Term
Explanation
PSI
American unit of measure for compressed air.
(1 PSI = 0.06895 bar).
Peeler plate
Metal plate about which the label is peeled off.
Pusher roller
Pushes the label onto the product strongly sticking.
Rewinder
Holder (generally for three-inch cardboard core) for winding
the label backing strip. The rewinder winds the backing pa-
per that is returned from the printing module. It is controlled
by the dancer arm (see dancer arm). Rewinders have a
motorized drive.
Re- and Unwinder
See rewinder and unwinder.
RFID
This abbreviation stands for radio frequency identification.
This technology is used to identify products so that they can
be tracked using smart labels (see RFID label .
RFID label
The RFID label or also called Smart label is a particular
label that has a transponder onto which data can be written
or read via radio. The idetification of products labeled in this
way is possible contactless by an antenna.
Outfeed
The outfeed forwards the products to the customer’s con-
veying system. Here the products are removed.
Service unit (FR group)
This unit consists of:
A gauge for displaying the compression of
the compressed air (in bar)
Quick action stop valve
Water trap for manually draining any con-
densate
Start sensor
See also “Product sensor”. The start sensor scans the lead-
ing edge of the product. As soon as a product is detected,
the labeling procedure starts. The label position on the
product is adjusted by the sensor position.
Stroke
Way the tamp moves during extension in direction of prod-
uct.
Tamp
Unit that grabs the label by means of a vacuum, conveys it
to the product and applies it.
Tamp
pad
(suc-
tion/blowing tamp)
Perforated plate of the tamp to which the peeled off label is
transferred.
Touchscreen
Touch-controlled screen or monitor
Trigger-signal
The signal from the sensor or PLC which is used to activate
application.
Unwinder
The unwinder receives the roll of labels (generally with a 3
inch cardboard core). The unwinder allows the label roll to
unwind smoothly without skipping, and a roll brake governs
the feed (see also the dancer arm). Unwinders can also
have a motor drive
VAC
Alternating voltage
Vacuum
generator
(Venturi)
An unit that uses compressed air to generate a vacuum.
