Launched at this year's PPMA Show, the Logopak Logomatic 510 Rota is a new generation print & apply labelling machine that allows high volume goods such as pharmaceuticals, CDs and some tobacco products to be identified at full line speed with a unique barcode.

The company says that, unlike some standard print & apply machines that are designed for speeds to 100/min, the Logomatic 510 Rota is able to reach speeds of 240 a minute using a six head rotary applicator. This allows application of one label as the next is printed, boosting machine speed.

The new machine is based on a standard Logopak 515 case labeller but with the printed labels picked up by vacuum on the rotary applicator and then transferred to the pack by direct pressure or air-blast.

As a result, operation is virtually continuous motion, with no reciprocating parts.
