AP360/362 Label Applicator 13
4. Press the Foot Switch to apply the labels. Both labels will be applied
without pressing the Foot Switch again.
To set a value for another memory location, repeat this procedure.
Note: The distance values are approximate. Adjusting the position of the
Container Idler Roller will affect the actual distance between the labels on the container.
C. Calculate distances for two-label mode.
If you intend to apply two labels to the same container you will typically want to center the
second label so that you have the same distance between each label on both sides. Use this
formula to calculate the proper distance setting (see Section 4B).
1. First Calculate the circumference of your container.
diameter of container x Pi = circumference
2. Now subtract the width of both front and back labels from the circumference and
divide by two.
(circumference - width of front label - width of back label) / 2
3. Subtract the distance between the labels on the liner (the distance between the labels while they
are still attached to the roll) from the value received in step 2.
Example:
If your bottle is 3 inches in diameter, your front label is 4 inches wide, your back label is
2.5 inches wide, and the distance between the labels on the liner is .12, the distance value
to enter would be 1.34 inches.
3 x
π = 9.42
(9.42 - 4 - 2.5)/2 = 1.46 - 0.12 = 1.34
Note: The value given by this formula is a good starting point. Some
adjustments may be needed depending on the particular container
and the Container Idler Roller position.
D. Count labels (AP362 Only)
By default the AP362 Label Applicator will begin to count labels. This
count will be displayed on the LCD. If you press any of the buttons on
the control panel the label count will momentarily disappear. It will
reappear ten seconds after the button is pressed. (Figure 4.3.)
Press and hold the Recall/Reset Button for five seconds to reset the label
counter to zero.
Note: The label counter will reset to zero if power is switched off.
