ETTING AND MONITORING
Label stop position
4.2.2
After the label is output, the feed continues to operate,
until the next label is present at the dispensing edge. To
ensure that the labels separate completely from the dis-
pensing edge, it is advisable to allow the feed to run un-
til the next label projects slightly over the dispensing
edge.
The label stop position is the distance between the
leading edge of the next label and the dispensing edge
[54A]. As a rule, this distance should not be more than
3 mm. The respective optimum setting value depends
on the label material used, the product speed, the sur-
face characteristics of the product, and other factors.
For problems during the labelling operation, first
check the label stop position.
If necessary, set the label stop position as described
below.
Switch on the machine at the main switch.
In the standard menu, press the NEXT [55A] or
PRIOR [55B] key until STOD [56] is displayed on
the operator panel.
Call up the STOD function by pressing the
ENTER [55C] key.
– The distance is shown on the operator panel in mm.
Set the desired distance using the NEXT or PRIOR
key .
– Settings are possible in 0.1 mm steps:
Minimum: 0 mm
Maximum: set label distance (LPIT function)
Confirm the desired value using the ENTER key and
exit the STOD function.
If the value for the STOD function shown on the
operator panel does not agree with the actual
label stop position, it is possible that the control
system contains an erroneous value for the dis-
tance between the photoelectric sensor and the
dispensing edge (E_SS function in the extend-
ed menu).
