Dual-Panel Pallet Labeler
Kolinahr Systems's SA2200-RF dual-panel RFID pallet labeler is designed to read, write, print, and apply RFID-enabled labels to the front and/or side of a pallet load. The system utilizes a Zebra RFID-enabled printer to read, write, and verify EPC-compliant RFID tags embedded in the labels. A 3" x 3" thick rotating arm applies the label to the leading edge of the pallet load. The arm then returns for a duplicate label that is applied to the side of the load. For dual-sided applications, EPC tags can be embedded under every other label. If the embedded RFID tag cannot be read/written/verified, a fault status will be displayed. A label removal system on the SA2200-RF will dispose of the invalid EPC tag after it is dispensed onto the tamp pad, prior to application. This process ensures that a valid RFID tag will always be placed on the pallet load, says the company.

Applicator Encodes, Verifies 30 Cases per Minute
NJM/CLI has made available its RFID Integrated Model 400 System, which enables packagers to quickly and easily meet supplier demand for RFID tagged cases and cartons, says the company. The system reliably encodes, verifies, and applies RFID tags at speeds up to 30 cases/cartons per minute. NJM/CLI integrates a Zebra RFID printer and verification scanner with the Model 400 Print & Apply Labeler, modified to automatically remove bad tags/labels prior to label application on products. The system includes an optional ancillary RFID antenna and reader, which maximizes versatility by allowing it to write to tags outside the primary RFID printer, and to enable special tag placement on the labels as needed for custom applications, says the company, adding that a downstream reader/verifier confirms that the applied tags are correct. The standard system performs vertical and horizontal labeling. Optional tooling is available for side, corner-wrap, and two-panel labeling.

Printer/Applicator for Automated Labeling
The Diagraph PA/5000LT printer/applicator takes automated labeling to a new level, says the manufacturer. Built of aluminum and steel, it sits on a heavy-duty T-base stand, and has locking casters that allow for easy portability and in-place stability. A remote handheld interface provides access to all system menus. Standard discrete I/O permits easy interconnection to PLCs, conveyors, or similar devices. Offering network compatibility, multiple PA/5000LT units can be linked together to allow remote viewing of operating settings and modification of settings. Jobs across several machines can be accessed and recalled at once through a single remote handheld. To store label formats, the PA/5000LT incorporates the interface and memory for recall with a job, or as necessary. Through the same serial port used for sending formats to the print engine, the PA/5000LT can capture label format information. Diagnostic functions of the PA/5000LT provide for easy verification of sensors and actuators, says the company. Customers have a choice of print engines from Datamax, Sato, and Zebra. Print speeds are up to 12" per second, with application speeds up to 110 products per minute, depending on label size and application. The PA/5000LT offers a maximum print width of 6.6" and media width from 2.0" to 7.2". Label roll capacity is 13" O.D. The PA/5000LT accommodates a wide range of papers, films, and synthetic materials.
