Although CTP (Computer-to-Plate) technology is now widely used, traditional imagesetters are still in use in certain scenarios. They are particularly effective for high-volume printing jobs, repeated reprints, and when there's a limited amount of stock film to be processed. However, most manufacturers have stopped producing or converted their phototypesetting machines to CTP, making the accessories for older models scarce and expensive. This makes it even more crucial to extend the lifespan of existing equipment, reduce failure rates, and minimize downtime costs. Our factory acquired a split-type imagesetter in 2002, and in this article, I’ll share some common troubleshooting cases we’ve encountered during its operation.
Clip Box Clip
One of the most frequent issues we face is the failure of the film box clip. Here are the main causes and solutions.
1. Poor Contact Between the Receiving Motor Wheel and the Friction Wheel
Symptom: During operation, the system shows no obvious faults, but the receiving motor wheel rotates while the friction wheel moves slowly. After turning off the power, manually rotating the take-up motor wheel doesn’t move the friction wheel.
Analysis: Long-term friction between the two rubber wheels leads to wear and reduced contact. Even after adjusting the spring tension to maximum, the issue persists.
Solution: We used insulating black tape to wrap the worn friction wheel. The rough surface of the tape increases friction, and its slight adhesion helps maintain contact. After wrapping two layers and pressing them firmly, the system operates smoothly again. This method is cost-effective and easy to implement.
2. Inflexible Film Roll Shaft
Symptom: The spool feels stiff when turned, causing uneven film movement.
Analysis: Due to the machine’s large size (914mm), prolonged stress on the film roll caused deformation. This led to resistance and misalignment with the developing machine.
Solution: During development, manually pulling the film reduces the pulling force, preventing scratches and black lines. This temporary fix improves performance until a more permanent solution can be found.
3. Heavy Cassette and Broken Plastic Parts
Symptom: The cassette gets stuck, triggering an error code “06MediaJam.†Upon inspection, cracks were found in the plastic parts connecting the cassette to the machine.
Analysis: The heavy cassette (about 7kg) places significant strain on the plastic components over time, leading to fractures.
Solution: Instead of replacing the entire part, we used a modified acrylate adhesive (commonly known as “302â€) to repair the cracks. A sponge was placed under the motor to reduce stress. Careful application of the adhesive ensures strong bonding without interfering with moving parts. Regular checks and reapplication are recommended to maintain effectiveness.
These experiences highlight the importance of regular maintenance and creative problem-solving when dealing with aging equipment. By understanding the root causes and applying practical fixes, we can keep our machines running efficiently for years to come. (To be continued)
