Model 7112 Hopper Feed Heat
Sealer
The 7112 HF Sealer has been designed to automate the feeding of labels, flocks and
stackable embroideries. Precision and versatility have been the keynotes of its
design.
Precision in that each item can be repeatedly fed to 1/32 of an inch in position.
Versatility in that the system can feed one item at a time or two at once. This
provides the means by with a garment that needs two labels can be labeled with one
stroke of the press. Thus providing twice the production capability for the cycle
time.
A further option that is available is the reciprocal base system, which will
automatically position garment items under the press head. This feature makes it
possible to load and unload garments prior to actual sealing.
The installation is covered in the following section.

Installation
1. Place machine on solid table.
2. Connect compressed air service of 80 PSI to air regulator input.
3. Put main plug into source of a current AC 120 VAC @ 15 Amps.
4. Turn on main switch.
5. Fill hopper with labels/transfers (For labels, adhesive side down)
6. Press Load Button, vacuum cup should pick up label from hopper. Press the
Feed Button to move the label/transfer from the hopper to the Electrode
Plate (Sealing head). If cup does not pick up label:
A) Check position of hopper and adjust so that vacuum cup touches
labels on edge of label covered with adhesive providing good
suction.
B) The number on the vacuum gauge should read 16 or higher with
label on cup.
7. With a label/transfer under the sealing head, activate the hand switches.
Head should now descend - putting label/transfer on shirt with the pressure
shown on air gauge
8. Leveling of the press should be checked to determine that the sealing head
is parallel to the base. This can be checked by sealing a carbon paper order
form in the machine. This should show a nice even pressure picture. An
uneven condition can be adjusted with the bolt in the rear of the base plate.
To Change Time Settings
1. To begin sequence press “OK”.
2. Press cursor knob arrow down ⇓ (The word “Parameter” will appear).
3. Press “OK”.
4. T-1 will be flashing on right side
5. Press cursor knob left ⇐.
6. Use cursor knob up⇑ or down ⇓ to change to desired time setting.
7. Press “OK”.
8. Press “ESCAPE” twice.

General Description
Main Switch
This turns the machine on and off.
Auto Switch
Turning this switch to the "on" position will activate the feed system, transporting a
label from the hopper to underneath the electrode, ready for sealing.
Vacuum On Off Switch
Turn the vacuum generator on and off
Load Push Button Switch
Load a label from the hopper via vacuum to the feed arm vacuum
block.
Feed Push Button Switch
Feed the label from the hopper position to the upper platen position for
the sealing cycle.
Air Pressure Gauge / Regulator
Adjustment of air pressure is accomplished by turning the knob under the air
pressure gauge. To raise the pressure, turn the knob clockwise; to lower, turn it
counter-clockwise. When lowering the pressure, allow the needle on the gauge to
drop below the desired pressure, and then raise it back to that pressure. The reason
for this is that there is a lag when bleeding air out of the system.
Heat Controls
Electrode and plate head can be set independently. The correct temperature will be
indicated on the control's face. If the control fails to reach this, refer to the heat
control pages provided.
Users Manual Electro-Sealer 7112 HF General Description •••• 7
Basic Sealing
Heat, dwell time, and pressure are the basic fundamentals that determine the results
obtainable on a thermo-plastic sealing application, such as Electro-Seal labeling. It
is impossible with the variety of fabric materials and constructions, as well as design
of garments, to establish any one setting that will give the most desirable results
under all circumstances. ON THE BASIS OF EXTENSIVE SUCCESSFUL
LAUNDRY TESTS, ON AVERAGE WEIGHT GOODS INVOLVING BOTH
WOVEN AND KNIT MATERIALS, WE WOULD SUGGEST THE FOLLOWING
STARTING POINTS FOR A NEW ELECTRO-SEAL USER;
- Setting the plate heat at 400ºF has proven to be a good starting point.
Setting the electrode heat will depend on the type of adhesive being
used. A cycle time of 1 1/2 - 2 seconds for average weight fabrics and
labels has proven adequate for laundry proof attachment.
Remember…these are only basics, and these settings can vary. Seal a label to a
sample. As your Electro-Sealer times out and releases itself, immediately remove
the fabric and lift the corner of the label. If the adhesive has stuck to both the fabric
and the label, the sealing can be judged successful. If all the adhesive is on the fabric
and none on the label, decrease the plate heat or cut back the time. Adhesives tend to
flow toward the heat.
If the adhesive has not transferred to the fabric, you have three adjustments that can
be made:
A. Increase the plate heat
B. Decrease the electrode heat; thermoplastics tend to flow towards higher
heat when melting.
C. Increase the cycle time to allow complete melting.
If the adhesive has all transferred to the fabric with none left on the label, you may:
A. Reduce the plate heat
B. Decrease the cycle time
You must judge for yourself, depending on the fabric's sensitivity to heat and time,
which of the adjustments will be best.

1. With the heat on, set the dwell timer for one (1) second or less; put a light
colored cloth or paper on the base plate (bottom platen); then, put a piece of
carbon paper, carbon side down. Run the machine trough a cycle. The
carbon paper will leave a picture of sealing area on the cloth or paper. THE
COLOR SHOULD BE EVEN. A dark area indicates more pressure in that
area and should be corrected.
2. If the out of level condition is in either the front or back, the base plate can
be tilted.
3. Loosen the bolt to lower front and raise the back.
4. Tighten to raise the front, lower the back (see fig below)

Operation
To put your Electro-Sealer into operation, turn on the main switch. Set the plate and
electrode heat controls to the desired temperature. Turn on the vacuum pump by
using the switch located on the power cord for the pump.
Turn on the auto switch. This will cause the vacuum arm to pull a label from the
hopper and move it into position until the operator depresses the foot pedal, sealing
the label onto the garment. The pedal must be held down until the press cycles out
and the seal is completed. As the press starts to rise from the garment, the foot pedal
can be released, which resets the vacuum arm to feed another label. In doing this,
the machine automatically feeds another label while the operator is removing the
garment and inserting another.
When the label has been fed into position for sealing, it is important that the label is
totally under the electrode so that the pressure is exerted on the adhesive coated
label.
The position of the vacuum arm is always the same and so to change the position of
the label relative to the electrode, you must change the position where the hopper
places the label on the vacuum arm. To move the label left or right, the hopper is
moved by loosening the lower hopper bracket, shifting the hopper in the direction
desired, then tightening the bracket in position.
Setting the Controls
Heat dwell time, and pressure are the basic fundamentals that determine the results
obtainable on a thermoplastic sealing application. It is impossible with the
variety of fabric material and constructions, as well as design of garments, to
establish any one setting that will give you the most desirable results under all
circumstance, but settings will be suggested upon request and submission of an
application.
1) Set the heat electrode (Top platen) and base plate (Bottom platen) to the
desired temperature (See heat control section).
2) Turn auto switch to the on position
3) Set dwell time recommended by the transfer manufacturer
