At IMB 2006 Paxar presents three new label printers designed specifically for garment labelling: the first system for printing transfers with variable data, the newest model of the desktop high-performance printer SNAP, and the first two-side RFID printer.
At the IMB World of Textile Processing 2006 from May 10 to 13 in Cologne, Paxar presents the first system for printing transfers with variable data. The actual printing is performed by the Paxar 686HT thermal-transfer system, a special design of the well-proven Paxar 686. The second part of the installation is the all-new Paxar 7112TR applicator, which applies printed transfers to the material from the roll by applying heat.
The second new system for the garment industry shown in Cologne is Paxar’s desktop printer SNAP 600. Like its predecessor SNAP 500, successfully launched in 2005, this newest addition to the SNAP line also stands for the highest productivity in label printing at a low cost. The new model prints swing tickets and adhesive labels in addition to fabric labels. Paxar has thus created a multimedia system from a fabric printer. The print speed now reaches up to 12 inches per second. Another innovative new standard feature of the SNAP is USB and Ethernet interfaces.
The third new print system for garment labelling at the Paxar stand is the two-side printer 676 RFID. The printer, based on the reliable Paxar 676, processes swing tickets and fabric labels containing RFID chips. The printer has already proven successful in the United Kingdom at Marks & Spencer, which now has complete control of their garment inventory in all of their stores thanks to this RFID solution.
In addition to the new printer and a demonstration of its use at Marks & Spencer, Paxar will also showcase their numerous other genuine RFID products. The focus stays on the 9855 RFID ME (Multi-Protocol Europe) printer. At its debut in August 2005, this system was the first printer ever to process RFID tags compliant with the Gen2 UHF protocol as per European specifications. Since then the Paxar 9855 RFID ME has performed well in numerous industry applications. The barcode system is primarily used to process adhesive RFID labels for pallet labelling. Paxar will also present their unique SpaceTag label for packaging containing metals and liquids and other RFID labels as well as their service offerings and complete RFID system integrations.
At IMB Paxar will also present their new portable barcode label printer Paxar 9433 for the first time in Germany. The printer delivers thermal-direct labels and receipts. The print width of 76 mm sets new standards for relabelling, shelve labelling, stocktaking, and many other applications in garment retail, production and the supply chain. At IMB Paxar will also exhibit sophisticated global data management, which among other things implements error-free centralized control of label printing in production plants around the world.
