This bag labelling system is part of an automated line for filling and despatching sacks of seed.
There are two Avery printer applicators on the belt that feeds flat sacks to the filling station.
The company's ERP system sends data for each shipment to the Codeway system. Every sack has two labels with variable data. The first Avery machine applies a Ministry label and the other adds a logistics label. The format of the logistics label can vary , depending on the haulier or the customer.
The second machine also prints and applies a third label to the last sack in the batch. The conveyor steps the sack forward into position to receive this shipment label.
A barcode scanner reads the barcode on each bag and saves a record for traceability.
