FOR A<br />

SAFE & SMOOTH<br />

SUPPLY CHAIN<br />

PALLET<br />

CLEAR IDENTIFICATION ALONG THE SUPPLY CHAIN<br />

• Industrial & compliant pallet identifi cation<br />

• For all requirements: from manual to fully automated labeling<br />

• Easy-to-integrate inline or stand-alone solutions<br />

• <strong>Labeling</strong> from 1 up to 4 pallet sides<br />

• Meets latest digital requirements


WORLDWIDE ON THE SAFE SIDE –<br />

THE GS1-STANDARD<br />

Ensures correct labeling and there<strong>by</strong> full traceability of your pallets. These labels include information such as<br />

batch number, item number, product name, production time and more. The GS1 standard defines the exact<br />

content, size and positioning. What for? So that traceability, transparency and efficiency are always ensured<br />

in the warehouse, in the logistics center or at various stations in the supply chain. A non-scannable pallet<br />

interrupts the process. This leads to loss of time and money. The applied labels must therefore contain<br />

easy-to-read and scannable information – and therefore be printed in excellent quality.<br />

IDENTIFICATION CONFORM TO GS1<br />

• The core element and mandatory component of the<br />

GS1 transport label is the SSCC (Serial Shipping<br />

Container Code), which enables perfect traceability<br />

of the pallet throughout the entire supply chain<br />

• Additional information such as GLN (global location<br />

number) of the delivery address, batch number or<br />

weight information is also encoded in the GS1-128<br />

symbology<br />

• The fields, field lengths and codes are standardized<br />

to ensure that all goods can be identified with a<br />

barcode scanner<br />

• All barcodes must be error-free and 100% readable<br />

• Size of the pallet label is A5 landscape<br />

• For pallets, two labels are normally applied to two<br />

neighbouring sides<br />

www.gs1.org<br />

The GS1 process describes the positioning<br />

of pallet labels on the pallet – for both fully<br />

and partially packed pallets.<br />

HEADER SEGMENT<br />

Contains freely editable information,<br />

e.g. specification of the sender as well as the recipient.<br />

MIDDLE-SEGMENT<br />

Plain text indication of the information encoded in the barcode. The<br />

data content should be printed with a font height of at least 7 mm.<br />

FOOT SEGMENT<br />

The data is encoded in the GS1-128 barcode.<br />

The SSCC is the only mandatory information<br />

on the pallet label.


PALLET IDENTIFICATION – MAKE YOUR CHOICE!<br />

Whether for warehouse identifi cation or for shipping within the supply chain: pallets must be labeled clearly and<br />

professionally. On the one hand, to ensure smooth delivery and, on the other hand, to be quickly located and<br />

traceable.<br />

The labeling is done with pallet labels which are applied to the pallets manually or automatically. Linear<br />

applicators, in which the labels are applied <strong>by</strong> an applicator arm, are the most commonly used and have proven<br />

themselves many times over. If a high degree of fl exibility is required, industrial robots are also used. Which<br />

application method is the right one depends mainly on business requirements. Other dependencies such as<br />

special environmental infl uences may also play a role.<br />

<strong>NOVEXX</strong> <strong>Solutions</strong> systems!


Our pallet labeling solutions communicate with all types of ERP/MES or data management systems to ensure that<br />

the correct data is printed on the labels.<br />

With TRACE-it, our own process and data management software solution, it‘s easy to meet additional<br />

requirements for your pallet labeling process.<br />

MANUAL<br />

LABEL PRINTER<br />

XLP<br />

• Perfect printing of GS1-compliant DIN A5 labels<br />

with the XLP 516 or XLP 606 label printer<br />

• The label is applied manually<br />

• For labeling smaller pallet quantities<br />

• Use as backup for automatic systems<br />

ROBOT<br />

AUTOMATIC & FLEXIBLE:<br />

ROBOT<br />

• Combination of a <strong>NOVEXX</strong> Print (& Apply) System<br />

and a robotic arm<br />

• The robot takes the labels from the Print (& Apply)<br />

System and applies multiple labels to different<br />

positions on a pallet<br />

• Remote operability thanks to web interface<br />

• Cost-effective entry into pallet labeling<br />

• Industrial high-performance printer<br />

• For the most complex labeling requirements,<br />

high fl exibility & accuracy<br />

• Ready for the future: quick adaptation to<br />

changing requirements, fl exible programming


INTELLIGENT SOFTWARE FOR PALLET LABELING<br />

• Print data can be sent fully automatically to the pallet labeler via the TRACE-it data management<br />

software. TRACE-it connects, manages and controls all labeling operations in the production process in<br />

one central location - for high transparency and accuracy in the various process steps.<br />

• Using a PLC or scanner, TRACE-it knows when the pallet is there, what it is loaded with, what needs to<br />

be printed, and when the labeling process is finished.<br />

• When a pallet is finished being packed and labeled, feedback is sent to the system. The pallet is<br />

released and goes to the warehouse or to shipping.<br />

• TRACE-it controls, regulates, tracks and stores the exact path of the pallet.<br />

RELEVANT FOR YOUR DECISION<br />

MANUALY OR AUTOMATED PALLET LABELING?<br />

• Depending on the number of pallets, pallet labeling can be performed manually or automatically.<br />

• Manual pallet labeling is the best option for small pallet quantities. The manual process takes time and it<br />

must be clear to the employee where and how the label must be applied <strong>by</strong> hand to ensure the position<br />

meets the GS1 standard.<br />

• Systems, such as the XPU or the XPA, automatically label pallets to GS1 standards and adjust to<br />

conveyor speed. This allows a high volume of pallets to be labeled on the fl y without the need for an<br />

operator.<br />

• The pallet is stopped briefl y and the labels are applied via the automated system. If production volumes<br />

increase or if congestion occurs in the production process, such a system can adapt and also be scaled<br />

up.<br />

IN WHAT PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT IS THE SOLUTION LOCATED?<br />

• As an integrated system, the XPA 936 performs fully automatically with maximum ease of use and<br />

perfect print quality.<br />

• If the final labeling of the pallet must withstand a harsh environment (cold, heat, dust, humidity, ...), it<br />

may be necessary to protect the system with a protective housing.<br />

• Here, the stand-alone solution XPU is the best choice.
