Automatic Print and Apply Intouch

Print and apply machine applies the last printed label on products at a standstill

Intouch is an automatic print and apply system applying the last printed label on boxes and products at a standstill.

Intouch prints any type of code, images and variable data coming from the packaging line and applies the last printed label.

This print and apply model is the most performant of our range thanks to its advanced electronics and application pad. The control panel provides easy interfacing of the machine with different signals coming from packaging lines, while the pad with a 350 mm stroke automatically detects the distance of the application surface and adapts accordingly.

The core of the Intouch print and apply system is an industrial thermal transfer printer with dual processor electronics and equipped with an air jet application pad applying the label on products at a standstill.

Intouch is available in 2 versions: Intouch 4 has a 4″ width (based on a thermal transfer printer model Spider Plus) and Intouch 6 with a 6″ width ( based on a thermal transfer printer model Jumbo Pus).

This print and apply machines works with reels of thermal transfer ribbon 600 m long, in order to ensure high autonomy in working cycles.

Resolution ≤ 8, 12 (only for Intouch 4) dots/mm
Printing speed 250 mm/s
Label width 104 mm (Intouch 4) and 160 mm (Intouch 6)
