Alpha TIJ

Label dispenser Alpha with multifunctional inkjet-printer

The Alpha TIJ comprises a label dispenser of the proven and renowned Alpha series and a thermal inkjet printer. With the Alpha TIJ variable information is printed without physical contact onto possibly pre-printed labels immediately before dispensing. No labels are wasted/lost when print data changes and previous data are automatically excluded when the product changes. Using the cartridge ink technology, labels with up to 50 mm high symbols and a resolution of up to 600 dpi can be printed neatly and quickly. Data transmission to the print heads is 1:1. Real time printing without batch processing is also possible. A wide variety of quick drying inks and colors is available for a wide range of applications on diverse surfaces.

Alpha Laser

Cost-effective, reliable marking with laser dispenser Alpha Laser

The laser labelling solution comprises an Alpha label dispenser and a Solaris CO2 laser. The Alpha-Laser writes variable additional information such as best before dates, graphics or logistics data on pre-printed labelsimmediately before application.

The compact Alpha-Laser labels reliably and cost-effectively especially where large batches are processed and must be traced. This technology is ideally suited especially for harsh environments since the laser, as the printing unit, is considered virtually non-wearing compared to conventional printing methods.

The laser has a significantly longer service life by comparison and guarantees significantly higher availability, with no consumables or pressure bars. It ensures uninterrupted production. The laser writes all information – also batch and lot numbers – on any part of the labels, with or across the direction of travel. The laser can write in black on laser-activable labels with a special finishing coat. No decomposition products are created and the labels are not damaged. The print is smear- and scratch-resistant.

The advantages of the Alpha-Laser in a nutshell

Any type of label made of paper or foil or foil-laminated material can be used
Printing on a coating that can be activated exclusively by laser
Printing of information in pre-printed color fields
Writes codes and graphics
No consumables
Low maintenance
Smear- and scratch-proof marking
High marking speeds
High process reliability and low running costs.

Tamper Evident

A core requirement of the European Directive 2011/62/EU that will come into force by 2016 is to equip the outer packaging of medicals with a tamper evident feature. Which should ensure the customer that he is the first opening the package.

Demands form different markets worldwide are showing the need for combined and integrated solutions to cover latest developments in industrial production and supply chain.

Counterfeiting is the illegal production and sale of goods, including packaging, bearing without authorization a trademark which is identical to a validly registered trademark or which cannot be distinguished from such a trademark.

Weber’s unique scope of supply are turn-key soloutions including, but not limited to:

Labeling systems; in-line and off-line
Inkjet printers / Coding Systems
BarCode reading / verfication
Database software labels (verification and security labels)
Full Service and installation supplies

A Track and Trace system is a mass serialization solution for pharmaceutical, cosmetics and food companies that prints a unique identifying code onto each product. By this, each individual product could be tracked throughout the whole supply chain, from production to the end consumer, and helps manufacturers significantly reduce counterfeiting by ensuring products can be easily identified.

Weber Marking Systems combines Tamper evident (first opening verification) PLUS traceability or serialisation PLUS anti counterfeiting protection.

Alpha Quadro

The right label at the right time

The new Alpha Quadro label dispenser offers you totally new possibilities in the field of labelling products and packaging. This system’s special feature: several different label rolls can be processed simultaneously. The Alpha Quadro guarantees high labeling performance and application accuracy, combined with high processing speeds at production and conveyor lines.

An innovation addressing the growing market demands for labelling of a multitude of different products. Diverse product shapes can be labeled in the most confined of spaces – from rectangular to round. Up to four different labels may be kept ready for automatic application to passing products, in arbitrary sequence and combination. The special belt applicator enables compensation for tolerances in product position. Integrated detection of the height of different products allow labels always to be applied at a specific position relative to the size of the product. The Alpha Quadro can also be fitted with well-known standard applicators such as blow or tamp-blow units.

Alpha HSM

Extremely flexible within limited space

More power, higher speeds, easier operation: Our label dispenser Alpha HSM offers more than just excellent performance. Almost like a chameleon, it perfectly adapts to its environments thanks to its unique modular design. It applies pre-printed labels to products and packaging in high speed. High performance servomotors offer very high accuracy in automatic labeling.

All main components and functions can be customized to meet your specific demands. Thanks to their own drives and special adapters, for example, the label feeders and unwinders can be mounted location-idenpendently, while the basic module with the dispensing unit is integrated directly into the production line. In addition, different basic modules and dispensing tongues can also be selected. This creates maximum flexibility in the integration in confined spaces. Plus: With its special housing, Alpha HSM achieves IP65 protection and does not need to be covered when used in damp and dusty environments or during wet-cleaning.

Depending on the system, labels with widths of 10 mm to 320 mm can be dispensed and label rolls with a diameter of up to 500 mm can be processed. Labeling speeds of up to 150 meters per minute or clocking frequencies of up to 2,000 labels per minute can be achieved.

Both the input and the storage of different labeling parameters as well as functions and the calibration of the sensors can be stored in the Alpha HSM. The system can be controlled with the aid of various PLC modules. A web-based control is also possible.

Protected against dust and moisture (protection rating IP65)
About 65 modules allow individual adjustment of all functions
Feeders and rewinders can be mounted anywhere thanks to their own drives
Labeling speeds of up to 2,000 labels or 150 meters per minute
Short set-up times for product changes
All adjustable parts of the device are highlighted in color
Can store up to 10,000 parameter settings
Automatic parameter settings via Datamatrix codes
Suitable for connection to customer-specific PLCs
Web-based control possible via Wi-Fi
Individual service portal with support documents

Alpha Compact

Alpha-Labelers work quick, reliable and without any difficulty. The system is characterized by a simple handling and an enhanced scope of operation.

The operation concept is consistently modular designed. Changing the label size via calibration function is as easy within a few seconds possible as changing the label roll. Furthermore calibrated sets of parameter can be memorized and remain also in case of an interface change. Generally there are three different types of interface. A simple and uncomplicated operation via simply designed panel. Enhanced operation field and full parameter access via display. Professional mode without display or panel controlled via USB and parametered. The cabinet indicates consciously similarities to Alpha V40. This ensures a simple exchangeability.
