“One to One” Print & Apply Label Applicator
Designed to automatically print and apply self-adhesive labels in real time “one to one” (last label printed is the label applied), ALcode is fast, efficient and reliable.
Compatible with most computer systems, ALcode labellers are easy to integrate with existing production equipment or host control systems via a range of interface options including Ethernet or Wireless.
ALcode labelling systems can also be provided with an integrated control system, for label design and selection local to the applicator where a PC or host is either not available or not practical.
ALcode labellers are modular in design, providing an extremely flexible solution to most variable data labelling requirements. They integrate the various thermal transfer print engines built by the international manufacturer SATO, which have been specifically developed for the use in automatic applicators.
ALcode can also be specified with alternate print engines from such manufacturers as ZEBRA, TOSHIBA and DATAMAX to name but a few, with their respective print resolutions and control interfaces.
In each ALcode the mechanics, pneumatics and electronics have been suitably designed & constructed to meet typical requirements of machines operating in an industrial environment, thus matching reliability, with user friendliness, accessibility, & interchange ability.
ALcode features a range of standard modular application devices to allow label application at almost any point and at any linear speed.
A selection of these devices include:
Air-blow applicator, with or without piston, for non contact labelling of products moving at high speed
Tamp applicator for by contact labelling of still products, or in recessed areas
Swinging roll applicator for by contact labelling of products moving at high speed
Swinging plate application system, for contact labelling of moving product, of varying size with different label sizes.
Rotary arm applicator for front/back and/or corner labelling of both still and moving products.
ALTech is also able to develop custom application systems to allow us to
meet the requirements of nearly any automatic print and apply labelling application.
ALcode is available with a comprehensive range of options. These
include:
- Laser scanner for barcode & label application check
- Product handling and transfer systems
- Safety protection/anti dust cabinets
- Multiple labelling programs
- Near-end-of roll control
