When brands need on-demand customization and minimal changeover time, traditional label reels and long setup windows are buried in the past. Norwalt’s Tesseract is a next-generation direct-to-object printing platform that brings fast, flexible, on-demand branding to consumer-packaged goods (CPGs). Rather than relying on traditional label reels and lengthy mechanical changeovers, the Tesseract dynamically moves parts with maglev XPlanar movers so a single print engine can cover a variety of geometries with sub-millimeter precision.
The results:
- Software-based changeovers in seconds
- Up to 40% reduction in mechanical costs
- High-precision, multi-color registration, and expanded geometry support
- Minimized waste, maximized sustainability
By leveraging TwinCAT, EtherCAT, and XPlanar maglev motion control from Beckhoff, Norwalt built a scalable system that minimizes waste, shrinks mechanical complexity, and enables software changeovers in seconds.
