VACUUM HEAD FUNDAMENTALS
Fig 26`
Variables Affecting Vacuum Head Performance
C = as small as possible w/o the Vacuum Head hitting the Peeler Plate (typically 1/32”).
V = Enough Vacuum Pressure to hold the Label on w/o inhibiting label advance. O = enough to deflect label slightly downward (typically 1/32”).
P = Enough Air Pressure to force label up and onto Vacuum Head.
α= Direct Air Assist Tube so Leading edge of label remains in contact with Vacuum Head during label advancement.
