Labelling machines - Eliminate manual labelling and streamline your production

Speed ​​up production with a smart labelling machine

Efficiency that is immediately noticeable

One of the biggest advantages of labelling machines is their ability to automate labelling. Labels are applied quickly, evenly, and in a consistent flow, which increases throughput and frees up time in production. For companies with high volume production, this is invaluable.

Precision on every product

With a labelling machine, labels are placed with exactly the same accuracy every time. This gives a uniform and professional impression on every package, regardless of quantity. The machine's consistent precision is difficult to achieve manually and creates a reliable result that lasts over time.

Customizable to your needs

Labelling machines are built to handle a wide range of products and labels. They work on everything from flat surfaces to rounded bottles or cans, and settings can be adjusted to suit varying sizes and shapes, making them ideal for businesses with a mixed product range or varying production.

Quick changeover between products

When handling multiple product variants, it is an advantage to be able to easily change settings on the machine. Many models are designed to be quickly adjusted when changing products, both in terms of label layout and size. This makes it easy to work with different batches or parallel product lines, without losing momentum in production.

How does a labelling machine work?

Labelling works differently depending on the model. Some labelling machines work fully automatically in the production line, while others are powered by both machine power and manual handling. What they have in common, however, is that the labelling is accurate and consistent. Many machines can also print labels with information in real time and place them where they are needed. With the right settings, the system can be adapted to label size, product shape and production rate.

Labelling machines for various industries

Today, labelling machines are an essential part of many industries, such as the food industry, where correct labelling of ingredients and best-before dates is a requirement, and the logistics sector, where barcodes and shipping information make products traceable throughout the supply chain. They are also used throughout the pharmaceutical industry, as each package needs clear information about dosage and serial number. In e-commerce, they are used to handle large volumes and provide each product with a unique label, so that they can reach the right customer on time.

Labelling Machine: An Overview of Different Machine Types

A labelling machine is used to apply labels with consistent precision, both for small series or continuous production on a large scale. However, the technology is available in several different designs and can be adapted to both the production environment and labelling requirements. Here we go through some of the most common machine types, and what they can be suitable for.

Automatic labelling machines: 

Automatic labelling machines are ideal for high-volume, high-speed environments. They can label thousands of units per hour and operate continuously without stopping between batches. These machines are often built directly into existing production lines and require only supervision rather than constant handling. The labelling is smooth and consistent, making them particularly suitable for industries where every second counts, such as food, beverage, logistics and manufacturing.

Print & Apply machines: 

Print & Apply machines do both – they print labels in real time and apply them directly to the product or packaging. This can include barcodes, batch numbers or other product information that must be unique to each unit. The systems are useful when the labelling needs to be updated continuously, and are therefore common in e-commerce, pharmaceutical production and traceability requirements. They make it easier to handle products with varying content or labelling that changes daily.

Semi-automatic labelling machines: 

For businesses that work on a smaller scale or with varying products, semi-automatic machines can be a convenient alternative. Here, the labelling is done using the machine, but the operator feeds the product manually. This makes the job more accurate, as you have full control over the process. This type of solution is often used by manufacturers of craft products, small batches or special packaging where flexibility and presence in the process are still important.

Pallet labelling machines: 

When you need to label larger units such as pallets, containers or heavy cartons, you need a machine that is robust and can handle tougher conditions – and that is exactly what pallet labelling machines are built for. They handle large labels and can be adapted to different surfaces and heights in warehouses, distribution terminals or wholesale environments, for example. The information printed is often important for tracking, transport or receiving. Here, it is necessary that the label is attached properly, even in dusty, cold or humid environments.

How to adapt and integrate the machine into your production

Starting to use a labelling machine in your business doesn't have to be complicated at all. The process can be divided into three clear steps, where we go through needs assessment, installation and fine-tuning.

1. We analyze your labelling needs: First we look at what needs to be labeled – what labels are used, how many units pass through per hour and what the production line looks like. This gives us a good basis for choosing the right type of solution.
2. We help you choose a machine: Depending on whether you have continuous production, smaller batches or varying products, there are different options to match different needs. If you want, we can show you some of our labelling machines in operation and how we can tailor them based on your requirements and wishes.
3. We install and test run the machine: Once the right machine is in place for your production, our technicians ensure it seamlessly integrates with existing equipment and is adjusted to provide precise application, ensuring that your labelling runs seamlessly from the start.

Many modern labelling systems are also designed to be easy to update or adapt when changing products. Features such as software-controlled settings and easy connection allow the machines to be quickly adjusted, allowing you to quickly change settings without stopping production for longer than necessary.
