360Y ACCESSORIES
The following is a partial list of accessories available for the 360y applicator.
Electronic Crossover: A “zero downtime” accessory and electronic interface between two applicators positioned in series on a
conveyor system. The crossover system monitors the primary applicator’s fault conditions and switches to a secondary applicator to
prevent interruption of production flow. When purchasing this option, ensure you receive (2) link port harnesses, (1) crossover cable,
and an encoder assembly with a splitter cable.
Imprinter: A hot stamp imprinter device mounted on special bracketry attached to the applicator and is usually a factory-installed unit.
Please contact the factory concerning the types of imprinters supported.
Loose Loop: Integrates an applicator with a direct thermal/thermal transfer printer in a “loose loop” fashion. This includes electrical
modifications to the printer, sensor array to monitor loop position, and mounting hardware to support the applicator and printer from a
vertical upright (includes yard arm). Since there are many printers and configurations, please contact the factory with your specific
needs.
Low Label Detection: A sensor that generates a signal when the unwind is low on labels. The applicator displays an alarm status box
at the Main Menu and activates the amber light on the alarm light stack (if purchased) to inform the operator that the unwind is about
to run out of labels. This option may be field installed.
Tamp Switch: Applied to tamp applicators that uses one or two sensors to control the tamp slide assembly. When the tamp home
switch is activated, the applicator dispenses a label onto the tamp pad. When the tamp return switch senses a product, the label is
applied to the product and the tamp pad returns to the peel edge.
Web Break Detection: A sensor that generates a signal when there is a break in the web. The applicator displays an alarm screen and
activates the red light on the alarm light stack (if purchased) to inform the operator that the label web is broken.
16in. and 20in. Unwinds: Unwind assemblies used for longer run applications. Before purchasing an unwind assembly, consult the
factory to determine if the speed of application and the amount of waste requires a powered rewind assembly.
Powered Rewind: Used in high-speed applications and in cases where it is necessary to wind up additional waste from an oversized
unwind assembly. This is a factory-installed option.
Clear Film Rewind Mandrels: A rewind mandrel used to take up waste from labels on a clear web liner. There are several types of
rewind mandrels designed to aid in the removal of liner waste when a film label liner is used. Please contact the factory with details of
your application.
Core Adapter: Standard core adapters for the 360y come in 3in. and 6in. diameters. Please contact the factory for nonstandard
diameters.
Alarm Light Stack: The 360y can handle up to three alarm lights:
• Red: Critical alarm
• Amber: Warning alarm
• Green: Ready signal
Light stacks may be purchased in one or three light configurations. A description of the different alarms can be found in the “Alarms”
section of the manual.
Line Rate Compensation: Kit that includes an encoder and interface cable. Splitter cables may be purchased to allow one encoder to
drive multiple applicators.
Clear Label Sensor: Sensor that detects clear labels on a clear liner.
Hardened Peel Edge Tips: Used when the peel edge tape is difficult, or the liner material is causing premature wear. CTM offers a
hardened peel edge for air blow, tamp, and merge applicator types. Please contact the factory for details and availability.
Snorkels: Used to place the applicator nose close to the labeling operation while the applicator remains farther away. CTM offers a
large variety of snorkel options. Consult the factory to find a solution to your requirements.
