QuickLabel Systems: Label applicator

An applicator that pushes, rather than pulls, p-s labels from their liners has been introduced by QuickLabel Systems (West Warwick, RI). The Columbia AT-2650’s “push-off” dispensing method decreases tears in p-s label liners that often cause production jams, according to the manufacturer.

Operating at a rate of 150 labels/min, the unit is equipped with a low-label signaling mechanism and an automatic gap sensor.
