Interruption-free labeling thanks to the HERMA 500’s redundancy function

Reliable, non-stop labeling is now available with our newly integrated redundancy function on the HERMA 500. This means that at the end of a roll or in the event of another fault, two HERMA 500 applicators connected in series can take turns, since they communicate directly with one another. An additional PLC is not required. This ensures reliable processes, preventing both products with no labels and products with duplicate labels.

   

Easy to set up and functional at all times

  • Easy to activate the function with a code
  • Buy directly in myHERMA and activate with HERMA 500

  • At the end of the roll or in the event of another fault, the second labeling machine takes over
