Introduction
This troubleshooting guide addresses issues related to the movement of the suction cup post. If you are experiencing problems such as misalignment, lack of lubrication, or a non-functioning cylinder, follow the steps below to identify the cause and implement corrective actions.
Common Issues and Corrective Actions
Issue | Possible Cause | Corrective Action |
1. Misalignment of the Suction Cup Post | Cylinder misalignment | 1. Loosen the 4 bolts connecting the cylinder to the machine under the cartons hooper. 2. Run the jog feature and realign the cylinder by tightening the screws during suction cup movement. |
2. Lack of Lubrication for Linear Bearing Rail | Unlubricated linear bearing rail | 1. Lubricate the linear bearing rail supporting the suction cup post. 2. Place the machine in manual mode, move the suction cups backward using the knob, and manually push the arm back and forth on the rail. |
3. Non-functioning Cylinder | Bad or malfunctioning cylinder | 1. Loosen the 4 bolts at the bottom of the suction cup post and disconnect it from the extended post of the cylinder. 2. Move the suction cup post manually and lubricate the rail. 3. Test the jog feature; if the cylinder doesn't retract or extend, replace the cylinder. |
Detailed Steps:
-
Misalignment of the Suction Cup Post:
-
- If the suction cup post is misaligned, loosen the 4 bolts connecting the cylinder to the machine under the cartons hooper.
- Run the jog feature and tighten the screws during suction cup movement to realign the cylinder.
- If the suction cup post is misaligned, loosen the 4 bolts connecting the cylinder to the machine under the cartons hooper.

Lack of Lubrication for Linear Bearing Rail:
-
- Lubricate the linear bearing rail supporting the suction cup post.
- Place the machine in manual mode, move the suction cups backward using the knob, and manually push the arm post toward the door.
- Lubricate the linear bearing rail supporting the suction cup post.
-
-
Non-functioning Cylinder:
-
- Loosen the 4 bolts at the bottom of the suction cup post and disconnect it from the extended post of the cylinder.
- Manually move the suction cup post, lubricate the rail, and test the jog feature.
- If the cylinder doesn't retract or extend, replace the cylinder.
- Loosen the 4 bolts at the bottom of the suction cup post and disconnect it from the extended post of the cylinder.
-
Additional Tips:
- Regularly inspect and maintain the suction cup post components to prevent issues.
- Lubricate the linear bearing rail periodically to ensure smooth movement.
