What labels can be applied to cases and pallets?+
Common formats include product identification, case content, barcode, routing, inventory, and shipping labels. The practical limits come from the label size, the panel it must land on, the surface condition of the corrugated or wrapped load, and the required placement accuracy.
What is the difference between preprinted and print-and-apply labeling?+
A preprinted label is produced in advance and loaded onto the applicator, which suits fixed content. A print-and-apply system generates changing information at the moment of application, which suits order, shipping, and lot data that differs from case to case.
Can a system apply labels to multiple case or pallet panels?+
Multi-panel application is possible in many configurations, though it affects the applicator type, the number of stations, the load presentation, and the cycle time available. Each additional panel usually requires either additional reach or additional equipment.
What information does ATP need to recommend a system?+
Helpful details include case or pallet dimensions and weight, the label size and content, the required panels and placement, conveyor speed, how squarely loads present themselves, and any scanning, verification, or warehouse-data requirements.
