“Be Electric”, a new paradigm for print & apply
Weber Marking Systems shapes the future of labeling with electric print & apply solutions for both secondary and tertiary packaging.
Manufacturer of innovative and high-performance industrial labeling solutions, Weber Marking Systems has developed a complete line of two all-electric systems - LA4050B and AP182 - dedicated respectively to the printing and application of labels on secondary and tertiary packaging.
Defined by the motto “Be Electric”, the design approach behind the solution ensures not only high end-of-line productivity, but also superior performance in terms of accuracy, flexibility, reconfigurability, safety and control.
The advantages of electric
From secondary packaging...
Stefano Meroni, Sales Manager at Weber Marking Systems Italia explains: «Compared to pneumatic Print & Apply systems, the LA4050B electric solution boasts several strengths, ensuring, first and foremost, savings of up to 80% of the costs related to compressed air… which has an advantageous impact on TCO».
The second most-appreciated characteristic both by OEM and end-users is the easiness of future reconfigurability of the system: several automatic configurations are possible through the LA4050B software, without the need of any mechanical adjustments.
As always, safety is always a priority: thanks to its low torque applicator, LA4050B guarantees safe functioning and maintenance for operators.
Furthermore, electricity allows more control, enabling not only more precise applications but also the possibility of programming the stroke and continuing a cycle after an interruption without missing the label.
Available in 5 versions - Electrical Linear, Electrical Belt, Swing Arm, Corner Wrap and Blow Box - the system is suitable for the highest production rates, with a labelling speed of up to 400 mm/sec, up to 50% higher than traditional systems.
...to tertiary packaging.
For print & apply pallet labels, Weber offers its flagship solution: an intrinsically safe pallet labeler that can apply up to 3 labels in 3 adjacent sides of a pallet. AP182 it’s a compact electric system that operates without the need of protection barriers and given it’s enclosed in a stainless-steel cabinet is the best choice for hostile productions such as environments with extreme temperatures and dust.
