Label printers SQUIX
Flexible printers for industrial applications

  • Reliable and quick printing
  • Accurate print images
  • Easy to operate
  • Compact design
  • Maximum quality standards

They find use in various areas of use. They have been developed with consistent focus on intuitive usability and highly reliable processing.

Print mechanics and chassis are made of high-quality materials and match perfectly in design and function. A wide range of peripherals and software enable user-specific solutions.

The rugged printers stand up to any demand, whether operated stand-alone, with a PC or in a network. Print jobs are performed quickly and labels are provided straight away thanks to a high-speed processor.

SQUIX 4 Basic unit

Basic units provide a tear-off plate

Printed labels or continuous materials, wound on a roll or fanfold, can be torn off on a jagged plate.

Cutting a material is another option, so is external rewinding.

SQUIX 4 Peel-off version P

Peel-off units provide an internal rewinder

Dispense adds to the features of a basic unit. Printed labels are peeled off their liner and can be removed by hand or by an applicator.

SQUIX details
SQUIX 4 P peel-off printer
providing an internal rewinder

1 Hinged cover
Material stock can be checked and printer processes be followed through a large panoramic window.

2 Plungers
One is fixed next to the chassis inside. The other can be aligned to the outside margin of a label for optimum print images.

3 Metal chassis
It is the base to assemble components. Made of cast aluminum

4 Print roller coating
Synthetic rubber is standard, enabling highly accurate print images. Silicone is an option if aiming for extra long life cycles.

5 Label dispense
Labels are separated on a peel-off plate from their liner. A powered guide roller and a pinch roller enable highly accurate processes when printing and applying labels.

6 Peripheral port
Additional modules can be plugged easily and quickly to a unit and fixed with a screw.

7 Ribbon retainer
Replacing a ribbon is no big deal thanks to three-part clamping axles.

8 Roll retainer
The spring-mounted margin stop provides a screw cap and enables constant tension while materials are fed.

9 Internal rewinder
Labels or liners with or without a cardboard core can be wound on peel-off units. Handling a material is simplified by a three-part clamping axle.

10 Rocker
Spring mounting and guide rollers made of Teflon reduce traction and improve the accuracy of print images.

11 Material guide
It is assembled to the rocker. By turning the rotary knob, the stop can be aligned to the margin of a label.

Print image accuracy
The smaller a label, the higher are the demands. Print offset can be reduced by ±0.2 mm using slip correction.

Control panel

Self-explanatory symbols simplify settings and enable printers be operated intuitive and easily.

  1. Specifications are standards. Operations including small, slim, thick or stiff materials need testing, so do strongly adhesive labels.
  2. if labels are torn off, cut, rewound
  3. A ribbon should be at least as wide as the liner material.

  • Applicators and dispensing module

      S1000 applicator

      Apply labels in real time
      S1000 attached to a SQUIX peel-off printer is economic, whether operated semi-automated or integrated in vertical orientation to a manufacture plant. Labels are applied to an item by a stroke cylinder.

      1 Long life cycles: The ball bearing guide bars are low wear.

      2 Different levels of application: By providing different lengths of stroke for the cylinder, labels can be applied on various heights to an item.

      3 Compressed air regulation: Micro filters prevent from contamination. Decompression keeps the quality of label applications consistently high.

      4 Reliable processes: Supporting air, intake air and stroke speeds can all be set. The pressing force can be reduced to less than 10N (1kg) in sensitive operations. Purging the intake ducts subsequent to every label application prevents from contamination.

      5 A wide range of sizes: Labels 25 mm to 176 mm wide and 25 mm to 200 mm high can be applied.

      6 Supporting air: It enables labels be blown onto a pad.

      7 Pad: Labels are transferred to a pad and held there by vacuum. A stroke cylinder moves the pad with the labels to an item.

      Pre-dispense
      Label applications can be verified by the touch of a button. Printing is triggered on a first touch and the printed label is transferred to the applicator. The label is applied on a second touch.

      S5104, S5104 M, S5106 demand modules

      Items can be labeled in motion on a conveyor. A product sensor detects the target position of a label. While a label is peeled off, the next one is printed. The speed of transport has to match with the speed of printing. A reflective sensor monitors positioning.

      A label sensor can be included or not.
