|
The basic machine is
equipped with an air cylinder and vacuum pads that
can apply a label to the top or side of
containers/boxes.
Longer labels can be applied to the top
or to the side
of the container with a roll-on
applicator.

Adjacent - Dual
action stamp for adjacent corner |
| The dual actions, air
cylinder operated tamp rotates 90 degrees across the
conveyor to apply the front label. As the product
advances, the second straight-line stroke extends using
the same cylinder to apply the side panel label. |

Corners
- Pneumatic actuating arm for
corner wrap |
| The pad is supporting and
actuated by air cylinders that can be adjusted to act as
passive spring followers. When the vacuum pad comes into
contact with the product surface, these cylinders allow
the pad to follow the surface and apply the label without
disturbing or damaging the product, while assuring
consistent label wipe down.

Rear -
Pneumatic rear applicator |
| A standard tamp or roll-on
application is made on the top or side edge of a box. As
the product advances, an air cylinder with a foam roller
will apply the label on the back panel.

Arm Stroke -
Self adjusting arm stroke |
| The cylinder that extends
the pad arm is controlled by a sensor to detect physical
contact with the product. This forms a simple compensation
for varying product heights. The machine successfully
acheives label applications onto uneven surfaces of various
products. |
