Sleeve feeders are an integral part of today's printing solutions in both the food and the pharmaceutical industries, allowing non-contact print on sleeves with high accuracy and at speed.

The RF2 Friction Carton and Sleeve Feeder is ideal for the fast and cost-effective coding of cartons and sleeves. It is a standalone carton and sleeve feeder developed using established technology within the RF1 range and designed specifically for non-contact printers such as inkjet and laser. This allows a high throughput rate and is a cost-effective option where the application and print requirements permit.

It can be used to print date and batch codes or simple graphics. Printers can be fitted quickly giving a cost-effective offline coding solution, particularly where a spare printer is available.

Key features of the RF2 Friction Feeder are:

• Simple controls and quick set separation and hopper guides to minimise downtime.
• Small footprint allows it to be moved easily between production lines.
• High speed with high torque retaining control over the product while automatically separated and dispensed.
