More and more label dispensers of the newer generation are switching from compressed air to electricity and are thus becoming an energy and cost saver. With the Legi-Air 6000 high-performance labeller, Bluhm Systeme has for the first time introduced a labeller whose applicator is driven not pneumatically but servo-electrically. The advantages of such a drive in the labelling area are obvious: it is less expensive and at the same time it enables higher cycle rates and more accurate labelling. The Legi-Air 6000 labels continuous, different height cartons very fast, enduringly, and precisely. With a label format of DIN A6 and with 500 mm product height difference, it manages 2,250 cycles per hour. With the servo-motor-driven dispensing applicator made of carbon fiber, the system labels up to 50 % faster and with more exact positioning than with a pneumatically operated cylinder. Controlling is cost and space optimized by a microprocessor control. A separate switch cabinet can be spared.•
