The 360a Series Label Applicator evolved from the industry standard 360 Series Platform. The 360a can be configured as a merge, blow-on or tamp-blow applicator, 5, 7.5 or 10 widths and each module can also be easily switched to the opposite hand with few or no change parts in a minimum amount of time. All units are stepper motor driven to include State-of-the-art electronics and a Self-teaching label sensor. File encryption of the 360a allows for easy on-site software revisions and upgrades.

The CTM Pail Labeler is a heavy duty labeling system designed for use in industrial production environments where dependable, accurate and trouble free labeling of pails is required. Pail labelers are available with either 360 Series labelers or 3600 Printer Applicators. Fanfold label supply and roll fed label supply configurations are both available.

System Operation:
A Model 360 (apply only) or Model 3600 PA Series printer applicator is positioned reels up alongside the product conveyor and includes an air cylinder operated, tilt-out style, o-ring carrier grid to wipe on apply labels by contact. Attached to the labeler is an air cylinder operated, short travel, tilt-out vacuum grid, approx. 15 in length, which incorporates several variable speed, stepper motor driven o-ring belts to assist and carry the feed of long, soft labels; muffin fans are used for vacuum generation to hold the dry side of the label against the o-rings to impart travel. A firm felt wiper impresser attached at the end of the grid is to contact the surface of the product to press on the label for initial attachment; the label is attached as it is pulled off the grid by the advancing product. The motorized o-rings are moving during label dispense and are stopped when the leading edge of the label reaches under the apex of the felt wiper; a photoelectric label sensor determines the stopping position and is consistent even with varying lengths of labels.

Closely spaced, parallel handle guide rails (for handles in vertical position) are mounted to just clear the top of each product to maintain in-line orientation keeping the products from rotating out of position during travel to the hold-down belt stabilizer assembly.

Round products are manually loaded onto the infeed magazine. The indexing starwheel will remove one product at a time from the infeed magazine with each indexing motion. Once products have been captured by the starwheel, they are indexed to the labeling station where a powered roller spins the product as the label is applied. Labeled products will then continue around the starwheel until they fall onto the exit chute where they will fall into collection hopper (collection hopper or box is not included.)

The 360a Series Label Applicator is the most versatile, high performance industrial duty labeler on the market today. The 360a Series Label Applicator has understandably become the benchmark of labelers in its class due to its rugged and versatile design and standard features that are optional on most competitive machines. This labeler is now available in a form fill and seal (FFS) version. The new 360aFFS is designed for most form, fill and seal applications along with those applications that allow for a limited amount of space for the labeler. Application needs change? No problem, the 360aFFS has an adjustable snorkel that adjusts the applicators labeling point from 18 to 30. Just one more example of the versatility of the CTM 360a Series workhorse line. CTM 360aFFS Highlights:

Engineered to minimize the overall applicator size for those tough to reach labeling applications.
Adjustable snorkel length from 18 to 30 to encompass a wide range of labeling applications
Stepper drive motor will dispense up to 1500 inches per minute of dispense speed.
Auto Teach label set-up for label length, label stop and label sensor sensitivity.
Labels per minute rate indicator.
Totalizing label counter for data management.

The 3600a-PA Corner Wrap, Printer-Applicator is a rugged, high speed, thermal transferdirect thermal labeler used to print and apply pressure sensitive labels to the leading and side panels of various cartons, cases or pallets. To achieve the corner wrap the labeler swing arm rotates to initially apply a portion of the label to the leading panel and with continued product travel the pad maintains label contact to continue around the corner and on to the sidewall, and at the end of the sidewall portion the swing arm returns the pad to the labeler for the next label.

This corner wrap panel labeler uses a Sato, Zebra or Datamax print engine integrated into the applicator to print variable data with bar codes, alpha-numerics and graphics, and can be mounted in almost any position- up, down, reels up or upright depending upon label size and orientation of the label on the product. Normal and fine detail printing is available with a choice of 203, 305, 400 and 609 dpi print resolutions, depending on manufacturer.

Right hand and left hand versions are offered for either side of the conveyor handling labels up to 7.1 wide, up to 6.6 print width. All 3600a-PA units are equipped with multiple onboard IO signals prewired to external connectors, and the print engines offer Serial, Parallel, Ethernet, USB or wireless data communication.

The heavy duty, rack and pinion dual cylinder rotary actuator and custom designed swing arm length allows the unit to reach out to products which are not at the edge of the conveyor.

Set-up is easy, repeatable and stable with the micro plc controller with the color touch screen HMI display for operator access to set-up parameters.
