Tag Feed Problems
Tag feed problems can be caused by several things such as:
•
Machine being incorrectly webbed
•
Drive belts slipping
•
Stepper motor stalling
•
Faulty gap sensor
•
Incorrect parameter settings
If, for example, the stopping position was consistently wrong, the
most likely cause would be the parameter settings, such as the feed
distance.
If the stopping position is inconsistent, the cause is more likely to be
another possibility, such as the drive belt slipping or stepper motor
stalling.
6.1
Incorrect Tag Stopping Position
If the tag stopping position is incorrect after datum tags have been
fed and the stop position is consistent, check the following:
•
FEED ADJUST
parameter
•
BACKFEED
parameter (should always be set to 0 for Cimjet
RFID)
See the print parameter information in
Section 4 – Restricted
Access Mode User Guide
.
6.2
Erratic Tag Feeding
If the tags are feeding erratically, the
gap optic
settings may need
adjusting. To set the
gap optic
, carry out the following procedure:
•
Press
ENGINEER MODE
•
Press
SET TAGS OPTIC
The machine will now feed datum tags and will determine the
optimum sensor signal
for the tag/web and web.
•
Ensure that the
Outer
tag guide collars are set to the width of the
tag size being used, as this will stop the tag from tracking in and
out of the gap sensor
Note:
Do not adjust the
Inner
collars as these are set to a fixed
distance from the baseplate.
