Busy aisle at Labelexpo Europe 2011
Adents International

A new track and trace system scans a product’s uniquely assigned 2D code and automatically distributes information to authorized users, including associated case and pallet information. The technology is based on a secure 2D code (data matrix, QR code) associated with the company’s software package. Scanned information can be read anywhere in the world and in real time. Each code is associated with an individual, unique URL code, making it possible to adapt and change web data instantaneously and in real time.

Bielomatik

Shows the latest SmartTwo T-165 machine with the capability to encode continuous smart labels, tickets or hang-tags from reels. Encoding units are available for high frequency (13.56 MHz), and also for ultra-high frequency (902-928 MHz) products. The machine can be set for stop-and-go or continuous operation. Serialized data can be added to front and/or back side of the product via a high-resolution digital printing system combined with optional drying and camera data verification. Finishing options include rewind, shingled or fan-folder. HF or UHF products can be encoded at up to 30m/min, depending on product size.
