PrintSafe Feeder
The latest KBA-Metronic Offline Coding System - for feeding cards, cartons and sleeves up to 420mm wide
The udaFORMAXX is a compact, stand alone system which integrates with all the KBAMetronic coding devices, for the offline coding of sleeves, cartons, watch strap bands and bags up to a size of max. 450 x 500 mm.
The udaFORMAXX was designed for integration with a wide range of print systems including ink jet, thermal transfer,
laser, hot stamp. It is used in conjunction with these technologies to produce BBE and use-by dates, prices and contents
information, bar codes and logos, sequential numbering and other variable data. This makes the udaFORMAXX as
flexible as no other system.
The udaFORMAXX also has applications as a counting system for drug leaflets and booklets for pharmaceutical industry. It is
also well suited to addressing and personalization for commercial small format print applications. Easy handling, high reliability and the very attractive cost/performance ratio make the udaFORMAXX to an all-round coding system.
Sleeves are transferred from stack to stack and controlled by a photocell. This separates sleeves as they are fed and is a system developed inhouse at KBA-Metronic which allows refilling of the unprinted sleeve stack even during the printing process.
Thanks to the integrated control system, the cost effective combination with our hot stamp hpdSYSTEM vario is permitted.
-
with laser: for forgery-proof and permanent printing. Highly economical as no consumables are required. Easy operation via a handheld terminal or PC.
- with hot stamp: for simple, yet effective and cost efficient coding. Ideal for printing BBE, use-by codes, batch numbers, prices etc. Max. print area 30 x 50 mm. Available for integration: hpdSYSTEM vario.
- with ink jet: the alphaJET evo produces excellent results when printing logos, text, 1D- and 2D- barcodes onto a wide range of substrates at high speed.
- with thermal transfer: high resolution coding, for bar codes, text, graphics and dense text/graphics areas e.g. ingredients panels. For individual layout and selection of graphics.
- with label applicators: for spot labelling applications onto sleeves, cartons, watch strap bands. Special offers 3 for 2, BOGOF (Buy One Get One Free) etc., even with fixed position, max. width 450 mm.
