Clear labels need the right sensing method.

Clear labels can be more demanding than paper labels because standard label sensors may not reliably detect the label edge. The correct sensing method should be reviewed against actual label rolls and backing paper.

The bottle shape still determines the labeller route: wraparound for many round containers and front/back labelling for flat, oval or panelled packs.

Buyer questions

Questions before choosing a bottle labeller.

Which bottle labelling machine route is suitable?

The suitable route depends on container shape, label position, label roll, required output and whether the machine is bench-top, compact automatic or fully inline.

What details are needed for a quote?

Bottle or container dimensions, photographs, label size, roll direction, label material, target output and any coding or conveyor requirements are useful for a fast recommendation.

Can clear or transparent labels be used?

Clear labels may be possible when suitable transparent label sensing is specified and tested against the real label material and backing paper.

Can the labeller be integrated into a production line?

Automatic systems can usually be specified with conveyors and surrounding filling, capping, coding or inspection equipment when line details are supplied.
