3.2 Rotation control


The machine is equipped with a pneumatic device to control the motor torque; such
device is composed of a pneumatic actuator (Pos. 1 Fig. 3.3) with a proximity sensor
(Pos. 2 Fig. 3.3).
When the forks find an obstacle during the translation of the bundles of bags, the
motor torque increases, the pneumatic actuator connected to the motor stretches
and the microswitch trips stopping the machine. This device avoids any breaking or
overvoltage of the rotating devices.

6.4.2 Table of lubricants for supports, bearings, guides and chains

For the supports, the bearings, the guides and the chains use the lubricants (type
GREASE) listed below:

1)
Oil 3) ISO,NLGI Mobil ®
°C -50 0 +50 +100 2) DIN (ISO)

6.5 Lubrication of the supports with bearing


Under normal operation conditions the bearings of the supports operate without
lubrication.
In case of high humidity and dirt it is necessary however to lubricate the bearings.
The supports are equipped with a greaser to lubricate them at regular intervals,
according to the speed, the load and the environmental conditions.
For normal operation conditions use grease complying with consistency N.L.G.I. n.2.3
free of any dirt.

6.2

The ball-type greaser (Pos. 1 Fig. 6.2) is placed on the outside of the support,
therefore proceed as follows:
• smoothly insert the grease while rotating the bearing;
• grease often and in small quantities, a large greasing is deleterious;
• never lubricate with oil, always lubricate with grease using the relevant greaser.

6.6 Lubrication of the reduction gears


The oil-lubricated reduction gears are provided with filling plug, oil level and drain
plugs.
Periodically check (when the reduction gear is not working) the level of the lubricant,
and change the oil every 12000 hours after accurately washing the reduction gear
with fluid oil and mineral naphtha.
In case of synthetic oil lubrication, wash the inside of the reduction gear so as to remove
any trace of mineral running-in oil and avoid any risk of lubricant saponification.
Avoid filling too much the casing of the reduction gear.
This would cause energy dissipation, thus damaging the reduction gear.

6.6.1 Check of the reduction gears


Reduction gears may have many construction forms. The picture below illustrates
the assembling position of the reduction gear and the position of the air valve. As a
general rule the reduction gear is supplied with the air valve activated (Pos. 1 Fig.
6.3).

6.3

Otherwise remove the sealing band before starting up the reduction gear. To activate
the air valve (Fig. 6.4):
1. air valve with sealing band;
2. remove the sealing band;
3. the air valve has been activated.
