A brief description of labeling machines for bottles

Earlier, the labels on the bottles were applied without the machinery of the bottle label applicator since the demand for the bottles were less and it was also much manageable. Now since the demand is more and is also increasing by the day, the labels are now applied thus with the help of the label applicator.

There are many big and small scale industries that make use of the labeling machine for applying the bottle labels on the bottles. These machines are great since they apply the labels at the exact position of the bottles. The machine is also easy to operate and also quite light weight and portable to carry. They can label bottles of all kinds, shapes, and sizes.

The process by which such labeling machines work is that the bottles are fed through a conveyor belt at first. The picking of the labels and gluing them from the stacking container to that on the bottles is done by the labeling machine. The machine is designed in such a manner that it places the label in a uniform manner and on an accurate position of the bottle. This entire process by the labeling machine ensures that the overall operating cost of labeling is reduced to a great extent.

The machine applies single labels, back and front labels, along with the wrap around labels. Some of industries that make use of such machines include the food and beverages, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and the chemical amongst host of other small scale industries.

There are also manual bottle labeling machines available in the market which can be used for labeling the cans, bottles, jars, and all other kinds of cylindrical bottles. These are such machines that do not require any regular maintenance. It can also easily label all cylindrical bottles varying from sizes 0.5 inches to that of 6.5 inches. The only drawback for such manual labeling machines is that they are constructed with heavy duty metal and are thus not portable.

There are many kinds of labels that are usually pasted on the bottles. For instance, the wrap around labels is the ones that are suitable for the round necked bottles and also the cylindrical ones. The machines that install the wrap labels are also easy to operate and can be controlled with the help of the computer. They are also user friendly. The machine is made from aluminum alloy and stainless steel and thus they are rust free and low maintenance.

The automatic bottle labeling machines are super fast in their task and they are very reliable and also efficient. There is safety system available for stopping the machine in case any bottle gets into the safe zone of the conveyor belt. This helps in avoiding any kind of damage to the products. This also saves in terms of labels. Since these machines are automatic, they come with full gear drives and thus they are also low maintenance products. Such automatic machines are also very suitable for the overlap labeling.
