LA-SO Product Description

Product Description

Product name

LA-SO is the abbreviation for "Label Applicator Swing-On". The abbreviation ‘SO’

(swing on) distinguishes this applicator from other application techniques such as

‘blow on’ or ‘tamp on’.

Intended Use

The advantage of the LA-SO is that it can be used to apply labels to the fronts [1C]

of products, which is not possible using classic tamp-on applicators (e.g., LA-TO).

Furthermore, the LA-SO can also apply labels to the sides or tops of products moving

at speeds faster than 20 m/min.

Configurations

The LA-SO is available in both right-handed and left-handed versions. LA-SO and

ALX 92x must be of the same handedness, that is both must be RH or LH versions.

System requirements

Compressed air • Compressed air connection must be available

• Mounting surface for pressure controller: See Installing the pressure reducer 

on page 15

ALX 92x • ALX 92x with standard dispensing edge and firmware version 5.33 or higher.

• Installed applicator interface (optional) with firmware version 1.23 or higher. If the

applicator interface was retrofittet, pay attention that the D-Sub 15 connector for

Avery applicators (top side of the front hood) is available.

LA-SO Product Description

Functionality

The LA-SO is a supplementary module for mounting at an ALX 92x. It takes over la-

bels from the dispensing edge of the ALX 92x and moves them in a curved move-

ment to the product, where it presses the labels on (frontside) or rolles it on (side, top

side).

The advantage of the LA-SO is that it can apply labels to the front side of a product,

which is not possible with classic tamp-on applicators (e.g. LA-TO).

Furthermore, the LA-SO can label products that are moving with more than 20 m/min

on the side or top side.

[1] Designations for the sides of the product. Possible label positions for side labelling (left figure) and

top labelling (right figure).

ASide

BTop

CFront

Initially, the LA-SO is in idle mode and the swivel arm is folded inwards.

As soon as a start signal is received from the product sensor, the ALX 92x prints and

dispenses a label [2B]. The stream of compressed air emitted from the support air

nozzle [2A] presses the label against the pressure plate of the LA-SO [2C]. The label

is held in place there by a vacuum created by the fan on the swivel arm.

[2] Dispensing labels onto the pressure plate.

Once a label has been dispensed, a compressed air valve switches and causes the

swivel arm to move. The swivel movement ends once the time limit set in the ALS 92x

menu elapses. This time limit must be set so that the swivel arm reaches the product

before the reverse movement begins.

LA-SO Product Description

Front labelling When applying labels to the front of a product, the entire surface of the label is

pressed against the pressure plate [3].

[3] Side labelling with LA-SO (RH) (B) on product front (A).

Side labelling When labelling the side of a product, the end of the label is first pressed against the

pressure roller. As the product moves forwards, it pulls the label away from the pres-

sure plate and the pressure roller presses the label against the product [4].

Label material

Label rate

Example:

With the application shown afterwards (Tab. 1) [5], a rate of 18 labels/min is possible.



If one of the settings is changed, all other settings must be fit, what may also

change the label rate.

[5] LA-SO example application (schematic).

Type Self-adhesive (paper, plastic materials)

a) As a result of static charge and friction effects, plastic materials may tend to crease during the dispen-

sation step. Therefore, plastic materials must be tested under application conditions before being

used in production.

Material width 80-150 mm

Material length 80-210 mm

Label on front max. 20 labels/min

a) Depends on: pressure speed, pressure rate, product distance, product speed, label size and label ma-

terial.

Label on top/side max. 30 labels/min

General safety notes

• Operating air pressure: 4-6 bar.

• The applicator must not be operated outdoors or in EX-areas.

• The applicator may only be installed and started up by authorized technicians.

• Lay cables and compressed air hoses in a way that nobody can stumble over it.

• Fix pneumatic hoses against lashing.

• Immediately replace defective pneumatic hoses.

• Only authorized technicians who are familiar with the associated hazards are

permitted to repair the applicator.

• Check the applicator regularly for faulty components. Immediately replace any

defective components with OEM parts! This reduces any safety hazards resulting

from the use of low quality parts.

• The on-off valve of the applicator must be set correctly. After switching on the

supply air, the swivel arm of the applicator must move slowly to the home posi-

tion. If the swivel arm moves abruptly, the on-off valve must be checked regard-

ing a defect or a misalignment of the valve, see Setting the on-off valve on

page 19.

• Never modify the design of the applicator (e.g., by installing a higher capacity

pneumatic cylinder). If the applicator is altered without authorization or used in

an unintended manner, all liabilities for damage and any other guarantees from

the manufacturer shall be rendered null and void.

WARNING!

Danger of cuts and crush injuries especially at the following points:

• Between the swivel arm of the applicator and the dispensing edge.

• Between the swivel arm and a conveyor belt, if present.

Never operate the applicator without the protective equipment. See chapter

Connecting an interlocking guard on page 10.

Never remove or disable the safety equipment.

Never touch the applicator while it is moving.

When adjusting the system, make sure that the applicator is not actuated unin-

tentionally.

LA-SO For your safety

Connecting an interlocking guard

According to the EC machinery directive, the LA-SO is a partly completed machine.

In order that the completed machine matches the health and safety requirements of

the machinery directive, LA-SO must be safeguarded against access by an appropri-

ate safeguarding device

(see [11]).

Connect the interlock switch [11D] of the safeguarding device to the connector

[9A] delivered with the applicator (see [10E]).

Plug the connector to the switch box [9B].



Operation of the LA-SO without the described safeguarding device shall be re-

garded as abnormal use. Avery Dennison assumes no liability for damage due to ab-

normal use of the printer.

[9] Connecting the interlock switch (A) of the safeguarding device (or an emergency-stop switch) to a

LA-SO.

[10] Plug that comes with the LA-SO for

connecting an interlock switch to the

LA-SO (article number: A102076).

1) Movable interlocking guard according to EN ISO 12100-1, 3.25.4
