From digital cutting to faster assembly the AutoTape automatically applies double-sided adhesive tape to flat printed and cut products – delivering fast, straight and repeatable tape placement without the labour intensive process of applying tape by hand.
Digital cutting has transformed short to medium run packaging and point-of-sale production. Cartons, presentation folders, wallets, tent cards, shelf wobblers and promotional products can now be printed, cut and creased in quantities of hundreds – quickly, economically and without conventional cutting dies.
But once the cutting is finished there is often one process that remains stubbornly manual; applying the adhesive tape. The Plockmatic AutoTape files that production gap.
Whether the finished product will be assembled immediately or supplied flat for assembly later, AutoTape provides the ideal next step after digital cutting. Simply feed the prepared product onto the machine and AutoTape correctly positions, applies and cuts the required tape.
Higher productivity, lower labour and greater consistency.
Manual tape application may be inexpensive to start with but as production volumes increase, it quickly becomes a bottleneck.
An operator must dispense the tape, position it, apply it, cut it and stack each piece by hand, then repeat the process hundreds or thousands of times!
AutoTape transforms this repetitive finishing operation into an efficient production process.
Digital cutters can create hundreds of finished blankets per hour.
AutoTape helps make sure adhesive application doesn’t become the next production bottleneck.
