Putting the brakes on laborious labels
April 1st 2008

Witchita's range of clutches and brakes for industrial, mining and marine applications required a selection of aluminium labels containing unique product identification information. Its labour intensive method of printing, sizing and manually fitting labels needed a solution to reduce errors and costs.

Sister company, Matrix, was using Toshiba printers for sequential labelling, and after a visit there, maintenance manager Lee Moss, contacted Toshiba who recommended local supplier ERS.

A Toshiba B-SV4T desktop printer with Solo software and bespoke labels was installed and has reduced production costs by over 400%.

"The installation was seamless and the benefits immediate" comments Moss. The labelling process was speeded up from 1 hour to 2 minutes. Witchita are now using the Toshiba/Solo package on 6 types of media and 27 different labels.
