3.4.2 Fixed dispensing speed
The second step is to adjust the dispense speed. If an APSF sensor is used see 3.4.3.
If an applicator is used, then the dispense speed has no influence to the dispense process.
Continue with 3.4.4.
Set POS to the distance between start sensor and dispensing edge. If installed remove the
roller to press the label onto the product. Now try to dispenser one product. If the label has
wrinkles reduce the speed VELO. If the product peels out the label, so the stop position of the
next label is different to the last position increase the speed. Normally your dispense speed
should be a little bit higher than your product speed.
3.4.3 Automatic dispensing speed (APSF)
With a connected rotary encoder, the dispensing speed follows the measured product speed.
To adjust the speed use the EGRA function located in the extended standard menu. The
measured speed will be displayed in the VELO function. Do the adjustment in the same way
described for fixed speed.
3.4.4 Label position on the product
At least adjust the position of the label on the product with the POS function or with the STAD
function, if an applicator is in use.
3.4.5 Product data bank
Save your setting in one of the product data banks. If different products and / or labels are in
use up to nine different combinations could be stored. Define and store the different product
data. The select the product data bank mode by holding the PRIOR key during power on.
Switch back to normal mode by holding the NEXT key.
