PPMA 2014: Videojet meets diverse coding needs

Published: 22-Aug-2014

Wide reaching solutions portfolio targets broad sector requirements

Videojet Technologies’ newly-launched Videojet 9550 Print and Apply Labelling (LPA) System will take centre stage among the solutions highlighting the company's broad portfolio.

The Videojet 9550 features Intelligent Motion technology to reduce the five most common reasons for LPA downtime -- label, web or ribbon jams, mechanical failures and mechanical adjustments. An intuitive touchscreen interface removes the potential for confusion with dual interfaces while built-in code assurance makes coding mistakes virtually impossible.

The Videojet 9550’s small footprint and simple mounting solutions enable the system to apply labels directly onto outer case and bundle packaging without the need for an applicator, achieving higher throughput and eliminating label jams. Its breakthrough design eliminates the mechanical adjustments, wear parts and failure points that can cause everyday operational problems, while minimal set-up time and a simple web path achieve label and ribbon changes in less than 60 seconds.

'As manufacturers implement and drive lean practices, their operations teams are focused on the high value tasks in their production flow,' said Richard Roth, Country Manager UK & Ireland. 'Most have limited time to focus on the end-of-line labelling systems that require mechanical adjustments and frequent intervention. Our new system was developed precisely to respond to these needs.'

Joining the Videojet 9550 Print and Apply Labelling (LPA) System will be examples from Videojet’s entire product portfolio, from continuous and thermal inkjet systems to large character marking systems, as well as CO2 and fibre lasers. All solutions are supported by a Videojet remote user interface based upon the intuitive CLARiTY operating system.

'Visitors will be able to see a wide array of systems to address any coding need,' added Roth. 'In our current environment of increasing needs for traceability and new regulations prescribing essential on-pack information, the need to deliver high quality coding has become an important driver for many operations.

'Furthermore, the list of sectors now seeking these kinds of capabilities is increasing, which is why we offer a broad portfolio with so many retrofittable options.'

Videojet’s expertise will be supported by exhibiting partners Interactive Coding Solutions (ICE), distributor for thermal transfer overprinting systems and Sunala, distributor of the Wolke m600 thermal ink jet coding systems. Together, Videojet, ICE and Sunala are the experts in coding and able to provide a solution for any coding requirement.
