8.2 Applicator modes

The machine is able to dispense the label direct on the passing product. There is also the possibility to drive without any external control a wide range of applicators.

8.2.1Signals for direct dispense

For direct dispensing the airstream signal can be used to control a pneumatic driven dispensing edge. The start of the airstream signal (= motor run signal) could be behind the start of the dispense motor, adjusted with the function APT3. The signal is switched inactive, when the label dispense has been completed. Also the stop could be adjusted with the function ASTP to switch inactive before or behind the dispense motor stop.
