The label layout is displayed in WYSIWYG mode with realistic, up-to-date product data and is printed exactly as shown on the screen—avoiding many cumbersome and time-consuming test prints.

Design of All Label Types

• ScanPlant LabelDesigner is a flexible system capable of designing a variety of label types, including:
• Retail labels with product name, ingredient list, nutritional values, storage instructions, packaging date, expiration/best-before date, traceability data with batch number, origin, supplier info, and net weight, and optionally, price per kg and final price.
• Outer packaging labels according to GS1 guidelines with 1D or 2D barcodes.
• GS1 standard A5 pallet labels with SSCC barcode.
• Shipping labels.

Global Fonts, Characters, and Barcodes

LabelDesigner uses standard TrueType fonts from Windows, offering perfect opportunities to use the customer's own profile fonts for labeling tasks, ensuring optimal product profiling.

The system supports Unicode fonts, making it easy to create labels with foreign characters, such as Greek, Chinese, Arabic, and Russian. Text can also always be copied directly from other Windows programs into the label.

ScanPlant LabelDesigner supports all barcode types used in the food industry, including EAN, GS1-128, INT 2 of 5, ITF14, as well as 2D barcode types like QR and DataMatrix.

Highlighting Allergens

ScanPlant LabelDesigner includes an allergen feature that, based on a list of allergens, automatically highlights allergenic substances on the label if they are present in the product, in compliance with mandatory regulations.

Quick Setup of Data Fields

The LabelDesigner module is fully integrated within the ScanPlant NG Manufacturing Execution System, where data is stored in an SQL database. This means there are no cumbersome external files to manually manage, saving valuable time. Variable data fields from the ScanPlant SQL database can be easily selected from a list, making label setup quick and simple for the user.
