PACKAGING & LABELLING MACHINERY FOCUS PRINT AND APPLY PALLET RFID LABELLING SYSTEM


SATO has worked in partnership with automatic warehouse systems specialist Orbital to develop a print & apply (P&A) pallet labelling system which offers improved options for anyone needing to track palletised goods using RFID technology. The new Orbital printing station is a standard automated P&A solution that prints to a 6" RFID label width, offering a greater print area for batch details and other unique identification information. At its heart lies SATO’s advanced NX Series intelligent print technology. The NX Series represents SATO’s next generation of thermal printers with advanced support for barcode symbologies, character sets and RFID encoding. Its compact size and multiple interface options made the CL6NX printer particularly suitable for Orbital’s needs, making the device easy to integrate within an X-Y labelling robot. Its robust specification includes a diecast aluminium frame, print and ribbon mechanism to provide stability, durability and ensure print quality in tough industrial environments. Offering high-speed processing performance, the CL6NX enables the Orbital printing station to process up to 1300 pallets per day.

result of a strong partnership between Orbital and SATO which is based on collaboration and shared values,” says Laurent Lassus from SATO. “These include developing technology that is simple and intuitive to use while offering excellent reliability and adaptability to the customer’s requirements.” On behalf of Orbital Francisco Javier Lopez Berenjeno, director general Grupo Josefrans comments: “Since Orbital was founded SATO has not only been one of our top collaborators but one of our key drivers for growth. The human and technical support they provide together with the quality of their products make it possible for Orbital to offer our clients equipment with technological innovations which is extremely reliable and in some cases unique in this market."
