User Guide for Paper Cup Sleeve Machine

The beverage industry is booming and the demand for paper cup sleeves is increasing. The Paper Cup Sleeve Machine makes it possible to produce paper cup sleeves efficiently and accurately. This guide helps operators master the knowledge and skills of installation, operation, etc., to ensure the stable operation of the machine and the high quality and standard compliance of products, helping beverage packaging enterprises succeed in competition.

I. Equipment Overview
The Paper Cup Sleeve Machine is an automated device specifically used for producing paper cup sleeves. It can efficiently process paper into paper cup sleeves of various specifications and designs, playing an important role in the beverage packaging industry.
II. Preparations Before Installation
Site Selection: Select a dry, well-ventilated area with sufficient space to place the machine. Ensure that the ground is level and can bear the weight of the machine, and leave enough operating space for the operators as well as storage space for raw materials and finished products.
Power Supply: Confirm the power requirements of the machine. Generally, a stable three-phase AC power supply is needed. According to the power of the machine, equip appropriate power cords and leakage protection switches to ensure electrical safety.
Raw Material Preparation: Prepare paper raw materials that meet the requirements of the machine. The thickness, strength, and size of the paper should be within the specified range. Meanwhile, ensure an adequate supply of glue or other bonding materials (if applicable).

III. Equipment Installation
Main Body Installation: Place the main body of the Paper Cup Sleeve Machine at the selected site location according to the installation drawing. Use a level to check if the machine is placed horizontally. If necessary, adjust it by tightening or loosening the anchor bolts.
Component Connection: Connect the various components of the machine, such as the transmission system, forming device, cutting device, etc. Ensure that the connections are firm and there is no looseness. Install and debug the electrical control system according to the instructions in the manual, and connect the power cords and signal wires.
Commissioning and Inspection: After the installation is completed, conduct a preliminary commissioning. Turn on the machine and check whether the rotation directions of the motors are correct, whether the transmission system is smooth, and whether the sensors are working normally. Meanwhile, check the glue coating system (if any) for the amount of glue output and the uniformity of coating.

IV. Operating Steps
Preparations for Starting the Machine
Turn on the power switch to start the machine control system and wait for the equipment to complete the self-check program.
Check and ensure that the paper raw materials are placed in the correct position and can smoothly enter the machine's feeding system.
Check the stock of glue or other bonding materials and the normal operation of the supply system. If it is hot melt glue, it needs to be preheated to an appropriate temperature.
Parameter Setting
According to the specifications and design requirements of the paper cup sleeves to be produced, set relevant parameters on the operation panel of the machine. These parameters include the feeding length and width of the paper, the size and shape of the forming, the position and length of the cutting, etc.
Set the amount of glue coating or the bonding method (such as the temperature and pressure parameters for hot press bonding) to ensure that the paper cup sleeves are firmly bonded and look good.
Production Run
Press the start button and the machine will start to operate automatically. The paper will be automatically conveyed into the machine, passing through a series of processes such as forming, bonding (if necessary), cutting, etc., and finally producing the finished paper cup sleeves.
During the production process, the operators should closely monitor the running state of the machine, observing the feeding situation of the paper, the quality of the forming, the bonding effect, and the output situation of the finished products. If any abnormalities are found, such as paper jamming, incomplete forming, poor bonding, etc., the stop button should be pressed immediately, and the problem should be solved before restarting the production.
Quality Inspection
Regularly conduct quality inspections on the produced paper cup sleeves. The inspection contents include the dimensional accuracy of the paper cup sleeves, the integrity of the shape, the firmness of the bonding, the clarity and accuracy of the printed patterns (if any), etc.
Sort out the unqualified products and analyze the reasons for the quality problems, such as improper parameter setting, problems with raw materials, wear of machine parts, etc., and take corresponding improvement measures in time.

V. Daily Maintenance
Cleaning Work
After the production is completed every day, turn off the power of the machine and clean the dust, paper scraps, and glue residues on the surface of the machine. Use a clean rag to wipe the outer shell, operation panel, and feeding system of the machine.
Regularly clean the paper scraps and debris inside the machine, especially around the transmission system, forming device, and cutting device, to prevent them from affecting the normal operation of the machine due to excessive accumulation.
Lubrication Maintenance
According to the lubrication requirements of the machine, regularly lubricate the transmission parts, bearings, guide rails, etc. Use appropriate lubricating oil or grease and apply or inject them according to the specified dosage and method.
Check the operation of the lubrication system to ensure that the lubricating oil can be smoothly supplied to each part that needs lubrication.
Component Inspection and Replacement
Regularly inspect the various parts of the machine, such as molds, cutting tools, transmission belts, chains, etc., for wear. If any part is found to have severe wear or damage, it should be replaced in time to ensure the production accuracy and stability of the machine.
Check the connection of the electrical system to see if it is firm, and check if the wires are damaged or aged. If there is a problem, repair or replace the electrical parts in time.

VI. Trouble Shooting
Paper Jam Fault
Reason: Unsmooth paper feeding, problems with paper quality (such as wrinkling, dampness), improper adjustment of machine parts (such as inappropriate gap between the feeding rollers), etc.
Solution: Check the quality of the paper, adjust the gap between the feeding rollers, clean the debris in the feeding system, and ensure that the paper can smoothly enter the machine.
Poor Forming Fault
Reason: Mold wear, incorrect parameter setting (such as forming pressure, temperature), unmatched paper thickness, etc.
Solution: Replace the worn mold, reset the correct parameters, and check and replace the paper with the appropriate thickness.
Bonding Fault
Reason: Insufficient or uneven glue coating, insufficient bonding temperature or pressure, problems with glue quality, etc.
Solution: Adjust the amount of glue coating and its uniformity, check and adjust the bonding temperature and pressure, and replace the qualified glue.
Electrical Fault
Reason: Loose electrical connection, damaged electrical components, control system failure, etc.
Solution: Check the electrical connection, replace the damaged electrical components, and contact professional technicians to repair the control system.
By following the above user guide, operators can correctly install, operate, and maintain the Paper Cup Sleeve Machine, ensuring the efficient operation of the equipment and producing high-quality paper cup sleeve products to meet the needs of the beverage packaging industry.、
