4 Splice sensors for 12/16, 24/32, 44, 56 and 72 mm
feeders
4.1 Restrictions
– The "pocket in pocket"-splice method is not released for splice detection, because it can cause
defects and tailbacks.
– From 32 mm tape upwards a spring has to be inserted to keep the tape over the sensor (see
Fig. 4 - 5).
– Please note that the Splice Detect Sensor cannot handle tapes that contain metal material.
– If you return a defective feeder, please remove the Splice Detect Sensor. If you return a feeder
with the Splice Detect Sensor still attached, there is no guarantee that you will get Splice Detect
Sensor returned to you.
– Please note that splices must have their string of brass on the bottom of the tape.
4.2 Preparations
: Check that all of the parts are present and that you have the proper tools for installation.
: Become familiar with the Splice Detect Sensor and it’s construction as shown in Fig. 4 - 1.
: Remove the feeder from the changeover table before starting procedure. Remove the feeder
cable from the table connection.
