Print & Apply for case and pallet labeling

The coding of cases and pallets requires adequate solutions to the most demanding cadences in the production chain. Print & Apply equipment must not only be able to respond to speed needs, but also provide sufficient flexibility regarding the physical location of the labels and the method of application.

 

In addition, industrial labelers must seek easy integration into any automation system, ensure compliance with global coding and traceability standards, and, ultimately, facilitate the process as much as possible so that the merchandise makes its way fluently through the entire production line.

 

Print & Apply systems combine a print engine and a dispensing and application system in the same machine. The adaptability of its physical configuration to the production line and its ability to integrate with the customer's ERP is what will make a difference in an increasingly competitive market context.

 

UBS equipment, both for labeling secondary and tertiary products, meet the highest quality requirements and stand out for its ease of integration into any production line. We work with the best print engines on the market, usually Zebra, Sato and Honeywell, although we adapt to any other preference of our clients.

 

APL 35s: UBS solution for secondary product labeling

 

 

 

At UBS we have developed Print & Apply equipment to optimize the labeling of cases, bags and packs. Our machines print in real time all the necessary information on each label, and adapt to the required cadence, with all the application options: front, side, top, back, corner or adjacent.

The modular design of the APL 35s automatic industrial labelers gives them the versatility to respond to any application need. They work with rolls of labels of up to 300 mm (expandable to 350 mm), with an easy positioning system.

They print and place them at a rate of up to 90 boxes per minute with pneumatic applicators, and up to 180 with electric applicators.

 

Our machines are easily integrated thanks to the UBS LabMan 4.0 middlewarecompatible with any ERP, MES, WMS or DBMS system. To ensure the correct traceability of the packages, they comply with the standards dictated by GS1 International, with printing of ANSI, A and B grade barcodes on GTIN codes.

UBS solutions for pallet printing

One of the critical points in the supply chain is the end of the production line, where, once palletized, the cargo units must be identified to ensure they reach their destination.

 

The UBS pallet labeling equipment offers all possibilities: one, two or three sides, whether it be Europallets, universal pallets, half pallets, stacked pallets or variable heights.

 

They are controlled by PLC, are compatible with all OEM print engines on the market and meet GS1 standards for printing and applying pallet labels with GS1-128 barcodes.

 

Thanks to UBS LabMan, we identify pallets from different lines, manage print queues and integrate and centralize the data with the customer's ERP to conform and generate the labels of each logistics unit, with all the information necessary for its correct storage, transport and traceability.
