APPLICATOR DAT NOSE:
The DAT (Dual Action Tamp) Applicator Nose is used for dispensing labels via an air blast to the side of
the product with a tamping action and the leading or trailing panel of the same product with a swing action.
SWING ONLY and SIDE ONLY operating modes are supported as well. A label is dispensed from the
Peel Edge onto the Label Pad. Air Cylinders extend the Tamp or Swing Arm Assemblies to the product
and the label is applied with an air blast. The Tamp/Swing Extend and Retract Times are configured during
Applicator Setup.
BLOW BOX / VACUUM GRID:
The Blow Box/Vacuum Grid is the cube shaped assembly located next to the Peel Edge on a Blow Box
Applicator. Two (2) Axial Fans mounted above the Grid create the vacuum needed to hold the label in
place prior to application.
DANCER ARM:
The Dancer Arm is attached to the Unwind Block Assembly with a shoulder bolt, thrust bearing and a
bushing. It appears immediately after the Unwind Mandrel in the web path. The Dancer Arm has a roller
at one end that rides against the label liner and is interconnected to the Mandrel Tension Disk with a spring.
The Dancer Arm maintains tension on the liner loop as it operates the brake on the Unwind Mandrel when
labels are being dispensed. The spring tension should be large enough to properly tension the web but still
allow proper operation of the brake. Do not over tension the Dancer Arm.
DRIVE ROLLER:
The Drive Roller is coupled to a Stepper Motor that provides the motive force for advancing the label liner.
The Drive Roller in conjunction with the spring loaded Nip Roller, pull the label liner around the Peel Edge
to dispense a label onto the product, Tamp Pad, or Blow Box Grid.
LABEL MANIFOLD:
The Label Manifold is the mounting block that attaches the Label Pad to the bottom of the Tamp Cylinder
on the Applicator Nose. The Label Manifold is a custom part that is manufactured exactly to the label size
being applied. If at any time the label size changes, a new Label Manifold must be purchased along with
the Label Pad.
LABEL PAD:
The Label Pad is a white delrin material mounted onto the Label Manifold at the bottom of the Tamp
Cylinder of the Tamp Applicator Nose. The Label Pad is a custom part that is manufactured exactly to the
label size being applied. If at any time the label size changes, a new Label Pad must be purchased along
with the Label Manifold.
