Weber Marking Systems has introduced its new Model 5200 Corner-Wrap label printer-applicator,
which combines high-quality label printing with a specially designed label applicator that applies
a single label around the corner of a carton.
In addition to offering a selection of print engines that addresses various print speeds and
resolutions, the new Corner-Wrap system is available with optional RFID print-encode engines
that will satisfy the emerging requirements of today’s supply chain.
Standard thermal/thermal-transfer print engines produce text, bar codes and graphic images
at 203- or 300-dpi. The RFID models combine printing capabilities with the encoding and
verification of RFID inlays to meet the specifications of (Electronic Product Code) EPC Gen 1
and 2 protocols.
Engineered, manufactured and available only from Weber, the unit prints (or prints and
RFID encodes) labels in a next-out mode, automatically removes them from their liner,
and retains them by vacuum on an integrated swing arm-mounted pad. As a carton approaches,
the pad gently applies the label to its front panel, then follows around the carton’s corner and
wipes the remaining portion of the label onto its adjacent side. The system handles labels up to
102mm wide and 300mm in length, and will print and apply labels to a maximum of 15 cartons
per minute
