Performance Features
A color-coded keypad dispenses preset lengths of WAT, so there's no more awkward reaching and stretching around the box with a tape gun. SGS Tests 134992-1 and 149698 show that sealing cartons using the 555 requires less time than applying plastic tape with a hand gun. Adding the AMD automatic measuring device requires even less time. In fact, 28% less time!

Accessories to Optimize Performance
AMD - (Automatic Measuring Device) interfaces with the BP555eSA, BP555eMA and BP55eLA models. This accessory automatically measures a carton and dispenses the correct amount of tape every time. It greatly increases productivity and savings while decreasing tape waste and helps ensure your packages have the professional image you desire.
Code Taper
The Code taper can print custom messages on demand. You might use it to apply codes, date stamps, logos and / or tag lines as the tape is being dispensed. The custom imprinting helps increase security and tracking, while allowing your package to not only carry the brand on the inside but branding your message or company on the outside.
Tape Aerial
The Tape Aerial conveniently and effectively holds the tape in an upright position. This allows the user to use both their hands on a package until they are ready to grab the tape and apply it. The tape Aerial really simplifies the packaging process, all the while speeding it up too.
