Automatic Print & Apply system for real-time printing and linear application of labels on products, cases, and packaging.
PTS Linear combines the EIDOS PTS printing platform with a linear applicator, enabling real-time data printing and automatic label application directly onto products or packaging surfaces. The system is available in Short, Long, Extra-Long, and Ultra-Long versions to accommodate different application distances and production line requirements.
Versatile and Configurable Linear Label Application
The Linear applicator transfers the label printed by the PTS system to the product through a linear movement, providing a flexible solution for automatic labeling of products and packages of various sizes.
Different configurations are available to match the specific characteristics of the production line:
- Linear Short
- Linear Long
- Linear Extra-Long
- Linear Ultra-Long
The PTS range also includes the Linear Wrap configuration for specific application requirements.
Real-Time Printing and Application
PTS prints variable data, barcodes, and traceability information directly onto the label and supports interchangeable 4″, 5″, and 6″ printheads, which can be quickly replaced thanks to the QuickHead X-Changer system. The maximum printable width is 160 mm, while the standard maximum label length reaches 210 mm.
Depending on the substrate and printhead used, printing speeds can reach 1,000 mm/s on plastic materials, 600 mm/s on coated paper, and 500 mm/s on vellum paper.
