GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE 2.1.


The machine can be constructed in various configurations so as to adapt to various plant layouts and satisfy
a wide variety of labeling needs.
The machine can be equipped with a variety of components that allow it to adapt to the various different container and label formats.

The Rollmatic automatic rotary labeling machine is


designed and constructed for applying wrap-around labels with hot-melt glue (distributed on its two ends) on
cylindrical and/or shaped containers, complete and
product and sealed closed.
Upon request, the machine can be supplied with a
pressurization system for labeling empty containers.
The machine is produced in (S) and (N) versions.
Machine version (S): can label cylindrical or shaped
containers. The plates are rotated by the lobe cam.
Machine version (N): can only label cylindrical containers. The plates are rotated by pulley transmission.
The application of the labels is extremely precise
thanks to the use of an aligner that automatically corrects the slightest movement and keeps the film perfectly horizontal.
The machine is equipped with an operations terminal
that allows setting and controlling all operating functions of the work cycle with great precision.
The starting and stopping of the machine can be either
manual or programmed. In the latter case, the machine
is preheated, starts and stops production automatically
according to a preset schedule.

This machine does not require the constant presence


of an operator.
It is sufficient for the employee selected by the line
manger check its operation and, when necessary, resupply the reels and glue.
The illustration shows several configurations for different types of container (entry/exit) feeds.

GENERAL RULES

3.1.

Do not tamper with, circumvent, remove or bypass the


installed safety devices. Failure to observe this requirement can cause series risks to the safety and
health of yourself and others.

During the design and construction phase, the builder


has paid particular attention to those aspects that
could be hazardous to the safety and health of those
working with the machine. In addition to observing current law on the subject, the builder has following "good
construction practices." The purpose of this information is to sensitize users to the need to pay particular
attention to prevent all other risks. There is no alternative to common sense. All operators working with the
machine are responsible for safety.

The personnel who perform any type of intervention


throughout the entire life of the machine must have
specific technical skills, particular abilities and recognized, earned experience in the specific sector. The
failure to observe these requirements can damage the
health and safety of yourself and others.

Carefully read the instructions in the manual provided


and those directly applied, especially those regarding
safety. A little time spent reading will spare you unpleasant incidents; it is always too late when you remember what you should have done after an accident
has already happened.

During operation, use only the clothing and/or individual protective devices indicated in the instructions for
use provided by the builder and those required by current occupational safety regulations.
During normal use or for any intervention, maintain the
perimeter spaces, especially access to the controls,
under conditions adequate to prevent risks to the safety and health of yourself and others.

Inserting this machine into a system requires an overall plan that keeps in mind the requirements of "good
practice," as well as laws and regulations. Particular
attention should be paid to all the instructions and
technical information provided by the builder.

Several phases may require the assistance of one or


more helpers. In these cases it will be a good idea to
train them and adequately inform them about the type
of activity to perform so as not to cause harm to the
safety and health of yourself and others.

Pay attention to the meanings of the applied plates;


their shape and color are meaningful for safety purposes. Keep them legible and observe the information
shown.

RULES FOR HANDLING AND INSTALLATION 2.2.


All the installation phases must be taken in account,
starting the with the creation of an overall plan. In addition to defining the installation site, before beginning
these phases the person authorized to perform these
operations must, if necessary, actuate a "safety plan"
to protect those directly involved from injury and to rigorously apply all the laws, with particular reference to
those regarding mobile job sites.

Lift and handle the machine with respect for the information shown directly on the packing, on the machine
and in the use instructions provided by the builder.
The personnel who load, unload and handle the machine must have ability and earned and recognized experience in the specific sector and must have mastery
of the lifting means to be used.
The machine must be lifted and transported using
equipment of adequate capacity and anchoring the
machine at the points provided by the builder. Those
who are authorized to perform such operations must
have specific abilities and experience for the purpose
of safeguarding their safety and that of the other persons involved.

During the installation phase, respect the perimeter


spaces indicated by the builder, also keeping in mind
all the surrounding work activities. This requirement
should also be implemented with respect for current
law on the subject of occupational safety.
Installation and hook-ups should be performed conforming to the builder's instructions. The individual responsible must also take in account the legal and
regulatory requirements, performing all installation and
hook-up operations in a workman-like manner. When
the installation is completed, but before beginning to
use the machine, he must make a general inspection
to verify that these requirements have been respected.

RULES FOR OPERATION AND USE

2.3.

The machine has been designed and constructed to


satisfy all the operating conditions indicated by the
builder. Tampering with any device to achieve performance other than that anticipated can jeopardize
the safety and health of yourself and others and cause
property damage.

In addition to being suitably documented and trained in


the use of the machine, the operator must possess the
necessary abilities and skills for the type of work to be
performed.
Even after being appropriately documented, at the first
use the operator should simulate some test maneuvers, if necessary, to identify the controls and their
main functions, especially those relative to starting and
stopping.

Do not use the machine unless all safety devices are


perfectly installed and in working order. Failure to observe this requirement can cause series risks to the
safety and health of yourself and others.

The machine is only to be used by for those purposes


anticipated by the maker. Using the machine for improper purposes can jeopardize the safety and health
of yourself and others and cause property damage.

RULES FOR ADJUSTMENT AND MAINTENANCE 2.4.


Maintain the machine in perfect working order, performing the scheduled maintenance required by the
builder. Good maintenance will allow you to achieve
better performance, longer working life and constant
observance of safety standards.

Maintenance and adjustments must be performed by


authorized personnel, who must provide all necessary
safety conditions and observe the indicated procedures.
All maintenance interventions that require a precise
skill or particular ability must be performed exclusively
by qualified personnel with recognized experience
earned in the specific intervention sector.

Before performing any maintenance or adjustments,


activate all safety devices provided and evaluate
whether or not it is necessary to inform the personnel
who are working on and around the machine. In particular, place suitable signs around the perimeter to prevent access to all those devices that, if activated, could
cause conditions of unexpected danger, damaging the
safety and health of yourself and others.

When performing maintenance in areas that are dangerous or not easily accessible, provide adequate
safety conditions for yourself and others, following current occupational safety law.
Replace worn parts with original replacement parts.
Use the oils and greases shown in the manual. All this
will ensure that the system performs at the expected
operational and safety level.
