Adjustments 6.1.1 Moving the Pad in Y-Direction 1 mm Fig. 15 Displacement in the Y direction Displacement in the Y direction (printing direction) 1. Switch off the compressed air and pull the tube out of the throttle valve (5). The cylinder extends by spring force and is in the label transfer position. - Page 20 Adjustments 6.1.2 Moving the Pad in Z-Direction Fig. 16 Displacement in the Z direction 1. Switch off the compressed air and pull the tube out of the throttle valve (4). The cylinder extends by spring force and is in the label transfer position. 1.

Page 23: Vacuum Adjustments
Adjustments Vacuum Adjustments The label will be held on the pad by a vacuum. The vacuum needs to be set up in such a way that the label covers all the suction holes and is not hindered before it reaches its intended position on the pad. The default Value of the Vacuum is -0.6 bar. -
Page 24: Adjusting The Blow Tube (Supporting Air)
Adjustments Adjusting the Blow Tube (Supporting Air) The blow tube must be adjusted in such a way that the label takeover is unhindered by turbulence and the supporting air blows the label evenly against the pad. The default factory value is 2 bar. Note! Use an appropriate blow tube for the printer in use. - Page 25 Adjustments Fig. 23 Throttle valve "support air" The air pressure can be adjusted with the "support air" valve (1) to fine tune the procedure. To increase the supporting air turn counterclockwise the screw at the valve (1) Measuring Point Support Air (MP S) Use a manometer with a measurement range of -7 to 7 bar to control the pressure.

Page 34: Setting The Peel Position
Configuration Setting the Peel Position To optimize the transfer of the labels from the printer to the pad there are two different parameters available for adjusting the peel position. Attention! First adjust the parameter "Peel Position" in the printer configuration. Then adjust the additional peel-off offset in the software. It is very important to follow that procedure for a certain start after label loading and for the re-start after error treatment. -
