Printing and applying system PAM 2300
The PAM 2300 system is designed especially for the fully automatic print and apply applications in the industrial area. The system can be installed in positions and locations to suit your process. The electrical and mechanical interfaces are compatible to PAM 2000 systems. Characters, bar codes and graphics are printed with excellent quality at high speed using a high performance printhead. Labels are printed, dispensed and applied with high accuracy . By using the SPI-interface all applicators can be controlled in an easy and comprehensively.
BRADY as a supplier of printing and applying systems offers high quality and a complete service to its customers. Labels and ribbons in many different dimensions and materials. Please contact BRADY for further details. Technical Data Printing principle Thermal transfer printing Printing head Flat Head Resolution: 300 dpi Printing speed: 100-200 mm/s Printing width: 106.6 mm Intelligent printing head control The printing head is generally lifted up from the printing roller and is only pulled down during the printing procedure. Therefore, damages of the printing roller and adhesive bleed will be minimised. Character Fonts 5 bitmapfonts incl. OCR-A, OCR-B 3 vectorfonts and speedo- and true-type fonts are integrated. Character sets Windows 1252/1250, IBM Codepage 850/852, EBDIC, ISO 8859-1, ISO 8859-8, Macintosh. All european and latin special characters are available. Character size Vector fonts: Width can be scaled up between 0.9 an 128 mm Bitmap fonts: Height and width 1-3 mm can be scaled up to factor 10. Character format Bold, italics, underline, outline, inverse, grey (depending on the different fonts) Print direction Bitmap fonts and bar codes: 0°, 90°, 180°, 270° Speedo and Truetype fonts can be turned into any angle. Texts can be printed in circular form. Labels can be printed mirror-inverted. Graphic elements Line, box, circle, eclipse, filling elements, arrows Graphic format PCX, IMG, BMP, TIF, GIF, MAC Bar codes CODE 39, CODE 93 Interleaved 2/5 CODE 128 A, B, C Ident- und Leitcode Codabar der Deutschen Post AG EAN 8, 13, 128 Jan 8, 13 EAN/UCC 128 MSI EAN/UPC Anhang 2 Plessey EAN/UPC Anhang 5 Postnet FIM UPC A, E HIBC UPS Maxicode 2-D Barcodes Data Matrix, PDF 417 Height, width and ratio of all bar codes can be scaled. If necessary all bar codes can be printed with checksum or start/stop code Interfaces Serial 8-bit: RS-232 C1.200 - 57.600 Baud/s RS-422 1.200 - 57.600 Baud/s RS-485 1.200 - 57.600 Baud/s Parallel: Centronics Interface for periphery SPI-interface for applicators. Power supply for sensor "end of ribbon","end of labels" and indicator light. Diagnostics When switching on the system the controller runs a self-test. All system parameters can be printed out. Error messages are indicated on the display. Process materials / Labels Thermal paper, standard paper Synthetic foil in:: PE, PP, PVC, PA, HTR, Kapton, Polyimide Min/Max grams of labels: 60-160 gr/m 2 Max width of liner: up to 120 mm Min/Max width of label: 10-116 mm MinMax height of label: 4-546 mm Core diameter: 76 mm Max. diameter of label suppling roll: up to 200 mm Labels can be rewinded inside or outside. Ribbon Length: 450 m 600 mm on inquiry Width: up to 110 mm Core diameter: 25 mm Outer diameter of roll: up to 92 mm Ink inside or outside Data processor 32 Bit, Motorola Memory 2 MByte PCMCIA-port for PC-Card 2, 4 MByte Label Pull-back To make sure, that the print is starts from a defined distance from the front edge of the label, it is possible to pull the next label back after an executed printing job and to restart automatic positioning. To avoid any damage to the ribbon and abrasion between label and ribbon the printing head is lifted up while moving. Label saver Before switching off or after switching on, the label material can be pulled back. Therefore, any loss of labels will be avoided. Ribbon saver The ribbon saver is active up to an unprinted label length of 12 mm. The ribbon is saved by locking the supply roll and lifting up the printing head. Internal rewinder For rewinding the liner after dispensing the labels. Core diameter: 40 mm Diameter of roll: up to 145 mm Control of labels and ribbon End of ribbon, end of labels and the position of the printing head is controlled continiously. Any error stops the machine and is indicated on the display. Label sensor The positioning is made by evaluation of reflection or transparence of the label/liner material. Further features Time and date can be generated by the CPU-clock and can be printed out. The actual printing job is indicated on the display. Operation Panel 4 keys with LED's and illuminated LCD with 2x16 characters. All reports can be indicated in 8 different languages. The operation panel can be turned into steps of 90°. Dimension H x W x D 390x277x420 mm Weight 21 kg Power supply 230V~/115V~ 50 - 60 Hz Operation temperature The printer operates in a range of temperature between 10-3?°C and a humidity between 10-35% Options Memory cards PCMCIA cards up to 4 Mbyte Keyboard interface To connect PC-compatible keyboard for stand-alone operation.
