Our grommet machines are essential tools in many industrial sectors, which is why we will answer the most common questions we receive from our customers about the operation and care of these potting machines, so you can get the most out of them.

How should I prepare the grommet machine for use?

Make sure all parts are properly installed and securely fastened, and verify that the material you are working with is correctly aligned with the grommet placement area.

What type of maintenance do the potting machines require?

Grommet machinery requires regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance over time. JOPEVI recommends performing the following actions:

  • Regular cleaning
  • Lubrication
  • Inspection of parts

How can I avoid jams when placing grommets?              

To avoid this issue, it is important to:

  • Use the correct grommet sizes.
  • Ensure that the material being worked on is properly stretched and placed without folds.
  • Do not force the machine if you feel resistance. In that case, it is better to stop the operation and check for any objects obstructing the internal parts of the machine.

You should replace these parts if you notice that the grommets are not properly secured or if there are inaccuracies in the cuts. JOPEVI offers specialized technical service to advise you on when is the best time to make these changes.
