Special Features & Options
The Model 5300 direct tamp system includes a number of noteworthy features that add to the operational versatility of this printer-applicator:
• Direct tamp application: This method of application is similar to tamp-blow, but the flexible tamp pad makes direct contact with the product. A printed label is fed into place and held by vacuum on the applicator pad; the pad is then extended and the label is applied to within a placement accuracy of ±0.03″.
• Browser-based monitoring: The status of all operational functions and configurations can be monitored by logging on to a web page that is unique to each Model 5300 unit.
• Numerous I/O’s: The system can be interfaced with many types of external devices.
• One-to-one media consumption: Special label unwind and rewind dimensions are matched to the system’s ribbon supply to ensure they are consumed at the same rate, reducing downtime and eliminating partial changeovers.
• Print job storage: Multiple label printing formats can be stored in the system’s memory, making it easier for an operator to select a job directly from the applicator instead of downloading a computer file.
The Model 5300 direct tamp system boasts numerous additional features, including an upgradeable microprocessor controller, various inputs/outputs, plus durable construction that will withstand harsh industrial environments.
There also are several optional enhancements that can increase the system’s functionality. A product height sensor, for example, enables the printer-applicator to label items of varying heights delivered by the same conveyor.
Other options include a 15-foot umbilical connection that enables the remote location of the unit’s controller; an adjustable stand for optimum system orientation; label-on-pad and product-presence sensors; plus beacon light alerts to signal the status of label and ribbon supplies.

5300Markoprint NonStop Printing
To enable continuous marking in ongoing production, our Markoprint NonStopPrinting printhead holds two alternately printing cartridges. Because the other ink cartridge is printing on the same position, each ink cartridge can be changed, cleaned, or serviced without pausing the machine.
An intelligent automatism prevents both cartridges from going empty at the same time. The first cartridge will always print two consecutive print jobs, taking turns with the second cartridge, which will only print one. This sophisticated automatism avoids both cartridges from running out at the same time. This will keep the ink from drying out in both cartridges. When the cartridge with the larger print volumes is empty, a warning will show, and the other cartridge will continue printing until it is replaced. The new cartridge will print the lower quantities to allow for you to replace the “older” cartridge. A sophisticated workflow that will boost your efficiency and productivity.

During a production halt, the printhead automatically retracts the cartridge and shuts the open nozzle plate. After being paused for even several days, it is instantly ready to print again.
View ProductGeset 117 Top and Bottom Labelling System
The Geset 117 labelling system is used to label square products on the top and bottom side automatically. Depending on the type and dimension of the product, different label sizes are used.

It is essential that the products are forwarded separately to the applicator with a gap between each other.
When the light barrier is reached, an application trigger is tripped. Both label applicators apply then in Wipe On procedure a label onto the product. The label on top side is pushed on the product by a brush or roller. The label on bottom side is pushed on the product by the self-weight of the product. After labelling the products move on and can be removed from conveyor by the customer.
