FOX IV Launches New Entry-Level Label Print and Apply

FOX IV Technologies will officially launch their new 6312 Label Printer-Applicator at Pack Expo International 2024.  The 6312 is ideal for simple label print and apply applications, such as shipping labeling, as well as for small to medium size businesses looking to begin their automation journey.

Designed to be an entry level label print and apply solution, the FOX IV 6312 is streamlined and simplified.  By incorporating the Postek MX series print engine, no external PC or PLC is required.   With just a few taps on the LCD touch screen, the entire labeling process can be set up and ready to use – no coding experience required!  The best feature; however, is its affordability.  The lower cost of acquisition makes automating labeling achievable for small to medium-sized businesses.

“The 6312 is a great way to start automating your fulfillment processes,” said FOX IV Marketing Manager, Catherine Hornsby. “The large 4.5-inch touchscreen, built-in PLC, and simplified applicator controls makes the 6312 easy for operators to use.  It can be set up on a new or existing conveyor or used with a manual trigger for semi-automatic labeling. The entry-level price point makes automating labeling easier to justify by providing fast ROI through increased throughput, labor time savings, and minimized labeling errors. For companies ready to move to the next level, it’s a great starting point.”  

The Postek MX print module is incorporated into FOX IV’s durable industrial applicator design.  Labels up to 4.72 inches can be printed at speeds up to 18 ips, depending on model, and applied directly to the top, side, or bottom of a product, shipping box, reusable tote, or pallet. Systems are available with 203, 300, or 600 dpi print resolution. Other features include automated printhead pressure adjustments, a 12-inch OD label roll capacity, and automatic calibration for consistent high-quality printing.  Several optional features are offered to customize the labeling experience, including RFID encoding and verification, 1D and 2D barcode verification, ribbon saver, and a wireless communication option.    

Pack Expo attendees can experience the new FOX IV 6312 at Booth #4936 in the North Hall.
