In order for the consumer to have the freshest possible fruit, the time between harvest and sale may not exceed 24 hours. That significantly complicates reliable, transparent labelling: articles must be inspected, sorted, weighed and then immediately packed – transporting them to the printer for labelling purposes would cost too much time.
For the vendor it was clear: the fruit boxes must be directly labelled on-site. And that is only possible with a particularly reliable and top-performing mobile printer. TSC’s Alpha-3R proved itself quickly after a test to be the ideal choice: the versatile direct thermal printer delivers 12 hours of non-stop performance without a battery change. Weighing only 550 grams you comfortably carry it on your belt or shoulder. In the meantime, the customer is using 39 of these devices on a daily basis.
The customer is completely satisfied with the devices. “For packaging and product capture we rely on TSC, in order to ensure the highest quality, both now and in the future,” he explained. “The Alpha-3R is flexibly usable on-site and ensures for transparent, back trackable and secure processes.”
