What is a labeling machine?

A labeling machine is an automatic or semi-automatic system used to apply pre-printed self-adhesive labels to products, containers, or packages. These machines are commonly integrated into packaging lines, working seamlessly alongside other equipment like shrink packaging machines to complete the packaging process. While semi-automatic labeling machines only apply labels, automatic machines can also print product details such as ingredients, manufacturing dates, expiry dates, and quantities.

What types of labeling machines are available?

  • There are several types of labeling machines, each suited to different packaging needs:
  • Semi-automatic labeling machines: Ideal for small production lines, used for labeling round vials and bottles.
  • Automatic labeling machines: Suitable for labeling the front and/or back sides of oval or square-shaped containers.
  • High-speed vertical labeling machines: Used for vertical label applications on ampoules, vials, and other containers at high speeds.
  • Holographic security labeling machines: Applied for labeling with holographic security labels.
  • High-speed horizontal labeling machines: Designed for wraparound labeling on small-diameter round containers.
  • Cylindrical labeling machines: Used for labeling small, round products like vials, ampoules, and test tubes.
What products can be labeled by these machines?

Labeling machines are used across various industries to label a wide range of products, including:

  • Food and Beverages: Honey, edible oil, fruit juice, wine, etc.
  • Pharmaceuticals: Pharma syrups, dry syrups, hand sanitizers.
  • Cosmetics and Personal Care: Hair oils, shampoo, talcum powder, lip balm, etc.
  • Household and Industrial Products: Lubricant oil, handwash soaps, dishwasher detergents, etc.
  • They can also handle specific labeling needs for canned goods, cartons, and shrink-wrapped products.
What are the advantages of using a labeling machine?

Some key advantages include:

  • Bulk labeling: Machines enable fast labeling in large quantities with minimal errors.
  • Efficiency: They improve labeling speed and accuracy compared to manual application.
  • Cost-effectiveness: A smart PLC touch-screen control system offers optimal control with minimal manpower.
  • High operational speeds: Some machines can label up to 120 bottles per minute.
  • Integrated with other machinery: Labeling machines can work seamlessly with filling, capping, and other packaging machines.
How do labeling machines work?

Labeling machines use a conveyor system to transport products to the machine. A sensor detects the item’s position, and the onboard PLC ensures the label is applied accurately. The label is dispensed from a reel and pressed onto the product by a labeler wheel. The machine is designed to maintain consistent tension and label application speed to ensure precise labeling.

Can a labeling machine be integrated into an existing production line?

Yes, labeling machines can be easily integrated into existing production lines, such as those for liquid filling, powder filling, canning, cartoning, and bottling. This flexibility allows for seamless operation across a variety of packaging processes.
