Industrial printing solution specialist Intermec has launched a new family of label printers in the Australian and New Zealand markets targeting mission critical applications.

The company's PM23c is an all-metal barcode label printer for such markets and applications as product labelling and food traceability, as well as airline passenger services, manufacturing, and retail.

“The rugged nature of the PM23c makes it perfect for environments that require small durable printing solutions,” Intermec’s printer and scanner channel business manager in ANZ, Rick Newman, said.

“The PM23c also offers our customers a lower total cost of ownership and maximised up-time because of the user replaceable parts, such as the print heads or platen roller, which are the two most common failure parts on any barcode printer.”

The PM23c joins the company's existing PM43 and PM43c models, which all feature full colour touch-screen controls featuring as well as radio frequency identification (RFID), WiFi and Cisco-compatible (CCX) certifications and optional Bluetooth connectivity.

Newman said the enhanced features of the PM23c model enables it to maximise uptime and reduce frequent media handling via precision print, which means it can easily print small barcodes, text and images with pinpoint accuracy.

He said that according to research, enterprises are seeking compact printers that deliver the print precision, quality and speed needed for industrial printing jobs, while working seamlessly with other peripheral industrial technologies.

Food & Drink Business

Australia’s ‘cheese-centric’ dairy industry is looking to higher-value uses of milk protein – such as nutritional supplements – as national milk production remains low, according to Rabobank.

Tucking into a hamburger without harming animals is closer to reality after University of Queensland (UQ) researchers found a way to cut costs in cultivated meat production.

Sixteen months after receivers were appointed over its holding company, the structural obstacle to selling Western Australia’s largest milk processor has been removed. McGrathNicol has launched the formal sale process for Brownes Dairy, with China Mengniu Dairy Company consolidating its holding position so the entire enterprise can be put to market rather than a shareholding above it.
