Print & Apply

Use the Raptor^™ Print and Apply labeler to automate shipping labels.

One of the primary goals of any distribution center is to move products through the facility quickly and efficiently. The labeling process, even when automated, is often the limiting factor in production throughput. And because traditional systems cannot accommodate higher volumes with a wide range of package sizes, operators are forced to deploy multiple lines and/or multiple labeling systems per line to handle the demand. This results in more complicated logistics, wasted space, and additional maintenance.

This real-time example demonstrates how Raptor™ Print and Apply labeler can automate your shipping labels. Solutions include single-labeler and dual-labeler modes. The parcels do not need to be pulled from the sortation line and it requires no manual intervention. This reduces error and increases throughput. Labeling bottlenecks are eliminated. Efficiency is maximized for your warehouse or distribution center, leading to a better bottom line.
