Axon Launches Shrink-Sleeve Applicator for Wet-Filling Rooms

Axon is now offering a stainless-steel option for the Aurora, a series of in-line mandrel-style shrink-sleeve applicators. The Aurora series offers applicator speeds up to 300 full-body shrink sleeves per minute. The stainless-steel frame options – in 304 grade for wet-filling rooms and 316 grade for increased corrosion resistance – are ideal for full shrink-sleeve labeling for beverages, dairy products, household chemicals, pharmaceuticals and more. Aurora applicators deliver simplified operation, maintenance and line integration through the industry standards defined by packaging machinery language. The units also feature a modular EtherNet/IP control platform from Rockwell Automation. Along with a variety of standard features, including recipe functionality, left- or right-hand orientation, bilingual operation, electric height adjustment and a performance guarantee, Axon offers numerous custom options for Aurora units. This means customers only pay for the features most beneficial to their unique environment.
