During the peak season of ice cream sales, an efficient ice cream cone sleeve machine can greatly improve the packaging efficiency, ensuring that the delicious ice cream can be quickly delivered to customers with beautiful packaging. The following is an easy-to-understand operating guide for ice cream cone sleeve machines.
I. Preparations Before Starting the Machine
Selecting the Placement Environment
Place the ice cream cone sleeve machine on a dry, well-ventilated, and stable workbench. Avoid placing the machine near water sources or in damp areas to prevent damage to the electrical components due to moisture. Meanwhile, ensure that there is enough space around the machine for easy operation and subsequent maintenance.
Checking the Power Connection
Confirm that the voltage of the power supply connected to the machine is consistent with the rated voltage of the machine. Carefully check whether the power cord has any signs of damage or aging. If there are any problems, replace it in a timely manner. Insert the plug firmly into the socket to ensure stable power supply.
Preparing the Raw Materials
According to the production requirements, prepare a sufficient amount of paper raw materials for making ice cream cone sleeves. The paper should be flat, without wrinkles, and meet the quality requirements. Place the paper neatly on the raw material rack designated by the machine, and pay attention to the correct placement direction of the paper so that the machine can pick it up smoothly.
II. Starting the Machine and Preheating
Turning on the Power
Press the power switch of the machine, and the indicator light on the control panel will light up, indicating that the machine has started to receive power. Some Ice Cream Cone Sleeve machines may have a brief self-check process, and a prompt sound will be emitted after the self-check is completed.
Setting the Preheating
III. Adjusting the Machine Parameters
Adjusting the Size
If you need to produce ice cream cone sleeves of different sizes, you need to adjust the size of the machine's molds. Locate the size adjustment knobs or buttons on the machine and adjust the diameter and height of the molds step by step according to the operating instructions. During the adjustment process, you can use measuring tools for calibration to ensure the accuracy of the mold size. For example, if you want to make small-sized cone sleeves, reduce the size of the molds; if you want to make large-sized cone sleeves, increase the size of the molds accordingly.
Adjusting the Forming Pressure
The magnitude of the forming pressure will affect the tightness and appearance of the ice cream cone sleeves. Adjust the forming pressure according to the characteristics of the paper and the required quality of the cone sleeves. If the pressure is too low, the cone sleeves may not be formed firmly and are prone to deformation; if the pressure is too large, the paper may break. Through the pressure adjustment buttons on the control panel, gradually increase or decrease the pressure and conduct trial production to observe the forming effect of the cone sleeves until you are satisfied with the result.
IV. Formal Production
Starting the Production Program
After all the parameters have been adjusted and the machine has completed the preheating, press the "Start" button on the control panel, and the machine will start formal production. At this time, you can see that the transmission components of the machine start to operate, and the paper is automatically picked up and sent into the forming molds.
Collecting the Finished Products
The formed ice cream cone sleeves will be automatically output from the exit of the machine. Place a suitable collecting container, such as a tray or a cardboard box, under the exit to neatly collect the finished products. Regularly clean the collecting container to avoid that the piled-up cone sleeves are too high to affect the normal operation of the machine or cause damage to the finished products.
V. Shutting Down the Machine and Cleaning & Maintenance
Shutting Down the Machine
When the production task is completed, first press the "Stop" button on the control panel to stop the machine from running. Then turn off the power switch and unplug the power cord plug.
Maintenance Inspection
Regularly check the transmission components of the Ice Cream Cone Sleeve machine, such as belts and chains, to see if there are any signs of loosening, wearing, or aging. If there are any problems, promptly adjust or replace them. Meanwhile, check whether the connections of the electrical components are firm and whether the sensors are working normally. Lubricate the lubrication points of the machine appropriately to ensure the smooth running of the machine.
Through the above simple operating steps, you can proficiently use the ice cream cone sleeve machine to add efficient packaging assistance to your ice cream business.
