That encoded information instantly is verified by the system, which then applies the smart label to the top or side of a carton or pallet load as it moves by on a conveyor line. Labels are applied using the non-contact, tamp-blow method, which gently blows the label onto the surface from 0.25" and is accurate to within 0.06".
The Model 5300 rfid printer-applicators also provides XML-enabled printing to permit direct smart label printing and encoding from leading ERP applications.
Pre-Apply Reject
If a tag is not verifiable, the system's unique swing plate automatically is deployed to intercept the smart label prior to application. This method does not alter print engine operation, media handling or dispensing, yet collects and counts the rejected labels for subsequent disposition.
The print engines encode EPC Gen 2 protocols. And because its firmware is upgradeable to support new protocols, users are assured that they can seamlessly upgrade to future RFID protocols as needed.
In addition, Weber is offering special retrofit kits that will enable present users of Model 5300 rfid printer-applicators to upgrade their units to meet the requirements of smart labeling without completely replacing existing systems.
The Model 5300 rfid printer-applicators is constructed to withstand harsh industrial environments. Vital electronic components are safely housed inside the applicator's corrosion-resistant, stainless steel casement.
Labels are formatted using Weber's proprietary Legitronic ® Labeling Software, a package that combines label design, editing and printing with RFID encoding to create great-looking, readable smart labels.
Pressure-sensitive smart labels embedded with EPC Gen 2 inlays are available from Weber. These labels also are ideal for high-quality thermal/thermal-transfer imprinting. Weber supplies a variety of compatible thermal-transfer ribbons, as well.
