2.2 Function
The described wipe-on applicators are additional modules for the
printing systems of ILX series and serve the automatic application of
printed labels onto a product. The application of labels is made with
the so-called wipe-on procedure. Here the printed label is removed
from the backing paper and taken from the dispenser of the wipe-on
applicator, then rolled on the product with the pressure roller or
applied on the product with the pressure brush.
The operation of printing system with wipe-on applicator requires the
use of an external start signal (see chapter 6.1, page 25).
