Alpha Entry
Basic version of the Alpha Compact designed to be the most affordable it can possible be, maintaining the reliability, precision and quality that are characteristic of the Alpha labelers.
Unbeatable Price
This system was made with the intent of being the most affordable as possible. Due to that reason, 3 units are required as the minimum order quantity. Thanks to that, the unit price for this industrial system is lower than many desktop thermal-transfer label printers.
Different Applications
Apply labels on the lids and the top of the products or on the side of boxes or flat-sided bottles. And with special conveyors, you can also put the labeler below, on a nose-up orientation, to apply labels on the bottom of the products or even to label bottles, flasks, cans and other cylindric or conical products, by wrapping the label around them. With a single stand, you can adjust the system to apply on any position and the labeler is available in left- or right-hand versions (LH/RH).
Excellent Precision
Apply your labels in the right spot with millimeter precision. No more misplaced, crooked or wrinkled labels.
Easy to Use
This system is very easy to set-up. You just need to calibrate the labeler once to the label size being used. After tuning the positioning, just let it do the job. The system detects missing labels on the roll and advances automatically to the next one, so no product will pass unlabeled. You can perform the calibration and adjust the speed easily using the digital or analog HMI. The digital version allows advanced configurations and notifications, but with the analog version you can do very quick and precise adjustments.
Few Stops
With an unwinder that allows big label rolls and a rewinder for the label liner that works in 1:1, that is, with capacity to rewind the complete roll, you will have to make few stops to do label roll replacements.
Industrial Motor
The labeler is moved by a powerful stepper motor that allows precise feeding speeds, eliminating wrinkles during the application.
Label Counter
When using the digital HMI, you will have a label counter so that you know how many application cycles were performed. The counter has a capacity for 10 000 applications and then starts over automatically. You can reset the counter at any moment or you can use a countdown feature by setting the counter to a value greater than zero. In that case, the labeler will automatically stop the labeling process when the counter reaches zero.
Say Goodbye to Compressed Air
The label applicator uses the popular Wipe-On method that besides allowing the application of labels in many positions and without stopping the production line, it also does all that without needing compressed-air. This means greater cost reductions and less maintenance.
High Quality Sturdy System
These labelers are very robust and reliable, with a lifespan that goes over 15 years. Built exclusively with quality materials, you will not find a single speck of rust and, besides the occasional cleaning of possible label adhesive build-up, they do not require neither lubrication or maintenance.
Safe and Certified Systems
These systems have CE certification and follow all European safety norms and do not require additional protections or safeguards, given the fact that they do not exert forces over 50N and cannot cause injuries.
Quiet and Energy Efficient
A system that applies labels like a machine-gun must consume a lot of power and be very loud... Or not! This system consumes as much power as a computer and without fans it is relatively quiet, keeping the noise emission below 70dB(A).
Easy Integration
The system can receive remote signals to trigger the application. The input signals work in active and passive modes, that is, the 24V can be sent by the PLC or supplied by the labeler itself. Like this, only a contact needs to be switched. As for the output signals, the labeler informs if it is in normal or in error conditions, if the label roll is near the end and can also send a synchronization signal that can be configured to be active during or after the application cycle, in the last scenario, allowing a definition of a delay and duration in which the signal will be active.
Approved by System Integrators
With the Weber® policy for Global Export, the system integrator companies can export our labeling systems as part of a bigger system and the final user gets all the technical support in the destination country, performed by the local distributor of that said country, all completely transparent and without additional costs. All that a system integrator must do is mention that the system is for resale and when the destination country is known, inform us about it so that we can proceed with the transfer of responsibility of the system to the local distributor.
