Plate stage<br />

Description<br />

Uses suction cups to remove a label from the media<br />

(label roll), then turns to face the plate and applies the<br />

label.<br />

The button that starts a print-and-apply operation for<br />

batch runs administered by PlateTag.<br />

The position that holds a plate delivered by a person or<br />

robot.<br />

The plate stage rotates to allow labelling on all four sides<br />

and to allow a bar code to be read. It also moves up and<br />

down to accommodate almost any plate.<br />

Note: If you purchased your VCode to use as a standalone<br />

instrument and later decide to integrate it into<br />

a BenchCel or BioCel, you may need to replace the<br />

plate stage with a different type. Contact the<br />

Velocity11 Service Center for more information.
