5.9 Blast Dwell
The Blast Dwell screen allows the operator to adjust the length of time the blast valve is
energized. The Blast Dwell time should be set just long enough for the label to fly to the
product and adhere. Upon accessing the Blast Dwell screen, the current set value is
displayed. The time value displayed is in milliseconds. Press the up and down arrows to
adjust the time value. Once the desired value is reached, press the Enter icon to save the
setting.
A good starting point is 80mS of blast at 80-90psi main air pressure. It is
important to note that more blast time does not necessarily mean the label
will fly or apply better.
Use the multiplier icon
to make changes in the “times” factor when
adjusting the dwells and delays timing - x1, x10, x100, or x1000ms. Refer to
the Multiplier section for further assistance.
5.10 Label Feed Delay
Label Feed Delay is used to synchronize the print engine print and dispense process to
the tamp applicator action. The delay is used to suspend label feed before the tamp pad
has fully returned to the home position. It is especially useful with tamp units using
slower speeds or longer cylinder lengths. To adjust label feed delay, open the Dwells and
Delays menu. Press the Label Feed Delay icon to access the adjustment screen. Pressing
the up or down arrows will adjust the time value in milliseconds. When the desired value
has been reached, press the Enter icon to save the setting.
Use the multiplier icon
to make changes in the “times” factor when
adjusting the dwells and delays timing - x1, x10, x100, or x1000ms. Refer to
the Multiplier section for further assistance.
