Arch Strapping Machine Service & Repair

Regular maintenance can help a strapping machine run smoothly and extend its lifespan.

The longer your strapping machine is down, the more it costs you – so it is essential to get it back up and running as soon as possible.

Broken strapping machines can be costly for your business. Here are some of the most common problems with strapping machines – and how to fix them.

Your Strapping Machine Will Not Start:  If your strapping machine will not start, there are a couple of things to look at. Check the fuse in the power supply cable, and the fuse in the machine itself. Often, this is located next to the motor run timer.

It sounds simple, but it’s always worth double-checking that the machine is turned on – both on the machine and at the wall.

The Strap Keeps Breaking:  If the strap keeps breaking, splitting, or bending, your machine might be applying too much tension. Reducing the tension on your machine will solve this problem.

It Makes a Loud Noise:  If your machine is making an unusual, loud noise, it is a sign something is wrong. Check that your strapping is running in the right direction. If the machine fails to strap, the tensioning sensor might be faulty.

For semi-automatic machines, ensure the strap is threaded through the roller of the brake lever. You should also check if the strap is trapped between the coil and the retaining disc.

Smoke Is Coming from The Machine:  Smoke coming from your machine is an obvious sign of fault. You should check your machine’s ventilation – ensure it is free from debris to allow air to pass through.  If the ventilation system on your machine has failed, you may need to install a replacement part.

The Strap Cannot Be Threaded to the Tabletop:  The strap chute can become blocked, preventing you from threading the strap through to the tabletop of your machine. With the machine off, inspect the chute to ensure there are no blockages and adjust the quadrant strap width to ensure the strapping is aligned correctly.

If you are unable to fix your strapping machine yourself, it is time to call in the experts. At Quick Pak Inc, our team of professional engineers aim to repair the fault on their first visit to your site to reduce downtime.  Or you have the option to drop the machine off at the service center for repair.
