Labeling Packing Machines covers labelling and the packing stages around it: self-adhesive wrap-around and front and back labellers, sleeve and shrink sleeve applicators, bottle liquid filling and capping lines, inkjet and laser coders, and the conveying, orientation and inspection that keep a label straight and a code legible. A crooked label or an illegible date code is the most visible quality failure a packed product can have, because it is the first thing a buyer looks at.
Label accuracy depends on container handling as much as on the applicator. Bottles have to be oriented, spaced and held steady at applicator speed, and a line that labels well at low speed and poorly at full speed is almost always a handling problem rather than a labeller problem. Code legibility depends on ink matched to the substrate, since a code that wipes off a wet bottle is a failed inspection.
Labelling and coding equipment is tendered as part of bottling and packing lines and separately when labelling regulations change, through food and beverage corporations, water authorities, pharmaceutical and institutional suppliers, co-operative processing centres and projects funded by development banks. We quote against the specification and supply technical compliance statements, label and consumable specifications, origin and warranty declarations, priced spares lists and inspection arrangements.
