Fleximate eBlade Print Apply

Solution overview

Full electric wipe on applicator

FlexiMate eBlade is a high-performance print & apply solution designed to deliver speed, stability and efficiency in high-throughput environments.
Its wipe-on technology, combined with a buffered labeling process, ensures continuous operation by separating printing from application.
Labels are always ready when needed, enabling smooth and reliable performance even at variable line speeds.
This makes eBlade the ideal solution for high-speed applications where process stability matters more than real-time printing.
Modular by design, it integrates seamlessly into different production layouts, adapting to a wide range of applications.

Always ready to apply.
FlexiMate eBlade uses a buffered wipe-on process to ensure stable, high-speed labeling with consistent label availability—even in dynamic production conditions.

Solution highlights

  1. Buffered labeling process

    A label buffer ensures continuous availability between printing and application.
    Maintaining stable performance even at variable production speeds.

  2. High-speed wipe-on application

    Designed for fast and efficient labeling on moving products. Delivering reliable performance in high-throughput environments.

  3. Smooth liner handling

    Optimized liner path ensures accurate and consistent label dispensing.
    Improving application reliability and reducing interruptions.

  4. Stable print-to-apply flow

    Printing and application are managed in a stable and controlled sequence.
    Ensuring consistent results without the need for real-time synchronization.
