Unwind unit
– A loop forms in the loop space as a buffer between
the unwind unit and label dispensing [31arrow].
– A photoelectric sensor in the loop space monitors
the loop.
– If the loop becomes too large, the control system au-
tomatically lowers the unwinding speed. The dis-
pensing speed does not change.
– The dancer arm [31A] swings approximately into the
centre position.
Rewind unit
– The multiple deflections with the spring-loaded
dancer arm act as a buffer between the label output
and the rewind unit. During synchronous operation,
the dancer arm is approximately in the centre
position [31B].
– If necessary, the control system automatically slows
the rewinding speed. The dispensing speed is not
affected by this.
4.1.3 Stop/end the label dispensing
➔ Press the ENTER key.
– The unwind unit, dispenser drive, and rewinding unit
shut down.
– “OFF” appears on the operator panel [32].
