Adhesives - Advance B562HD Manual De Operación Y Piezas

ADHESIVES

With a deep paste tray and a pickup roller, most types of paste may be used in the machine. However,
successful machine operation depends to a great extent on the right paste consistency. Working with the
machine will teach you how properly prepared paste should look. As a guide, it should have the consis-
tency of heavy pancake batter. The paste will, in most cases, have to be thinned with water and should
be thoroughly mixed, using an electric mixer. When using clay based adhesives, pull the maximum
number of sheets from one filling of the tray to prevent the paste settling in the tray. Then add paste
and pull the next batch. Clay adhesives will have to be agitated again when left at rest for some time.
Note: The machine rollers are made of aluminum alloy which is hard anodized after being machined. This
process puts a hard coating on the surface and hardens the base aluminum to the same depth. This
makes the aluminum more wear resistant than hardened steel. However, if the adhesive is excessively
acid or alkaline, it may cause roller pitting and you should change your adhesive. To protect your rollers,
remove and clean them every night and use an adhesive with pH range of 5.0 to 8.5.
ANODIZING
We protect the aluminum rollers in our pasting machines by hard anodizing them. The anodizing is done
in accordance with ASTM (American Society of Testing Materials) military specifications and we use type
Ill, which is the hardest coating. The aluminum used is type 6061, which accepts the anodizing process
very well. Anodizing is an electrochemical process, which builds a coating of .001 to .0015 to the surface
of the roller and penetrates the same amount below the surface. This hardcoat will be file hard and have
a Rockwell hardness of 48-54 and the wear resistance is superior to hardened steel. Hard anodized
coatings will not peel, since the coating is an integral part of the base metal. As the coating thickness
increases, the time capillary pores microscopically form a honeycomb pattern, that seals itself, making
the roller exceptionally corrosion and wear resistant. However, it should be noted that strong caustic
solutions or acids may cause pitting or the hardcoat to disintegrate. Therefore, it is recommended that
adhesives used in the machine should have a pH factor, which is close to neutral, in the range 5.0 to 8.5.
It should be mentioned that the color of the roller is affected by the composition of the aluminum alloy
and will range from dark gray/brown to dark black.
WARRANTY
Paste-Mate pasting machines are warranted for 12 months from date of purchase, by the original pur-
chaser, against defective materials and workmanship, provided it has been installed and operated in
accordance with factory instruction. Driving gears have a 5 year warranty against tooth breakage. The
paste tank has a lifetime warranty. (Normal wear and tear or damage caused by misuse, abrasion, corro-
sion, accident, negligence, faulty installation or tampering excluded). Advance Equipment will repair or
replace free of charge (ground shipment only) all defective parts if returned prepaid to their warehouse.
