MAXSON AUTOMATIC MACHINERY COMPANY offers an pneumatically triggered tag inserter that provides a dependable actuation of the tag feed out and tag cut off. Compressed air passes through an adjustable flow control valve and activates an air cylinder, feeds out 6” (150 mm) of tag stock. When the solenoid is de-energized, (after a dwell time that allows a few sheets to gather on top of the tag), the cylinder which fed the stock out, retracts, cutting the tag off.
Using a counter/multiplier, at a preset count a solenoid is activated that initiates the tag insertion, insuring an accurate count within the pile. The tag inserters can be easily mounted on rotary sheeters, printing presses and the like. Because of the compact design, the units can be placed in tight quarters in various positions. The narrow snout of the tag inserter permits access in difficult to reach applications. Thousands are in operation, installed because of the tag inserter’s outstanding reliability and jam free operation.
