Electrical Data-
                         
230/1/60 20A
                         NEMA 12 rated control panel.
                         Mitsubishi programmable logic controller.
Drives-
Turntable: 1hp. 180vdc* TEFC variable speed motor with electronic motor controller.  Inline helical                                     gear   reducer, soft start acceleration and #50 chain drive 0-6rpm.
Film Lift: 1/2 hp. 180vdc* TEFC variable speed motor with electronic controller. Right angle gear reducer and   #50 chain drive.
Film Tension: 90v DC brake with controller
Program-  (Spiral)
  Operator places load on turntable and attaches film to load.  Begins wrap program  "START". 
Turntable drive starts and film tension comes on after a programmed time delay.  System  wraps  bottom of load a preset number of wraps (Bottom Wraps) and film lift motor comes  on to raise carriage to the top limit switch (or photo-eye), the film carriage pauses for the  preset top wraps (Top Wraps), and then goes down to bottom limit switch.  System will repeat  cycle for the preset number of layers and then turntable will return to the home position, stop  and reset.  "E- Stop" will stop the system at any time and reset all times and counters.  "Cycle  Interrupt" stops the program but does not reset the timers and/or counters.  "Jog" will run  turntable only  for as long as it is held in.  "Raise" and "lower" control the film elevator  carriage.  "Pause" will stop the film carriage only.
              Operator will now cut and secure the film and unload.
Controls-
External: E-Stop                                                                  Internal: Bottom Wraps
                Start                                                                      Top Wraps
               Cycle Interrupt                                                       Layers
               Jog                                                                         Film Tension
               Raise                                                                     Carriage Speed
               Lower                                                                     Turntable Speed
               Pause 
   If at some future time your needs change, the controller may be reprogrammed for a new spiral wrap program or other wrap application pattern.  If you have any questions, ;lease contact me.

Quality-
Shop acceptance test: Structural load test will be performed at 150% of rated load, I.e. 15,000                                               
                                     pounds.  All welds to be tested per the Trupact II specification.
Before Shipment:  Operating trial and acceptance tests will be performed in our shop.  For this, a   
                              sample load (empty) is expected to be provide to Kalamazoo  Packaging Systems
                              at no charge.
