Print and apply labeller installed

Coding specialist Interactive Coding Equipment (ICE) is helping the Real Yorkshire Pudding Company to increase its production line efficiencies following the UK first installation of the company’s new ICE Vulcan print and apply labeller.
With around 1.5 million Yorkshire puddings coming off the line each week, the company needed a printer applicator machine to improve productivity at the final packing stage. Replacing manual labelling on its secondary packaging line, the Vulcan prints and applies onto the company’s outer cases. This has resulted in significant savings of around four to five hours in production time and is also enabling the Real Yorkshire Pudding Company to achieve significant waste reductions as it now prints only the labels it needs in real time.
In addition, the new system allows the use by date to be incorporated into the product barcode, enabling more information to be added to the outer box.
