Flexible label printing and inspection of printed information for a smooth process flow. toptack GmbH offers various ready-made solutions.
For printing and monitoring the readability of individual labels with manual further processing, we offer a printing system with an integrated scanner. The label is only released for further processing if the code information can be read by the scanner.
For printing and monitoring the readability of labels that are pre-printed in large quantities for subsequent (manual or automated) processing, we offer a thermal transfer label printing system (TTR printer) with a camera for 100% monitoring of the TTR print image and an external rewinder. Both the content, position, and quality of a printed code are monitored, and the camera’s reading results can also be logged as a file. If a code print is unreadable or does not meet the specified quality, the printer stops. The “bad” label can be removed; after pressing the error acknowledgment button, printing resumes. Especially when printing barcodes and/or 2D codes, this ensures 100% readability later, right from the label printing stage.
