AM Labels introduces automatic packet-feeding labeling system

AM Labels has expanded its portfolio with an automatic packet-feeding system. When connected to the LabelPack Label X JR wipe-on applicator, the new combined system can automate the feeding of packets, pouches, cartons and boxes with the application of labels in a single process.

The combined system has been developed to reduce manual handling requirements and ensure a more consistent, efficient labeling process. A unique benefit of the packet feeding system is the auto-gating system that allows for the labeling of pouches with zip locks, extending the versatility of the feeder labeler.

Designed to support businesses in the food, pharmaceuticals and consumer goods industries, the new packet labeling system can increase the productivity, accuracy and reliability of the labeling process.

In addition to the auto-gating feature, the packet feeder benefits from a large hopper infeed and variable speed control of up to 30 m/min, enabling the handling of a range of packet sizes and thicknesses.

Furthermore, the quick-set hopper guides reduce the setup time to simplify the process of changing material types. The feeder labeler boasts a compact footprint and design, and the range of customizable configurations ensures it can meet a variety of specific application needs.

A key component of the combined system is the fully automatic Label X JR label applicator, designed for labels with a maximum width of 140 mm and lengths of up to 350 mm. The applicator also accommodates label rolls with a diameter of up to 300 mm. It offers advanced features to improve accuracy and efficiency, including automatic label recovery and a liner break alarm that alerts users to any faults with the line.

Tony Mariani, managing director at AM Labels, commented: ‘We're excited to introduce our fully integrated, automatic, packet labeling solution, a unique combination of systems designed to help businesses improve their packet labeling processes. It’s compact and adaptable, simple to set up, and can help companies increase the accuracy and speed of their packet labeling processes. We can also offer demonstrations of our new system to prospective customers at our Technical Experience Centre, showcasing its versatility and efficiency.’
