Section III: Press Preparation
1. In order to automaticall raise the base roll when the press runs, the HP-3002 temperature control unit needs to be
supplied with a source of power when the press is in “RUN” mode only. This source of power is referred to as the slave
line. Power for the slave line ma be 90-280 volts A/C. There is no appreciable load on the slave line and #16/2 wire
ma be used for this connection. A mini twist-lock connector is included for proper connection to the temperature
control unit.
2. Main s stem power supplied to the control unit must be rated at 30 amps, 208-240 volts, single phase, A/C. The suppl
circuit must be fused for 30 amp service, and #12/3 wire is recommended for this connection. The control unit must be
properl grounded to reduce the risk of electric shock hazard. A 30 amp twist-lock connector is included for proper
connection to the control unit.
3. Air supplied to the control unit must be clean, dry, and reg lated to 80-100 p.s.i. Air/line connectors are included for
proper connection to the unit.
4. The base roll assembl supplied with the s stem should be test-fitted in the intended die station. Position the base roll
assembl in the station and check for interference and proper alignment with the die station drive-gear. Proper fit and
drive gear mesh are critical elements in the s stem. The base roll should sit level in the station, and the drive gear should
not bottom out into the base roll gear.

Section IV: System Assembly
A. Assembling Roll Die to Die Shaft:
(applies only to 13” systems and above, for 10” systems see “Ill strated Parts” section).
1. On a clean, level bench; prepare the die for assembl b gentl placing it in the “V” blocks provided. Ensuring the
blocks are located under the bearers of the die and not on the image.
2. Remove the bearing block from the press side of the die shaft assembl and set the block aside.
3. Slide the shaft assembl into the die and align slots in the die bearer and hot stamp journal.
4. Install the three (3) or four (4) 10-24 socket head cap screws supplied and tighten thoroughl .
5. Re-assemble the bearing block onto the end of the die shaft.
B. Assembling Components in Die Station:
1. Install the base roll assembl into the station to be used, and check for proper drive gear mesh.
2. Install the die shaft assembl in the station, making sure the proper gear mesh is achieved.
3. Install the die assist assembl in the station checking for the correct bearing alignment with the hot stamp die.
4. The lateral register adjusting plates have been left at their outermost (loosest) position to facilitate an eas first time
fitting in the station. To adjust these plates, appl slight outward pressure to the shaft assembl and adjust the plates
for a snug slide fit on the side frame. Be sure retaining screws are tight.
5. Install pressure screws in the usual manner. Do NOT attempt to tighten the pressure screws until the hot stamp die
has reached its operating temperature. The hot stamp die operating temperature will be specific to each run job and
die.
NOTE: No more than 300 lbs./side of pressure should be applied at an given time. Excessive pressure will result in
premature bearing failure and possible tooling damage.

Section IV: System Assembly
C. Connections:
1. Position the HP-3002 temperature control unit on a flat, level surface near the intended station and within eas reach
of the operator.
2. Connect power cord to die shaft assembl b inserting plug into receptacle and turning clockwise to lock. Repeat
procedure at control unit.
3. Connect air lines labeled “A” and “B” to their corresponding outputs on the control unit b pushing line squarel
and firml into fitting. Repeat procedure at respective fittings on base roll actuator.
4. Connect air line labeled “C” to the cooling output on the temperature control unit. And to the air inlet on the die
shaft assembl .
5. Connect the infrared thermocouple lead to the socket on the control unit, aligning the wide and narrow blades of the
plug with their corresponding slots in the socket.
NOTE: Please be sure to route all cables and air lines carefull ! Personal injur and/or damage to the equipment could
result from lines or cables becoming caught in moving parts!
D. Thermoco ple Positioning:
1. Gentl insert thermocouple into mounting block b rotating the block around the thermocouple until it is full
threaded into the block.
2. Carefull snap the mounting block into the die assist assembl b inserting the “C” channel end of the block around
one die assist shaft, then rotate the block down to lock into place against the opposite shaft.
3. Once the thermocouple has been properl mounted on the die assist assembl , it should slide smoothl along the die
assist bar.
4. Position the thermocouple as far at an angle that the brackets will allow with the tip of the sensor targeted at the
black stripe located on the hot stamp die. If the thermocouple is not targeted at the black stripe on the die it will not
accuratel read the die temperature which will result in poor print qualit .
NOTE: This is an extremel important element in overall print qualit ! An improperl positioned thermocouple can, and
will, cancel all attempts to attain print qualit and consistenc ! Please remember that the thermoco ple m st be pointed
directly at the black stripe on the die to work properly.

Section V: System Start p and Adj stments
NOTE: Foil positioning, tension, and process temperature will all var somewhat depending on differences in print patterns,
substrates, press speeds, foil performance, etc. Some experimentation ma be necessar to obtain the best results with our
application. For the reasons listed above, the following instructions have been left intentionall brief.
1. Web press as usual, then web the foil from the unwind through a web idler approximatel 3-5 inches ahead of the station,
then along the web through the die and base roll. Strip the foil about 2-3 inches after the die and to the waste wind-up.
The foil should lie flat against the web as it enters the die, with little or no wrinkling during operation. The distance
from the die where the foil joins and leaves the web will var according to the actual application, but the foil needs to be
“paced” with the web at some point, to keep the foil from traveling faster than the web. See Figure 1 and Figure 2 on the
following pages for a basic webbing diagram.
2. Make sure the MAIN POWER switch is in the “OFF” position. Connect the power to the control unit and turn the
MAIN POWER switch to the “ON” position. After an initial diagnostic check, the temperature control module will
displa the current set point in the middle displa and the current die temperature in the upper displa .
3. Set the desired process temperature (consult our foil manufacturer) b pressing the UP or DOWN buttons until the
desired temperature appears in the “SET” displa . Press the ENTER ke to lock in the new set point. If ou do not press
the ENTER ke within 5-10 seconds after ke ing in a change, the control module will return to the previous set point.
4. As the die nears the set point, run the press at 50-75 FPM. Turn the impression mode switch on the control unit to the
“AUTO” position and observe the action of the base roll to be sure it rises to the print position.
5. Bring the die into contact with the web and appl slight pressure with the pressure adjusting screws. Note print qualit
and current die temperature. Lock pressure-adjusting screws, but do not over tighten.
6. Adjust an other press operations as necessar , in accordance with standard operating procedures.
7. After all other press operations have been adjusted for qualit and register, graduall increase press speed, adjusting
pressure and temperature to maintain foil print qualit .
