5DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE

The Shannon AFF/D bending machine is a semi-automatic machine for the production of large series of

items with one or two bends for the plastic sheet processing industry.

The machine has two heating elements. The temperature of which can be adjusted by electronic controls.

The heating elements which are mounted in the pneumatically operated top frame are adjustable in height

in respect of the working surface.

One of the heating elements can be moved in the top frame to create a certain distance between the 2

bends.

The workpiece can be heated from one side by contact, reducing the production cycle time and making it

possible to bend sheet up to 1 mm thick.

The top frame is switched on independently of the control unit and is controlled by an adjustable timer.

The working surface is made of scratch-resistant solid core material to support the plastic sheet.

When heated, thermoplastics become so flexible that they can be shaped. When a plastic sheet is heated to its

softening point in a narrow zone, if can be bent to any angle desired.

The bending radius is determined by the width of the heated zone. The zone is determined by the thickness of

the material and the type of heating element.

Every plastic has its specific softening point. By coordinating the temperature, heated zone and the heating

time all kinds of thermoplastic can be processed.

6SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

To ensure safety when using the machine you should read this

User's Guide carefully and follow the safety instructions closely

Attention!

The machine contains a section where there is a risk of trapping.

Attention!

The machine contains parts, which are hot. Touching them will

cause burns.

Allow hot parts to cool sufficiently (at least 10 minutes) before

touching them.

Never touch the heating elements when the machine is in

operation.

Always wear close-fitting clothing.

Be particularly careful of sleeves and always tie back long hair.

Never leave objects on the working surface.

The machine may only be used for heating narrow zones in flat

plastic sheet.

Any other use could lead to very hazardous situations or cause

damage to the machine!

The plastic sheets that have to be bent may never be thicker than

1 mm.

Before commissioning and servicing always check the connection

cable and plug for defects.

When servicing switch off the machine and remove the plug from

the socket.

Before use always check that all the pressure bars and heating

elements in the top frame are firmly attached.

Never operate the machine if anyone is standing close behind or

beside it.

Never introduce objects or material into the machine from the

rear.

Never leave the machine unattended without switching it off.

7SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

EMERGENCY STOP

There is an emergency stop button (C) at the front of the air/timer unit, which can be reached by

the operator from the normal working position.

Pressing the emergency stop button switches off the timer and the top frame lifts up. The button

remains pushed in.

Resetting of the emergency button comes to pass by turning the button to the right.

The machine is ready to use again.

ONLY USE THE EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON WHEN:

oRisk of trapped limbs.

oDefects in the timer, so the machine fails to open after the pre-set time.

oAn outbreak of fire or situations involving a risk of fire.

oAny situation that might present a risk to people or animals.

oAny other situation, that might present a risk or cause, damage to the machine and/or

objects.
