Labeler Application
Control Description
The reason for providing variable time ranges is to extend the performance
life of both the glue valves and solenoid valves. When the time cycle is set
properly, all valves remain energized during continuous product flow. Upon
startup, or after a production interruption, the valves are energized and de-
energized per individual container, until product flow reaches the production
rate corresponding with the cycle-time setting.
The scanner provides a momentary signal to start the independent time
cycle, affording maximum scanner mount flexibility.
The scanner also performs an automatic jam detection function by seeking a
void between each product. If the scanner doesn’t see avoid, it won’t allow
another cycle to start.
The operator dictates the cycle time by setting the activation.
