Cylinder Stroke Lengths
To customize the SLPA to meet individual application requirements,
applicators are available in the following cylinder stroke lengths:
•
8.0 inches (203 mm)
•
14.0 inches (357 mm) - standard
•
20.0 inches (508 mm)
NOTE: The lengths specified above do not reflect the actual distance that the
Soft Pad
For applications requiring cushioned application, a soft applicator pad is
available. This pad is manufactured from foam rubber rather than hard plastic,
as the standard applicator pad. This option is useful for applying labels to
fragile products or products that have irregular surfaces.
Random Stroke Sensor
The random stroke regulator controls the trip point at which the applicator will
return to its home position, once it makes contact with the product. This allows
products of different sizes to be marked without concern of the applicator
crushing objects which require a shorter stroke of the applicator.
There are several sensor types which may be used with the random stroke
function, depending upon the customer's application. Regardless of the type
of sensor used, all random stroke sensors will interface with the SLPA via the
auxiliary connection on the interface panel.

therefore be specified prior to order placement.
SLPA can be positioned from the product. The applicator pad must
travel 4.75 inches (120.65 mm) from the peel point (point at which the
label is applied) before reaching the bottom of the SLPA. Therefore,
an SLPA that has a cylinder length of 14 inches, for example, can be
positioned no more than 11.50 inches (292 mm) from the product to
make contact.
