Automatic Labeling Systems
Today's consumers expect fulfillment faster than ever, which means modern manufacturing and distribution businesses have a greater need to speed up their operations. One area where automated improvement can make a significant impact is in product identification, routing and labeling. Adding advanced tools to routine inbound and outbound material-handling tasks can help your facility harness technology for optimized performance.
What Is an Automatic Labeling Warehouse System?
An automatic warehouse labeling system computerizes goods recognition, sorting and coding. This technology integrates with components like conveyor systems to print and affix labels to products, pallets, totes and more. Before printing and applying the codes, the machine scans items as they come down the conveyor. Then the system automatically routes them to the correct destination for further processing.
Benefits of Print-and-Apply Label Systems
Outfitting your facility with automated labeling systems delivers many advantages, including:
- Higher throughput: This equipment enables faster identification, sorting and labeling for better efficiency. Fewer manual touches and consistent machine speeds translate directly into production boosts.
- Increased accuracy: Automated systems reduce the need for manual handling. The result is more accurate sorting and shipping with less potential for human error.
- More value: These machines can function as stand-alone solutions for reducing labor costs or as part of a broader automation initiative. They're compatible with different container types and sizes for a better return on investment.
- Increased versatility: Print-and-apply systems are also ideal for multiple label sizes and styles. Options include unique, spray-on and printed bar codes.
- Space savings: This equipment creates and applies various label styles in one machine. You can use less floor space while accomplishing tasks with precision and quality.
Common Use Cases for Automated Label Printers and Systems
Automated label printers and systems are ideal for numerous industries and applications, especially high-SKU-count storage and shipping environments. Common use cases include:
- Large-scale e-commerce
- High-volume manufacturers
- Omnichannel distribution centers
- Third-party logistics providers
