1 Long product life
by a precise and low-wear linear guide2 Products of variable heights
Labels can be applied on different heights using a stroke cylinder. Its standard lengths are 200, 300 and 400 mm. Further lengths can be provided on request.3 Protective chassis
is a standard to protect the cylinder and the guide. It can be provided adapted to the product jig on a labeling workstation.4 Highly reliable processes
Support air and intake air can be defined, so can stroke speed. Sensor control5 Label application
in real time. Small or large labels, 4 to 250 mm high and 4 to 174 mm wide, can be processed using an applicator6 Pivoting applicator
The print mechanics can be accessed quickly and easily in case of maintenance or if materials have to be replaced.Options
Pressure-reducing valve
It reduces the pressure exerted by the stroke cylinder to the product.Pressure-reduced applicator
It has been designed for manual workstations missing a protective cover. The cylinder diameter is reduced to 12 mm. To prevent from injuries, a safety valve limits compressed air to a maximum of 4.8 bar.Combination applicators and transfer modules (product catalogue, page 17)
