Introduced at the Meat ShowHow in Denmark, the waterproof OCM9500 box/crate labeller is suitable for automatic weighing and labeling applications in both wet and dry production environments. The unit handles crates and boxes up to 40kg in weight, providing consistent weighing accuracy with automatic zero tracking.

Speed is subject to box size and label print requirement, i.e. eurocrates of 600mm x 400mm size can be automatically weighed and labelled at speeds up to 35 units per minute.

Labels can be applied to the front and side of the box by a combination of up to 8 label applicators, including print of barcodes, best before dates and product as well as warehouse tracking information. Long print head life contributes greatly to its low running costs.
