Used Print And Apply Labeling Systems in USA

12

Overview

Print and apply labeling systems (labelers) combine a printer and an applicator to automatically print barcodes, text and variable-data labels and apply them to products, packages or pallets. They range from bench-top units to high-speed inline machines for production lines, supporting various label sizes, adhesives and applicator types. These systems increase accuracy, throughput and traceability in manufacturing, logistics and packaging.

FAQ

What should I check when buying a used print-and-apply system?

Inspect the printhead condition and hours, applicator mechanics, conveyor interfaces, control electronics, and cable harnesses. Request a live demo with your labels and verify firmware/software compatibility and spare-parts availability.

How do I ensure it will integrate with my production line?

Confirm conveyor height and speed ranges, I/O signals (photo-eye, encoders, PLC), available mounting options and label orientation. Test with sample products and label formats before purchase.

How should the machine be prepared for shipping?

Secure moving parts, lock or remove applicator arms, protect the printhead and sensors, drain fluids if applicable, and crate or palletize with shock protection. Use a freight carrier experienced with automation and insure the shipment.

What regular maintenance do these systems need?

Daily cleaning of the printhead, platen and label path, inspect and clean sensors, lubricate moving joints per manual, check rollers and belts for wear, and schedule periodic printhead and service replacements.
