Label Printers & Print-and-Apply Systems
Desktop and industrial label printers plus automatic print-and-apply for cases and pallets.
Also called barcode label printers, LPA systems, case labellers and pallet labellers.
What these machines do
From a bench-top barcode printer to a fully automatic pallet labeller, this range prints variable data on demand and — where needed — applies the label in the same motion. It is the standard route to GS1-compliant case and pallet identification.
A thermal print engine images each label by direct thermal or thermal transfer. In a print-and-apply system the liner is stripped at a peel edge and the label is held on a vacuum pad, then tamped, blown or wiped onto the pack. Servo applicators measure the approach so varying case heights are labelled without crushing.
Typical options
- Tamp, tamp-blow, wipe-on or corner-wrap applicators
- Barcode scanner with re-apply logic
- Low-label and ribbon-out beacon
- Height-adjustable stand

Process sequence
Receive
Label data arrives from ERP, WMS or the line controller.
The engine prints text, barcodes and graphics at 203–600 dpi.
Peel
The label separates from its liner and transfers to the applicator pad.
Apply
Tamp, blow or wipe-on places the label on the moving pack.
Check
A scanner reads the barcode and flags no-reads.
Common questions
