performance.
The Label Applicator consists of a Web Drive, which is controlled and
monitored by an Electronic Control Processor. The Electronic Control
Processor is mounted in an Electronic Housing at the rear of the cast
aluminium chassis. The machine is operated using an Operator Control
Panel (OCP), also called Control Panel, mounted on an adjustable bracket.

1. Label Out Indicator
2. General Alarm Indicator
Figure 4-4. Control Panel Fault Indicators
Both the fault indicators consist of a graphic symbol and an LED, which
when lit, indicates a fault condition as described below:
• The label out indicator, when lit, indicates that there are no labels left
on the Unwind Reel
• The label out indicator flashes if the label stock on the Unwind Reel is
less (optional)
• The General Alarm indicator, when lit, indicates a web break or any
other fault condition that prevents the machine from applying labels
The following external fault indicators can be connected to the machine
through the Connector Panel:
• General Alarm - can be connected to an external device, to provide
fault indication
• Traffic Light Lamp Stack - can be connected to indicate the following:
- Green: the machine is fully operational
- Orange: a label low condition has been detected (optional)
- Red: a general alarm condition exists

Start Production
When you start production, the machine should apply a label to each
product item as it passes under the machine. Check if the machine is
operating correctly by observing the following conditions:
• Only one label is applied at a time. If more than one is applied, adjust
the label sensitivity as described in the topic “Label Sensitivity” on
page 3-3.
• After the label has been applied, the leading edge of the next label
should be aligned with the peel tip. If not, adjust the label stop
position, as described in the topic “Label Stop Position” on page 3-4.
• The label is correctly positioned on the product. If not, adjust the
product delay, as described in the topic “Product Delay” on page 3-5.
• The machine speed is synchronized with the production line speed. If
the machine is running too fast, the label tends to crumple or fold as it
is applied to the product. If the machine is running slow, the label is
snatched from the machine and may tear. If necessary, adjust the
machine speed, as described in the topic “Machine Speed” on
page 3-2.
Note: If a Shaft Encoder is connected to the machine then any change in
production line speed is compensated automatically.

Air Assist Delay
Adjusts the time from the beginning of a label dispense to the time the air
assist is activated.
Blow Module
Blow module is an airjet device that consists of an extraction fan that is
used to create a vacuum within a vacuum box. The vacuum inside the box
holds the label to the vacuum grid. The vacuum level is adjusted by a
baffle, located on the side of the vacuum box. Air tubes blast air from the
pneumatic source to apply the label to the product. The air blast tubes can
be moved on the vacuum grid to apply labels of differing shapes or sizes
to the product.
During dispense of the label, the label transfers to the underside of the
vacuum grid, guided by the air assist. A vacuum created within the
vacuum box holds the label in position until the product is detected by the
product detector. When the product moves under the vacuum box, the air
blast tubes release air with force to apply the label to the product.
Drive Roller
The roller that provides the force for advancing the label web. It is a part
of the web drive mechanism, and is electronically controlled by the control
card inside the back cover.
Friction Block
The friction block is fitted with a hold-down spring plate, which holds the
label web firmly against the peel plate. The pressure of the hold-down
spring is adjustable and is set for correct peeling of the labels from the
web.
Label Applicator
Any device designed to apply a label to an object.
Label Guide Collars
These devices are attached to the idler rollers to facilitate proper tracking
of the label web.
Label Style
This is a stripped out form with a minimum spacing of 0.125" (3mm).
Label backing must have a release agent such as Silicon. Label must free
peel when pulled around a standard peeler plate with a minimum label
gap of 0.125" (3mm).

Peeler Plate
This plate is designed and positioned to separate labels (peel off) from the
label web when the label web is pulled around it. Labels can be applied
only after they are peeled. This part is also known as peeler plate, peel tip,
peel edge, peeler bar, and demand plate.
Label Sensor
This infra-red, thru-beam detector senses the opacity of the label web
before the label is removed. In doing so, it also senses the spaces between
the labels and provides the label stop control. The sensitivity of this sensor
is adjustable, and the stopping position of the label, which is relative to the
peel edge, is adjusted electronically.
Label Size
The dimension of the label (width x length).
Label Unwind
The subsystem that unwinds the label roll to facilitate label application.
Label Web Path
The label web path routes the label web to the applicator.
Product Detector
This device, normally located on the product conveyor, detects the
product before it approaches the applicator, and provides the sequence
start signal. The detector is positioned relative to the label peel tip for
correct application of the label. This position is determined by the speed of
the conveyor, length of the product to be labeled, and the desired position
of the label on the product. The detector should be carefully positioned,
such that the applicator can operate at its maximum speed.
Rewind Lock-pin
The U-shaped pin that is used to retain the spent label web on the rewind
roll (mandrel).
Rewind Reel
The mandrel provided to store the spent label web.
Shaft Encoder
The equipment (shaft encoder kit) used to synchronize the dispense speed
of the label, with the line speed of the product or the conveyor belt.

Tamp Module
The tamp applicator module comprises a tamp cylinder and a tamp pad.
The plate is free to move up and down the length of the tamp cylinder on
guide rods. Air, controlled by the pneumatics unit, is fed to either end of
the piston within the tamp cylinder, making it extend or retract. A
vacuum supply, created in the pneumatics unit, is applied to the tamp pad
to hold the label in position until the product is detected. Control of the
tamp is via two air flow restrictors located at the top and bottom of the
cylinder.
Tamp Pad
A part of the tamp applicator that holds the label, during the application
process. There are holes in the pad through which air is sucked, creating
vacuum inside the tamp. The vacuum helps the tamp to hold the label,
until the air cylinder extends the tamp and affixes the label on the object.
Each tamp pad is manufactured for a specific label size, and should not be
used for a label size that does not match.
