SubscribeMeeting EAN pallet labelling and EPC Global standards, the Cobalt Pallet Labellers provide a choice of label position to suit pallet orientation.
Variable height adjustment enables the labeller to be raised or lowered to match pallet conveyor heights. Using a single bi-axial head, it is possible to apply two labels on adjacent sides, either front and side or side and rear, without moving the pallet. Operational speeds are optimised as the labeller prints and encodes as it repositions to apply the second label. Secure application onto uneven surfaces is achieved by pressure from the floating head, complemented by an air blast for firm adhesion to all corners of the label. Achieving up to 120 stationary or 180 moving pallets per hour, a single labeller can handle pallet feed from multiple palletizers.
SECURE IDENTIFICATION
Extensive self checking routines include:
Precision positioning, barcode and EPC code verication before application, label applied and barcode verified after application and label stock monitoring - all of which guarantees secure identication of all pallets.
All low quality or unreadable labels are discarded onto a reject pad and never applied to the pallet. The system recovers by reprinting or rewriting encoded data. A succession of poor labels triggers an alarm for operator attendance. Further checks are made after application to ensure that the label has been successfully applied, and still meets the required read quality. No pallet is able to progress past the labelling position without approved quality labels.
Linear, bi-axial and traversing movements can be individually tested from the touch panel

INDEPENDENT OPERATION
The COBALT PALLET Labellers are designed to perform unattended in challenging environments. Encased in a robust enclosure, the system can withstand severe operating temperatures and environmental conditions, sensitive parts being well protected from possible impact.
Open connectivity options including wireless ethernet allow operation and status monitoring to be conducted remotely. Intrinsically part of the Track and Trace process, the labeller provides real-time data to WMS, SAP and ERP installations.
Where speed and economy are most important the Cobalt Standard Pallet labeller can identify the front and side of moving pallets at up to 180 per hour.
