Hi guys, my question is regarding a vertical baler (paper crusher). The initial problem was that when pressing the start button to begin the crushing process nothing was happening. The company who supplied the machine 10 years ago will not send me the schematics. After checking the obvious, I started tracing wires, i then discovered a pressure switch on the back of the machine which even though the ram was under no pressure, was in a normally open state. I then bypassed the switch to find that the problem seemed to be fixed. I obviously had to stop the crusher manually with the latching stop. I then realised that the limit switch on the ram was not stopping the downward movement, which it surely must, even though I have bridged the pressure switch.
Any idea's guys. The machine in question is a single phase VB 56 Baler supplied by a company called Pakawaste.
Thanks
