Italian production-labeling company integrates tsc printers with its pk-50 print-and-apply solution

Application: Print-and-apply labeling for round vases

Product: Pk-50 print-and-apply applicator/ TTP-2410M Series printer

Markets: Food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries

Background: The Italian company Packin Srl develops fully automated and semi-automated print-and-apply solutions for customers in the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries. The company has used TSC printers for and with its Pk-50 applicator for the past four years, citing the technically superior performance of the TSC brand for print-and-apply applications.

Mission: Packin Srl provides its customers with a high-performance labeling and application solution for glasses, bottles, ampoules and other round glassware.

Solution: Packin Srl integrated its Pk-50 industrial labeling machine, equipped with a vase-roll ROTO 4-inch applicator, with TSC’s durable, high-performance TTP-2410M Series industrial printer. The ROTO applicator features a simple-to-lower sponge-roller handle, which enables the PK-50, in a single cycle, to print and apply up to 1, 000 self-adhesive labels (white, transparent or pre-printed labels) per hour to cylindrical glass containers ranging in diameter from 10 mm to 100 mm. Bolstering the Pk-50’s performance is the TTP-2410M , which operates at print speed ups to 12 ips – the fastest throughput of any printer in its class.
With the Pk-50’s "small vase" option, users can label containers as small as 30 to 40 ml. The Pk-50 applicator supports multiple label formats and print speeds, while offering a variety of print resolutions – 100 dpi, 200 dpi, 300 dpi or 600 dpi.

Benefits:

• The operational simplicity, flexibility and build quality of the Pk-50 makes it is easy to install in small and medium-size enterprises.
• The Pk-50 enhances the professional image of treated products through improved product labeling.
• The high-speed Pk-50 prevents production slowdowns in high-volume environments in which large numbers of glassware items need to be labeled quickly.
• The Pk-50 can also be integrated with TSC’s economy-model TTP-246M Plus and TTP-344M Plus printers, which are ideal for small companies and manufacturers who require a high-performance print-and-apply solution, but want to quickly amortize their equipment costs.

TTP-2410M Series Features: The ease with which the TTP-2410M Series can be integrated into existing IT-systems is one of its major selling points. The TTP-2410M Series supports a wide range of communication interfaces, including RS-232C, Centronics, USB 2.0 and PS/2 keyboard connectivity, and can connect the Pk-50 to any LAN via its Ethernet port.

The TTP-2410M boasts a print speed up to 12 ips – the fastest in the TSC product lineup – and the fastest throughput of any printer in its class. With its combination of speed and durability, the TTP-2410M is ideal for mission-critical printing applications – either on-demand or batch.

TTP-2410M standard features include 32 MB SDRAM, 8 MB Flash memory and an SD memory-card slot for inexpensively adding up to 4 GB of additional Flash storage. The TTP-2410M can process labels up to 104 mm wide and supports up to a 600-meter-long ribbon.

With a resolution of 203 dpi, the TTP-2410M Series can print high-quality standard barcodes, two-dimensional barcodes (e.g. PDF- 417), and DataMatrix and QR Codes. The printer also is available in a 300-dpi model ( TTP-346M ), which operates at speeds up to 8 ips. Also available as a factory option is a 600-dpi model ( TTP-644M ) which operates at speeds up to 4 ips. Both the TTP-346M and TTP-644M offer 32 MB SDRAM, 8 MB Flash memory and an SD card slot for expanded memory.

The TTP-2410M is packaged with TSC’s powerful TSPL-EZ™ firmware, which supports three printer languages: TSC printer language, TPLE (Translation Printer Language Eltron®), and TPLZ (Translation Printer Language Zebra®). TSPL-EZ™ features internal scalable True Type fonts, along with a BASIC interpreter with file manager for creating powerful printer-interface applications with multiple host types.
