Thermal transfer coder
4 October 2011 – Allen Coding Systems has launched its 53XL thermal transfer coder. This latest addition to the company’s cost effective, high performance 53 series features a large print area up to 53mm x 80mm, allowing users to easily print fixed and variable text, data and graphics, as well as reproduce bar codes, real time, sell by dates, batch numbers, prices and source codes.
Also capable of printing Julian data and 2D DataMatrix codes, the affordable new 53XL is ideal for food applications. It is available in intermittent motion for easy integration with a wide range of packaging equipment including vertical and horizontal form-fill-seal systems, primary labellers, thermoformers and overwrapping equipment.
The coder offers reduced maintenance and type changes, resulting in a lower cost of ownership. Together with superior versatility and accuracy, these benefits make the new coder an ideal option for upgrading to thermal technology from hot foil.
