Alpha V40 Pressure-Sensitive Label Applicator

Weber’s new Alpha V40 label applicator provides fast, dependable labeling for a diverse range of applications. This versatile system employs the wipe-on or tamp-blow method to apply pressure-sensitive labels in line at high speed.

The Alpha V40 automatically peels labels from the liner, then gently but firmly affixes them to products or packages as they pass by on a conveyor line or other handling system.

The wipe-on unit applies labels up to 4.72" wide and 19.7" long (98" long optional) at speeds up to 210 feet per minute, while the tamp-blow model handles labels up to the same width and 6.3" long. Both systems apply labels to an accuracy of ±0.04".

• Up to 30 different label settings can be stored, making label changeovers virtually effortless.
• Automatic compensation for missing labels on the web helps prevent double or skipped labeling.
• Sensor delay function provides for the exact positioning of labels without the need to relocate the product sensor.

T
he front panel of the compact control box also features LCD readouts that include a label counter, length of feed, rate of advance, label sensor status, and more.

Reliability and versatility
The Alpha V40 boasts rugged cast aluminum construction to provide the durability required to withstand the rigors of industrial environments. In addition, the system’s powerful stepper motor helps provide system control and dependable labeling accuracy.

Versatile options for the automatic labeling system include various product/package sensors, label sensor, warning/alert light array, and an adjustable mounting stand. Weber also manufactures a complete selection of standard, custom and prime labels to meet virtually any labeling need.
