3.7.1 Unwind Unit


Unwind Unit Type AR

The unwind unit Type AR is a constructive unit as a cross-sliding carriage. In this, linear guides allow for the cross-
sliding. These are mounted on guide rails, which are anchored in the concrete through mechanical connections.

The uptake arms with core braking unit, which face each other, serve to take up the original rolls. The panel braking
unit is regulated by an incremental position transducer in dependence of the diameter.

General
- Braking Unit

As a braking unit, the system / machine is either equipped with a generator brake or a pneumatic brake. The braking
unit may be mounted on the unwind unit in the direction left, right, or two-ways. It is regulated towards the center
drive by an ultrasonic sensor in dependence of the diameter and the revolutions of the original roll.

- Generator Braking Unit

Automatic brake control enabling the unwinding of the material of the original roll with a constant tension. The brake
cable is changed in proportion to the decreasing diameter of the original roll. The control of the brake is executed via
an ultrasonic sensor in interaction with a frequency converter which regulates the generator brake.

Operational and Maintenance Instructions
Reel Cutting and Winding Machine

Edge Control Unit on the Unwind Unit

The control of the cross-sliding carriage of the unwind unit is executed by the edge control unit. It is applied so that
the material enters the machine / the system straight along the edge or along a line of pressure. In this, the detection
of the edge is taken on by the ultrasound sensor, or the line sensor for the line of pressure, respectively. The infrared
sensor is universally deployable, since it reacts on the edge as well as on the line.

The cross-sliding is taken over by an electromotor, which transforms the signals evaluated by the sensor into a lifting
motion.

3.7.3 Cutting Section


For the continuous cutting of the material, the system is equipped with a cutting section.

The cutting section essentially consists of the lower knife roller driven by cogged belts and – as the corresponding
counterparts – the upper knife systems.

The lower knife roller may be fitted – depending on the equipment of the All-Slit, respectively – with various cutting
systems (see the following table). The corresponding upper knife systems serve as the counterpart to the lower knife
roller with the various equipment types:

Lower Knife Roller Corresponding Upper Knife System

Shear cutting with grooving cutters and spacer rings Shear cutting section with pneumatic upper knives

Shear cutting with cutting sleeves Shear cutting section with driven upper knife roller

Razor blade cut with flute sleeves Razor blade cutting section

3.7.4 Winding
From the cutting section, the cut strips of material are led alternately to the winders, which are arranged on top of
each other. The winders are driven each by one three-phase AC motor with frequency converter or DC-AC inverter.

The winding may be executed in various manners:


 On a pneumatic winding union with torque control
 Pneumatically regulated spherical friction rolls
Winding

- Pneumatic Winding Union

With the pneumatic winding unions the slipped-on tubes are released or tightened by the built-in clamping bars. If the
roller is pressurized with air, then the clamping bars expand and the slipped-on tubes are held tight. With the release
of the air, the clamping bars contract again and the tubes may be taken out.

Operational and Maintenance Instructions
Reel Cutting and Winding Machine
Series Allslit II

- Friction Rolls

With the friction roll, the slipped-on tubes are tightened by the built-in friction elements. The friction elements have
two decisive purposes:

- Sliding (sliding through) and thus creating a torque

- Coupling, i.e. driving the winding tube, and to transfer the torque (the pull) onto the product.

The torque may be adjusted accordingly through the alteration of the values for “Pull” and “Building up Pull”. (For this,
see the device manual for the Main Control Station.)

3.7.5 Unloading Stand


Manual + Partly Automatic Discharge Stand

In principle, the manual discharge stand is the same model as the automatic discharge stand. The difference is that
the functions of swinging in, swinging out, driving up to and away from the machine and the turning of the reception
arms are not controlled automatically, but are done manually.

If desired, the individual functions may be partly automated; they are then mainly controlled through pneumatic
switches.

3.7.6 Drives
The system / machine has the following drives:
 Main Drive
 Winding Drive

These are described more closely in the following.

Main Drive

For the uniform transport of the foil the transport and winding rolls as well as the lower and upper knife roller are
centrally driven by an adjustable three-phase AC motor. The driven rollers are connected with each other in a non-
slip manner through gear wheels and cogged belts. The guide rollers are loosely supported without a drive.

Winding Motor

Two winding stations with each one separate three-phase AC motor wind the material. Because of this, each winding
shaft may be driven separately. The winding is carried out – depending on the equipment of the system / machine –
on pneumatic winding rollers or on single frictions.

The options and extras are described in the following:

3.8.1 Suction
In order to suck off the excess edge trimmings, there is 1 suction funnel each installed to the right and the left above
the cutting unit. The edge trimmings are sucked away by the adjustable suction pipes immediately after the cutting
site and may be caught in a container to be provided by the customer.

3.8.2 Anti-Static Unit


In order to neutralize the static charge of the material, an anti-static unit has been installed. Through a transformer
the installed electrode rods are supplied with high voltage, but a low current value. The electrodes then release the
energy again and create an ion field. Statically charged parts, which come through this ion field, are immediately
discharged and become neutral.

3.8.3 Tube Positioning


The tube positioning lamps serve for an easy loading of the winding rolls with paper tubes. For this, the laser pointers
are aligned once on the guide rail according to the widths of the tubes. A laser point is prohected onto the winder roll
and thus the exact position of the paper tube is determined. Switching on and off is carried out at the main control
console.

3.8.4 Edge Trim winder

For the winding of the edge trim there are two edge trim winders mounted under or over the cutting unit
integrated in the machine. The edge trim is transported directly through an eye to the edge trim winders,
where the material is winded on an core.

8.1.4 Electrical Equipment


Protective Measures for the
System / Machine and Service Materials

According to VDE 100, the following protective measures are provided for:

 Multiple Protective Earthing


 Protective Lead Systems

The Multiple Protective Earthing is a conductive connection of bodies with the zero conductor or with a protective
conductor, which is connected to the zero conductor in a conductive manner in order to affect that an insulation fault
(complete body contact) causes a shut-off by the overcurrent protectors.

The Protective Lead System is a conductive connection of all bodies with one another and with conductive

 Building construction parts;


 Pipes and the like;
 Grounds in ungrounded electrical grids,

which are accessible to touch, in order to prevent the occurrence of excessive contact voltages in cases of insulation
faults.

During the execution of the protective measures the conditions according to afore-mentioned VDE regulation must be
observed.

Ground Connections

 After the exchange all machine base frames and steel constructions, which are anchored in the foundation, are to
re-connected with the earthing strips provided for that purpose.
 Housings, frames, and all exposed, non-conductive metal parts of switching stations, switches, starters,
capacitors, switchboards, electric machines, and similar devices must have a solid line connection to the
grounding system.
 In this, soldering lugs are not permitted! Collets are to be executed in such manner that a permanent grounding is
guaranteed.
 If the motor and the machine driven are standing on separate foundations, a grounding connection must be made
with one own line each, with the driving as well as with the driven machine.

Switching on

Prior to switching a drive on again it is to be turned by hand, if possible, in order to check the clearance.

Function of Switching Devices

After completion of the maintenance and repair works all limit switches, level switches, etc. are to be set in such a
manner that they again fulfill the prescribed function in the respective switching point.

8.1.5 Media Systems


Monitoring

The system / machine is essentially monitored automatically, i.e. improper alterations of the pressures, temperatures,
and levels in the system will be reported to the control center.

Finding the Cause of a Malfunction

In the search for a malfunction one must proceed reasonable and step by step. If flow rates, pressures, or valve
positions are altered, a reset must be carried out before something is altered at another place.

Cleanliness

At all work on the media systems care shall be taken for the highest degree of cleanliness!

Do not use any unraveling cleaning cloths!

Valve Fastening

All screws must be fastened with the prescribed tightness!

Ventilation

After the re-installation of hydraulic cylinders, instruments, or pipe sections careful ventilation must be made at the
places provided for it.

Leakage

All hose lines are to be checked daily for possible damaging and are to be renewed in necessary. All built-in radial
shaft seal rings, lip-type packing and other seals are to be checked daily for a flawless function.

Environmental Protection

The disposal of oily liquids and/or filter elements may only be carried out in accordance with the legal provisions.

Operating Media

The chemical and physical properties of the operating medium depend strongly on the load in the system, i.e. on the
temperature, the pressure, the circulation rate, and the flowing speed. The limits of the manufacturer are to be
observed, e.g. the chemical composition, permissible water content, percentage of the suspended solids, etc.

No generally valid guide value can be given for the change of the operating media. The time must be set by the
operator in cooperation with the manufacturer based on the observation of the media in practical operation.

A change of the operating medium must be carried out immediately if water, a high amount of metal debris, or other
foreign particles are contained in the hydraulic cycle. The limit values for hydraulic oil are:

 A neutrality number larger than 1 mg KOH/g Oil,


 A larger than permissible particle amount is determined at the assessment of the dirt analysis (in particular fine
dirt particles),
 A proven water content.
