LABELER TYPE SETUP PROCEDURE
6-8
TAMP APPLICATOR SETUP (cont’d)
TAMP SLIDE
The Tamp Slide is used to move the Label Pad and Manifold toward
the product. The speed at which it travels is a function of air
pressure and airflow. The Valve and Regulator for the Tamp
Assembly is part of the Valve Bank mounted to the side of the
Applicator. Typically, the air pressure should be set between 40 and
50 PSI but it may be changed as necessary. Two adjustment knobs
(flow controls) are provided on the Air Cylinder to adjust the Tamp
Extend and Retract Speed. Turning the knobs clockwise will slow
the movement of the Cylinder. Turning the knobs counter-
clockwise will speed up the Cylinder.
Note: The Tamp Extend
and Retract Times must be setup by the operator since they are
dependent on the setting of the adjustment knobs. Both timers
are in the APPLICATOR SETUP MENU of the Display.
EXTEND TIME: 1. The Tamp Extend Time is the time allotted to fully extend the Tamp Slide
Assembly. After the “Tamp Extend” Time, an air blast forces the label off of
the Label Pad onto the product. In order to keep cycle times low, set the Extend
Time so that the air blast occurs when the slide reaches the fully extended
position.
2. To change the Tamp Extend Time enter the Applicator Setup Menu on the
Display. Press “TAMP TIMES” and enter a value under “TAMP EXTEND”
between .01-5 seconds. Additional information about adjusting Tamp Times
can be found on page 3-10.
RETRACT TIME: 1. The Tamp Retract Time is the time allotted to fully retract the Tamp Slide
Assembly. At the end of the “Tamp Retract” Time a label will be fed out onto
the Pad. Too small of a value will cause a label to feed out before the Label Pad
is in the home position. Too high of a value increases cycle times.
2. To change the Tamp Retract Time enter the Applicator Setup Menu on the
Display. Press “TAMP TIMES” and enter a value under “TAMP RETRACT”
between .01-5 seconds. Additional information about adjusting Tamp Times
can be found on page 3-10.
NOTE: If Tamp Switches are used, it is only necessary to set both Tamp Extend & Retract Times to
a value higher than the time required. The Tamp Switches will override any excess time.
