Tabbing & Labeling

With ever-increasing postal regulations and the need to meet the demands of creative tabbing and labeling applications, it's important to have access to the versatility of Buskro's BK730 Tabber and BK730WL Wide Label Tabber.

The Tabbing Process

Tabbing closures themselves can be round or square, clear, translucent or opaque, paper or plastic.  They are applied with the BK730 using a specially designed labeling head which feeds out the tab onto the top half of the piece, applying it so that half of it is stuck to the top.  The piece then goes through a simple but effective plow-folding device, which folds the tab around the side of the piece and then uses rollers and belts on the top and bottom to ensure that the tab is properly affixed to both sides.  The tabbing head is very accurate for placement of the tabs, and very fast.  If the piece is long, and one tab is not sufficient to keep it closed, you can select to have two or even three tabs applied to a piece!

Innovation Made Easy!

The principle is simple, but few systems can do it with the precision or ease-of-setup of the Buskro BK730.  Enter the length of the piece, how many tabs you want applied per piece and press an auto configuration button.  The system does the rest to get the tabs right where you want them.

For labeling, the head that applies the tab can be re-threaded with labels or stamps.  It is then set up to apply the label fully to the piece instead of along the side when it is folded under.

Increased Production Efficiency

The BK730 can handle labels up to 3" wide (5" for BK730WL) by 7" long – thanks to its large buffer container – and it can apply them at astonishing speed.  Also, because the controls for the head are attached directly to it and powered separately from the base, you can actually attach the tabbing head (now called the BK731 without the base) to any transport and have it work as a self-standing labeling unit.
