DIRECT DRIVE TYING MACHINES

Only From

Felins, Inc., the first name in imaginative solutions to any tying problem, introduces a

new concept in tying machines — the ―Direct Drive‖ Tyers. We use the term ―direct

drive‖ to describe a unique system which incorporates the motor into the drive shaft,

thereby replacing the conventional belt-driven gear reduction system. The direct drive

tyer has a totally sealed gearbox and motor, making it impervious to dirt and

contamination and resistant to water.

The direct drive tyer contains a specially designed circuit board featuring a custom

programmable micro processor and state of the art electronics. This special circuit

board offers the advantage of the motor running only while it cycles with no loss of

tying speed.

What this means to the end-user is reduced maintenance costs. Conventional tying

machines have heat build-up due to the drive motor always running. This heat build-

up eventually causes pinion gear wear, belt wear, bearing wear, clutching failure,

motor burn-out and slip clutch wear. You probably know these are typical wear points

on conventional tyers. But the direct drive system uses electronics to drive the motor

rather than a mechanical drive. This new circuitry also allows installation of the tyer in

a variety of in-line applications — you can install the tyer upside down or at a right

angle if that’s what will fit best in the existing production system. All of this is possible

because the motor is not dependent on standard mechanical moving parts which can

be affected by gravity.

Complementing this revolutionary design is a new appearance to the tyer. All moving

parts are enclosed in an attractive cabinet, which features a built-in twine holder. The

Felins exclusive Break-Away Delivery Arm is standard equipment on the Direct Drive

Tyer. And of course, The Direct Drive Pak-Tyers model will accept any kind of string,

twine, polytape, twisted co-poly or elastic and elastomer twine.

PakTyer 2000™

INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY

The PakTyer 2000™ offers increased productivity over the conventional method of hand tying by processing up to 50 single ties or 25 cross ties per minute. Tying up to 3,000 bundles per hour!

The built-in string holder and easy thread delivery arm

allows for the quick replacement of tying materials.

The tying station accommodates 6 to 24 ply cotton

twine and a wide variety of synthetic materials

including elastomer, twisted poly, and polytape.

TYING STATION

The PakTyer 2000™ series tying station is designed to improve productivity by

reducing the cycle time of the tying process. By utilizing a state-of-the-art direct drive

system, typical wear points are eliminated; gear box and motor are sealed making it

resistant to dirt and contamination. Felins tying stations are known for their durability,

long term performance and minimal maintenance requirements. The PakTyer 2000™

series allows users to tie a wide variety of products by offering six different model

sizes.

EASY TO OPERATE

Operating the tying station is as simple as passing the bundle across the table top and activating the foot trip to complete the tying cycle. The tying material is then automatically sized to the outside diameter of the bundle, is cut and tied. Tension is adjustable allowing the user to easily change the tension to meet their specific product need.

The 2000 series offers users a variety of activation methods to initiate the tying

process including foot trip, ultra light or heavy duty automatic trip. Additional options

include the Vacuum Tail Removal system (VTR) and an obstruction sensor for added

safety.

Wrap Cycles

Preprogrammed number of wraps per cycle are selected with the wrap selector switch on the control panel. Automatic settings range from 2 through 6. The infinite setting (+) allows for continuous wrapping until foot switch is released (a minimum of 2 wraps must occur to complete the infinite cycle). XL model has a 3 wrap minimum setting.

Method of Operation

The stretch film is held by front and rear grippers below the bed of the machine. Product to be wrapped or banded is placed in position. The foot switch is depressed. When the required number of selected wraps has been made, the stretch film is automatically cut, and sealed, ready for the next product.

The number of wraps (2 to 6) may be pre-selected with the rotary selector switch mounted on the control panel. An infinite number of wraps may be obtained by setting the selector switch to infinity (∞) and keeping the foot switch depressed until desired number of wraps are achieved. When the foot switch is released, the last wrap is completed and the stretch film is cut, and sealed.
