Are the mounting springs (holding the elements) in tact and in good condition? Make sure that the spring the element mounts on is intact. Replace if damaged. Please check also that the mounting spring is not rusted or worn in any way as this will prevent the element from conducting heat.
How do you heat seal without a heat sealer?
How does heat sealing work?
A heat sealing machine is a type of sealer which uses heat as a medium of sealing materials. It works by generating a high current impulse to the heater ribbon on surface of the device. This produces a wave of heat strong enough to melt and seal up the bag or sheet pressed between the sealing bars.
How do you make homemade sealer?
– Mix white glue and water together in a bowl.
