Side labeling

Excellent two-sided labeling with solutions from HERMA

 

Two-sided labeling is often used to mark food packaging, cosmetics and household products, glass and plastic bottles or cartons, etc. with variable data such as MHD, batch no. or ingredients. It doesn't matter whether flat folding boxes, square cartons or oval formats, as are often used for bottles: For sales at the point of sale, the visual impact and therefore the perfect, wrinkle-free fit of the labels is of great importance. Our HERMA labeling solutions have the necessary flexibility and are used all over the world across industries. Do you require high throughput and at the same time have little space available in your production? This is where our two-sided labeling machines come in! They are extremely robust, versatile and offer industry-specific equipment options that leave nothing to be desired.

This is what matters in side labeling

[Translate to English:] HERMA Seiten-Etikettierung Etikettierlösungen mit Seitenführung

With the frequently used two-sided labeling, exact centering at the moment of the labeling process is useful. For smaller production quantities, this is most easily done using a semi-automatic solution: the product is simply placed in a pickup device and then manually pushed between two applicators on a carriage. At the moment of dispensing, the product is automatically fixed in place. The result is precisely placed labels. There are practically no limits to the size of the products - only the pickup device has to be adapted. The holding device for the products can be exchanged in just a few steps, ensuring short makeready times even with changing pack shapes.

For medium and large production volumes, it is advisable to use an automatic system that can also meet the highest precision requirements if necessary. Here, a special form of centering ensures the exact positioning of the labels in the insert. With the HERMA labeling machine, the product is also fixed and centered during the labeling process. For this purpose, the machine's special centering device moves synchronously with the conveyor belt. In contrast, the precise alignment of the product and the labeling process are usually carried out in two separate operations. Even with a minimal change in position between the centering and labeling processes, the product can therefore change its position, unlike with the HERMA solution - with visible consequences for the precise "fit" of the labels. 

Whether primary or secondary packaging: HERMA has an economical, high-performance system for every application.

In a nutshell: What should be considered for two-sided labeling?

  • Short makeready times: Even with frequently changing formats, short makeready times must be ensured for an efficient production process
  • High-performance systems: For many high-volume consumer products or small-format products, high throughput and high speed must be possible.
  • Precise feeding: In automatic systems, the product is guided either by driven side belts or by special guide rails. These must be flexible and precisely adjustable and adaptable to different sizes and product types.
  • Practical integration options: It must also be possible to easily add pressure, control and ejection devices to the corresponding systems.

This makes HERMA labeling machines the preferred solution for side labeling

  • Flexibility, high cost-effectiveness with an excellent price-performance ratio

HERMA offers compact and stable labeling machines that operate with virtually no format parts and yet cover a very wide range of product formats. This means that different product formats can be set quickly and easily for flexible, fast and simple changeover for accurate side labeling. High cost-effectiveness combined with low investment costs make HERMA labeling machines a favorite for a wide range of tasks thanks to their excellent price/performance ratio - thanks to their modular design, they can also be delivered particularly quickly. On request, our labeling solutions can be easily converted to wrap-around labeling for even more application possibilities - a machine for full flexibility in your production.

  • Absolute Performance and Precision with High Throughput in Continuous Use

Two HERMA 500 high-performance applicators with movable peel plate ensure absolute performance and precision combined with high throughput - even in continuous operation! The product is guided by side belts, which can also be used as belt separators, or chain aligners, which correctly align the products before they are taken over by the upper belt for subsequent labeling in order to avoid any skewed placements and offers optimum product alignment and stabilization.

  • Highest product quality thanks to industry-specific equipment options

Added to this are industry-specific equipment options that leave nothing to be desired. As an option, difficult product shapes can be precisely labeled in the centered state. Handwheels with digital position displays enable optimum settings to be reproduced at any time. For the highest product quality thanks to various print and label presence checks in conjunction with bad label return and product rejection, and to print variable data, a hot stamping or thermal transfer printer can be easily integrated.
