ID Technology, a ProMach product brand, introduces their new Model 258 print and apply label applicator with CrossMerge technology designed for labeling cases and trays with barcodes and alphanumeric text at high speeds.
The new Model 258 applicator features improved print quality and barcode readability with a unique one-button operation.
‘Our patent-pending CrossMerge technology allows us to decouple print speed from line speed and rotate the print head to change print orientation. This increases line throughput while decreasing print speed to simultaneously maximize packaging line output and enhance print quality,’ said Mark Bowden, vice president of sales and service at ID Technology. ‘Our next-generation Model 258 labeler also simplifies operation. Single-button functionality and the ability to easily swing the applicator from its running position to its service position and back make the 258 perfect for less trained operators in high turnover environments.”
Thanks to the CrossMerge technology, the new applicator prints barcodes in the picket fence direction and applies labels in landscape orientation. By rotating the print head, the 258 applicator can print a 4x2 label to apply a 2x4 label, which optimizes the conditions for both barcode printing and label application.
According to ID technology, it facilitates 50 percent more labels on the roll, running line speeds up to 50 percent faster and/or achieving 50 percent greater print head and print engine life.
Dedicated to labeling cases and trays, the 258 applicator prints and applies labels 3.5 to 6in (90 to 152mm) wide and 1.75 to 4in (45 to 100mm) in length to cases and trays on packaging lines running at speeds of up to 190 ft/min (58 m/min).
The 258 label applicator can be combined with a thermal transfer or direct transfer print engine to print linear and 2D barcodes, including serialized barcodes, and variable information text to bright stock or pre-printed pressure sensitive labels. An optional zero downtime configuration, with two integrated 258 machines, can speed changeover and maximize throughput.
