Label Applicator
The machines used to apply labels to packages are known as label applicators. There are numerous types of label applicators. Some employ manual dispensing. Then there are semi-automatic and fully automated machines.
If your product does not warrant precise label placement, then a simple low-cost label applicator is ideal. This type of machine mainly supplies a partially peeled label and a labourer applies it to the product.
In a semi-automatic label applicator, the labourer positions the product and the machine applies the label in the intended position. The machine is operated by a labourer. Semi-automatic print and apply label applicators are ideal for companies and production units that have a large variety of products. Different types of coding can also be done in this type of label applicators. The machine is operated by a labourer who positions the label on the product.
Fully automatic label applicators are used mainly for labeling large number of products. Physical interaction is minimal in this form of label application. For variety of products in large volume, the ideal choice would be automatic print and apply label applicators.
If you intend to buy a label applicator, it wise to take the advice of professionals. In the United Kingdom, Etiquette has been providing expert independent advice on label application machines, solutions and systems.
