What it is

A label feeder is a servo-driven supply unit that takes a reel of pre-printed labels and presents them one row at a time at the position where the placement machine’s nozzle picks up components. The label is then placed in the same pass as the components, on the same machine, without a separate labeling station.

The unit is keyed to two things: the placement machine it mounts on, and the widest label it has to handle.

Specifications

These values are common to the reel-fed label feeder range.

Model selection

Models are grouped by the placement machine they fit, then by the structure variants for non-standard platforms. All dimensions are the feeder’s own outer envelope in millimetres.

Notes on the range

  • Reel bore is 76.2 mm and outer diameter 200 mm. Other reel sizes can be made to order.
  • Label length can be customized, and the number of columns follows the material.
  • The feeder is designed for DC 24 V. The supply must be able to deliver more than 2 A; the 80 mA average and 1 A peak figures describe what the feeder draws, not what the supply must provide.
  • When placement speed is not the constraint, a feeding speed of 30–50 holds the label steadier at the pickup point.
  • Materials other than paper labels are handled on the same unit: FPC stiffening steel sheet, Mylar tape, foam, thermal pads, dust mesh and high-temperature tape on roll.
