should be set to reflect the minimum size that can be counted as one part. For example, if the Min Size is set to 0.4, a part measured at 0.3 would not be counted, while a part measured at 0.5 would be counted as one part (assuming 0.5 falls below the Max Size setting). If automatically calculated, Min Size is 80% of the Min measurement. To adjust
Min Size manually, press the <Min Size > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and press the <ENT > button.
Max Size : This setting affects how parts are counted and is used to count connected parts or parts falling through the eye together as two parts. Max Size can either be manually set by the operator or automatically set after an eye test is performed. If manually set, Max Size should be set to reflect the maximum size that can be counted as one part. For example, if the Max Size is set to 0.8, a part measured at 0.6 would be counted as one part (assuming 0.6 is above the Min Size setting), while a part measured at 0.9 would be counted as two parts. If automatically calculated, Max Size is 160% of the max measurement. To adjust Max Size manually, press the <Max Size > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and press the < ENT > button.
Note: If Min Size is set too close to the actual minimum test value, some parts may not be counted, causing overcounts. If Max Size is set too close to actual maximum test value, one part may be counted as two, causing undercounts.
Timeout : The length of the time (time-out time) the eye does not take a measurement while reading a part. Press the <Timeout > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad, and press the <ENT > button to adjust the value.
38
Eye / Count Toggle button : When toggled to COUNT, the diverter flips to divert bags after a preset quantity have been cycled. When toggled to EYE, the diverter flips and diverts every bag.
To ensure the accuracy of the count, an eye test must be performed. Press the <Eye Test > button to display the
DF-20 Eye Test screen and perform an eye test.
Parts Length Test (Eye Test) : With the Part Diverter option turned on, press the Reset button on the Eye Test
screen, See Figure 3 - 26. Toggle the <START / STOP
> toggle button to <STOP>. Then, drop parts (samples) individually through the photo sensor / funnel. The Min and Max values at the bottom of the screen will change as parts are dropped through the eye. If parts will be fed automatically, parts should pass through the eye as they would if feeding automatically.
Note: While the Eye Test screen only displays the last ninepart readings, there is no limit to the number of parts that can be used during an eye test.
Min : The smallest size recorded during a test.
Max : The largest size recorded during a test.
Time Out : This setting is automatically calculated based on the “sample” parts values and the eye test results. Time Out displays the period of time the eye does not take a measurement while reading a part.
Figure 3 - 26
Press the <Accept > button if the Min / Max values do not change after dropping many sample parts. If the Min /
Max values continue to change, continue dropping samples until the values do not change. Once the values remain consistent, press the <Accept > button and return to the Counting Funnel screen.
Test the settings by dropping one part at a time, ensuring that each count is a value of one. If not counting correctly, return to the Eye Test screen or change the Min / Max settings manually. If the eye is blocked for an extended period of time (parts jam), the machine will stop and a message will be displayed.
MV-20 Seal Validation
The Seal Validation option is not included in the standard T-
1000 package and must be purchased separately. APPI provided additional components to provide a secondary means detecting a failure or out of range condition for
components that affect seal quality. See Figure 3 - 27.
To cause a good seal and to confirm that each component required to obtain the seal is in range, we have added three validations to the T-1000:
1. Seal Temperature: a secondary controller was added with an alarm output that alarms when the temperature falls out of the set range in the temperature controller.
Figure 3 - 27
2. Seal Time: sensors on the seal bar measure how long the seal bar is engaged to validate that the heater bar is extended within an acceptable time compared to the set seal time. Seal Time is measured by the PLC for how long the 'Seal Bar In' sensor is activated. Cool Time is when the Pressure bar holds the bag in place without the
39
Heater Bar applying heat. If ‘Cool Time’ is used, Total Time is 'Seal Time' plus 'Cool Time'. Add ‘Total Time’ on ‘Seal Validation’ screen and use it for validation.
Range: When the range is set, it allows a variance (+/- seconds) from the set seal time.
3. Seal Pressure: a pressure sensor was added with an alarm output that alarms when the pressure falls out of the set range in the pressure sensor.
Typically, medical companies require seal validation as a secondary means to detect out of range conditions are to stop the operation when the condition exists. A Message will be displayed if any of the three validation components are out of range. The Pressure Sensor may also be added to the T-1000 to validate only pressure, without adding the other two components. For application requiring this validation only, the bagger will not operate unless the sensor provides an output indicated that the pressure is above a minimum allowable setting.
Medical Flat Seal
This flat seal option has added Fill Time and Seal Delay
functions to adhere to medical specifications. See Figure 3 -
28.
On / Off turns the feature on or off.
< In / Up > changes to <Out / Down > depending on the position of the fingers.
Fill Time : The amount of time, in seconds, before the bagger begins to seal the bag after the accumulating funnel door has closed.
Seal Delay : The amount of time, in seconds, before the seal
Figure 3 - 28 operation begins after the air is turned off. This delay setting allows air to escape the bag. To change this setting, press the <Seal Delay > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and press the <ENT > button.
FSEAL CYCLE
: Cycles the flat seal fingers.
Cancel : Pressing <Cancel > will reset the cycle.
BF-10 Bag Deflator
To press the air from the bag, a pneumatic bag deflator can be fitted. Several timers are provided to change the sequence of operation. Toggle the option ON and adjust the Seal
Delay settings to cause the bag deflator to cycle prior to the
seal bar. See Figure 3 - 29.
Fill Time : The amount of time, in seconds, before the bagger begins to seal the bag after the accumulating funnel door has closed.
Seal Delay : The amount of time, in seconds, before the seal
Figure 3 - 29 operation begins after the air is turned off. This delay setting allows air to escape the bag. To change this setting, press the <Seal Delay> button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and press the <ENT > button.
40
Seal Time : The amount of time, in seconds, the heater bar will remain touching the surface of the bag for proper sealing. To adjust this setting, press the <Seal Time > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and then press the <ENT > button.
Cool Time : The amount of time, in seconds, the pressure bar is released to ensure the seal is cool enough to be torn off after the pressure bar and heater bar have come in contact with the bag. To adjust this setting, press the
<Cool Time > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and then press the <ENT > button.
Note: The Seal Time and Cool Time work in conjunction with one another. The Cool Time cannot be set lower than the Seal Time. For Example, if the Seal Time is set for 0.5, the Cool Time cannot be set lower than
0.5.
Index Delay : The amount of time, in seconds, the previous bag has to exit the seal area after it is released and the next bag is fed into place. This delay prevents the next bag from feeding and prevents the seal bar from coming into contact with the previous bag and causing a bag jam. To change this setting, press the <Index Delay > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and press the <ENT > button.
UF-5000 Infeed Conveyor Operation Screen
The UF-5000 is an optional conveyor available for purchase. If your machine or system includes a conveyor please refer to the UF-5000 manual for further information.
BV-10 Barcode Verification Option
This option is purchased to validate that a barcode is present and readable. See Figure 3 - 30.
Press the <ON > toggle button. For each barcode successfully read, the status box will provide a “GOOD” message. If a
“NO READ” or “QUALITY” error occurs, a message will be displayed. To reduce these error messages, APPI recommends scanning the barcode before the bag is blown open when the film is flat and under tension (not past the feed rollers.)
TEST : The Test button will test read a printed label. Testing the printed label will ensure the bagger and Barcode Verifier are calibrated correctly.
Figure 3 - 30
Reprint : The Reprint Toggle button can be used to reprint the previous label if the Barcode Verifier did not read.
If Reprint is turned ON , and the verifier records a “NO READ” error, the barcode verifier will automatically rescan the label. If the bagger records “NO READ” after the rescan, the next bag is indexed with the same label printed a second time. If the T-1000-S14 is running in Manual Mode, a warning screen will be displayed, and the operator will have the option to reprint the label from that screen.
Quality Error : A STOP/CONTINUE toggle button to manage a “POOR QUALITY” read. When <CONTINUE> is toggled, the “POOR QUALITY” reading will be ignored. When <STOP> is selected, the same sequence for the
Next Bag Reprint will be enabled.
Blower : Turns off the blower while setting up the Barcode Verifier.

Temperature Calibration Screen
This calibrated temperature screen will allow for temperature calibration of the heater bar. A typical temperature setting is 400°F or 204°C. The maximum temperature setting is 600°F or 260°C. The operator will have the option of choosing between two thermocouples (TC 1 and TC 2). Since variables such as position and age of the thermocouples may affect the actual reading, a calibrated readout will provide for more consistency in sealing. See
Figure 3 - 34.
To access the Temperature Calibration Screen, from the
Main Menu press Technical Assistance (this requires a level 1 Passcode), press Bagger Factory and press the yellow Temperature Calibration button along the right
side of the screen (See Figure 3 - 40 ).
Measured Temperature : Displays the current temperature of both thermocouples, for example, 400°F (or C equivalent).
Adjustment : An entry field to enter an adjusted temperature. If there is an outside source to read the temperature of the heater bar and there is a variance between the bagger and the outside source temperature gauge, the
Figure 3 - 34
<Adjustment> button allows for that variance to be accounted for. For example, if the outside calibration equipment reads 403°F and the bagger shows 400°F, a value of -3° can be entered into Adjustment, allowing the variation to be known. By pressing the green button, a numeric keypad is accessed where two digits, negative or positive can be entered into this field.
Read Out : Combines the Current Temperature and Adjustment then displays the calculated adjusted temperature, in the case of the above example, 397°F.
Control Mode (Read): Standard temperature control by a single thermocouple.
Control Mode (Compare): Dual Temperature control, both readings have to be within the Compare Range, set on the screen by the operator. If either thermocouple exceeds the Compare Range, an alarm is displayed and the
Heater Bar shuts down.

Technical Assistance &
Troubleshooting Screens
Technical assistance sections of the Touch Screen program should be accessed by Specialized Personnel only and are provided for troubleshooting and advanced setup by
Qualified Service Engineers.
The Technical Assistance screen provides manufacturer information, factory settings adjustments and functions testing and troubleshooting. It also displays program
version for PLC controller and touch screen. See Figure 3 -
35.
Figure 3 - 35
The screen is protected from access with a Level 1 pass code. The pass code is set by default (from the
factory) to 1001. See Figure 3 - 37. This code can and should be changed when the system is put into
operation. See section 3.37
for
“Pass Code Setup”
.
Several menu options are available from the Tech Assist. Menu which will assist with troubleshooting the T-1000-
S14 and also change settings that affect the operation of the equipment.
Bagger Auxiliary Options
Auxiliary communication is provided by closed contact signaling. Additional cabling may be required which will transfer the signals between the machines in the system.
See Figure 3 - 36.
Auxiliary settings are displayed on this screen, but must be change in the Technical Assistance / Aux Setup screen.
The auxiliary signal mode will depend on the type of equipment connected.
Figure 3 - 36
Pass Code Setup Screen
Advanced Poly-Packaging, Inc. (APPI) has included a pass code function in all touch screen equipment to prevent operators from changing settings.
There are two pass code levels described as follows:
1.
Level 1: This is the highest-level pass code which prevents operators from accessing the Technical
Assistance functions of the machine. The default pass code, when shipped from the factory, is 1001. See
Figure 3 - 37.
Figure 3 - 37
44
2.
Level 2: This level pass code, when the pass code function is enabled, prevents the operator from accessing settings screens that affect the operation of
the equipment. See Figure 3 - 38.
Pass codes prevent unauthorized individuals from tampering with settings. When equipment is shipped, APPI uses the following codes which should be changed prior to putting the
T-1000 into operation. Factory Set Pass Codes:
1. Level 1 pass code: 1001
2. Level 2 pass code: 1002
To enable the pass code function, press the <Tech Assist > button from the Main Menu. Type in the Level 1 pass code
(1001 by default from APPI). Press <Bagger PassCode > from the Tech Assist screen, then press <ON> to toggle the pass
code function ON. See Figure 3 - 39.
Once the pass code function is enabled, the operator will have a programmed amount of time (time-out time) to make changes. Once this time has elapsed, the Operation Screen will automatically be
Figure 3 - 38 displayed. This time can be changed by accessing the Bagger
Password Setup Screen, pressing <PW Timeout > and entering the new value on the green numeric keypad. Press <Enter> to confirm, <CLR > to clear the value and <Exit> to cancel. To
Change the password Press either <Level 1 PW > or <Level 2

Blower OFF : To preserve compressed air, the blower (air knife) will turn off after this preset amount of time has passed. The value is set in minutes and fractions of a minute. For instance, a setting of 5.1 would turn the air off if the machine is not in use for a period of five minutes and six seconds. A typical value is between three and five minutes.
TempRange : The temperature range above and below the Seal Temperature set point the heater bar must reach for the T-1000-S14 to operate fully. For example, if the Seal Temperature is set to 360°F(182.2°C) and the Temp
Range is set to 10° , the temperature would be within the acceptable range if the heater bar temperature was between 350°F and 370°F (176.6°C and 187.7°C). If the temperature is within the acceptable range, the bagger will display “Ready” and the T-1000-S14 can begin normal operation. If the temperature is out of this range, the bagger will display “Waiting” and the T-1000-S14 will only be able to cycle in Setup mode. To change this setting, press the <Temp Range > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and press the < ENT > button. A suggested setting for Temperature Range is 20°.
Feed Dist : The bag length distance, in inches, the perforation sensor does not look for a perforation in the bag when the machine is indexing the bag. To change this setting, press the <Feed Dist > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and press the <ENT> button.
Seal Delay : The amount of time, in seconds, before the seal operation begins after the air is turned off. This delay setting allows air to escape the bag. To change this setting, press the <Seal Delay > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and press the <ENT> button.
Cool Time : The amount of time, in seconds, the pressure bar is released to ensure the seal is cool enough to be torn off after the pressure bar and heater bar have come in contact with the bag. To adjust this setting, press the
<Cool Time > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and then press the <ENT> button.
IndexDelay : The amount of time, in seconds, the previous bag has to exit the seal area after it is released and the next bag is fed into place. This delay prevents the next bag from feeding and prevents the seal bar from coming into contact with the previous bag and causing a bag jam. To change this setting, press the <Index Delay > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and press the <ENT> button.
Feed Error: The amount of acceptable variation, in inches, from the set bag length. For example, if the bag length is 15" and the Feed Error is set to 3", bags with 12-18" lengths would be accepted, but bags with a length of 19" would cause operation to stop and an error message would be displayed. To change this setting, press the
<Feed Error > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and press the <ENT> button.
Reverse Delay : The amount of time, in seconds, after the bag has been filled and sealed before the bag is reversed. To change this setting, press the <Rev. Delay > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and press the <ENT> button.
Reverse Speed : The speed, in inches per second, at which the bagger reverses to separate the bag at the perforation. To change this setting, press the <Reverse Speed > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and press the <ENT> button.
Twin Seal : The pressure bar seals for the first time then reverses and seals the bag a second time, below the first seal. Press the green button to access the numeric keypad and set the distance between Twin Seals. A typical distance is ¼”.
46
Air Pulse Delay : The amount of time, in seconds, before the air pulse operation begins. This delay setting allows the bag to get into position before blowing it open. To change this setting, press the <Air Pulse Delay > button, enter a value on the numeric keypad and press the <ENT> button.
Brightness Control . UP & Down buttons set brightness to 4 different levels, with “1” being the brightest and “4” being the dimmest.
Bag Registration
The Bag Registration screen allows the operator to set up the perforation. See Figure 3 - 41.
To determine if the seal point is registered, set the Seal Point setting to the lowest possible setting. Then press the
< Manl > cycle button or press the foot switch. The bag should move so that the perforation is approximately 1/8" from the center of the heater bar. If the bag perforation is not approximately 1/8" from the perforation, perform the following procedure carefully. If these steps are performed out of order, the bagger will not function properly.
Follow these steps to set up the perforation:
1.
Press the <Perf Registration > button on the Bagger
Factory Settings screen. The Bag Registration screen will be displayed.
2.
Press the <Find Perf > button. The bagger will advance until the perforation sensor finds the perforation, and then the bag will stop.

Memory Files and Data Structures
While the information related to Bagger settings may be stored internally on the PLC or externally on a USB Memory Stick
(Flash Drive) is similar in content, the data structures and methodology are different.
PLC Storage
Information regarding the settings for a particular job, such as Fill Time, Seal Temperature, and Bag Length, are stored in the PLC as data files of various types. These data types include:
•
Integers – data type used to store whole numbers
•
Floating Point – data type used to store decimal numbers
•
Strings – an array used to store characters
These data files are stored in PLC memory, and are accessible to the Ladder Logic of the PLC Program File.
See Figure 3 - 49
50
PLC Memory
Figure 3 - 49
The Program File contains the system files, user-created instructions (Ladder
Logic), and sub-routines
Contains the information required for operation of the Program File, organized by data type .
.
External Storage
The Memory Stick contains several types of data from the machine. The Bagger Settings are stored, similar to the information in PLC Storage. There are also files for the additional functionality of Recipe Management, and information on Alarm and Production Data. To access this information, plug in the memory stick from the bagger to your PC and open the DAT0000 folder. There will be a list of folders that have been set up by the touch screen
program, (see Figure 3 - 50). The two folders that contain the Recipe Data and Production Data are called Recipe
and Sample.
Inside DAT000 Folder:
51
Figure 3 - 50
BITMAP, CARD, DISP, FONT, HDCOPY, JPEG, LADDER, MEMO, MSG, OPELOG, SCRN, SNAP,
SRAM, WAV, and WEBSERV are folders used by the touch screen software and will appear empty on the PC.
This is because the files are hidden to prevent damage, and therefore do not show up in Windows Explorer. Do not store any information in these files as it will alter the program and will not function when the memory stick is re-inserted in the touch screen.
Note: These hidden files include types used to store images, fonts, functions, database information, and macros that are used to control the Touch Screen, so it is important to not accidentally over-write these files.
RECIPE
—contains REC0000.CSV which is a list of all the jobs / recipes saved to the USB memory stick as a
.CSV ( C ommaS eparatedV alues) file. This file type is essentially just a table of data in plain text where the values are separated by commas, as in the following example:
Item 1, Item 2, Item 3
This type of file (CSV) can be opened as an Excel spreadsheet.
To access this information, open the <Recipe> directory, and then on <REC0000>, this will open an Excel file containing all the information pertaining to each job as it was saved on the bagger. This file must be saved
(copied) to the PC without the original file changed. Once the file has been saved as a different name than the original, then the operator can use the file and save it as a MS Excel file for full use of the MS Excel formulas.
On the spreadsheet, each row is a separate job / recipe that has been saved in the USB mode on the Bagger, and the columns list all the specifications as it was set on the bagger. Information for each of the jobs starts at column
“C” and goes all the way through column “DU”. Some of the common settings are in column C-QTY, AF-Blowoff, AG-Seal Point, AH-Reverse, AI-Seal Temp, AJ-Index Speed, AK-Fill Time, AL-Seal Time, AM-Air Pulse,
AN Bag Length, AS-Feed Distance, AT-Seal Delay, AU-Cool Time, AV Reverse Delay, AW-Temp Range, AY-
Aux Out.
Note: The program does not save headings for the information being recorded. Also, the data logged is specific to each job; more data is acquired the longer the machine is run. It is recommended that you record each setting for your initial job. This information will be used the first time the spreadsheet is viewed by matching / updating the data to improve your records.
Note: DO NOT change the data in the memory stick. However, you can copy the files and past them into a folder on your PC and then use MS Excel to manipulate the data.
Note: If you are going to change anything on this file, remember to “Save As” a different name to keep the original intact.
SAMPLE —contains .BIN
files and .CSV
files. The .BIN files are data files stored in a binary format, and should not be accessed. Use the .CSV files to view the spreadsheet for each file that contains a different kind of data. The files are:
•
Cycle Log – SMP0003.CSV
•
•
Production Time Log – SMP0004.CSV
Event Logs – SMP0005.CSV, SMP0006.CSV and SMP0007.CSV
(see below for full description of these .CSV files).
52
This data can be used to provide information about the machine, including number of parts per month. However, these files must be saved (copied) to a PC without the original file changed. Then, the files can be used and saved as MS Excel files for full use of the MS Excel formulas.
Note: There are .BIN files and .CSV files in the Sample folder. DO NOT try to open or change the program used to run the .BIN files. This is the file the touch screen uses to read the information and if it is changed the program will no longer recognize the file. Use the files that have been saved as .CSV.
Note: If you wish to change the data listed in the spreadsheet, “Save As” a different name, then make your changes, keeping the original intact.
Note: Some files may not be used depending on the options of the machine. For instance, if your machine does not have a scale, you will not have any information recorded in the SMP0003.CSV file.
SMP0003.CSV Cycle Log
– records every Scale production cycle. (See Figure 3 - 51). The data recorded in each
column is as follows:
A.

Machine Adjustments
Periodically, the T-1000-S14 will require readjustments or realignments of components to ensure proper operation. Adjustments may be required after transportation, excessive handling or due to normal wear and tear.
The following chapter includes extensive information on how to make these adjustments. “How To” documents for many machine adjustments, replacements or troubleshooting techniques are located in the Help Function of our website: www.advancedpoly.com.
CAUTION: Machine adjustments, electrical troubleshooting and component replacement should be performed by qualified maintenance technicians familiar with safety practices including, but not limited to, equipment lock-out / tag-out, voltages and pneumatics. If you are not familiar with the equipment or have not received training on the T-1000-S14, consult with APPI Technical Support before attempting adjustments or
repairs.
Compression (Nip) Roller Adjustment
The drive roll compression is the force that exists between the two feed rolls (rubber-covered grooved roll and grooved steel roll). Too little drive roll compression will prevent the bags from tearing off after each sealing operation. Too much drive roll compression will cause extra wear on the drive roll and the motor.
Note: Always clean rollers before adjusting.
Turn the power switch to the OFF position and unplug the power cord. Remove the left and right-side covers.
The compression adjustment is located on the lower outside right and left side plates. See Figure 4-1 and Figure
4-2.
Compression adjustment is a two-step process. First, the lower roller is adjusted so that it is parallel to the upper roller. Then, the lower roller is adjusted (raised) for proper compression.
On both the left panel and right panel, loosen the two locking bolts on the upper block of the compression tension assembly. Loosen the nut on the adjustment screw. With the Seal Frame locked in the UP position, lower the lower (steel) roller by turning the adjustment screws clockwise until the lower (steel) roller is parallel to the upper
(blue) roller, leaving a 1/16" gap between the rollers. Turn the adjustment screw counter-clockwise alternatively, keeping the lower roller parallel with the upper roller until the rollers come in contact across the width of the rollers. Slightly lower the inner frame and raise again to ensure that when raised again, the rollers touch simultaneously. Then "snug" the upper block bolts and recheck the alignment.
Note: A light source (lamp) positioned to the rear of the T-1000-S14 showing light in the gap of the rollers will assist in judging whether the upper and lower roller are parallel.
With the rollers parallel and slightly touching, turn each adjustment screw approximately 1/8 turn counterclockwise. Then test the compression by putting a bag between the rollers and attempting to pull the bag between the rollers. If the bag pulls out easily, turn the compression adjustment screws 1/8 turn counter-clockwise.
Continue this adjustment until the bag is slightly difficult to pull out of the rollers.
CAUTION: Over-tightening of the compression adjustment screws may cause damage to the upper (rubber) roller or the motor.
When you are satisfied with the compression, slightly lower the Seal Frame and then slowly raise it until it almost touches the upper roller. If the gap is consistent across the width of the rollers and it appears parallel, lock the Seal
Frame upward and retighten the two locking bolts on the upper block of the compression tension assembly. Then retighten the nut on the adjustment screws. Replace the covers, plug the cord into the power outlet, and turn the main power on.

Dancer Assembly Adjustments (Roller Shaft)
Please refer to 5.6 Dancer Assembly when using these instructions. A roller shaft, holding in position a
roll of bags, will rest on the side plates of the dancer assembly. The roller shaft must be parallel to the upper and lower guide rollers to allow proper tracking through the center of the T-1000-S14. If the roller shaft is not parallel, the web of bags may track to the left or right.
Note: The roller shaft should not be out of alignment unless damaged or jolted in shipment.
If the rollers are not parallel, loosen two Socket Head Bolts on Dancer Frame and move Dancer Frame backward or forward until the Dancer Roller is parallel with Guide Rollers on the T-1000. When Guide rollers are parallel with Dancer Rollers, tighten the bolts on the Dancer Frame.
Dancer Bar and Brake Strap Adjustment
The dancer assembly maintains proper bag web tension throughout the stop/start feed motion. Web tension is required for proper tracking. If the tension is insufficient, the web may track left or right.
Thinner bags require less tension than thick bags. Web tension is created by the friction of the brake strap along with the weight of the dancer bar pulling downward on the web of bags. Friction of the brake is created by the weight of the bag roll and the spring tension on the brake strap. As the dancer bar rises, spring tension is decreased and friction is decreased. If the web of bags is slack between the dancer roller and nip rollers, there is not enough tension on the bags. If the web of bags breaks prematurely, the tension is too high.
To correct the web tension, the dancer bar or brake strap spring must be adjusted. To increase brake strap tension, relocate the spring on the dancer rail by sliding the block closer to the dancer roller. To decrease tension with the brake strap, move the spring on the dancer bar and slide the block back away from the dancer roller.
The dancer bar pivots on two shoulder bolts that extend from the side plates. The downward force can be adjusted by repositioning the pivot point. To increase tension with the pivot position, move the pivot position away from the dancer roller. To decrease tension, move the pivot position closer to the dancer roller.
Note: For the brake strap to function correctly, the roll shaft must be installed so the strap wraps around the roll shaft. Inspect the dancer bar to ensure that it is parallel to the roller shaft.
Upper Roller Guides
Two plastic web guides are located on the upper rear roll of the T-1000-S14 and are used for fine adjustment of tracking. Once the web is tracking within +/- 1/8" (0.31 cm) left to right, the plastic web guides can be used to further assist with tracking. Hold the upper roller in place while turning and sliding the plastic guides close to the bags without touching the bags.
Note: If the bags are not tracking properly, the plastic guides could cause the bag web to turn or fold over. If this occurs, slide the guides further away from the web and make adjustments to correct tracking issues.
Note: If bags have an air relief hole or hanger hole, shift the bag to the right or left of center to avoid
having the hole pass directly under the perforation sensor.
Note: Use the web guides for minor adjustments only. Major adjustment of the guides requires
relocation of the bag roll on the bag roll shaft.
64
LEFT SIDE PLATE TEFLON ADJUSTMENT
Figure 4-3
65
Teflon Adjustment
A Teflon sheet that prevents the bag from sticking to heater bar surfaces is located immediately behind the front plate. The Teflon should periodically be inspected for wear or damage. If holes or tears exist, the
Teflon rolls can be turned (rotated) to cover the contact surfaces with fresh Teflon.
If an adjustment of Teflon is required, turn the main power OFF and unplug the power cord. Lower the inner frame by pulling the handle downward. The Teflon rollers are located on the outside lower frame,
on the left and right side of the inner frame that extends beneath the side plates. See Figure 4-3.
To adjust the Teflon, turn the lower roller counter-clockwise approximately ¼ of a turn using a flathead screwdriver. If there is too much tension on the Teflon, turn the roller counter-clockwise, releasing ALL of the tension on the Teflon. If there is too much slack in the Teflon, turn the top clockwise.
CAUTION: If Teflon tension is not released, the Teflon will tear when the seal bar engages.
Teflon Replacement
Once the Teflon Sheet has reached the end of the roll, it is time for it to be replaced. To order a replacement Teflon Sheet, call APPI Service and refer to part number TP-300500, T-1000 Teflon Sheet.
1.
Turn the power to the OFF position and unplug the power cord. Let machine cool for at least an hour.
2.
Remove the Lexan guard by unscrewing the two acorn nuts connected to the shafts. Remove the four Button head screws that hold the Front Plate to the inner frame. Set these aside in a safe place.
Note: Fiber spacers located behind the front plate may fall when removing the Front Plate screws.
3.
Slide the Front Plate back and remove Teflon Guide. Determine if your machine is a Standard
Frame or a Drop Frame. Look closely at the Teflon Sheet Bracket. If you have a Standard Frame the LONG side of the Teflon Sheet Bracket goes up. If you have a Drop Frame the SHORT side goes up. This is important for reassembly.
4.
Remove the two springs and clean the adhesive from both shafts. See Section 5.10c for Exploded
Diagram.
5.
Separate the two shafts.
6.
Lay one Shaft on the top of the Teflon Sheet and measure from the edge of the Teflon Sheet to the edge of the Shaft. Ensure the Teflon Sheet is in the center of the Shaft.
7.
Wrap a piece of tape on the Shaft at the edge of the Teflon.
8.
Take the second Shaft, lay the first Shaft next to it and wrap tape around the end of the second
Shaft in exactly the same place as the first. Keep the taped ends on the same side of the Teflon
Sheet.
9.
Remove the adhesive backing from one end of the Teflon Sheet.
10.
Align one Shaft parallel to the Teflon Sheet with the taped end of the Shaft meeting up with the edge of the Teflon Sheet. Once the shaft is in position, lower onto adhesive side of the Teflon
Sheet.
11.
Roll the Shaft until you reach the end of the adhesive part.
12.
Repeat with the other Shaft, ensuring the taped ends are on the same side. Once the Teflon Sheet has been rolled over the Shafts, the tape may be removed.
13.
Determine if your machine is a Standard Frame or a Drop Frame. Look closely at the Teflon
Sheet Bracket. If you have a Standard Frame the LONG side of the Teflon Sheet Bracket goes up.
If you have a Drop Frame the SHORT side goes up.
14.
Lay the Teflon Sheet Bracket in the middle of the Teflon Sheet.
15.
Place the Shaft into the cutouts of the Bracket then pull the spring so that you have two wraps between the Bracket and the Shaft. Be sure the Spring is in the groove on the Shaft.
16.
Repeat the same procedure on the other Shaft.
17.
Wind the Teflon so that the supply is at the TOP of the Teflon Sheet Bracket. Standard Frame,
LONG side up; Drop Frame, SHORT side up (refer to step 13)
18.
Place Teflon Sheet Bracket Assembly back into the bagger. If your machine is a Standard Frame, ensure the LONG side is up, and for a Drop Frame the SHORT side is up.
66
19.
Slide the Front Gripper Plate back into position.
20.
Place Front Plate Spacers behind Front Plate, insert button head screws, then tighten.
Pressure Bar Adjustment
The pressure bar, when actuated by the seal cylinder, is forced against the front plate. The pressure bar must be parallel to the front plate to avoid excessive wear of components. Please contact Advanced Poly-
Packaging Service for Pressure Bar adjustment instructions.
Note: Pressure bar adjustment should only be necessary after rod or bushing replacement.
Sealer Cylinders Adjustment
Flow controls operate the air flow which dictates the speed of the cylinder in an “in-and-out” motion that brings the Pressure Bar against the front plate (Gripper Plate). Increasing the speed of the Pressure Bar will increase production. But if the Pressure Bar moves in or out too fast, the Pressure Bar will “bang” and excessive wear will occur. The inline Flow Control that controls the Pressure Bar Cylinder is located
on the tubing to the main center cylinder on the inner frame. See Figure 4-4.
The adjustment knob (B) controls the speed of the Pressure Bar INWARD (towards the front gripper plate). To increase the speed of the Pressure Bar INWARD, turn the knob (B) counterclockwise. To decrease the speed of the Pressure Bar INWARD, turn the knob (B) clockwise.
Note: There is no OUTWARD adjustment for the Pressure Bar.
The adjustment knob (A) controls the speed of the Heater Bar OUTWARD (away from the front Gripper
Plate). To increase the speed of the Heater Bar OUTWARD, turn the knob (A) counterclockwise. To decrease the speed of the Heater Bar OUTWARD, turn the knob (A) clockwise. Adjust the speed of the
Pressure Bar so that it moves in and out rapidly, in a fluid manner, without causing the Pressure Bar to
"bang" in or out.
Note: There is no INWARD adjustment on the Heater Bar.
Pressure Bar (Rubber) Replacement
Located along the inside of the pressure bar is a strip of rubber, held on the pressure bar by a channel, pressing on the edges of the rubber. The rubber compresses against the front (gripper) plate holding the bag in place during sealing and bag tear-off. If the rubber becomes brittle, torn, gouged or otherwise worn, it should be replaced to assure strong seals.
To replace the pressure bar rubber, simply pull one end of the rubber from the channel. The rubber will come out of the channel quickly and easily. To install a fresh piece of rubber, press one edge of the rubber into the channel, then the other edge. Work the rubber into the channel in small increments along the
length of the channel. See Figure 4-5 and Figure 4-6. If you used Teflon tape to cover the surface of the
rubber, place the Teflon on the rubber along its length. If the Teflon extends beyond the rubber, cut off the excess.
Note: Teflon may be added to the pressure bar rubber if the bag sticks to the rubber after loading and sealing. The bag may stick to the rubber if the product and bag are lightweight and if the rubber is dirty.
Note: Frequently clean the rubber with alcohol to remove buildup of dirt or other contaminants.

Anti-Jam Adjustment
The anti-jam device is designed to protect the T-1000-S14 from damage when an obstruction is encountered in the seal area, between the pressure bar and front gripper plate. If properly adjusted, the pressure bar will retract if an obstruction is encountered in the seal area. The pressure bar houses springs that cause the rubber and holder to compress. When the rubber holder compresses, a sensor is activated, causing the pressure bar to retract. The sensor is defeated when the pressure bar is approximately 1/8" from the gripper plate. See Figure 4-7. The anti-jam device can quickly be tested while the T-1000-S14 is operating using care, but it should be thoroughly tested by disconnecting air and power and removing covers.
To quickly test the anti-jam device, place a 3/8" diameter flexible poly tube against the front gripper plate perpendicular to the seal bar opening. Press the foot switch allowing the pressure bar to compress the poly tube against the front plate. If the pressure bar does not immediately retract and place the T-1000-S14 in the STOP mode, the anti-jam device is not properly adjusted. Test the anti-jam device along the entire length of the pressure bar using the 3/8" poly tubing as a test device.
CAUTION: To avoid personal injury, do not place fingers or hands into the seal area of the T-1000-
S14 while power is ON or air is attached. Do not test the anti-jam device with hands or fingers. Ensure the poly tube that is used for testing is long enough to keep fingers or hands away from the seal area of the T-1000-S14.
Part 1: Anti-Jam Test
To thoroughly test and adjust the anti-jam device, you must first turn the power to the OFF position, and disconnect the air line from the T-1000-S14. Remove Top Cover by unscrewing the two Button Head
Screws, one on each side of the top- rear of the machine. Keep these screws in a safe place. Remove the top cover. With the covers removed and air disconnected, turn the power to the ON position.
With Power on, access the Main Menu on the Touch Screen, press Technical Assistance, and enter Level
1 Pass Code (1001). Press ENT.
On the Technical Assistance screen, press PLC Info to access the PLC I/O screen. You will be checking to see if the X7 LED illuminates when the Anti-Jam is tested.
From the front of the machine, move Pressure Bar in until the rubber is approximately 1/8 inch from touching the angle of the Gripper Plate.
Locate the Seal Rod and Magnetic Sensor Block on the left side of the T-1000.
With an Allen Wrench, loosen the Magnetic Sensor Block and slide Magnetic Sensor Block towards
Magnetic Switch until X7 just illuminates.
At this point, tighten the Magnetic Sensor Block at the place where X7 illuminated. Be sure it is straight up and down and clears the Magnetic Switch.
CAUTION: To avoid damaging the plastic override sensor, position the sensor so that it does not contact the magnetic block when the pressure bar is moving. To avoid “stripping” the threads of the sensor, do not over tighten the securing nuts.
Re-Attach Air Supply by attaching the female quick-coupler to the male quick-coupler on the filter regulator assembly.
Anti-Jam is working. Put the T-1000 in Auto Run and let it cycle. While it is running perform the Anti-
Jam test again by placing a piece of 3/8 tubing doubled over and place in between Pressure Bar and Heat
Bar. The Pressure bar should jump back and the Touch Screen should give an Anti-Jam error screen.

Part 2: Other Anti-Jam Testing
Next, locate the "X4" LED on the PLC Info Screen (under Technical Assist) and ensure the light is illuminated (ON). Then, compress the rubber and holder into the pressure bar (nylon holder). As soon as the rubber is pressed into the nylon holder, the "X4" LED should turn OFF. The LED should remain off while the rubber is held compressed into the nylon holder. If the "X4" LED shuts off while the rubber bar is pressed into the nylon holder, the pressure bar sensor is functioning properly.
Note: Acorn Nut base should be flat making full contact to the surface of the plate. If the Acorn Nut is worn, it will need replaced. Call APPI and refer to Replacement Part # TP-101131 (Nut, Acorn Brass
Nickel Plate) when reordering.
Note: X3 is used on the T-1000 Clutch Brake and X4 is used on the T-1000-S14.
If the X4 LED is OFF when the rubber bar is not depressed into the nylon holder, the Coiled Cable, located inside the Main Frame of the T-1000-S14, must be tested and the two Acorn Nuts must be checked for wear. Check the cable for any cuts or worn spots that could be going to ground. If there are signs of wear and tear it must be replaced. Refer to Part # TP - T1ME00209, Seal Bar Coiled Cable
Harness when reordering from APPI Service.
If the coil is intact and it is still lighting when the Rubber Bar is depressed, unplug the Coiled Cable
Harness located inside the Main Frame of the T-1000-S14. Using an electric meter set on Ohms, put the test leads on the coiled cable side and measure the resistance, it should be 0 or closed.
Squeeze the pressure bar. The meter should now show resistance or open. If it does, reconnect coiled cable, reattach Lexan Cover with Acorn nuts, and continue with production. If it does not, the coiled cable will need replaced. Call APPI Service and refer to PN: TP-T1ME00209, Seal Bar Coiled Cable
Harness when reordering.
Heater Cartridge Replacement
A cylinder-shaped cartridge (element), located inside the heater bar, heats the bronze bars that contain it.
This cartridge is considered a normal wear item and will infrequently fail, requiring replacement. Refer
to Figure 4-8 while following these instructions.
To determine if the heater cartridge is bad, use the following troubleshooting steps:
1.
Check resistance value of heater cartridge. At room temperature, a 110V machine should read approximately 18 Ohms, and a 220V machine should read approximately 60 Ohms.
2.
Locate the "Y3" indicator on the PLC info screen.
3.
Press the <START > button if the T-1000-S14 is in the Stop mode. If "Y3" illuminates in long pulses without increasing the temperature on the Bagger Settings screen, the Heater Cartridge will need replaced.
Note: If you do not have an Ohms meter, start at step 2.
If the Heater Cartridge needs replaced, please call APPI Service.

HEATER BAR CARTRIDGE REPLACEMENT
Figure 4-8
VIEW FROM UNDERNEATH THE INNER FRAME
Note: Heater cartridge wires must make a sharp 90° bend at the end of heater bar. Wires should not extend past the end of the heater bar.
Note: If the wires rub on the bagger when the heater bar is in or out, the heater cartridge will fall prematurely.
74
Replace Thermocouple Wire
A thermocouple wire, brazed to a ring terminal and secured to the bottom of the heater bar, detects the amount of heat the heater bar is emitting. The thermocouple wire is considered a normal wear item and will infrequently fail, requiring replacement.
The thermocouple should be replaced when excessive fluctuations occur or incorrect temperature is displayed in the Bagger Settings menu. The thermocouple should also be replaced when a visual inspection reveals frayed insulation or broken wire. If the above conditions are met, the thermocouple is bad and the current to the heater bar has been turned OFF.
To replace the thermocouple wire, turn the main power to the OFF position, unplug the power cord and disconnect the air line. Let machine cool for at least an hour.
Remove the Gripper Plate and Teflon assembly, take note as to which side of the Teflon Sheet Bracket is up (the SHORT side of the groove on the bracket will be up for Drop Frame or the LONG side of the groove will be up for Standard Frame). Unplug the Heater Cartridge and Thermocouple wires, then remove the two shoulder bolts holding the Heater Bar in the yolks. Remove the Heater Bar. Remove the screws that hold the ring terminal and the jacketed wire clamp. Disconnect the connector and remove the wire. Reverse these steps to replace the wire and reattach Heater Bar.
Note: there is a top side and a bottom side to the thermocouple eye, the top side is flat and shiny, the
bottom side has a slight groove in it. Attach the thermocouple wire so the top side is facing out.
CAUTION: To avoid stretching or breaking the wire during heater cylinder extension, ensure that the
wire is looped and free to bend during heater bar movement.
Replace the Teflon assembly ensuring the correct side is up, then reattach Gripper Plate.
Preventative Maintenance and Scheduled Maintenance
To extend the life of the T-1000-S14, qualified maintenance personnel must perform all required maintenance tasks. Failure to perform scheduled and preventative maintenance may cause excessive wear to components and will void the warranty. For the purpose of this manual, preventative maintenance (PM) tasks are considered periodic tasks that should be performed on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.
Scheduled maintenance tasks are performed when the T-1000-S14 Maintenance Chart Number changes to a higher number. Scheduled maintenance tasks (CHART items) are performed depending on the number of machine cycles and therefore are not considered "periodic" tasks.

Troubleshooting Guide
The items included in this section cover the common causes of trouble that an operator might encounter during the operation of the T-1000-S14. When operating difficulties occur, the best procedure is to observe what is happening, identify the causes and effect the correction. Make only one adjustment at a time, checking the results of each adjustment. If an adjustment does not help or escalates the problem(s), return the settings back to the former position.
CAUTION: These tests and repairs should be performed only by qualified mechanics or electricians and at their own risk.
Note: When troubleshooting a T-1000-S14 functioning within a system (i.e. with conveyors, scales,
feeders, counters, etc.), always isolate the equipment and operate each machine individually.
