Popcorn manufacturer Cornpoppers has ordered four 53LTi thermal transfer coder machines for its factory in Wednesbury in the West Midlands. 


The company supplies bagged popcorn in own-label format for supermarket chains and in branded bags for wholesalers, shops and leisure venues. Cornpoppers is increasing its facility with two new packing lines, which will incorporate two of the Allen 53LTi coders for 'best before' date stamping, as well as batch code information on laminated and oriented polypropylene film.

The 53LTi provides 300dpi print resolution; cassette ribbon loading; 600m ribbon capacity; 53mm x 30mm print area with print speeds up to 400mm a second; and a thermal print head.

The Allen coder is suitable for marking labels and other packaging substrate with RSS barcodes; linear and composite barcodes; real time; sell-by dates; batch numbers; company logos; prices and source codes.

The 53LTi comes with keypad and label design software.
