Caljan SLAM Line Flying Applicator

Summary of Innovation

Caljan SLAM Line Flying Applicator monitors all packages as they move along the conveyor. The orientation and position of each package - placed randomly on the belt - is registered. As the package approaches the labeler, the Flying Applicator moves into position above. It tracks the package momentarily, turning the applicator head to align with the package. Picking out the exact spot that matches the requirement, over an existing label or in a clear space, Flying Applicator descends to precise X, Y, Z coordinates and swiftly applies the label. The label can even be oriented, so that it faces the picker, making the pick process more efficient.

Innovation Statement

Caljan SLAM Line Flying Applicator, the newest labeling system in our range, prints and applies up to 2,400 labels per hour at exact X, Y, Z coordinates — even when packages are positioned randomly on the conveyor belt.

Applicability

Labeling bags as well as packages, no time is wasted on alignment as individual labels are accurately placed on 2,400 items hourly.
