Today’s Label Print-and-Apply Systems have extraordinary capabilities. They are rugged and robust and ideal for industrial use. Print and Apply systems are capable of printing anything that a desktop printer can, they can keep up to high speed production lines, are robust enough to run 24 hours a day - 7 days a week, and are easily maintained for maximum uptime. Carton labels can be side applied, front applied, side and front applied or corner wrapped. Labels can even be top applied at high speeds on variable height boxes. A packing slip tag showing the contents of a carton can be printed on double sided tag stock and deposited into the carton. For brand protection, we can provide several tamper proof label print & apply solutions, the list goes on and on...

Carlisle Technology can supply label applicators with almost any print engine on the market, however, Carlisle has partnered with Datamax to supply the industry with applicators that utilize the strengths and innovation built into Datamax’s print engines.


The new Datamax A-Class family of print engine products are designed to include some of the most innovative features ever found in a print and apply engine. These massive stainless steel workhorses are intended to be an invisible piece of a bigger part of production equipment, facilitating the process of finalizing production through package identification. The A-Class consists of both 4-inch and 6-inch wide print engines with 203, 300, 400 or 600 dpi resolution available in both right and left hand models.

The Datamax A-Class, as a stainless steel product, is designed to address the specialized corrosion resistant needs found in applications such as the food processing industry. The A-Class was developed for demanding multi-shift, mission critical applications that require optimal throughput from an easy to operate, highly durable print engine.

The A-Class utilizes the same electronics card cage design as is found in the popular Datamax I-Class Printer Family. This enables our customers to maintain one inventory of spare parts for their shop floor printers and print and apply systems – not one for the printers and one for the applicators!

In addition to a graphical display control panel, the A-Class also includes the Datamax/MCL client which enables truly intelligent applications to be hosted within the A-Class itself.

Carlisle is one of the only Datamax Authorized Service Centers (DASC) in Canada.
