4. User Manual and Handling Instructions

To ensure optimal sealing performance and packaging efficiency, follow the recommended guidelines for storage, handling, and application.

Storage Conditions

• Store rolls in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight.
• Ideal storage temperature: 15°C–30°C with relative humidity below 70%.
• Keep rolls in their original packaging until ready for use to prevent contamination and dust buildup.

Pre-Use Preparation

• Allow rolls to acclimate to the production environment for at least 24 hours before use.
• Ensure that the sealing surface of containers or trays is clean and free of grease, dust, or moisture.
• Inspect film tension and alignment on the sealing machine before production begins.

Sealing Recommendations

• Sealing Temperature: 120°C–200°C (depending on film type and sealing substrate).
• Sealing Pressure: 2–4 bar (adjust based on machine specifications).
• Dwell Time: 0.5–1.5 seconds (may vary by application).
• Always perform trial runs to confirm proper adhesion and peel strength.

Post-Sealing Inspection

• Check seals for uniform adhesion and absence of wrinkles or air bubbles.
• Perform peel tests to confirm consistent opening force.
• Verify that printed areas remain undamaged and legible after sealing.

5. Installation and Setup Process

Proper installation of Printed Lidding Film rolls is essential for achieving consistent sealing and print alignment.

Step-by-Step Installation Guide

• Machine Preparation: Turn off the sealing machine and ensure all safety protocols are followed. Clean the rollers, sealing plates, and sensors.
• Mounting the Roll: Place the film roll on the unwinder shaft, ensuring the print direction matches the sealing line orientation. Secure the core firmly in place.
• Film Threading: Guide the film through rollers and tension control units following the machine’s threading diagram. Make sure the film runs smoothly without folds or creases.
• Tension Adjustment: Adjust the web tension to prevent film stretching or misalignment. Maintain consistent tension throughout the production process.
• Sealing Temperature Calibration: Set the temperature based on film composition and tray material. Start from the lower range and gradually increase until optimal sealing strength is achieved.
• Test Run: Conduct several test seals and evaluate peeling quality, seal integrity, and print registration accuracy. Make adjustments as necessary.
• Production Start: Once settings are optimized, begin full-scale production. Continuously monitor sealing consistency and replace rolls as needed.
