Material Capacity

Single Film Thickness: 1.0mm to 3.0mm – optimized for HDPE, LDPE, PP, PVC and other thermoplastic materials

Outstanding Features and Capabilities

Advanced Hot Wedge Structure

The suspended hot wedge design with spring-type upper guide wheels provides superior adaptability to varying material thicknesses and surface irregularities, ensuring consistent heat distribution and optimal weld formation.

Extended Speed Range

Operating from 1 to 8 meters per minute, the IZ-960 offers the widest speed range in its class, enabling maximum productivity on large projects while maintaining precise control for critical applications.

Generous Overlap Width

The 14cm overlap width with dual 12mm weld seams separated by an 18mm cavity creates exceptionally robust lap joints with ample space for quality testing and verification.

Fast Heating Technology

Advanced heating elements provide rapid temperature rise and precise control from 0°C to 550°C, reducing preheating time and improving overall project efficiency.

Parameter Memory Function

The welding machine automatically stores the last used parameters, eliminating the need to reset temperature and speed settings on each startup, improving consistency and reducing setup time.

Dual Digital Display System

Separate displays for temperature (ST/CT) and speed (SV/CV) show both set values and actual values simultaneously, enabling real-time monitoring and precise parameter management.

Comprehensive Setup Procedures

Critical Pressure Adjustment

Understanding Pressure Requirements: Correct pressure is essential for high-quality welding results while providing sufficient drive wheel traction. The thicker the material, especially rough-surfaced materials, the greater the pressure required.

Step-by-Step Pressure Adjustment:

1. Initial Preparation: Confirm hot wedge is in standby position. Rotate pressure adjustment nut (9) clockwise several turns and lift pressure arm.
2. Single Layer Testing: Place one layer of material (about 3cm) between driving wheels. Press pressure rod to correct position and fasten locking pin. Material should move without resistance.
3. Zeroing Procedure: Turn nut (9) counterclockwise until driving wheel contacts material and cannot turn by hand. This establishes the zero point.
4. Final Adjustment: Lift pressure arm and disengage drive wheel. Rotate counterclockwise one more full turn.
5. Verification Test: Place folded material (two layers thickness) between drive wheels until locking pin pops into hole. Drag material to confirm adequate pressure. If material can be extracted, loosen drive wheel and turn adjusting nut counterclockwise by one-third turn.

Caution for Thin Materials: Thin materials require less pressure. Excessive pressure causes material fracture from weld edge due to shear effects. Always start conservatively and increase gradually.

Upper Guide Wheel Configuration

Factory Configuration: The IZ-960 comes configured for welding HDPE film materials of 1.5-2.5mm thickness. Unless necessary to change material range, maintain factory settings.

Adjustment Procedure:

• Upper guide wheel (10) is located above hot wedge at pressure arm bottom
• Changing shrapnel number varies guide wheel tightness
• Requires loosening baffle screws and guide wheel mounting screws
• Adjust hot wedge position during process

Lower Guide Wheel Setup

Critical Positioning: The relationship between hot wedge and lower drive wheel (14) is most important. Distance between hot wedge tip and driving wheel should be slightly greater than film thickness.

Adjustment Steps:

1. Lift pressure arm and insert material to be welded
2. Fold material in half and place on upper and lower hot wedge faces
3. Remove lower chain cover (13) to expose front lower guide wheel (11) screws
4. Use Allen wrench to loosen fixing screw and rotate front lower guide wheel downward
5. Use 13mm wrench to adjust rear lower guide wheel (12) height, which controls hot wedge position
6. Set appropriate clearance and tighten all screws

Important Warnings:

• If rear lower guide wheel set too high: insufficient hot wedge clearance causes material clamping and welding pressure loss
• For thin materials or high temperatures: set front lower guide wheel more loosely to reduce material contact time and prevent overheating

Hot Wedge Position Setting

Set travel limit position when pressure arm is pressed with hot wedge in welding position. If tip is too close to driving wheel, the wheel will clamp hot wedge tip when pressing down, reducing welding pressure and potentially causing equipment damage.

Operating Procedures

Power-Up Sequence

1. Voltage Verification: Confirm voltage, wire specifications, and length before connecting power
2. Power Switch: Turn on power switch (1) – display screens show set and actual values for temperature and speed
3. Motor Activation: Turn on motor switch (2) and keep running during operation to prevent drive wheel overheating at specific positions

Temperature Setting

After power-on, temperature display shows set value (ST) and actual value (CT). Long press or tap “+/-” buttons with thermometer symbol to set desired temperature. Turn on heating switch (3) to begin rapid heating cycle.

Speed Configuration

Speed display screen shows set speed (SV) and actual speed (CV). Long press or tap “+/-” buttons with walk symbol to set desired welding speed.

Parameter Memory

The IZ-960 automatically remembers last-used parameters, eliminating need for reset on subsequent startups and ensuring consistency across multiple work sessions.

Safety Requirements and Precautions

General Safety Instructions

Electrical Safety:

• IZ-960 is a high-voltage device requiring disconnection during maintenance
• Never drag welding machine by power cord
• Keep power cord stress-free during welding to prevent wire tearing
• Ensure proper grounding and voltage consistency with rated specifications

Thermal Safety:

• Avoid touching hot welding wedges with hands or body parts
• Keep equipment away from flammable and explosive materials
• Allow 5-10 minutes cooling before returning equipment to packaging
• Equipment generates high temperatures – maintain safe distances from combustible objects

Operational Safety:

• Equipment must be operated under professional supervision
• Children and non-qualified personnel prohibited from operation
• Strictly prohibited to construct in direct contact with rainwater or muddy areas
• Pay attention to waterproofing and moisture prevention during use and storage

Proper Use Requirements

Operator Qualifications: Appointed operators must read and familiarize themselves with manual before starting work. For safety reasons, never modify equipment without authorization. Voltage measurements must be performed by professionals.

Power Requirements: The IZ-960 rated at 220V operates normally between 208-240V. This voltage range refers to actual connected voltage at welding machine or voltage at machine end of power extension line.

Voltage Measurement Method: Connect extension wire, start welding machine, turn on heating and driving switches. When heating normally, slightly pull out plug to expose socket connector and measure voltage with voltmeter.

Generator Specifications

On-Site Generator Requirements: Must maintain power over 3500W. Recommend using 5000W or higher capacity generator to maximize welding machine performance and achieve better temperature control. Higher generator power provides more stable machine performance.

Wire Specifications: Regardless of length, use grounding wire with cross-sectional area of 3×1.5 square meters minimum. Wire cross-sectional area should exceed rated equipment power range.

Leakage Protection: For operator personal safety and reliable equipment operation, strongly recommend connecting equipment to regulated power supply with leakage protection device.

Maintenance and Repair

Regular Maintenance Requirements

After Each Use:

• Clean sand and debris from drive wheels and hot wedge immediately
