Computype and Nautilus Jointly Launch Innovative Print-and-Apply Labeling System
31 Jan 2011Computype, Inc. and Nautilus Systems announce the launch of the PR100i, an advanced print-and-apply system designed specifically for challenging labeling requirements in the laboratory environment. The PR100i is a desktop label applicator that can print and apply up to 12 labels, in tandem, with precision and accuracy.
The system features a high-quality thermal transfer printing system with 600 dpi resolution, and a patent-pending retracting peel edge technology, making it ideal for small labels, tight registration, and a variety of container shapes and sizes.
“This is the first system of its kind to be introduced to the lab market,” said Computype laboratory market manager Eric Isberg. “Engineered by Nautilus, the applicator, which uses Computype’s uniquely customizable labels, makes it possible to print and apply multiple, distinct labels at once. The potential for increased productivity, compared to the traditional method of hand-applying label after label, is huge.”
In addition to freeing valuable time and resources, the PR100i’s compact design occupies very little space on crowded lab surfaces. It also offers increased capability and accurate placement for label sizes from 4x4 mm to 100x100 mm, a range that is challenging for traditional applicators.
“We’re pleased to partner with Computype, leaders in the label and identification industry, to introduce the PR100i to the market,” said Nautilus president Steve Gunnerson. “Our patent-pending retracting peel edge technology finally makes it possible to switch from a nerve-wracking ‘Flutter, Float, Levitate and Hope’ system to the more reliable and efficient ‘Capture, Peel and Place’ method of labeling small containers and packages.”
