Description

03

The applicator arm allows automatic applying of labels to products on a driven belt or roller 

conveyer. The bracket is specifically designed to for use with Godex 4” wide industrial thermal

transfer label printers. The printer attaches to the applicator arm with 4 specially modified bolts 

M5.  

Printed labels pass around roller 1 attached to bracket 2. Roller 1 can be adjusted to vary the

length of label being used such that the leading edge of the label is positioned under roller 3. 

After roller 1 the labels are routed to the dispense edge where the backing paper is removed. 

From the dispense edge, just the backing paper is returned to the printer where the internal 

rewinder collects the backing paper. Dispensed labels will be kept in position by the ventilator 

unit 4 until they are applied to the product using foam rubber roller 3 to firmly roll them down. 

Both the position and the capacity from fan unit 4 can be adjusted to suit the label length, 

-weight and –stiffness. The position from applicator arm 5 can be adjusted to meet various 

product sizes.
