2.1 Introduction
This chapter describes the BK731 Labeling Head and the accessories required to
successfully install and operate it on equipment other than the BK730 tabbing base.
Proper installation will require the following steps:
•
Attachment of the labeling head to the transport base.
•
Installation of a Photo sensor to trigger the label placement on the product.
•
Installation of the encoder assembly.
Note: If a customized mounting solution is desired, please provide as much detailed
information as possible prior to ordering so that it may be considered.
Section 2.3 lists a number of photo sensor and encoder options available to meet the needs
of the application. These options (ordered as separate items), will have the System
Integration Discount (SID) discount applied when ordered with the system.
Note : SID discount applies to the Photocue sensor and encoder assembly when
ordered with the BK731 Labeling Head.
2.2 Labeling Head Mounting fixture
In order to mount the labeling head on a base other than the BK730 base, modifications
may be required. Eight 10-32 UNF holes must be drilled (2-3/8” apart for each mounting
foot) with the mounting hole locations shown in
Figure 1-2
. Note that the mounting
location along the length of the rail is adjustable in order to accommodate different size
bases.
2.3 Photo sensor
There are three main photo sensors available for purchase depending on the application
(one must be ordered in order for the Labeler to operate). They are the reflective,
through-beam, and diffuse sensors (
Table 2-1
).
