Domino Unveils Solutions for Automated Product Printing and Label Verification

Domino Printing Sciences (Domino), a trusted global provider of comprehensive variable data printing solutions, is excited to announce the launch of its new automated product printing and label verification solutions, designed to help manufacturers minimize the risk of costly labeling errors. These cutting-edge solutions from Domino include advanced coding automation software that eliminates the need for manual intervention and integrated machine vision systems that ensure the accuracy of every printed code.

As regulations around consumer product labeling become increasingly stringent, the importance of efficiency and accuracy in product identification operations has never been greater. However, product printing errors due to inefficient processes and over-reliance on manual labor continue to be a major challenge for many manufacturers.

"In January 2024 alone, the FDA issued 19 recalls for food products in the US, with 18 of them linked to labeling errors due to undeclared allergens," says Adem Kulauzovic, Director of Automation at Domino. "These figures underscore that printing and labeling inefficiencies remain a significant issue in many manufacturing facilities, despite recent advancements in product coding automation."

Industry reports echo this concern, with Automate UK’s Industry Insights Survey 2024 revealing that over 81% of industry professionals identified automation as their primary challenge for 2023. Key barriers to adoption include the cost of implementation, lack of internal expertise, and difficulty in finding suitable suppliers.

"Adopting automation can be daunting, particularly when it involves integrating multiple technologies and managing various supplier relationships," Kulauzovic continues. "Our closed-loop solutions are designed to provide the benefits of automated product coding from a single, trusted source, simplifying the process and reducing the costs and complexities associated with lengthy project timelines. Additionally, our flexible financing options—such as subscription models and product leasing—allow businesses to upgrade without significant capital investment."

Domino is dedicated to providing complete end-to-end solutions for variable data printing, enabling manufacturers to focus their resources on creating high-quality, market-ready products. The new offerings include:

• Domino Automation: Centralized message storage and automated printer management software.
• R-Series i-Tech: A label verification and quality inspection system optimized for high-speed production lines.
• Domino’s Cloud-Based Services: Machine monitoring tools for remote diagnostics, troubleshooting, and optimization.

These solutions can be tailored to meet specific customer needs, with each component available as a standalone product or integrated into a comprehensive, closed-loop system.

During Domino’s extended customer testing, the end-to-end product printing and label verification solutions were successfully implemented at several customer sites. The seamless integration of a complete solution from a single provider received highly positive feedback.

"The market has clearly indicated that cost and complexity are major obstacles to adopting automation," says Tony McNulty, Chief Product Officer at Domino. "Our end-to-end solutions are designed to simplify the automation of product labeling, reducing the risk of errors without the burden of managing multiple vendors or conflicting technologies."
