Automatic label applicator

22 February 2012 Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services

Brady’s Auto-Apply system simplifies wire, cable and component marking, including circuit boards, and provides complete automatic labelling and identification that improves productivity by combining the print and apply process into one unit.

The label applicator provides accurate real-time labelling and the in-line verification removes errors. Brady has developed a range of labels specifically for this automatic process that holds advantages of no cutting into the liner, no adhesive bleeding and no label curling. The labels are able to withstand high temperatures and chemicals to maintain the integrity of the data on the labels. The correct adhesives ensure permanent sticking even in the harshest environments.

The system ensures 100% traceability with batch and in-line identification – particularly useful for companies who prefer to label their products in batches prior to main assembly. Once labelled, the product or component can be taken to the main production process for full assembly. The system also allows for easy tracking of defective parts, improves manufacturing cycles, streamlines inspection processes and provides consistent quality.
