Weber Packaging Solutions has added the Model LA-2050, a robust system that offers maximum performance in a small compact footprint using an efficient low-energy tamp-blow applicator for contactless labeling. Labeling accuracy is ±0.05 in.

The LA-2050 is suitable for small e-commerce fulfillment companies or anyone needing to automate their labeling for the first time. Featuring a variable stroke tamp and sensor, the LA-2050 provides automatic labeling for products of different heights. Able to apply up to 25 labels/min, the system can be used as part of an automated production line or as a standalone unit in a jig fixture for fast, accurate labeling.

The LA-2050 uses a Sato CLNX thermal-transfer label printer (203, 300 or 600 dpi) that can print thermal-transfer or direct thermal labels as small as 1.1 in. x 1.5 in. up to 4.7 in. x 6.2 in. (ideal for 4 in. x 6 in. shipping labels). The printer uses an 8-in. label roll and up to 1968-ft ribbons for longer continuous operation between changes.

The printer works with many programming languages such as ZPL, DPL, IPL, and TPL, without having to change any settings.

Print jobs are sent to the Sato printer, which then feeds the printed labels to the LA-2050 for application. The system is easy to operate and can quickly integrate into a current production line. Data interfaces include USB, LAN, Bluetooth and IEEE1284.
