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.
