It depends entirely on the model and marking method.
Both of our pallet labelling machines have a print speed of 400 mm/s, but the application itself differs quite significantly. Legi-Air 4050 E2A can label up to 420 pallets per hour with 2-sided labelling, which corresponds to seven pallets per minute. Legi-Air AP182 However, it marks 90 pallets per hour with 3-sided marking and 120 pallets per hour with 2-sided marking.
Yes! There are solutions for 1-, 2- and 3-sided labelling, allowing you to choose exactly the level of visibility and traceability that your business needs.
GS1 specifies, among other things, that a pallet label must contain the SSCC number (Serial Shipping Container Code), any GTIN, batch/lot number, number of items on the pallet, and recipient and supplier data.
Both of our models meet all international GS1 requirements for logistics labelling.
Both of our pallet marking models are flexible and can be used for both stationary and moving pallets. Moving applications place slightly higher demands on synchronization, application technology and system response speed, but both machines are designed to handle this without compromising accuracy or reliability.
Absolutely! Our pallet labelling models are flexible and can handle different pallet heights, lengths and widths, as well as different label sizes.
Modern pallet labelers often have protective stands, photocells and alarms in case of label shortage or misplacement.
Our pallet marking machines have photocells, light barriers and alarms that alert you if something is missing or goes wrong in production. Because AP182 Compact and self-sufficient, it does not require protective fences or barriers, saving both costs and space.
Both of our pallet marking machines are CE marked and GS1 compliant, which means they meet European safety requirements for machinery and follow international standards for traceability and labelling.
Place the pallet labelling machine at the conveyor line, connect to electricity and compressed air, and fine-tune the pallet height and position. Once the marking data is configured, you can do a test run to ensure everything is working properly. If you want to know more in detail, you can book a demo and we will go through everything.
The total cost consists of initial investment, operation (electricity and air), label consumption, maintenance, service agreement, possible downtime costs and future upgrades. We offer both leasing and rental if you are looking for a more cost-effective solution.
Yes! Modern pallet labelling machine systems can be integrated with automation systems, robots and AGV flows to automate the entire marking and transport chain.
The working environment affects both the adhesion of the label and the operation of the machine. Dust, moisture, low/high temperatures or vibrations can have a negative effect if the machine is not designed for it.
Some systems can combine label application with direct printing (such as inkjet or laser) for variable data or more extensive markings, but the basic form is Print & Apply via label. Therefore, it is smart to check which option suits your production
Pallet marking machines are designed for many years of operation, but the lifespan is affected by operating hours, maintenance, environment and load.
Industries with large volumes, a high degree of logistics and traceability requirements – such as warehouses, distribution centers, food, pharmaceutical, construction and manufacturing industries – often benefit the most.
Pallet labelling machines automate the labelling of pallets in warehouse and logistics environments. These machines are used to apply labels to the side of pallets or larger packages with barcodes, QR codes or other important information that facilitates traceability, inventory management and transportation. By integrating pallet labelling into your production line, you can streamline labelling and ensure that each pallet is correctly identified and traceable throughout the supply chain.
Technically, pallet labelling often uses a combination of advanced print & apply techniques and rolling conveyor belts to ensure that each label is placed in the exact right position, regardless of the size or shape of the pallet. You enter the relevant data into the system, which is then printed and applied directly to the pallet.
Automated pallet labelling can reduce manual handling, increase productivity, and ensure that labelling is always accurate and durable. This is especially important in large warehouses and distribution centers where pallets must be labeled quickly and accurately to avoid delays and errors.

Service, spare parts and support
Scalability for the future
The number of sides you want to label will affect your machine choice. For double-sided pallet labelling – for example, short side and long side – Legi-Air 4050 E2A an excellent choice. It is also easy to adjust for single-sided labelling.
For marking three sides (side, front and back) is Legi-Air AP182 ideal. It uses a flexible applicator arm that can be easily reconfigured for single or double-sided labelling as needed. This provides the best possible coverage in logistics flows where pallets are handled from multiple directions.
Integrating pallet marking early in your logistics or production flow offers great benefits. Our modern systems can be connected to both WMS, ERP and other automation equipment such as conveyor belts, AGVs and robots.
When the systems communicate, labelling, data collection and tracking are all done in one flow. Label data is automatically retrieved, barcodes are updated in real time and status is sent back – resulting in less manual handling and higher accuracy.
Many environments have high demands. Our pallet marking systems are built to handle:
Low temperatures: Some models can withstand temperatures down to –30 °C without labels or electronics being negatively affected.
Dust: Robust enclosures protect the applicator in tough environments such as sawmills or building materials warehouses.
Vibrations: Stable construction and correct assembly ensure that the marking maintains consistent quality despite surrounding movements from, for example, forklifts or conveyor belts.
Here are some common pitfalls and how you can avoid them:
Incorrect label placement: The label must be positioned correctly to be scanned. Ensure correct setup and sensors.
Insufficient capacity: Undersized systems quickly become a bottleneck. Plan for current and future needs.
No integration with WMS/ERP: Without integration, traceability will be lacking. Choose systems with open interfaces and prioritize early integration.
