WHO IS SATO?

What is SATO?

SATO is a Japanese manufacturer of label printers and labelling solutions. The range runs from compact desktop printers through industrial printers for continuous duty to print and apply systems that place labels automatically. For OPAL, SATO complements the printing portfolio wherever special form factors, continuous load or automation are required.

SHARED TOPICS

Which problems do we solve with SATO?

The same points come up again and again around labelling.

The printer fails under load

Printing thousands of labels across three shifts calls for industrial technology, not an office device.

Applying labels by hand

Manual application costs time and creates errors. Print and apply systems take that over.

The label does not hold

Cold, moisture, grease or cleaning will lift the wrong material off the product.

Layouts are not maintained

Without central templates, labels appear that miss requirements and customer specifications.

HOW WE WORK

How do we solve this in practice?

Printer, material and layout all come from one source with us.

Selecting the right printer

We size the printer by volume, environment and form factor at the place of use.

Labels from our own production

Matching material, tested against your requirement, from our own label manufacturing.

Layouts in the system

Label layouts maintained centrally and printed from ERP or SAP®.
