Document Printing

Our bagging line printing solutions are used in automated bagging lines to allow for documents to be inserted into the bagged product automatically. You can use either thermal or laser printers, to achieve this automated bagging line solution:

You can use either thermal or laser printers, to achieve this automated bagging line solution:

• Print documents
• Place documents on the conveyor system using our pick and place unit
• Merge the document with the relative product on the conveyor belt

Our printing solutions are used to allow for documents to be inserted into the boxed product automatically. You can use either thermal or laser printers within the automated line to print documents and then place them inside the box with our pick and place unit.

Laser printers are one of the most accessible printers, as spares are easy to source. They offer a lower upfront cost and higher quality text print. However, they can incur a large amount of maintenance if they are used for 24/7 printing operations. Barcodes often require more ink and can drive up the cost of toner. Likewise, the higher temperatures of a laser printer can cause adhesive to bleed from the label.

Thermal printers are highly reliable and optimally designed for label printing, making them flexible for printing thousands of labels at a time. This method of printing offers a high scan-ability rate and are simple to operate and easy to maintain. Unlike laser printers, a thermal solution will have a higher upfront cost as it is a more specialist piece of equipment.

Label printers are highly reliable and robust as they are solely designed for label printing. Label printers are small thermal printing units. Adhesive bleed is not an issue for thermal printers, as their operating temperatures are much lower that laser printers. Unfortunately these machines cannot be used by automation, however they are easy to maintain, simple to operate and offer very fast production time.
