One of the great things of being part of ID
Technology is the huge number of labeling applications we can handle. Our LSI
facility in New Jersey specializes in designing and building integrated
labeling solutions for a wide range of industries and this Model 1800 System is
a good example.
The customer is a meat packaging company,
packaging a range of fresh meat products in vacuum sealed packages. The
customer needed the flexibility to be able to accurately apply pressure
sensitive labels to the top and bottom of the package or just to either the top
or bottom. In addition, variable date codes had to be printed onto the labels
at the time of labeling.
Being designed for use in a meat packing
environment, this Model 1800 is built using stainless steel and anodized
aluminium. It uses two of our Series 40 label applicators, one mounted above
the low profile, split conveyor and one below. Each label applicator has an ID
Technology Compact 32d, thermal transfer overprinter fitted, to take care of
date coding needs.
The touch screen interfaces for the Series
40 applicators are mounted in the central stainless steel control box. The
label sequence controls, allows the operator to quickly set up for the
particular label configuration needed for the next production job.
This integrated labeling system is intended
to run at 75 products per minute and is just one of the many ID Technology
labeling solutions that are available for the meat processing industry. All are
designed to be tough enough to handle the conditions found in your business.
