Application Equipment IR-1891 Shuttle Machine — Twin Workstation Heater for Multiple Installation of Short Length Tubing Products Product Facts Automatic cycle start once heater is manually positioned over product, which gives improved process control (recommended for adhesive lined heat-shrinkable tubing e.g. sealing applications) n Automatic heating head retraction at end of cycle prevents damage to components n Multiple product fixture assemblies give increased process rates n Cooling fan above each fixture assembly maintains holding fixture at an acceptable temperature n Applications The IR-1891 is suitable for the installation of a range of Raychem brand heatshrinkable tubing products onto a variety of small components, e.g. ring terminals, FASTON terminals and small connectors etc. The machine is provided with two work stations and a moveable heating head. Available in: The IR-1891-220V-ShuttleRetn is provided with closed loop temperature control and in addition the heat head is ‘locked’ into position by use of an electromagnet during the heating cycle. Once the other workstation has been loaded and the first installation is complete, the heat head is moved into position over the product and the next heating cycle initiated. Heating times vary typically from 3 to 30 seconds depending on the size and type of tubing product. Process rates up to 1200 pieces/hour can be Americas Europe achieved depending on the heating time and the time taken by the operator to load unload the workpieces. The installation temperature/power can be varied according to product type/size and required cycle times. The heating elements, which are continuously energized, are of the infrared medium wave length type and consist of a coiled resistance wire contained in quartz glass tubes. The closed loop temperature control uses similar elements but having integral thermocouple sensors. 10 Application Equipment Each workstation is provided with supports for tooling fixtures (which must be specified and ordered separately). These support the workpieces and locate the tubing products. The operator loads the workpieces into the fixtures at one of the workstations, ensures that the tubing product is correctly positioned and then slides the heat head into position before initiating the heating cycle. The operator then continues with loading/ unloading the other work station whilst the heating cycle is taking place.
