Description of the labeling system
The labeling station is used to label cylindrical products automatically.
Depending on kind and dimension of the product, different label sizes are used.
Further function descriptions about machine components can be found in the
chapter "Adjustment and initial operation".
Product infeed
The products are fed manually or by a conveying system provided by the customer at
infeed passage of the labeling station. Care should be taken on accurate alignment of the
products between two freely mounted rollers of the roll conveyor.
The side guidances position the products flush with the outside edge of the roll conveyor.
Wrap-around labeling
The roll conveyor feeds the products to the labeler. There the label is applied with the part
running forward onto the product and it is pushed by rotation and the back pressure of the
wrapping unit onto the product.
The back pressure of the wrapping unit (the speed of the wrapping unit is twice as fast as
the speed of the base conveyor) enables the product in rotation.
Outfeed
The roll conveyor forwards the finished labeled products to the outfeed. Here the products
are removed manually or by the customer's conveying system.
