New Label Applicator's High Level Of Control

Advanced Dynamics is introducing to the UK a label applicator for all types of labelling.

Advanced Dynamics is introducing to the UK a label applicator for all types of labelling.

The Eurokett Vega is equipped with stepper motor drive to provide what is described as a high level of control during the labelling process.

It gives a +/-0.8mm position accuracy.

When supplied with the encoder-based speed tracking system, the dispenser is claimed to maintain extremely accurate label placement, even when the speed is varied during the application process.

In addition, the Vega has integrated programmable controls that are built in to the systems back plate.

No extra space is required to accommodate a traditional control box.

The operator interface for the controls can be rotated to ensure the correct orientation for vision, no matter where the dispenser is sited, said Advanced Dynamics.

The company added that the machine's compact design follows increased demand for smaller, easy-to-use dispensers.

Eurokett Vega is claimed to handle labels measuring 10mm width (minimum) to 110mm width (maximum).

It operates at speeds of up to 30 metres of label roll per minute, or up to 150 labels per minute.

Managing director of Advanced Dynamics, Malcolm Little, explained why the new dispenser has been introduced to the UK market: "We have found an increased market demand for smaller dispensers.

A stepper motor has been integrated in to the machine's design to provide a compact system that is very easy to operate and gives a high degree of label control." In addition to the benefits of an integrated motor, the dispenser is said to be simple to install.

Its 'plug and play' design means users only need a connecting pipe with a diameter of 50mm and an electric socket to get the system up and running.

Little explained why a plug and play option has been developed: "A modern machine cannot rely on great performance alone, it has to be user-friendly to meet high flexibility expectations.

The plug and play option offers simplicity and allows operators to handle the machine with the minimum of instruction.

The electronic display on the stepper motor is also very simplistic and easy to understand.".
