1. Temperature setting
①Press ‘SET’ or ‘▲’‘▼’to start set.
② The display shows ‘SP’, press ‘ ▲ ’ or ‘ ▼ ’to increase or reduce the
temperature.
③Press ‘/AT’ to choose the times of the number to be altered, when the number is
shining, press ‘▲’ or ‘▼’to adjust from 0-9.
④Press “SET” to confirm and escape.
2. Self – modifying
After turning on the power and setting the temperature, press ‘ /AT’ for longer than
10 seconds till the indicator light flashes, going into the self-modifying process. The
process ends after two vibrating cycles and the ‘AT’ indicator light will turn off. The
system will get a group of optimized parameters which will be auto saved.
Self-modifying is an important process as it directly affects the efficiency of the
Temperature Controller. (For more detailed instructions, please read the Temperature
Controller manual)
Recommended temperature range for common packing films
Packing Material Temperature
Paper/PE, Aluminum Foil/PE, Nylon/PE Around 180℃
Cellophane/PE Around 170℃
The sealing temperature is closely related to the film type, thickness, packing speed,
and sealing pressure, etc. Set the temperature according to all the above factors.
Generally, considering the effect of pulling wheel and packed material, the
temperature of vertical sealing should be 10℃ lower than the horizontal sealing. The
sachets sealed under the proper temperature is of regular sizes, smooth lines and no
leaking.

4.2 Film Supply Process
When the Pulling Wheel pulls the film down, the film on the Supporting Arm makes
the Control Shaft move upwards, leaving the Proximity Switch, and connects the
circuit. The Film-supply Engine turns the Gum Cover Axis and takes down the film in
between the Adjusting Cylinder and the Gum Cover Axis. The Control Shaft then
drops due to the gravity, approaching the Proximity Switch, disconnecting the circuit
and stops the Film-supply Engine. This is one round of film supply process.
Adjustment: The movement of the Control Shaft should be level. Adjust the Setting
Screws on the left and right Supporting Arm to make the pressure between Adjusting
Cylinder and Gum Cover Axis same.

4.3 Sachet-former Adjustment
When the film is folded by the sachet former, it goes in between the pulling wheel to
finish vertical sealing and sachet forming. The proper position of sachet-former
should be: In center, level and straight. Adjust the setting screw to set the
sachet-former at the best position.
The edge of the vertical seal should be about 1mm wider than the pulling wheel.

The initial adjustment can be done without turning on the power. Turn the driving belt
by hand till the left and right thermal sealer completely close ( see the drawings
below). Loosen the Locknut on the left thermal sealer to make vertical seal in the
center of two pulling wheels and then tighten the locknut. Face right thermal sealer to
left thermal sealer and adjust vertical and horizontal sealing setting screws to press
13
the silica seal pad tight. Turning the setting screw clockwise increases pressure and
anticlockwise decreases. Be patient and careful when adjusting because the increase
(decrease) in vertical pressure will also affect the horizontal and vice versa. Tighten
the locknut on right thermal sealer after adjustment and fasten all the screws. The
centerline of the combined two sealers should match the centerline of the sachet
former.
Connect to power and heat tube, try and see whether the sealing mark is tight and
smooth. Adjust until the sealing is satisfactory.

Without turning on the power, turn the driving belt by hand till the left and right thermal
sealer completely close ( see the drawing above). The centerline (vertical seal) of the
combined two sealers should match the centerline of the sachet former. If the two
sealers are not closed tightly, turn the 4 setting screws on the right thermal sealer
clockwise to increase pressure.
Loosen the locknut on the left and right driving arm, the vertical sealers can be
adjusted back and forth.
Connect to power and thermal sealer, try and see whether the sealing mark is tight
and smooth. Adjust until the sealing is satisfactory.
3. Horizontal sealing pressure is set by the manufacturer. No extra adjustment
is needed.
Steps:
Fix the Photo Sensor and set the detect distance. Choose the right light source (take
green for example) according to the film material by the light-source guide below.
1). Move the film, the light should be cast on the background. Turn the sensitivity
15
control to minimum and then turn clockwise till the light is about to be on, and mark
the position as A. (See Pic. A below). If the light is still off when turning to MAX, then
MAX is position A.
2). Move the film again to make the light cast in the center of the Color Code. The
indicator light should be on, then turn the switch anticlockwise slowly till the indicator
light is about to turn off and mark the position of the switch as B. (See Pic. B below)
3). After finishing the above two steps properly, turn the switch to the middle of A and
B, which is C, (See Pic. C below) and the adjustment is finished. The distance
between A and B shows the difference of the colors. The bigger the distance, the
bigger color difference and it will be more stable. There should be at least one space
between A and B, otherwise, it will be unstable.

When the cutter is numerical controlled, the length from the cutting place (Cutter
Edge) to the centre of horizontal sealing track should be 2 or 3 times the set bag
length. For example, it the set bag length is 80mm, the Cutter Edge should be 160mm
or 240mm away from the sealing track center.

To adjust the position of the cutter, first loosen the locknut of the left cutter stand,
move the left cutter stand and make the cutter edge face the center of one color code
vertically, and then fasten the locknut. After that, loosen the locknut of the right cutter
stand (with a spring to adjust pressure), move the right stand and have the lower
edge of right cutter meet the upper edge of left cutter, fasten the nut of the right cutter
and press the right cutter a little down to create some pressure between the left and
right cutter.
Then put the packing sachet between the two cutters and move the Connect Board
18
by hand to try cutting. If the bag can not be cut well, press the Right Cutter down a bit
to increase the pressure between the cutters. (Note: the overlapping length of the
cutters should be bigger than 2mm, but do not make too much pressure between the
cutters in case of damage).
DCK24, DCK30
Cutters of these series are installed inside the thermal sealers, which cut the sachet
at the same time when sealing, so there is no need to adjust before operating.

4.7 Filling Adjustment
To properly fill the liquid or paste, make sure the movement of the Filling Pump, the
turning of the Valve Core and the opening and closing position of Thermal Sealer are
right. (see drawing above)
Let go clutch pole, valve core handle and adjust handle should be on same line, and
thermal sealer at it’s widest open status, this should be the right filling time.
Working Principle:
When crooked handle turns by gear, piston pole moves to right, liquid moves from
bucket (hopper) to filling pump, valve core handle moves upwards and closes the
feeding pipe passage. Thermal sealer closes. When crooked handle turns half round,
piston pole is at the most right position and valve core handle is at highest position.
When crooked handle keeps turning, piston pole moves to the left, core valve handle
moves downwards and opens the feeding pipe passage. (Horizontal sealing is done)
This is the whole cycle of filling.
20
If the above status can not be achieved, please adjust as follows:
Turn off power, pull belt by hand ( according to the arrow on the belt), when horizontal
thermal sealer opens at maximum position, stop pulling the belt, loosen the locknut on
transition gear to remove it from clutch gear; turn crooked handle to make it on
straight line and facing backward; close clutch and match transaction gear with clutch
gear, fasten locknut and finish adjusting.
1. The proper material-dropping time: Turn off power, pull driving belt on the main
engine and make the thermal sealers close.
Screw Valve Core
Crooked Handle
Valve Cap
Mark
The above picture shows the position of valve core when filling piston is at the right
position and valve core handle faces backwards. Please notice that the mark place
should be under the slot. Loosen screw, turn valve core clockwise can advance the
dropping time and vice versa. Please do not change too much to affect the tight
sealing of bucket (hopper) and valve.
21
Open the jacket and regular the distance of piston.
The piston has volume up to 20ml max.
The packing speed is set at low by the manufacturer. To accelerate the speed, turn
the Speed-control Handle on the bottom right side of the machine when the machine
is running. Turn clockwise to accelerate and anticlockwise to slow down. (Note: Do
not adjust when the machine is not running)
