Demo Machine #12: High-Speed Label Converting – Crusader Converter with 400W Edge Laser
The label industry demands efficiency and flexibility in producing rolls of labels
Labels must be cut with precision and adapted to various product requirements without excessive downtime or costly tooling changes.
Challenge
Conventional label converting relies on physical die tools, which can lead to frequent changeovers, lost production time, and higher costs.
In addition, the ability to ensure alignment between the printed label design and die cut shape can be challenging, leading to misalignment and waste.
Solution
The Crusader® Converter with a 400-watt Edge® Laser provides on-the-fly laser cutting, which eliminates costly die changes and reduces downtime.
Features:
- Barcode scanning reads incoming label designs and automatically adjusts laser cut patterns in real time, ensuring perfect registration and precise cutting
- Variable data printing synchronizes with the cutting process,
allowing seamless transitions between different label designs on a
single roll
By removing die-change delays and enabling continuous production, this system maximizes speed, accuracy, and efficiency – making it ideal for short-run, high-mix label production.
