New label printer-applicator from Weber combines economy with full-featured functionality. Weber Marking Systems has announced the introduction of its exclusive Model 2600 Series label printer-applicator, a medium-duty, in-line unit that merges economy with the functionality often associated with heavier-duty labeling equipment. Designed, engineered, assembled and available only from Weber, the Model 2600 Series offers a selection of thermal/thermal-transfer print engines. The units print 203- or 300-dpi text bar codes and graphic images at speeds up to 12” per second, and will dispense labels up to 4.5” wide and 6” in length. Labels are printed in a cost-efficient, next-out mode, and then immediately are applied to cartons or products on the production or packaging line. Utilizing the tamp-blow method of application, a printed pressure-sensitive label is peeled from its liner and is retained by vacuum on the applicator’s tamp pad. The pad is extended and the label is blown on to the surface from approximately 0.25”. Standard features include durable anodized aluminum construction, an external user interface with LCD display, easily accessible inputs/outputs to facilitate the use of product sensors and other options, and stepper-driven rewind for precise control. Options include a variable stroke sensor, label-on-pad sensor, and an adjustable stand. The Weber Model 2600 Series operates with Weber’s print-apply software, which simplifies label formatting, editing and printing. Weber also manufactures a wide variety of stock and custom pressure-sensitive label materials. Back to Weber Press Releases |
