Thanks for scanning into our holiday case study!

We’re happy to show off the goods from our partners over at Oaktown Spice Shop

+ take you through some of our variable data solutions.

This holiday label started out as a digitally printed master or semi-variable data label. We engineer this type of label for anyone who needs to be printing variable data onto a custom label. This may include branding, static items or custom finishes. Utilizing our digital presses, our customers are able to print multiple SKU’s across the web to increase efficiencies and reduce costs.

The variable data was then laid out and managed using Seagull Scientific’s Bartender Label Software. We help our customers to lay out their information using the designer. Pro-users then move on to utilize either data entry forms or database connections quickly change their variable data.

The labels were then printed on the Zebra ZT610 Thermal Transfer Printer. This workhorse of a printer is the top of the line and excels when it comes to printing variable data information in an easy and economical fashion. We keep the Zebra ZT610 printers in stock in both 300 and 600 DPI configurations and with rewinders built into increase efficiencies. A White Wax/Resin ribbon was used, we keep these in stock to allow our customers to customize their look and stand out on the shelf.

The product labels were then applied using the Autolabe 550S, Semi-Automatic round product label applicator. This semi-automatic applicator allows users to increase their throughput and reduce touchpoints. The product rollers are adjustable; from small vials for the biotech industry, up to large jars for food manufacturing.

The lid labels were printed using the CAB Squix Thermal Transfer Printer. This 600 DPI, middle-aligned printer is perfect for printing incredibly precise variable data. This model is a perfect fit for anyone who needs to print detailed information and small scannable objects onto any size label.

The lid labels were then applied using the Autolabe 560S, Semi-Automatic Tamp down applicator. This unit utilizes a custom sized, vacuum tamp head to put labels onto lids, boxes or any flat/near flat object. The small form factor and ease of use are major selling point for this cost effective way to increase throughput and reduce touchpoint costs.
