Weber Packaging Solutions has introduced the Model 114, a "quick and accurate" labelling system capable of applying labels to one or two sides of a product simultaneously.
The self-contained unit features one or two Alpha Compact label applicators mounted on a sturdy, fully adjustable base. It is said to be perfect for applying pressure-sensitive labels on straight-wall containers and has a label placement accuracy of ±0.03 inch, making it as precise as similar labelling systems used in larger-scale operations. Labels up to 6 inches high and 12 inches long can be applied to a variety of product sizes by using the system's adjustable guide rails.
Products are delivered to the applicator via a 7.75 inch-wide 45 inch-long conveyor, which permits item transfers at both the entry and discharge ends. Products are secured by a top hold-down belt right before the label is applied, ensuring that the items do not shift.
The Weber 114 can also be configured with a second Alpha Compact applicator, enabling it to label two sides of a product at the same time. It is said to be ideal for handling up to 25 products/m, making it a cost effective solution for low volume two-sided labelling such as square-sided beverage containers with unique front and back labels.
