Label Traxx 7.2 focuses on integration with strategic partners
At Labelexpo 2015 Label Traxx MIS introduces version 7.2, with the following enhanced features:
• Estimate and order magnetic tools electronically with Rotometrics through Label Traxx
• This new version of Label Traxx can monitor a folder on your network and when a file is dropped into that folder it will load automatically into Label Traxx – for example, artwork files can be dropped into the product image, approved proofs could be dropped into the job ticket or die lines dropped into the tooling record
• Label Traxx can now pass customized digital “lead-in” and “lead-out” data to Automation Engine, which can be automatically printed at the beginning and end of a run to simplify the job of the finishing department
• New enhanced ink pricing for HP WS6800 and white plus inks to handle “can” charges
• Quote inline priming
“This is an exciting release for Label Traxx,” explains Label Traxx President Ken Meinhardt. “We have developed some great new features with our strategic partners Rotometrics, HP Indigo and Esko, that build on our goal to streamline our mutual customers’ operations as far as possible.”
Streamlining is a key theme at Label Traxx and formed the basis of its humorous “Homegrown” video campaign launched earlier this year. Label printers who want to compete will need to invest in a platform that enables them to control and manage their data internally – and share that data to their customer’s supply chain on request.
Label Traxx MIS is a modular system that includes the following features:
• Estimating for flexo, digital, letterpress, and hot foil label presses
• Contact and customer relationship management
• Job status tracking and visual scheduling
• Data collection and profitability analysis tools
• Roll tracking system for raw material inventory
• Purchasing specific to label operations
• Integrated financial modules, operating in real time
• JDF connectivity to Esko Automation Engine
• Electronic links to label-industry suppliers to automate purchasing and inventory management
