The classification of the labeling machine
There are many materials and shapes of the classification labels of the labeling machine, and there are many types and varieties of the labelled objects, and the labeling requirements are also different. For example: some only require 1 body label; some require double labels; some require 3 labels (body label, shoulder label, neck label); some only require sealing labels; Requirements are also different. In order to meet the labeling requirements under different conditions, there are many kinds of labeling machines. There are differences in the labeling process and related device structures, and of course there are commonalities.
(1)The label materials used by the labeling machine: self-adhesive labels, self-adhesive films, electronic supervision films, barcodes, paper labels, etc. This type of labeling machine is called: self-adhesive labeling machine, paste labeling machine.
(2)Labeling machine can be divided into self-adhesive labeling machine and paste labeling machine according to the type of label.
(3)According to the degree of automation, it can be divided into semi-automatic labeling machine, automatic labeling machine and manual labeling machine.
(4)According to the running direction of the container, it can be divided into vertical labeling machine and horizontal labeling machine;
(5)According to the characteristics of the labeling process, it can be divided into a pressing labeling machine, a rolling labeling machine, a rolling labeling machine, and a brushing labeling machine;
(6)According to the shape of the packaging bottle, it can be divided into square bottle labeling machine, round bottle labeling machine, flat bottle labeling machine and small special-shaped bottle labeling machine, etc., square labeling machine, curved labeling machine, card labeling machine.
(7)According to the length of the label, it can be divided into single-sided labeling machine, double-sided labeling machine, three-sided labeling machine and multi-sided labeling machine. In addition, the material of the packaging container (tin-plated can, glass bottle can, paper box can), the labeling mechanism and the type of adhesive can be classified.
The application of labeling machine
Labeling machines are widely used in the labeling of product packaging containers and boxes in all walks of life.
(1)Beverage industry. The application in the beverage industry requires high speed and accurate positioning, and often one bottle has multiple labels. In addition, the shape and material of the label are often changed, and the position control skills are very demanding when labeling.
(2)Daily chemical industry. The application of the daily chemical industry often changes with each passing day due to the changing shape of the container. The soft-bodied plastic container and the “no-label visual perception” also increase the difficulty of labeling accuracy and air bubble removal control.
(3) Food industry. The competition in the food manufacturing industry is fierce, and multi-layer labels provide manufacturers with more space for publicity and promotion, and also pose new challenges for the design of labeling machines.
(4)Card making industry. The card making industry needs to verify and cover the password while printing the password at high speed in the card making process. However, covering the password with the traditional silk screen or hot stamping method is often the bottleneck of production. At present, designers are boldly trying to design a card production line that integrates coding, testing, and labeling to replace silk screen printing with labeling. Effectively meet the changing production needs of users.
(5)Pharmaceutical industry. The pharmaceutical manufacturing industry is a big user of automatic labeling, and has high requirements for speed. The design of the labeling machine should take into account the integration of the process before and after labeling, and provide additional functions such as light inspection before labeling and automatic human bottle holder after labeling. .
(6)Petrochemical industry. The petrochemical industry often needs to stick product labels on containers such as large barrels and large bottles, and the required speed and accuracy are relatively loose. However, due to the large labels, the power requirements for the labeling machine are relatively high, and large-area labels are attached to the curved surface. , or when labeling the line with uneven speed, keeping the label to show that the flatness is also the designer’s concern.
(7)Battery industry. The battery manufacturing industry has widely used automatic labeling machines for roll-to-roll shrink labels. The labeling machine is required to be able to operate at high speed while ensuring that the interface of the label is flat, taking into account the prevention of short circuits, and at the same time providing the function of label shrinkage.
