In addition, there are the feeding table, the feeding head, fixed face stops, first gate, side stackers, feeding roller, and the second gate. The feeder serves the purpose of stacking paper sheets, and is operated by roller chains guided by two leading spindles.
Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual Operations 5.2.1 Sheet stacking Face stacking The correct face position of the paper stack on the feeding table is provided by the face stackers ( a ), and the first gate ( b ). The sheets must be pushed tight against the surface of the face stackers. One should make sure that the paper doesn't bend, which can cause problems in the feeding process.
Operations Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual Side stacking The collation of paper pile on the sides is done by side stackers ( c ), which are placed symmetrically. A slight play must be allowed between the ledges and the paper pile to prevent damage to the paper and improper feeding. The side stackers are controlled by the knob ( d ) on the operator's side. The arrow indicates ( e ) the direction of turning for the changing of sheet size.
Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual Operations 5.2.2 Feeder table positioning When the paper pile has been loaded, press the “ FEEDER STACK/ PILE UP ” button. The table ( f) starts lifting, and its top position is determined by the Paper Pile Height Sensor ( g ), adjust so that the first gate exceeds the height of the paper by 6 mm. ATTENTION The capacity sensor may be adjusted by a qualified service technician only.
Operations Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual 5.2.3 The feeding head WARNING WARNING: Press the stop button before performing the following set-up procedure! Feeding head setup Loosen the clamp ( a ) using the handle bar ( b ). Push the head to its back position, away from the machine.

Move the strip ( e ) to the stack so that its front edge is 5 to 7 mm within the paper and 4 to 6 mm above it. For various paper weights ( e ) must be set to provide for correct paper sheets separation.
Operations 3/ Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual Set up the center suction cups ( g ) by adjusting strips ( e ) so the paper sheets between the cups are tight. g 4/ e g Depending on the paper type, adjust vacuum as needed to lift the sheets via the transport suction cups by turning the regulator on the Becker compressor. The amount of vacuum can be observed on the manometer ( h ).
Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual 6/ Operations Adjust air blowing tubes ( k ) by turning the nut ( l ) so that 10 - 20 sheets at the top of the stack are feathered. l k 7/ Regulator ( m ) sets up the stack height.
Operations Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual Feeding small sheet sizes WARNING WARNING: Press the stop button before performing the following set-up procedure! To feed small sizes of paper sheets, less than the distance between the outside suction cups ( n ), you must loosen the screw ( o ) and rotate the two outside suction cups ( n ) 90 degrees forward then secure in place by tightening the screws ( o ).
Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual Operations 5.2.4 First gate WARNING CAUTION: Only a qualified service technician may adjust the first gate. The first gate assembly is calibrated at the factory and may be field calibrated by a qualified service technician only. Refer to Section 8 Maintenance. Function of the first gate The first gate ( a ) positions the paper ream so that the front is always vertical.
Operations Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual 5.2.5 Feed roller assembly The assembly consists of gravity rollers ( a), accelerating rollers ( b ), plate holders ( c ) and the sheet overlap sensor ( d ). d c a a c b b Gravity rollers e The gravity rollers are always touching the paper pressing it against the feed rollers. The position is factory set, and remains unchanged for all sizes of paper. For higher paper weights the pressure has to be increased.
Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual Operations Accelerating rollers WARNING CAUTION: The position of the rollers are set at the factory and does not require changing, regardless of sheet size. Accelerating rollers increase the pressure on the feeding roller at the moment the second gate drops out of the way. Allowing equal pressure to feed paper stock evenly to the chrome roller and pressure roller area. The moment of pressure is controlled by the control system and has been factory set.
Operations Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual Plate holders The plate holders keeps the paper sheet on the lower guiding plate to prevent it from jumping over the second gate. Positioning: The machine has three hold-down fingers in total. The position of the middle one does not change and is factory set. The position of the extreme two change with respect to the size of sheet, and is adjusted to be about 10 mm distant from the edge of paper, after the screw ( h ) has been loosened.
Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual Operations Sheet misfeed sensor The sheet misfeed sensor protects the supporting laminating roller from the laminating adhesive. Check its function daily. To check the sensor, follow the procedure below. 1/ Take a single sheet of paper, insert it under the sensor ( l ). 2/ Block the sensor repeatedly by sliding the sheet of paper in and out from under the sensor. 3/ The proper function is signaled by the sensor LED, which lights up accordingly.
Operations Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual Overlap adjustment WARNING WARNING: Only person(s) trained in all aspects of the equipment may perform any operator adjustments. WARNING CAUTION: NEVER TURN THE DIAL ( t ) WHEN THE MACHINE IS STOPPED! For each paper size, the speed of the feeding head must be adjusted.

Troubleshooting Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual 7.1 Lamination troubleshooting Blistering Cause: A condition where the paper coating is bubbled up from the image paper causing a “blister”. It is created by using excessive heat during the lamination process. Blistering is most commonly found with photographic and ink jet media. Solution: Blistering can be avoided by ensuring you are using the correct operating parameters for the media type and film type being used.
Obit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual Troubleshooting Delamination Cause: Refers to either one of two conditions; 1) the adhesive separating from the laminate substrate, or 2) the laminate separating from the product being laminated. Solution: Delamination is eliminated by using the correct type of film for the type of media being used and setting the machine to the optimal operating parameters.
Troubleshooting Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual 7.2 Wave pattern troubleshooting Waves or ripples in laminated images can be caused by; paper tension, laminating temperature, incorrect nip, clutch tension, binding of film core on brakes or core ends, and cooling. Below is a description of some common waves. Please refer to the wave illustration associated with each description.
Obit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual Troubleshooting Paper pull tension ( Wave 2 & 4 ) Cause: These patterns are caused by too little ( Wave 2 ) or too much ( Wave 4 ) tension of the laminated material between the laminating rollers and the pull rollers. Solution: To remove these waves, adjust the paper pull adjustment and/or laminating roller pressure. Brake tension ( Wave 5 ) Cause: These are straight bands across the image, usually at uneven intervals and are usually minimal to excessive.
Troubleshooting Orbit™ 2000 Operation and Maintenance Manual Wrinkles on either edge after the pressure roller ( Wave 9 ) Cause: Air pressure on the pressure roller from side to side may require off setting. Solution: To prevent this type of waving, off set the pressure roller by adjusting the air regulators on the pressure rollers. No pattern wrinkles after the pressure roller ( Wave 10 ) Cause: Excessive film tension may be applied to the web of film traveling around the chrome roller.
