EZ-Standard Low to Mid-Speed Applicators

Axon's EZ-Standard series of tamper evident band and shrink sleeve label applicators represent the value standard for flexible and economical shrink sleeve label and tamper evident band application at low to moderate speeds.

EZ-Standard applicators are vacuum style machines that deliver fast, tool-less five-minute size changeovers and consistent, repeatable performance. Change parts are inexpensive and they represent a true bargain when compared to mandrel style change parts.

Like all Axon applicators EZ-Standard models are fully automatic, continuous motion machines featuring a cantilevered frame that enables easy integration into new or existing packaging lines.

The EZ-Standard applicators include the EZ-100, EZ-130, EZ-200 and EZ-300 for applying sleeve labels and neck bands ranging from 18 mm to 300 mm (11.8”) in layflat width (LFW).

EZ-Standard models are offered with single-head and dual head configurations and dual head configurations are capable of steady-state production speeds up to 300 cpm. Single head models can be easily upgraded to dual heads in the field as production needs change.

Like every Axon shrink sleeve applicator, EZ-Standard sleeve applicators offer the flexibility to perform five important shrink applications:

Tamper evident bands
Partial body sleeves
Full body sleeves
Full body over-the-cap sleeves
Multi-packs

Flexibility, their low price and dependable performance makes EZ-Standard applicators one of the best values in the industry.
