With our fully electric ALcode ‘Vacuum Belt’ print and apply machine, this is rarely a problem, shown here in our archive video cruising at 76 labels/min…

This is a common request to ensure the label information is visible when the box is palletised. An operation example can be viewed HERE. #ALTech #Printapply #Labelling #Barcode
