Accraply Announces Modular Upgrade For Trine Roll-Fed Labelers
- Published: February 18, 2021
Accraply, a worldwide leader in the design and manufacture of label application systems, has introduced the Trine Modular Labeling Station, an upgrade for existing Trine roll-fed labelers that enables significant process improvements with minimal line disruption.
Designed to integrate quickly and seamlessly with existing Trine labelers, this upgrade was engineered to improve throughput, simplify changeovers and operation, reduce maintenance costs and improve label appearance.
The Trine Modular Labeling Station can reportedly be retrofitted to an existing Trine labeling system or be used with a new Trine system. This solution was designed to satisfy the evolving requirements of Accraply’s Trine customer base.
To mitigate costs and line disruption, this upgrade leverages the customer’s existing product handling system and existing Trine change parts. It can be installed in as few as three days, bringing the latest roll-fed labeling technology to the customer’s operations quickly while minimizing downtime.
The labeling station includes Accraply’s SmartLink HMI, a next-generation controls platform with efficiency reporting, preventative maintenance alerts, self-diagnosing software, video tutorials and onboard parts ordering. This HMI simplifies operation and increases throughput. It also decreases setup time by eliminating variables and opportunities for operator error.
In addition, the Trine Modular Labeling Station reportedly includes improvements to maintenance, safety and waste reduction. The large diameter glue roll eliminates glue slinging and reduces vacuum drum cleaning time by 50 percent. The glue roller and glue scraper systems are safe, easy to keep clean and provide simple setup.
The self-timing, servo-driven system includes fewer moving components and wear parts than previous Trine labelers, reducing the need for replacement parts and operator adjustment.
Accraply is one of several Barry-Wehmiller companies represented in BW Packaging Systems, which brings together the collective packaging capabilities of Accraply, BW Flexible Systems, BW Integrated Systems, Pneumatic Scale Angelus and Synerlink.
