| 1. Reduce Labor Cost per Label and Improve
Productivity. |
| |
It costs
more to pick up a label roll, peel a label, and apply it to a product
than most labels cost.
The average time to apply a label unaided* is 8 seconds. With labor at
$10/hr and 80% efficiency the unaided labor cost is 2.8 cents per
label! That could be more than the cost of your labels.
It's been proven that with The Label Dispenser the same operators can
average less than 4 seconds per label! A saving of 4 expensive seconds
per label or a cost reduction of almost 1.5 cents per label -- that's
50%! |
|
| 2. Reduce Operator Fatigue. |
| |
Try
peeling a roll of 1000 labels one by one unaided, letting go of the
roll each time. You will find that fatigue sets in quickly and both
production speed and label placement accuracy suffer.
Then try the same task with The Label Dispenser. Electric label
dispensers mean operator fatigue decreases. Accordingly, placement
accuracy increases. |
|
| 3. Reduce Repetitive Injury Syndrome. |
| |
Carpal
tunnel syndrome, an injury resulting from repetitive wrist action and
covered by Workers' Compensation, can result in heavy claim costs and
lost-time wages. These unnecessary payroll expenses can be avoided with
the use of The Label Dispenser. |
|
| 4. Reduce Wasted Labels. |
| |
An
unaided hand labeling operation wastes 5% to 10% of labels due to
spoilage and short roll discards. Any production manager-keeping track
already knows this.
The Label Dispenser presents the label ready for use, quickly and
easily, down to the last label. . |
|
| 5. Medical & Food Environment Benefit. |
| |
The
Label Dispenser’s use a unique dispenser plate that the peeled label
never comes in contact with. No build up of adhesive on the dispenser
means there is no contamination of the label or the operator's hand
from the dispenser.
Other manufacturers of label dispensers use a metal coil in their
"peeling mechanism". As the peeled label rolls over the coil, adhesive
from the label collects on the coil. |
|
| 6. Health-and-Safety Benefit. |
| |
The
label backing liner is made of silicone and is slippery. In a work
environment a backing discarded onto the work floor is a potential slip
hazard. Most backings are also flammable. Thus it is very important
that the used backing not be thrown onto a work floor or workbench.
The Label Dispenser’s automatically rewind the used label backing liner
for easy disposal.
|
|
| 7. Improve Label Integrity. |
| |
By
minimizing the handling of your label you reduce the labels exposure to
dirt, dust, and oils therefore having better adhesion. Also by using
The Label Dispenser you never have to worry about your labels ending up
with dog-ears. |
|
| 8. Pays for itself. |
| |
The
Label Dispenser’s are simple to operate, to maintain, and are
inexpensive. As a way of reducing your costs it works -- there's no
question about it. We maintain that a The Label Dispenser will pay for
itself with every roll of labels used. Users of our label dispensers
prove this every day. |
