CAUTION: Nordson hot melt equipment is factory tested with Nordson Type R fluid that contains polyester adipate plasticizer. Certain hot melt materials can react with Type R fluid and form a solid gum that can clog the equipment.
3. Do NOT attempt to remove the solidified hot melt from your skin. 4. In case of severe burns, treat for shock. 5. Seek expert medical attention immediately. Give the MSDS for the hot melt to the medical personnel providing treatment. A1EN-01-[XX-SAFE]-10 E 2010 Nordson Corporation...
Section 2 Description Intended Use Color barcode scanners in the series CBC 5100 - hereafter also referred to as Barcode scanner - can be used for the following applications: Identification of the cardboard blank used Monitoring of fitting accuracy between printing and blank Checking printing to verify that the colors used are all present Any other use is considered to be unintended.
The general safety instructions are enclosed as an annex to the documentation folder or they are a section of this manual. The specific safety instructions are part of this manual. Residual Risks Nordson knows of no residual risks. E 2010 Nordson Corporation P/N 7135024D CBC 5100...
There should be as little slack as possible between the guide and the cardboard blank. The bracket for CBC 5100 sensor has a pre-folding feature to ensure optimum detection of the barcode and other markings from the side.
Description Introduction The color barcode scanner CBC 5100 is comprised of the bracket, the sensor and the control unit. The bracket also pre-folds the printed flaps of a blank. The barcode that precisely identifies the blank can be found on this flap.
Controlled Blower The area in front of the CBC 5100 sensor must be cleaned from time to time with a blower. The frequency is a factor of dust accumulation. The solenoid valve for the blower is controlled by the control system LogiCommt.

Description Bracket with sensor CBC 5100 The bracket holds the CBC 5100 sensor. It folds the blank over and guides it precisely, allowing the sensor to achieve optimal results. It offers minuscule settings for guiding the blank, pre-folding and positioning the sensor.
2‐9 Description Sensor CBC 5100 The optical sensor detects the bar code and markings. It transmits its signals to the CBC 5100 control unit. O705 Fig. 2‐6 Sensor CBC 5100 1 Focusing device 3 Receptacle for Smart Sensor 4 Focus button...
Keep packaging material for any later use, or dispose of properly according to local regulations. Mounting Attach the CBC 5100 control unit to the proper position on the production machine. Protect the unit from humidity, excessive dust accumulation and vibrations.
NOTE: Position the bracket such that it is aligned with the center line of the production machine, the conveyor belt (5). Precise fixation is essential to proper blank guiding, which in turn is required for satisfactory, reproducible measurement results. E 2010 Nordson Corporation P/N 7135024D CBC 5100 Edition 12/10...
NOTE: Position the bracket as far as possible in the direction of the production machine folding line. Align the bracket such that the flap on the blank (3) is pre-folded approx. 90 degrees. CBC 5100 P/N 7135024D E 2010 Nordson Corporation Edition 12/10...
2. Affix the reflector (3). NOTE: Adhere the reflector such that it is as smooth as possible and without creases/bulges. Attaching Blower to Sensor CBC 5100 O728 Fig. 3‐4 Attaching Blower to Sensor CBC 5100...
3. Set the air pressure to 5 to 6 bar on the air pressure regulator. Select the air pressure as required by the dust accumulation. 4. Electrically connect the solenoid valve to outlet B2 of the LogiCommt control system. E 2010 Nordson Corporation P/N 7135024D CBC 5100 Edition 12/10...

Setting Color Sensitivity To allow bars with low-contrast colors to be reliably detected, the sensitivity of the CBC 5100 sensor can be adjusted. Refer to Fig. 4‐3, Color Sensitivity. Setting Bar Masking Bar masking is needed to mask a bar that is difficult to detect. If the bar is not the first or last bar, this ensures that a learned, unequivocal barcode is also detected reliably.
The CBC 5100 sensor is aligned properly. b. The reflector is affixed. c. There are no products in front of the CBC 5100 sensor. d. The production speed is set to 0. e. The lens and the reflector are clean.
