The central component of LabelSystem SC-20 is automatic cutter POLAR 137 Autotrim M which efficiently produces square-cut labels. Since POLAR's automatic cutter Autotrim M cuts both strips and labels, no strip cutter or feeder table is required. The material for producing labels must be available in the form of a jogged ream.
The material is either manually fed via the front table, or automatically via the rear table. First of all the operator cuts the material into strips. In the automatic cutter these strips are positioned, before they are laterally aligned on the rear table before cutting. After that, the individual products are automatically cut to labels. After the labels have been cut, they are arranged on the front table. A deloading device pushes them into the BM-105 multi-station bander. After that the row pusher takes the complete label row to the banding device. The completely banded packs are pushed further onto the delivery table from where they can be manually removed for packaging.

In square-cut label production the POLAR LabelSystem SC-21 provides maximum efficiency, because production steps are carried out in parallel mode. First of all, a POLAR high-speed cutter cuts the label material to strips, either in-line or off-line. Finishing is carried out on the automatic cutter POLAR Autocut 115, the central component of LabelSystem SC-21.
The precut strips are manually positioned on the POLAR LT-S loading table, before they are pushed onto the Autocut rear table. In the Autocut 115 the strips are arranged on the rear table with their sides and front precisely aligned. After the labels have been cut, they are automatically arranged on the front table. A deloading device pushes them into the BM-105 multi-station bander. After that the row pusher takes the complete label row to the banding device. Once the packs are completely banded they are pushed further onto the delivery table and can be manually removed for packaging.

POLAR LabelSystem SC-25 is extremely efficient and accurate in cutting. Two strips can be processed simultaneously and help to obtain new dimensions of performance of up to 1,560 packs banded in 60 minutes. It is designed as a modular system especially for industrial manufacturing of minimum-size labels. First of all, a POLAR high-speed cutter cuts the label material to strips, either in-line or off-line. Finishing is carried out in the automatic cutter POLAR Autocut 25, the central component of LabelSystem SC-25.
The precut strips are manually positioned on the LT-S and afterwards pushed onto the Autocut rear table. In the Autocut the strips are arranged on the rear table with their sides and front precisely aligned. Two strips, each, are cut simultaneously. After being cut, the two labels are transferred via a swivel unit into the BSduo banding device. First, the two labels are separated. Then, a feeder unit pushes them through the banding material where they are properly welded.
