Special Features & Options

The Model 5300 air-blow system includes a number of noteworthy features that add to the operational versatility of this printer-applicator.

5300 label printer applicator features • Air-blow application: This method of air-assisted, fixed-distance label placement can be used with standard applications. A printed label is fed into place and held by vacuum, then it is blown onto a product or package to a placement accuracy of ±0.03″.

• Browser-based monitoring: The status of all operational functions and configurations can be monitored by logging on to a web page that is unique to each Model 5300 unit.

• Numerous I/O’s: The system can be interfaced with many types of external devices.

• One-to-one media consumption: Special label unwind and rewind dimensions are matched to the system’s ribbon supply to ensure they are consumed at the same rate, reducing downtime and eliminating partial changeovers.

• Print job storage: Multiple label printing formats can be stored in the system’s memory, making it easier for an operator to select a job directly from the applicator instead of downloading a computer file.

The Model 5300 air-blow system boasts numerous additional features including an upgradeable microprocessor controller, various inputs/outputs, plus durable construction that will withstand harsh industrial environments.

There are also several optional enhancements that can increase the system’s functionality. A product height sensor, for example, enables the printer-applicator to label items of varying heights delivered by the same conveyor.

Other options include a 15-foot umbilical connection that enables the remote location of the unit’s controller; an adjustable stand for optimum system orientation; label-on-pad and product-presence sensors; plus beacon light alerts to signal the status of label and ribbon supplies.
