2.01 General
2.02 Machine versions
The PFAFF8310 is available in four versions. The special applications of the individual versi-
ons are described below, see Chapter 2.02 Machine versions. All the machine versions are
used for continuous sealing of thin, thermoplastic materials, such as e.g. fleeces, felts,
woven and knitted fabrics using ultrasonics.
Any use of these machines which is not approved by the manufacturer shall be
considered as improper use! The manufacturer shall not be liable for any dama-
ge arising out of improper use! Proper use shall also be considered to include
compliance with the operation, adjustment, service and repair measures speci-
fied by the manufacturer!
2
.02.01 Post version (PFAFF 8310-041/001)
Fig. 2 - 01
The post version is particularly suitable for
heat-sealing three-dimensional shapes, such
as e.g. hoods, caps, pouches etc. With the
aid of the post, two parts can be joined to-
gether flat or one part sealed to form a shor-
ter tube. To do so the part is wrapped around
the post and then sealed from out of the
post (e.g. the lengthwise seam of a sleeve
or a filter tube).
On the post-bed version the top roller is the
sonotrode.
Page 11
2.02.02 Off arm version (PFAFF 8310-041/002)
Proper use
The off arm version is ideal for heat-sealing
the lengthwise seam of a sleeve or tube
(up to a length of ca. 30 cm). A variation is
also available as a special version, which is
suitable for sealing the lengthwise seam of
a longer or endlessly long tube.
On the feed-off-the-arm version the top
roller is the sonotrode.
Fig. 2 - 02
2.02.03 Flat-bed version (PFAFF 8310-042 und PFAFF 8310-043)
The flat-bed version is used in particular for
sealing two flat parts. Possible seam ty-
pes are lapped seams, peeling seams, top-
stitched and binding seams. The application
possibilities correspond to those of a typical
high-speed sewing machine.
On the flat-bed version the bottom roller is
the sonotrode.
The only difference between
the PFAFF8310-043 and the PFAFF8310-042 is that the for-
mer has a smaller roller enab-
ling a smaller curve radius.

The machine may only be operated by properly instructed personnel. The
operating personnel must make sure that only authorised persons are in the
danger zone of the machine.
In particular for the production, in addition to the input mode (see Chapter 11 Input), the
sealing mode is available. Here, depending on the program selection and the machine sta-
tus, all relevant functions and settings for the sealing operation are shown on the display.
In the sealing mode, with the program selection function following production types can be

Dynamic sealing, see Chapter 10.03
Programmed sealing with individual programs, see Chapter 10.06
Programmed sealing with sequences, see Chapter 10.08
10.01 Sealing principle
Due to the vibrations of the sonotrode, the plies of the workpiece are mechanically "ham-
mered" in the seam area. Through the hammering motions of the sonotrode the workpiece
is heated until it becomes viscous and at the same time it is pressed and fed to form the
seam.
In order to achieve optimum sealing results, certain conditions concerning the workpiece
and the machine settings have to be fulfilled.
The workpiece must be:
- sealable (thermoplast),
- suitable for processing with the PFAFF 8310-003 with regard to thickness and properties
and
- clean in the seam area.
The basic requirements on the machine are:
- selection of the correct feed roller and setting
- roller pressure
- sealing power
- sealing speed and
- roller gap (distance of the anvil roller to the sonotrode during sealing).
All settings of the sealing machine are always dependent on the type being
sealed and the ambient temperature. As a result of the influence of the
individual parameters on each other, optimum settings can only be determined
by means of test sealing operations.

In addition to the sealing parameters, further functions can be allocated to each zone, which
serve to enable the automatic switch to other zones and a more exact setting of the sealing
operation sequence.
Select appropriate functions for each zone, activated functions are displayed as inverse
●
symbols on the screen.
Description of the functions
Programmed section
This function is used to determine the length of the current zone. The value in millimetres is
entered on the appropriate number block. When the function is activated, the machine swit-
ches to the next seam zone after processing the entered section.
Programmed stop
When this function is switched on, the current zone takes on a stop function. The sealing
operation stops and the machine moves to the next zone. The sealing parameters entered
for this zone are not taken into account.
Programmed output
When this function is switched on, the current zone takes on an output switch function. Two
outputs can be stipulated with the appropriate menu. The sealing parameters entered for
this zone are not taken into account.
Programmed input
When this function is switched on, the machine does not switch to another zone until an ap-
propriate input signal is given or not given. The two different inputs can be set up with the
appropriate menu.
Sealing on/off
When this function is switched on, the current zone takes on a switch function. The sealing
operation is switched off or on and the machine switches to the next zone. The sealing func-
tion remains switched off/on for the following zones, until the setting is altered again.

Input from manual/dynamic
sealing mode
●
Select acceleration and brake profile of the feed rollers, dependent on the material for
sealing. Each of the profiles selected is displayed as an inverse symbol. A flat ramp
stands for slight acceleration of the feed rollers. The selection of a steep ramp means
high acceleration.
If the sealing result is unsatisfactory, the alteration of the acceleration or brake
profile can lead to an improvement.
The values of the different acceleration and brake profiles can be stipulated in
the input mode, see Chapter 11.03.02 Feed roller parameters.

Setting the sensitivity to change in material ply
This function is used to enter the sensitivity to a change in the ply thickness. The thicker the
material (the ply change), the higher the level for this value.
These functions are used to set the time for reaction to a change in ply. This is the time
which passes from the initial recognition of a ply change to the actual reaction of the machi-
ne. The more even the structure of the work material, the lower the setting for this value.
Each time there is a change in the material ply, a signal sounds.
The setting of both values for the sensitivity is correct, if an actual ply change is
recognized reliably and quickly, and if during the sealing of the normal plies the-
re is no case of a “recognition” (no signal).

PIN. If a function is selected, for which the user does not have an authorisation, the user is
requested to enter a PIN. After the appropriate PIN has been entered, the selected function
is carried out. In addition to the 3 user groups, the control unit also recognises the so-called
"super user", who, equipped with a key-switch, has access to all functions and who is autho-
rised to stipulate the rights of access.

13.01 Notes on adjustment
All following adjustments are based on a fully assembled machine and may only be carried
out by expert staff trained for this purpose.
Machine covers, which have to be removed and replaced to carry out checks and adjust-
ments, are not mentioned in the text.
The order of the following chapters corresponds to the most logical work sequence for ma-
chines which have to be completely adjusted. If only specific individual work steps are
carried out, both the preceding and following chapters must be observed.
Screws, nuts indicated in brackets ( ) are fastenings for machine parts, which must be loose-
ned before adjustment and tightened again afterwards.
If not otherwise specified, the machine must be disconnected from the electric
and pneumatic networks for all adjustment work!
Danger of injury if the machine starts up accidentally!
13.02 Tools, gauges and other accessories
1 set of screwdrivers with blade widths from 2 to 10 mm
●
1 set of wrenches with jaw widths from 7 to 14 mm
●
1 set of Allen keys from 1.3 to 10 mm
