ALcode P Pallet labeller

The ALcode P pallet labeller prints and applies A5 format labels to two consecutive pallet sides (normally front and side, but also to three sides on request). 

Performance: up to 120 pallets/h (180 with labelling on one side only). The ergonomic external structure and control panel integrated in the safety cabinet are key features of ALcode P, which is able to apply labels:

  • to two (front + side) or
  • three sides (front + side + rear) of the pallets. The applicator can also label pallets with slightly different dimensions, shapes and stopping positions in real time.

For applying two labels (front + side) to pallets of constant dimensions, ALTECH has come up with a reliable applicator which offers a more economical solution. The application system with rotary movement of the applicator arm, and the fact it is motor driven, are real innovations. Labelling of the various sides only requires one pallet stop. A laser scanner checks that the barcodes are legible and that both labels have been correctly applied, performing a second attempt in the event of an error before generating an alarm to stop the line when necessary.

Printing Unit
ALcode P uses the SATO 8460Se printer unit, which guarantees high-quality performance even in “difficult” industrial environments.

  • Print resolution: 8, 12 or 24 dots/mm.
  • Print speed: 400 mm/s
  • Max. label width: 104 – 152 mm.

The modular assembly also allows the use of alternative printing units (Zebra, Datamax, Valentin etc.).

Realtime print and apply
ALcode print & apply systems for self-adhesive labels can interface with a computer and apply labels immediately after printing, in any position, on both stationary and moving products (also at high speeds).
