VAL550 – Labeling Machine

  • Ampoules Labeling
  • Carpoules Labeling
  • Syringe Labeling
  • Vial Labeling
  • Outputs up to 600 c.p.m
  • Accurate label application
  • Gentle container handling
  • Extreme versatility for different applications

Containers are fed either from trays (off-line operation) or automatically from upstream machinery (on-line operation) to the VAL550 infeed starwheel. Container flow is controlled via a simple ‘blade’ gating assembly. Containers pass to the labeling point, a sensor triggers the label feed, the leading edge of the label is driven off the backing web at a linear speed which matches the container speed. This ensures smooth, accurate placement on the container surface. The container, gripped between an applicator belt and presser pad, is controlled as the entire label is pressed firmly in place, ensuring high registration accuracy.
