Carton labeler SENSITIVE AP400 CW

pharmaceutical industrylinearservo-driven

Overview
The SENSITIVE AP400 Series is a family of automatic linear labellers engineered to apply self-adhesive labels to cartons at high production speeds. The range is modular and configurable for stand-alone use or full integration in packaging lines. Typical integrations include inkjet/laser printers and camera vision systems for Track & Trace/serialisation, and up to three labelling heads (two side heads for tamper-evident seals and one top vignette head).

Models in the range

• SENSITIVE AP400 CW — integrated 100% check-weighing (CW) for weight control, labelling, serialisation and triple-rejection handling.
• SENSITIVE AP400 3T — flexible configuration with up to three labelling heads (top vignette plus up to two side tamper-evident heads) for multi-head and tamper-evident applications.
• SENSITIVE AP400 C — compact, ergonomic footprint for space-constrained lines; supports up to three heads for vignette and tamper-evident labels; suitable as stand-alone or for integration.
• SENSITIVE AP400 T — dedicated tamper-evident model with two side labelling units for high-speed tamper-evident sealing in a compact layout.

Key features / highlights

• Industrial design: stainless-steel construction with easy access for cleaning and maintenance, suitable for pharmaceutical production environments.
• Up to 3 labelling heads: combinations of top vignette head and up to two side tamper-evident heads.
• High-speed labelling: model-dependent throughput up to industry-level outputs.
• Check-weighing and quality control (CW variant): 100% check-weigh integration with dedicated infeed belt and per-carton weight measurement; triple rejection for non-conforming cartons.
• Printing & serialisation: integration of inkjet/laser printers and camera vision systems for printing and verifying 2D Data Matrix and barcodes (Track & Trace compliance).
• Full servomotor drive: precise and repeatable synchronisation of label dispensing and carton transport.
• Accurate carton transfer: positive toothed-belt transport for exact positioning through working stations.
• Label handling: sliding label reel holders, automatic de-reeling and end-of-reel sensor.
• Intuitive HMI: machine monitoring, data collection and supervision functions.
• Triple rejection system: rejects cartons failing weight, labelling or printing/serialisation checks.

Additional details
The series is configurable to customer requirements (carton sizes, number/type of heads, print/check systems). It meets pharmaceutical industry requirements for product protection and serialisation while minimising footprint, notably in the compact C and T variants.
