I PREFACE I

Before taking this machine into operation, please carefully read this service manual.

This service manual represents an integral part of the machine described therein. When the
machine is removed (transferred to other plants, sold to other firms, etc.), this service manual
must accompany the machine.
To avoid operating faults, these service manual must always be accessible for the service
staff.

During construction, selection of materials and manufacture of this machine, all safety regula-
tions were taken into consideration.
A perfect running during a long time can only be assured by a certain expenditure of mainte-
nance. This expenditure, which has been limited to the absolutely necessary minimum, is a
basic requirement for the long working life of the machine.
To preserve the operational safety, repair works should only be effected by a well trained and
technically qualified personnel and by using the original Trützschler spare parts. For ordering
the original Trützschler spare parts please use the spare parts catalogue belonging to the ma-
chine.
Maintenance and repair works may only be carried out with the machine being stopped and
secured. Never try to eliminate a malfunction or to do a repair work without having the re-
quired experience.

After having carried out maintenance or repair works, take care that all protection and safety
devices are correctly mounted again.
Also make sure that waste oil is collected in an environmentally acceptable manner. Exces-
sive oil or grease on lubricating points or on machine parts must be removed after the com-
pletion of the lubrication work. Oil or grease dropped on the floor must be removed immedi-
ately.
The general statutory safety and accident prevention regulations, which might be different for
each country, must be strictly followed during the operation of the machine. Please also ob-
serve the further safety instructions included in this service manual. You are also requested
to hand over to your operating and service staff the general safety and accident prevention
instructions included in this service manual.

All technical details, dimensions and illustrations of this service manual are non-obligatory.
It is not possible to derive any claims or rights therefrom. We reserve the right to make techni-
cal changes within the course of development of the machine covered by these service
manual, without changing this service manual.
The German version is the authoritative version of the service manual.

We also reserve the copyright of these service manual.

Accident prevention instructions

II.1 Training

Persons employed on textile machinery, especially on tearing and willowing machines and
cards, must be instructed for safe working on these machines. Refer also to “Accident Preven-
tion Regulation for Machines, Plants ...,” VBG 7v, w 33.
Training of the staff concerned must be repeated at regular intervals (every 6 months). A
corresponding training certificate must be issued.

Set-up and maintenance of textile machines as well as the correction of faults on textile ma-
chines may be entrusted to a technically qualified personnel only. Refer also to “Accident Pre-
vention Regulation for Machines, Plants ...” VBG 7v, w 34.

II.2 Start-up of the machine

Prior to the first start-up of the machine and also after maintenance and modification work,
the machine must be carefully checked by technically qualified personnel for its proper opera-
tional safety and eventual accident risks.
Before starting the machine, persons in the danger zone of the machine must be warned and
requested to leave this area.

Modifications on the machine may only be undertaken in co-ordination with M/s.

TRÜTZSCHLER and under the supervision of a technically qualified staff.

II.3 Safeguarding the machine stoppage

Set-up and maintenance work on the machine as well as the correction of malfunctions may
only be performed when the machine is isolated from the power supply and has come to a
standstill.
Any unauthorized, inadvertant or negligent re-connection of the power supply and starting-up
of the machine during this work, especially in the case of machine groups on which visual
control and communication are impeded, must be prevented by precautionary measures ap-
propriate to local circumstances.
Even the loosening of one screw is regarded as maintenance work. In accordance with valid
accident prevention regulations, the machine must be isolated from the power supply during
maintenance work so that a starting-up is impossible.

The master switches of the switch and control cabinets must be set to “0” and must be locked.

II.4 Safety switches

Doors and opening covers giving access to drives and potentially dangerous opening and
cleaning rolls are provided with safety switches. When these doors or covers are opened,
these safety switches de-energize the machine drives.
These safety switches must always be operational. Starting-up the machines with a defective
safety mechanism is not permitted.

II.5 Walking on the machine and working above, below and on the machine or
parts of the machine

Walking on the machine or on parts of the machine and working above below and on the ma-
chine or parts of the machine (e.g. ceiling or lighting work or servicing, adjustment or mainte-
nance) are forbidden during operation.
If it is necessary to walk on the machine or to carry out work above, below or on the machine
or parts of the machine when the machine is stopped, it must be protected for this purpose,
prior to starting the work, with solid slip-resistant footboards (supporting trestles, wooden
boards, plastic plates or similar) and appropriate safety railings must be established.
For safeguarding the stationary machines refer to Section “3. Safeguarding the machine stop-
page”.

II.6 Auxiliary equipment for the operation, adjustment and maintenance of the
machine

If auxiliary equipment is needed for the servicing, adjustment or maintenance of the machines
(ladders, poles, supporting trestles, hooks or similar), these must be in an accident-proof
condition and must be used in a safe manner.
The inappropriate and potentially dangerous use of auxiliary equipment of any kind on the
machines is inadmissible.

II.7 Control cabinets and electrical equipment on the machines

All control cabinets are fitted with lockable doors. The doors must always be securely locked,
and the double-bit key must be kept by a responsible person (chief electrician).

Only trained staff may have access to the control cabinets, who are familiar with the electrical
equipment and its dangers.

Work on control cabinets and electrical equipment may only be entrusted to technically quali-
fied personnel.
ATTENTION
For the safe operation of electrical equipment, please also refer to VDE 0.100 w 3,
Chapter F, Sec. 2 and/or the relevant local regulations in force.

2.3 Safety and monitoring equipment

2.3.1.1 Safety mechanism of doors

All doors are provided with spagnolet locks and can
only be opened with a special key.
The doors on the right-hand machine side are safe-
guarded with a safety restraint device.
This safety restraint device ensures that these doors
can only be opened after the beater roll has come to
a standstill.
The doors on the left-hand machine side are
equipped with limit switches. When these doors are
opened, the feed unit drive is switched off immedi-
ately and the machine is stopped.
It is not possible to put the machine into operation
when the doors are open.

2.3.1.2 Safety mechanism for flap

The delivery trunk of the Feeding Unit BE 963 has a
flap on the right-hand side of the machine.
This maintenance flap is safeguarded electrically by
means of a limit switch which stops the feed rolls of
the next downstream machine immediately when
this maintenance flap is opened.
During cleaning work, this prevents that hands may
get into the running feed unit of the next downstream
machine.

2.3.1.3 Speed monitor for beater roll

Two proximity switches (standstill monitor) are fitted
at the drive of the beater roll [! 2.2--2].
Only if, after a switch-off of the drives, impulses do
not appear anymore, then these safety switches will
release.

In the case of feeding via Condenser LVSA, one light
barrier, transmitter (2) and receiver (1), is installed at
the window of the reserve trunk. This light barrier can
be displaced in height.
When the material is fed via a Material Separator
MAS, then the light barrier is stationary-mounted in
1 the upper area of the reserve trunk.
3 A second light barrier is fixed-mounted in the feed
trunk and serves to monitor the minimum filling level.

The Feeding Unit BE 963 does not have its own con-
trol system and is not equipped with any operating el-
ements.
Operation of the Feeding Unit BE 963 is only poss-
ible via the:
- Machine control of the next downstream ma-
chine
- Higher-order control system (e.g. Electrical
Control EGS; Electronic Installation Control
EAS)

The control of the Feeding Unit BE and of the next

downstream machine must switch on the drives of
the machines in the following order:
1. Drives of the next downstream machine
2. Drives of the Feeding Unit BE
To avoid material clogging after switching off the
material feeding, the drives of the Feeding Unit
BE 963 and of the next downstream machine must
have a deferred coasting cycle.

The Feeding Unit BE 963 is fed with material from

above. A Condenser LVSA or a Material Separator
MAS, which is mounted on the BE 963, throws the
material into the reserve trunk (1).
From here, the material is drawn into the machine by
4 rolls (2) and is carried to the beater roll (3).
The beater roll (opening roll) opens the material; it is
equipped with 6 spiked bars.
The opened material is thrown into the discharge box
(delivery trunk) (5) where it quiets down and is de-
posited on the delivery belt (4) in form of a uniform
web.
The delivery belt then forwards the material web to
the feed unit of the next downstream machine.
The material quantity of the reserve trunk is con-
trolled by means of two light barriers. If the BE 963
is fed with material via a LVSA, the light barrier (6a)
is installed at the window of the reserve trunk and can
be displaced in height. When the material is fed via
a MAS, then the light barrier (6b) is fixed--mounted
in the reserve trunk.
The second light barrier (6) serves to monitor the
minimum filling level to avoid that the reserve trunk
is emptied and it is also fixed--mounted.
