The Alpha V40 is a universally
applicable label dispenser. To implement
virtually all industrial labelling requirements quickly and
inexpensively, a variety of versions are available: Wipe-on, Tamp-blow,
Tamp-on, Blow-box and 90° rotating stamp.
All procedures label the
products and packaging reliably and accurately. Position accuracy is
approx. 1 mm.
The separation of dispenser and controls ensures minimum
space requirements and simplifies integration into existing production
lines.
The symmetrical basic design allows the dispenser to be
converted to left or right-handed versions.
This allows maximum
flexibility and facilitates the most diverse of applications.
Particularly
high dispensing clock frequencies with a product distance of 6 to 20 mm
are attainable with the Blow-box version. In this process, the label is
blown onto the stationary or fast-moving product by means of an air
jet.
Secure label application is guaranteed also on convex or concave
surfaces in this way.
Display controller.
The standard version provides numerous functions. 30 label parameter
sets can, for instance, be stored.
The advantage: quick conversion to
other label formats, since the sets contain all required data.
These
include, amongst others, length of label, dispensing speed, label
opacity and positioning.
System calibration is not necessary. This
saves time and prevents operational errors.
The LC display has
background illumination and is equipped with a label counter.
The
functions of all sensors are permanently displayed in real-time.
Actual
dispensing speed is displayed in metres per minute and is adjustable
during operation.
System interruptions are displayed in clear text.
All
variable data (e.g. label parameter sets) are easily and securely
copied serially (RS232) onto a spare controller by means of the
controller back-up function(option).
With the Blow-box version,
the label is "shot" smoothly and directly onto the moving or stationary
product, without contact, by means of an air-jet.
This provides high
dispensing throughputs at a product distance of 6 to 20 mm.
Tamp-blow. With the Tamp-blow version the dispensing tamp
approaches the product
via a linear pneumatic drive system.
The label is tamped onto
stationary or moving products without contact.
The contact-free Tamp-Blow method offers decisive advantages:
• no wear in the dispensing tamp area,
• mounting in the conveyor system, independent of direction
• labelling without stopping the product,
• labelling on sensitive and uneven product surfaces,
• no start/stop synchronisation with the conveyor system
required.
The blow-on function also guarantees secure label application to convex
and concave surfaces.
