The working principle, classification and scope of application of the labeling machine

Nov 16, 2022

A labeling machine is a device that sticks rolls of self-adhesive paper labels (paper or metal foil) on PCBs, products or designated packages.

Widely used in beverage, daily chemical, food, medicine, petrochemical and other industries. Labeling of packaging containers and boxes.


With the development of the times, there are more and more types of labeling machines, gradually changing from the backward situation of manual and semi-automatic labeling to the pattern dominated by fully automatic high-speed labeling machines.

The more common labeling machines mainly include:

Round bottle labeling machine, beer labeling machine, semi-automatic labeling machine, labeling machine, automatic labeling machine, self-adhesive labeling machine, sleeve labeling machine, hot melt adhesive labeling machine.


These products can be used for flat surface bonding, single or multiple side bonding of packages, cylinder bonding, partial or full coverage cylinder bonding, groove and corner bonding, and more.


How the labeling machine works

The working process starts with the case being fed into the labeling machine on the conveyor belt at a constant speed. Mechanical grippers separate the boxes by a fixed distance and then push the boxes in the direction of the conveyor belt.


The mechanical system of the labeling machine includes drive wheels, labeling wheels and reels. The driving wheel intermittently drags the label tape to move, the label tape is pulled out from the reel, and passes through the labeling wheel at the same time, and the labeling wheel presses the label tape on the box.


An open loop displacement control is used on the spool to maintain tension on the label web. Because the labels on the tape are closely linked, the tape must be started and stopped constantly.



Classification of labeling machines:

1. According to different gluing methods, it can be divided into: self-adhesive labeling machine, paste labeling machine (paste labeling machine, glue labeling machine) and hot-melt labeling machine;

2. According to the product type, it is divided into: linear labeling machine and rotary labeling machine.

3. According to the realization of different labeling functions, it can be divided into: flat labeling machine, side labeling machine and round bottle labeling machine;

4. According to the degree of automation, it can be divided into: fully automatic, fully automatic, semi-automatic and manual labeling machines;


Labeling machine scope of application:

1. The plane labeling machine is to paste labels and films on the upper plane and upper arc surface of the workpiece, such as boxes, books, plastic boxes, etc. There are two methods of scrolling and sucking, mainly based on efficiency, accuracy and Bubbles requirements.


2. The round bottle labeling machine realizes labeling or filming on the circumferential surface of cylindrical and conical products, such as glass bottles, plastic bottles, etc., and can realize the positioning and labeling of circles, semicircles, circles on both sides, circles, circles, etc. There are mainly two ways of vertical labeling and horizontal labeling.


3. The side labeling machine can label or film the side and side arc of the workpiece, such as cosmetic flat bottles, square boxes, etc. It can be equipped with round bottle labeling equipment to achieve simultaneous labeling of round bottles.
