Arpeco® - Precision Automation® Co., Inc. - Inspection, Slitting, Converting and Rewinding Equipment

In 1968, Arpeco designed and introduced to label printers and converters, the world's first off-line inspection, slitting, rewinding machine, patented and registered as the TRACKER^®.

With over four thousand Trackers sold worldwide, Arpeco has spent years continually upgrading the features and options, offering leading label printers and converters accuracy, consistency and reliability.

Machine Control

The TRACKER^®, in its base configuration, is fully capable of handling your slitting and rewinding tasks while providing accurate length or repeat counting. With the addition of selected options, you can visually inspect the web, check for un-removed matrix, missing labels, mill splices or press flags, count die cut labels as well as select additional slitting methods and a range of other, optional, features.

The newest TRACKER^® incorporates CE compliant machine controls which are simple to use and are located at the front of the machine for easy operator access. Extensive use of internationally recognized symbols together with the multi-lingual capability of the touch-screen operator interfaces make operation very simple any where in the world.
