2.1 Important Features
• The supporting air and the vacuum as well as the speed of the cylinder are adjustable. That way the applicator
can be adapted to different label materials and sizes.
• To avoid contamination within the vacuum channels they are cleaned by air pressure impulse at the end of each
application.
• For operation in a system the I/O interface of the printer can be used.

3 Operation
3.1 Standard Operation
Check all external connections.
Load the material.
Open the shutoff valve.
!
Attention!
Ensure that the pad is not covered by a label when switching on the printer-applicator system otherwise
the vacuum sensor may be calibrated incorrectly.
Switch on the printer.
i
Note!
If the pad is not in the start position when the printer is switched on an error message appears on the
display.
Press button pause on the printer.
The applicator will move into the starting position and is ready for work.
Press the feed button at the printer.
A synchronization feed is released. The processed labels have to be removed manually. After a few seconds the
printer carries out a short backfeed to position the front edge of the next label at the printing line.
i
Note!
This synchronization also has to be carried out when the print job has been interrupted with the cancel button.
Synchronizing is not necessary when the print head was not lifted between print jobs. This also applies if
the printer was powered off between print jobs.
Start a print job
Start the labelling process via PLC interface.
Error messages during labelling process are shown in the display of the printer Error messages.
3.2 Cleaning
!
Attention!
Never use solvent and abrasive.

Clean the outside surfaces with multi purpose cleaner.
Remove dust particles and leftover label pieces with a soft
brush and/or vacuum cleaner.
Especially at the slide foil (1) debris may gather. To ensure
an ideal takeover and handling of the label it is necessary
to clean the surface of slide foil at regular intervals.
Clean the surface of the product sensor (1) with glass
cleaner and a cotton bud.
