11 Machine technical parameters. 29
Before installing the machine, please read this manual carefully, to avoid personal injury and/or damage the machine.
Please familiarize yourself with the machine, the connections, emergency stop procedure before attempting to operate.
This manual is intended to assist in training basic operation and programming of the machine. Machine operations should only be attempted by trained staff under technical supervision.
Packaging operations require moving arms and leverage points, high voltage, high pressure gasses which all could cause serious harm.
For safety reasons the door should not be opened when the machine is running. There are proximity switches at the access doors to the machine, when the door is open, this will automatically stop the machine, sound the alarm, and start the strobe light flashing.
CAUTION SAFETY HAZARD: For experienced operators and maintenance staff there may be a need to open the door and have the machine running. In this case you can disable the safety door function from the touch screen.
In an emergency, you can press the red "stop" button on the machine, the machine will stop running immediately. After troubleshooting, then you can reset the button. Turn it right to reset.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
The ROTARY RN1S COFFEE CAPSULE FILLING AND SEALING MACHINE is a fully enclosed automated capsule filling machine that can operate up to 70 capsules per minute.
Figure 1 - Specifications
This machine is designed to run at room temperature in an indoor environment.
The machine is fitted with casters allowing it to be moved on a flat surface. Please remove all connections and secure swinging arm before moving.
The temperature of heat-sealing device is extremely high when the machine is operating. If you need to make any adjustments to the machine or perform any maintenance functions in the vicinity of the heating elements, switch off the machine and allow it to cool down first.
Before installing the machine, please read this manual carefully, to avoid personal injury and/or damage the machine.
Please familiarize yourself with the machine, the connections, emergency stop procedure before attempting to operate.
WARNING: ONLY experiences users should enter the programming mode.
All key functions are controlled through the control panel. Most elements will be pre-programmed from the factory, please do not change settings before recording the factory default settings.
Controlling each function is quite simple, there are 2 modes of operation. AUTOMATIC and MANUAL. In most cases the machine will operate in the AUTOMATIC MODE.
Press AUTOMATIC on the control panel and then press AUTO button C – START.
The machine will operate automatically for all functions.
In cases where you wish to control a specific function, leave the machine in MANUAL MODE, select the desired function on the control panel and then press AUTO button C – to start.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
Follow the following procedure.
Connect the supplied power cable to a 240 V 50 Hz 10 AMP outlet.
After connecting the power cable. Turn on the machine using the on/off switch.
Temperatures for the two sealing units are set by the two control meters on the control panel. The top meter (Meter G) sets the temperature of the cutter and the first sealing unit.
The bottom meter (Meter F) sets the temperature of the second sealing unit.
To set the temperature press the up / down buttons until the desired temperature is reached. This value will be displayed in GREEN.
The unit will heat up and the actual temperature will be displayed. Once the actual temperature is reached for both temperature gauges you may begin making capsules.
Connect compressed air to the following inlet using the connections provided or new connectors as required.
B - On/off switch, push in to switch air supply on, pull out to turn air supply.
To adjust air pressure, pull out A to deliver an air pressure to the unit of between 0.6 bar-0.8 bar as shown in meter C.
After any adjustments make sure that C is pressed back down in the locked position.
Coffee is a delicate product. To prevent the oxidation of the coffee in portion packs, nitrogen gas is used during dosing until the capsules are sealed and the oxygen is removed.
The Nitrogen flushing is handled automatically by the capsule packing machine. The only requirements are to connect a bottle of food grade nitrogen to the machine.
To adjust air pressure, pull out D to deliver an air pressure to the unit of between 0.1 MPA as shown in meter E.
The nitrogen gas pressure should be 0.1MPA with a flow rate of between we recommend 200-500 liters/MIN.
Use food-grade Nitrogen.
Load empty capsules through the capsule tube.
Load the paper real by following the steps below.
Set the desired weight of the capsule, in this example we will is 5.5g. To calibrate this weight, you will then need to adjust the FEEDING SUBDIVISION values. The Larger the value, the lower filling quantity, the smaller value, the greater filling quantity. A good starting point is 1.34.
Function | Description |
Filling Serve Turn on 100 Shut 200 - this is to control the filling servo on and off time | NO NEED TO ADJUST THIS VALUE – FACTORY SET |
Topping device Turn on Shut 300 – This is the capsules lift and down time. | NO NEED TO ADJUST THIS VALUE – FACTORY SET |
Stirring time 1.0 s This is the delay time to the next stirring cycle when stirring is not set to continuous mode. | NO NEED TO ADJUST THIS VALUE – FACTORY SET |
Cup testing to topping 0 - no cup no filling | NO NEED TO ADJUST THIS VALUE – FACTORY SET |
Weight added 5.5 g – You can set this value to the filling weight you want to get | Adjust this value for the desired output weight |
Filling Serve Turn on 100 Shut 200 -this is to control the filling servo on and off time from Programmer value | NO NEED TO ADJUST THIS VALUE – FACTORY SET |
Feeding Subdivision: This is to adjust the filling accuracy, if the measured weight does not meet the set value (Weight added 5.5 g), you can calibrate with this value. Adjust the feeding subdivision: The Larger the value, the lower filling quantity, The smaller value, the greater filling quantity | Adjust this value to calibrate. A good starting point is 1.34 |
SERVO speed No need to change normally, this is the servo motor running speed. | NO NEED TO ADJUST THIS VALUE – FACTORY SET |
SERVO Acceleration. This is to adjust the servo motor acceleration, The lower the value the faster the speed. | NO NEED TO ADJUST THIS VALUE – FACTORY SET |
Servo Deceleration: To adjust the servo motor stop, the larger the value the longer it will take to stop. | NO NEED TO ADJUST THIS VALUE – FACTORY SET |
SERVO. This is the servo motor running speed. | NO NEED TO ADJUST THIS VALUE – FACTORY SET |
Filling times after less material | NO NEED TO ADJUST THIS VALUE – FACTORY SET |
Figure 8 - programming of dosage
You can program the machine to set up a predefined number of capsules. Once the machine reaches the programmed amount of capsules the machine will automatically stop and an alarm with sound.
To set the programmed quantity:
Select COUNTING STOP and enter desired number of capsules
Activate CUPCOUNT
Machine will automatically stop after the programmed amount of cups
You can program the machine to set up a predefined number of capsules at the end of the conveyor belt before the chute changes position.
Once the machine reaches the programmed number of capsules the chute will change positions. This allows the counting of capsules per carton before packing.
To set the programmed quantity.
The ground coffee loader will automatically load the auger with ground coffee.
Please check the connections prior to operating.
Please do not leave ground coffee in the hopper. It should be packed in capsules or removed once you have finished packing for the day.
To empty the Hopper and the auger please follow the instructions below.
