Sporty performance with up to 2,400 labels per hour!
Endurance, speed and precision are important features ‒ not only in sports, but they are often pivotal in industry and trade as well. In the mail order business, for instance, cartons must be labelled quickly and reliably. At 2,400 cycles/hour, the high performance labelling machine Legi-Air 6000 from Weber Marking Systems will rapidly and accurately label passing product cartons with heights varying up to 500 mm.
After a sensor upstream has measured the height of the approaching product to label, the applicator will travel to its correct position at lightning speed. This reduces the travelling distance during labelling, whilst simultaneously also dispensing labels more accurately and up to 50 percent faster than applicators using pneumatically driven cylinders. Its consistently lightweight design sporting carbon fibre components for the moving parts is also instrumental. The applicator is ca. 80 percent lighter than conventional models.
