This is a washdown-rated, automatic, high speed, pre-price labeling system for beef
saddle packs.
A customer needed a system to apply one top label and one bottom label at a high rate
of speed.
This system will transform how you do pre-price labeling.
A package is conveyed onto the pacing conveyor, which will bunch up the product.
Next, the infeed conveyor will pull an equal gap between the packages by speeding each
one up.
This process ensures that only one package is on the conveyor scale at a time for proper
weighment.
The conveyor scale then weighs the package and sends the weight information to the controller.
The package proceeds to the labeling conveyor, where a top weigh price label with pricing & date
information is applied, followed by a branding label.
A backup printer/applicator was included to ensure this high capacity labeling line stays
operational.
While this customer only needed the saddle packs labeled, the weigh price labeler can
easily label individual ground beef packs at up to 100/minute. (label dependent)
Here are just a few of the features of this heavy gauge, washdown weigh price labeler:
A 3/16th's-inch thick, solid, stainless steel frame construction is an industry innovation
that includes multiple durability benefits such as washdown compatibility; a rigid frame
body reduces scale vibration and maintains an aesthetic appearance that stays pristine
for years.
The system is controlled by this ergonomic 17-inch touchscreen HMI/controller.
The touchscreen can be rotated or tilted to numerous positions during product setup or
product runs to accommodate varying worker height.
A conveyor scale with photoeyes sense the leading and trailing edge of a package for
proper weighment.
A transparent draft shield allows product visibility, while keeping error-inducing drafts
off of the scale.
This weigh price labeler utilizes a two-top printer/applicator and two bottom applicator
setup that labels packages at industry standard speeds and capacities.
The top printers are contained inside a NEMA-4X enclosure with a view window so that operators
can see the label-stock status.
The printers can be raised or lowered depending on package height and also rotated to ensure
proper label placement.
A partially preprinted label receives price, date and barcode date information, which is
applied to the top of the package.
The bottom section of the weigh price labeler also contains a printer/applicator.
This printer/applicator can apply up to 4.5" wide labels.
The label is advanced onto a label application conveyor and merged onto the bottom of the
package.
This printer/applicator is contained inside a large NEMA-4X enclosure which has doors
on the front and back to permit easy access to printer components.
We incorporated a pneumatic lift to lower the printer when label change out is needed.
The printer can also slide out for easy label-stock replacement.
This lever will give an operator the space needed to quickly change out labels rolls.
Once the new label roll is on, simply flip the lever and the printer will automatically
index the labels to the correct starting point.
Once all of the doors and covers are in place and securely latched, the entire unit can
be hit with heavy washdown.
The design approach of this unit ensures that you stay operational in harsh washdown environments
and repairs are affordable, when needed.
