Explanation
Feeding of a label. By pressing the [Feed] key of the print
engine, the drive motor is activated and transport of the label
web is started (dancer arm loosens the unwinder brake
band). The fed label is printed on within the print engine and
peeled off at the peeler bar.
Gap between two labels on the label web. The gap is identi-
fied by a sensor on the applicator.
The labeling station is used for automatic labeling of products
and consists of several parts (assembly groups), e.g. 3-roll
system, labeler.
Siliconized liner paper that the labels are affixed to before
they are applied to the product.
An optical sensor (reflective light sensor) for identifying the
end of the label.
An optical sensor for identifying the label gap.
Applicator system to apply labels automatically.
Normal operating conditions. The labeler is ready to print and
apply labels.
Light Emitting Diode.
An optical sensor (reflective light sensor) for identifying a
preset minimum of the (adjusted) label roll diameter for a
warning.
A driven axis with a device for fixing the label web. The man-
drel serves for unwinding the label web.
The transparency of a material is measured by a light barrier,
and is referred to as opacity. When measuring the amount of
light emitted by the incoming will be taken into consideration.
The lower the ratio the lower the opacity.
Changeable resistance (regulator) for analog regulation of
adjustments at the labeler (e.g. time performance of the
Tamp movement depending on the rotational position of the
potentiometer).
A sensor for detection of the product. Mostly, optical sensors
are used (photocells, light barriers or reflective sensors)
The American measure of air pressure (Pounds per Square
Inch Gauge). 1 bar = 14.7 PSI.
See re- resp. unwinder.
Roll holder (normally for 3 inch cardboard cores) for rewind-
ing the label web. The rewinder winds up the web coming
from the print engine. It is triggered by a dancer arm (see
dancer arm). Rewinders are powered by a motor.
Distance which the retracted Tamp covers towards the prod-
uct.
A mechanical device that receives a label and moves the
label to a position where it is applied to a product.
