Single-Pass RFID Insertion Improves Job Cycle Times

According to an article published by Packaging World, Jet Label and Packaging, a Canadian-based producer of printed tape and labels, is realizing big benefits with an RFID inlay application system from Tamarack® Products installed on their existing flexographic press.

The single-pass RFID inlay insertion allows for a quick opening of label stock ready for RFID inlay with subsequent relamination during the finishing processes, all performed with high-speed precision. Jet Label and Packaging’s new system provides verification of the RFID functionality with an RFID reader after the die-cutting process.

Tamarack’s single-pass RFID insertion equipment was chosen due to the “profiling” motion that allows for increased speeds of insertion with smooth inlay feeding. This comprehensive single-pass line configuration eliminates multiple production steps for significant improvements in efficiency and productivity. The system can be used for many industries and applications, such as industrial and pharmaceutical packaging processes.

Jet Label & Packaging, Ltd states that the faster turnaround times will immediately impact their customers by streamlining the labeling and printing process. Combining various features and capabilities streamlines their processes with the expedient and precise operation.
