Understanding the Advantages of Automatic Labeling Machines

1. Understanding the Advantages of Automatic Labeling Machines Has your business reached such a point that your labelling process is blocking you from the next growth? The cost of leaping and automating the label-making is high, but the reward is too. Besides being faster than manual (or semi-automatic) labelling machines, an automatic labelling machine is cheaper, more productive, with higher quality, and with easier production. Find out about the many benefits of an automatic labelling system.

2. ● Speed The most basic automatic labeller has to be at least several times faster than a manual labelling station and twice as fast as the semi-automatic system. In the olden days, automation was considered only when a machine could replace one employee. Even if no workforce reduction or increased line speed is your goal, the return on investment is still excellent. This way, there is great leeway for upscaling production without running into a labelling bottleneck. Before even reaching that point, great ROI can be realized due to rising labour costs, safety issues, and product requirements. ● Accuracy The biggest labelling problem is human error. Applying or using a little bit too little pressure when putting the label can easily misplace it or even peel it off. Getting the container orientation right is easy, but getting it wrong can lead to a mismatch in a label for the wrong position or direction. The errors increase exponentially with the number of labels on a product. Do you need to add expiration dates, barcode labels or other information to your labels? It’s just another line of potential errors. There are ways to check these errors, but they are complicated. Consequently, the simplest solution is to remove humans from product labelling entirely. ● Lower Labor Demands As for labelling, if you have a manual or a semi-automatic labelling machine, you should have at least one employee to label. Using a product labelling machine eliminates the need for labour except to refeed the label reels and check the occasional error. If you have a print-and-apply system, then you also need to replace ribbons, print heads and clear pickets on the printer.

3. ● Flexibility Typically, manual systems are fixed or have a restricted size range of the label. It should also be possible to set up automatic systems for wide ranges of label sizes. It gives you the ability to make use of one machine with different configurations of several different types and sizes of products.
