LESS DOWNTIME – MORE SHOWTIME
Find out how to boost your line‘s productivity using the NOVEXX Solutions XLS 2xx Labeling Systems in tandem mode while reducing the risk of production downtime.
THE CHALLENGE
In manufacturing, maximum output is key. Companies are continually looking for ways to keep up with the demands of our consumer led world and they do this by investing in high performance production lines. Nothing strikes more fear into the life of a Production Manager than the sight of flashing red lights and the sound of machine alarms on a production floor. Unplanned downtime on a production line is a costly and frustrating business. It can result in unproductive employees, missed customer deadlines, overtime for technicians as well as incurring the cost of shipping in urgent parts, all of which can have a damaging effect
on a company’s reputation.
THE SOLUTION
Here is where we can offer peace of mind. NOVEXX Solutions XLS 2xx Labeling Systems can be operated in tandem mode, which means two labelers are arranged behind one another. Only one of the labelers is
in operation at a time. The other remains in standby, ready to leap into action if and when required. If the active labeler reports the end of the label roll or a malfunction occurs, it shuts down. The other labeler
immediately takes over the task of labeling. During the automatic switch-over from one machine to the other, the distance between the two machines and their arrangement are taken into consideration. This way, no product remains unlabeled. The operator now has time to either reload with new label material or to eliminate minor malfunctions.
