ID Technology Offers a Zero Downtime Label Printer Applicator System
The Model 255 is a part of the top selling line of printer applicators manufactured by ID Technology. This label printer applicator offers a viable solution to eliminate production downtime during media replenishment and routine maintenance of label printer applicators.
FORT WORTH, Texas, May 23, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- ID Technology, a ProMach product brand, offers a viable solution to eliminate production downtime during media replenishment and routine maintenance of label printer applicators.
The Model 255 Zero Downtime system consists of two Model 255 Label Printer Applicators on a sturdy mounting frame. The two labelers operate in a parent-child mode with the parent acting as the primary labeler and the child acting as the secondary labeler. To keep production running smoothly, the labeling system automatically switches over to the secondary labeler when the primary labeler is taken offline. Once the primary head is ready to be placed back into service, the labeling system seamlessly switches back to the primary labeler.
The Model 255 is a part of the top selling line of printer applicators manufactured by ID Technology. This label printer applicator is built on the Centerline-Modularity™ concept which optimizes uptime and reduces cost by minimizing the amount of necessary adjustment points in a machine and implements quick-fault diagnosis and repair. There are a wide range of application modules to accompany these applicators, as well as, a choice of leading OEM print engines.
Designed for batch labeling, Zero Downtime control is internal to the Model 255. The only hardware required is an ethernet cable to link the heads together.
To ensure there are no missed labels and no double labels when switching heads, the software tracks products through the two labelers. This can be combined with height/speed compensation on product delay settings and label inspection results, which ensures all products are correctly labeled.
There are two modes of operation. In normal mode, the primary head will try to label all packages, and the secondary head will label anything that is missed. In alternate mode, the primary head will label every other package as long as the secondary head is online; otherwise, it will try to label every product. The secondary head labels any item that is missed by the primary head.
To make label roll changes simple and safe, ID Technology's "service position" mount allows the heads to swing away from the conveyor to give complete access when loading labels or cleaning the printheads.
