Print-Apply
:
An external start signal begins the printing of a label followed by the
application of that label. After the cycle is complete, the pad waits in
the start position without a label.
Apply-Print
:
A separate signal starts the printing of the first label and the transfer
of that label to the pad.
The start signal applies that label and the next label is printed. The
cycle ends with a printed label on the pad.

: Pad waits in the start position for the start signal.

: Pad waits in the labelling position for the start signal.

> Blow time
only for Mode of oper.
Blow on
The length of time (max. 2.5 s) air is blown for the label transfer.
0 ms
> Roll on time
Only for mode roll on
The time (max. 5 s) the pad stays in the labeling position.
0 ms
> Support delay on
Sets the delay (max. 2.5 s) for the supporting air after printing start
and switching on the supporting air. The delay prevents turbulence
at the front of the label and, consequently, prevents issues when the
label is being picked up from the printer.
270 ms
> Support del. off
Setting the deactivation delay (max. 2.5 s) of the supporting air
between the end of label forwarding and switching on the supporting
air. The delay is useful to separate the rear end of the label from the
lining to avoid flaws and to improve the accuracy of label positioning.
0 ms
> Delay time
Delay (max. 2.5 s) between start signal and the start of a labelling
cycle.
Allows the use of product sensors within conveyors systems for
example.
0 ms
> Lock time
All start signals received after the first start signal are ignored when
they arrive within the lock time.
0.0 mm
> Peel position
Shift the position of the dispensed label relatively to the dispense
edge. In the software an extra peel offset value is available. The
offset values from “Peel position“ and from software are added
together for execution.
On
> Vacuum control
Control of the take over the label via vacuum sensor.
On
> Hand-over up
Take over the label direct from the dispense edge via contact
between pad and dispense edge.
Not available for applicator type 4014/4016 and 4614/4616

> Cleaning blow
Activate/Deactivate - air pressure impulse to clean the pad
On
> Vacuum delay
On -
The vacuum will switched on after end of the label
transport.
Off -
The vacuum will switched on with start of the label
transport.
