End Position Cushioning

i

Note! 

The end position cushioning of the cylinder is set up to client specifications and does usually not need to be 

adjusted.

1

The end position cushioning of the main cylinder reduces 
the impact energy when the applicator is operating at high 
speeds and/or masses. 

Adjust the end position cushioning so that the piston arrives 

the end position definitively but does not strike it to hard.  

A higher level of end position cushioning will reduce the lift 
speed.

 

To increase the value of the end position cushioning turn 
the setting screw (2) clockwise on cylinder (1).

 

To reduce the value of the end position cushioning turn 
the setting screw (2) counterclockwise on cylinder (1).

Stopper with cushioning (Guide Rail)

The stopper with cushioning (guide rail) reduces the speed 
of the cylinder Z shortly before impact when the applicator is 
operated at higher speeds and/or with larger pads.

Adjustments like chapter 

 „6.7 Adjustment of the Stopper for 

Blow Mode“ 

Adjust the stopper with maximum compressed spring. 

  „5.4 Transportation Lock“

Stopper (pad assembly)

The stopper avoids the triggering of the labelling sensor by 
the weight of the pad assembly during the inward motion of 
an installation turned 90° or 180°.

The setting occurs during the take-up of the label from the 
printer.

1.  Loosen the counter nut of the stopper.

2.  Turn the stopper until it touches the pad retainer lightly.  

Do not change the take over position of the pad by via 
stopper.

3. 

Tighten the counter nut to fix the stopper.

  Pressure reduction valve

 

cylinder Z

The pressure reduction valve (2) can be used when labelling 
pressure-sensitive products or considering general safety 
aspects to reduce the pressure of the cylinder in Z-direction. 

The standard value is 2.5 bar.

 

Connect the manometer between tube and exit (3) and 
adjust the pressure to 2.5 bar with the knurled screw (1).

It is possible to order an upgraded set with a pressure 
reduction valve.

Instructions are provided with the upgraded set.
