There are a few options when it comes to digital label finishers so I’m going to explain what types of label finishers there are and why you would use each type of finisher.
A digital label finisher is a machine that allows you to take pre printed, continuous label material and cut it down to whatever label size you require. With lots of finishers you usually get to add a laminate before the material is cut for added durability to the label. Once the labels are laminated and cut the waste material is removed and then the labels can be slit into individual rolls if needed.
Depending on your label size you can usually print multiple labels across and then slit the finished labels into individual rolls ready for application.
There are really 3 types of label finishers of which there are many models. These three types are separated by the way in which they actually cut the labels. Here are the 3 cutting methods.
There are lots of options and many options of just one cutting type so we strongly recommend you talk to our team and let us help you work out your requirement. We can prove the concept using your artwork and producing your labels as you would. We’ll cost machinery and running costs as well as demonstrating the machines to show timings and the process. We’ll help you get a full understanding of the how a digital label finisher could work for you and what it will cost you.
