Instructions for Operation and Care of

MODEL CLAS Compact Label Applier

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL

The Compact Label Applier (CLAS) (Fig. 1) is an indexing and positioning conveyor which automatically weighs and labels packages, typically in a Supermarket Meat Department.

A wrapped package is placed on the Sealer Belt Conveyor (SP-5), is passed across the weigher conveyor , and is positioned on the CLAS platform. The Access PrePack System prints a label and the CLAS places the label on the package. The corner position of the label can be adjusted in the Access PrePack System. Once the label is placed on the package, the package is sent to a discharge device (conveyor or rotary bin) ready for display and sale.

Information about the SP-5 Sealer Belt Conveyor and Access PrePack System is available in separate Speciﬁ cation Sheets or Instruction Manuals.
