Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 11 Description 2. Description CAUTION! - The machine is connected to mains. Only authorised personnel may open the cover. Operation without this cover is not allowed. This chapter explains the structure and the function of the labeller.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 12 Description Figure 1 Dispensing mechanics At the dispensing edge (010) the label is separat ed from the backing paper. By means of a soft (005) roller the label is applied on to the product. Roller (012) makes sure that the material is always guided properly around the dispensing edge.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 13 Description Dispensing is only possible when the handle (015) is in the closed position. Via the deviator roller (016) the backing paper is guided to the rewind mandrel (017). The cone between the 4 pins can be pulled out to allow the reward backing paper to b e removed.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 14 Description PRIOR: This key moves up the menu (prior function) or increases the value of a parameter. If the up arrow key is pressed and held as the machine is turned on the product menu is selected. NEXT: This key moves down the menu (next function) or decreases the value of a parameter.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 15 Description 2.3 Plug board The plug board is shown in Figure 3. Beside the mains switch and the mains cable socket there are some more holes for optional functions. Standard execution in this m achine is one I/O plug prepared for the product sensor.

Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 17 Preparing the machine 3. Preparing the machine In this chapter you will learn how to install and adjust the labeller. After this step ha s been completed you will be ready to learn how the labeller's parameters can be adjusted to suit your particular production requirements.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 18 Preparing the machine 1.2 Prepare dispensing 1.2.1 Insert material Insert your label material in the machine to follow the instructions in the chapter Operation / Threading.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 19 Preparing the machine Setting LPIT manually To initialise labels with cut outs such as the one shown below - the "LPIT" parameter should be used to enter the label pitch of the label web.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 20 Preparing the machine A mechanical sensor is limited in the speed. The bounce at the label edges produces wrong signals. There is optional a capacitive label sensor available (Leuze GK14/24L). Adjustment of the sensor is carried out as follows (Figure 5): 1.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 21 Preparing the machine With a L-dispensing the adjustment is done by move the tail sheaves behind the dispensing edge.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 22 Preparing the machine 3.3.3 Automatic dispensing speed (APSF) With a connected rotary encoder, the dispensing speed follow s the measured product speed. To adjust the speed use the EGRA function located in the extended standard menu.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 23 Operation 4. Operation This chapter describes the operation of the machine. 4.1 Safety recommendation CAUTION! y Before connections to the mains check the correct voltage selection. y Use only original spare parts for service.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 24 Operation 4.2 Inserting label material Attention: • Before threading the new material, the waste paper should be removed. CAUTION! - Isertion/exchange of material should be carried out only by especially instructed personal.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 25 Operation 4.3 Initialise new label material The machine requires data of the label material in use i.e. label length a nd opacity of the label and backing material. In most cases, those parameters can be scanned during automatic initialisation.

Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 28 Operation pressing the key PRIOR the value is increased, i.e. the label is put on later. By pressing the key NEXT FUNCTION the value is decreased and the label is p ut on earlier. The labelling position is also changed by variation of the pro duct speed.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 29 Operation Figure 9 Stop position Dispense speed __________________________________________________ VELO The speed value VELO displays the dispensing speed in 0.1 m/min. The product conveyor speed has to be constant to assure accurate lab elling.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 30 Operation If you want to switch to another product, select the respectiv e product number by pressing NEXT and PRIOR, then press ENTER. Now the new product data are activated. To change the labelling parameters you can call t he extended menu.

Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 55 Connections and signals 8. Connections and signals This machine has a number of inputs to connect sensor’s and a control. Outputs are available for applicators, a printer and other purposes. 8.1 Output signals This machine has eight outputs, which switch the output from open circuit to + 24V.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 56 Connections and signals 8.2 Applicator modes The machine is able to dispense the label direct on the passing product. There is also the possibility to drive without any external control a wide range of applicators.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 57 Connections and signals 8.2.2 Control signals for the ASA applicator For controlling an air stream applicator the signals air- stream and blow on are nece ssary. The time period APT2 defines how long the blow on signal is active.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 58 Connections and signals 8.2.3 Signals for the EP applicator For controlling the applicator the signals air st ream, cylinder valve and blow on are necessary. After a product signal has occurred the labelling cylinder valve is switched active after the delay STAD.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 59 Connections and signals 8.2.4 Applicator connector The applicator connection is done via a 15 pole D-sub connector common to other machines.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 60 Connections and signals 8.3 Input signals This machine (dispenser) is provided with photo coupled inputs for: y the product sensor signal y an inhibit signal for inhibiting labelling y a signal from an OD control which shows the end of the material roll.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 61 Connections and signals 8.3.1 Product sensor The product sensor starts the labelling. The source of the signal could be a optical sensor, a switch or a signal from a PLC. The time between start signal and start of dispensing (adjusted with POS) should be as small as possible.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 62 Connections and signals 8.3.2 OD Control sensor Optional an OD control could be mounted to control the label roll. If the label material is nearly empty the sensor gives an signal. A warning message and an output signal inform the personal that in the next time the material has to be changed.
Operators Manual ALS 230 Release 11/05 Page 63 Connections and signals 8.3.3 APSF sensor For the APSF function (Automatic speed follower) a rotary encoder has to be installed. For optimum labelling accuracy the rotary encoder s hould be selected so that it produces one pulse for every 0.
