5.4.1 Tamp Mode

Tamp – This selection enables the configuration of the applicator to apply a label using a
vacuum tamp pad mounted on an air cylinder. Also, enables the pneumatics used in tamp
mode and disables all other configurations.
The Tamp Mode Cycle:
1)
The label is printed and dispensed onto the tamp pad.
2)
The vacuum valve is enabled, creating a vacuum through the holes in the
tamp pad, which holds the label in place.
3)
When the application cycle is triggered, the air cylinder extends and makes
contact with the product.
4)
Adhesive on the label attaches the label to the product as the air cylinder
retracts.
