The integration of an ALS 20X labeller in a production
line is made easier or even possible with the knowledge
of certain performance data. Such performance data
can be calculated and visualized be means of the Excel
file „ALS20x_Ramping.xls". The file is stored in the
„\utilities" folder on the documentation CD.
Using the calculation sheet
Open the file „ALS20x_Ramping.xls" [6].

– Requires Microsoft Excel or a compatible spread
sheet program.
Enter the the values for „max. speed" and „label

pitch (including gap)" into the input fields [6A].
Read the calculation results [6B].

Inputs
max speed
– Maximum dispensing speed (aimed at).
– Must equal the conveyor speed of the production
line.
label pitch (including gap)
– Length of one label plus one gap (measure from one
label start to another)
Outputs
time for acceleration
Elapsed time after a start signal until the max. dis-
pensing speed is reached.
run length for acc.
– Run length during the acceleration phase (label
length which is already dispensed until the max. dis-
pensing speed is reached).
– The distance between dispensing edge and pres-
sure roller (with direct dispensing) measures
15 mm. Within those 15 mm, the acceleration must
be finished.
