Front apply label printer/applicator

Tharo’s PA1200fa printer/applicator can print and apply labels to the leading side of a product moving down a conveyor.

The PA1200fa is currently available using the Tharo H-Series direct thermal or thermal transfer printers with print resolutions of 203 or 300 dpi. After a label is printed, it is stripped from the liner and held by suction on the applicator tamp pad. The tamp pad is mounted on a heavy-duty swing arm that extends over a conveyor and tamps the label to the product. Label size ranges from 3 in. x 1 in. to 4.5 in. x 8 in.
