General Notes
Intended Purpose
The rewinder option is a peripheral device for label printers of the types
TTK, TTX 350, 64-xx, AP 5.4 and AP 7.t. The device is designed for
winding up label material after it has been printed using one of the printer
types named above.
Properties
As opposed to the stand-alone rewinding devices Junior Rewinder and
Jumbo Rewinder, the rewinder option (subsequently referred to as the
rewinder) is permanently attached to the printer. The printer provides power
for the rewinder motor via a socket on the front, which is also used for
receiving signals relating to the lateral deflection of the bouncer arm.
Rotational speed
While the material is being wound up, the rotational speed is controlled via
the lateral deflection of the bouncer arm. The greater the lateral deflection,
the lower the rotational speed. If the label material sags – the bouncer arm
is in this case only slightly deflected – the rewinder increases the rotational
speed in order to make up the "delay". This ensures that the label material
is rolled up evenly tautly. Without lateral deflection - e.g. when the material
is finished – the rewinding process stops after about four seconds.
Direction of rotation
The label material can be alternately rolled up with the labels facing
outwards or inwards by reversing the direction of rotation.
