WITH LABOUR shortages, the warehousing, logistics and e-commerce sectors are having to handle more packages than ever with fewer workers. These challenges can be partly addressed by a single piece of technology – the Prime Vision Flow Projector.
THE THERMOMARK Prime 2.0 mobile thermal transfer printer from Phoenix Contact can be used in a wide range of applications. The compact device is suitable for central use in a marking cell as well as for marking directly in the application environment. This enables the efficient and flexible design of workflows and offers a huge advantage, especially in large systems.
