Automated labelling
September 1st 2007

Castleisland Mart, one of Ireland's livestock auctioneers,has achieved substantial cost savings due to a labelling system devised by Weber Marking Systems for the faster and more efficient production and application of labels.

Prior to investing in the system, Castleisland had been using paper labels, usually hand-written, to detail lot number. These were then applied with glue.

The company installed an automated labelling software package, including Weber's Zebra 2746e printer, and then asked Weber to design a self-adhesive labelling solution that would allow them to print a lot number automatically from the system.

Weber recommended the combination of a 76 by 73mm Fastyre label and Weber Easymark B220 Ribbon. The label specification has now been refined by adding a perforation on the backing paper between each label to increase ease of use for operators.
