Checking the transfer process

The schematics to the right display the typical transfer 
process: from dispensing the label to transferring the 
label to the product.

1. Once a print or dispensing command is received, 

the label is transferred across the dispensing edge 
[32a] and separated from the release paper [32b]. 
The label is transferred closely past the edge of the 
vacuum plate [32c].
The amount of bending in the label depends on the 
following factors:

– Feed speed
– Adhesive force
– Label thickness
– Room temperature

If the label is not deflected far enough to come 
past the vacuum plate, adjust the height setting 
of the dispensing edge. See chapter 

Adjust the 

distance to the dispensing edge

 on page 21.

2. The support air [32d] deflects the label away from 

the vacuum plate.
For more information, see chapter 

Adjust the 

vacuum at the pressure plate

 on page 24.

3. The label is ‘caught’ by the vacuum plate and 

moved along by the feed force. The suction force of 
the vacuum plate must not exceed the feed force 
for the label. Here, it is important to consider the in-
teraction between feed force, support air angle, 
support air force and suction force.
For more information, see chapter 

Adjusting the 

support air

 on page 24.

4. Once the label has separated completely from the 

dispensing edge, it snaps onto the vacuum plate.
The distance to the dispensing edge prevents the 
label from adhering during the downwards move-
ment of the vacuum plate towards the final position.

5. The vacuum plate is pushed downwards to the final 

position and the label is transferred onto the prod-
uct.
