Wrap-around applicator WICON
Cable marking using wrap-around labels
Cylindric items of diameters from 2 mm to 16 mm, such as single wires, strands, cables, hoses, tubes or round rods, can be labeled with the wrap-around applicator.
Transparent laminate covers data blocks and protects them persistently from dust and wear.
Items are inserted in horizontal orientation and centered by panels.
The following options are available for printing and labeling:
- Single items are inserted by hand.
Items are positioned by centering panels. Start is triggered automatically after insertion.
- Single items are inserted by a robot.
Items are identified by centering panels.Start is triggered via a data or I/O interface.
- Continuous items are fed and positioned automatically.
Centering panels remain open by expansion. Items are guided through the center. Start is triggered via a data or I/O interface.
Item diameters and label lengths define the number of wrap-arounds. Cycles are 1.8 to six seconds.
While labels are wrapped around an item, the aperture for insertion and removal is covered by a finger guard. Operations require materials guided centered on a printer, as well as a slim print roller.
The properties of cab wrap-around labels are adapted to automated labeling using WICON, so is manufacture. All labels ‒ from the first to the last ‒ are applied precisely with the help of pretesion and retension. cab does not provide any functional warranty if third-party labels are in use.
Make sure item surfaces are clean and free of lubricants. The data block of a label can be printed using cablabel S3, release 1.4.0.5 or later. Find sample labels on www.cab.de/en/cablabel
cab recommends materials be tested at the factory, in particular if diameters are less than 3 mm.
