FOX IV Technologies, a long‑time innovator in automated labeling, recently introduced two new automated label print‑and‑apply systems—expanding their labeling range for warehouse labeling applications.
The new 5961 Compact Label Print & Apply and 8008 Wide Label Print & Apply systems are engineered to meet the evolving identification needs of material handling, packaging, warehousing, and industrial operations. Together, they bookend the labeling spectrum: one built for tight spaces and labels up to 4.25” wide, the other designed for oversized, high‑impact applications.
5961 Compact Label Print & Apply: Big Capability in a Small Footprint
Designed for space‑restricted environments and low‑to‑medium throughput operations, such as pallet labeling, the FOX IV 5961 delivers the full functionality of a larger print‑and‑apply system in a streamlined, compact frame. It handles an impressive range of label sizes—from 0.79″ × 0.5″ up to 4″ × 8″—making it ideal for inventory labeling, compliance labeling, and shipping applications.
The 5961 integrates Zebra print technology, offers 203, 300, or 600 dpi resolution, and supports a 12″ OD label roll. Its Allen‑Bradley PLC, color touchscreen HMI, and easy‑maintenance design make it production‑friendly for operators and integrators alike.
“The 5961 brings big capability to a compact footprint,” notes FOX IV’s product team. “It’s built for operations that need accuracy and flexibility without giving up valuable line space.”
Key Features:
- Compact footprint for tight production areas
- Small‑label print‑and‑apply capability
- Zebra print engine (203/300/600 dpi)
- Up to 4.09″ print width
- 12″ OD label roll capacity
- Electric or pneumatic applicator options
- Allen‑Bradley PLC + color HMI
- Easy maintenance and integration
8008 Wide Label Print & Apply: Built for the Biggest Labeling Challenges:
When applications demand labels wider than 6″, the FOX IV 8008 steps in with industrial‑grade power and precision. Purpose‑built for drums, pails, barrels, pallets, and large‑format packaging, the 8008 prints and applies labels up to 8.75″ wide with a crisp 8.5″ print width.
Powered by TSC/Printronix print technology, the 8008 offers 203 or 300 dpi resolution and supports multiple printer language emulations—including Zebra ZPL and SATO SBPL—making it easy to drop into existing workflows.
With a 14″ OD label roll capacity, robust construction, and a selection of application methods (including tamp, tamp‑roll, rotary actuator, and vacuum belt), the 8008 is engineered for demanding industrial environments.
“The 8008 is designed for operations where a standard label simply won’t cut it,” says FOX IV. “It brings wide‑format labeling muscle to applications that require bold, compliant, and highly visible identification.”
Key Features:
- Prints and applies labels up to 8.75″ wide
- 8.5″ print width
- TSC/Printronix print engine (203/300 dpi)
- Emulates major printer languages for seamless integration
- Large‑capacity label roll (up to 14″ OD)
- Allen‑Bradley PLC + color touchscreen HMI
- Multiple application methods, including custom options
In addition to the 5961 and 8008, FOX IV ‘s range of automated labeling solutions includes standard label print-and-apply, RFID print‑and‑apply, TwinPrint® dual‑sided labeling, linerless systems, and packing slip automation.
