The S3S – Series 3 Premier labeler is Tronics’ flagship automated labeling system. Having evolved over three decades, it is by far the best value on the market today when it comes to an in-line, automatic pressure sensitive labeling machine.
S3S Premier labelers come in standard, medium, and high speed configurations. They can automatically apply front and back and wrap around labels, and top and bottom labels. The S3S can also orientate and label products, apply crescent-shaped labels to tapered round products, and offers Zero Down Time (ZDT) redundant label heads that switch back and forth as label rolls run out of labels. These labeling machines have a proven track across all of the major packaging industries.
The Tronics S3S automatic label applicator is crafted with laser machined precision. Large stainless steel shafts and pressed bushings allow fingertip control over a comprehensive range of 4-axis pitch-n-roll label head setup adjustments. Further, gradient ruled reference marks on adjustment shafts permit repeat jobs to be quickly and easily reproduced in a consistent and repeatable manner.
With Tronics labelers, all control panel adjustments are truly one touch away, so making on-the-fly adjustments during production are simple and instantaneous. And, because the touch panel swivels, adjustments can easily be made from either side of the machine. The S3S touch panel stores up to 100 jobs and makes recalling previous labeling jobs for a specific product a snap.
All Tronics S3S label application modules contain individual stepper motors that are fully synchronized with the product conveyors heavy duty servo motor and right angle gearbox (there are not any chains or sprockets on the conveyor drive to stretch or wear out).
This ensures consistently accurate label placement, regardless of changing production speeds. This also proves valuable in machine setup; the operator can setup a new product at crawl speeds, knowing the label position will remain constant upon increasing the machine speed to production rates after setup.
The S3S comes pre-wired with male/female quick-connect military connectors making field upgrade and their electrical connections a snap. Further, your machine comes pre-drilled and pre-tapped, ready to mount future standard modules. And, we’ve pre-loaded all the software you’ll need to add standard modules to your S3S in the field yourself or via one of our excellent service technicians.
Need to run a round products but don’t have a wraparound module? With Tronics, upgrades are fast and easy. If needed, we’ll ship a wrap module to you via next day air, and you can be running round bottles as soon as possible. the very next day. That’s because most standard field upgrades can be installed by you, with a minimum of downtime or cost. This advantage eliminates costly downtime incurred when sending a machine back to the OEM for upgrades, or the expense of having an OEM labeler technician flown in to perform the work. Competing equipment often cannot even be upgraded, or it’s too cost prohibitive to do so, resulting in having to buy yet another entire labeler. The Series 3 being scalable is why contract packagers love the Series 3 labeler.
We know how important it is to keep your product labeling system up and running.We also understand your desire to get things ready and running quickly when your labeling project needs change. We developed the S3S field upgrade features with YOU in mind. Tronics provides an adaptable machine that expands with your changing needs, in the field. And you avoid incurring any costs in lost production time or lost opportunities
The secret to the S3S having such a great service reputation is inherent in the design itself. Simplicity and standardization make the S3S easy to service. One such example is how the electronics slide out towards the technician for easy access due to being mounted on electrical drawers.
Your S3S label applicator includes a comprehensive owner’s manual, including expanded CAD drawings and wire schematics. Each drawing includes a corresponding parts list / parts number shown directly on the drawing itself. The owner’s manual also includes an easy-to-understand operating manual and troubleshooting guide section complete with illustrations and color photographs.
99% of all service calls are as simple as ordering a part or getting setup help from one of our factory-trained technicians right over the telephone. Tronics not only keep parts and modules on hand for your labeler, but typically has about 10 labelers on the floor available for sale at all times. Of course, a Tronics Professional Technician can be available for on-site support, if need be.
