Prime Label Applicator

The compact powerhouse for primary labelling.

Prime is built for production lines that refuse to stand still.

It delivers dispensing speeds of up to 40m/min as standard, providing the capacity required for a large proportion of applications in a compact, accessible machine. Its real advantage becomes clear when products or pack formats change.

As an optional configuration, recipe-driven setup can store product settings and adjust the conveyor speed, sensor timing and guide widths for different products and formats. Additional line-level control can also automate changes to connected equipment, reducing the manual work involved in each changeover.

Prime is small enough to integrate seamlessly, but smart enough to scale. From bottles and other containers to packs, boxes and more, Prime can be configured for a wide range of products and pack formats, giving manufacturers the speed, flexibility and automation to keep a complex product range moving.

About Automatic Label Application

What are Label Applicators used for?

An automatic label applicator is a labelling machine used to put a label on a wide range of packaging types for many different products, typically a box, case, shrink-wrapped pack, pallet, drum or other similar cylindrical products.

Label Applicators can form part of a print and apply label machine, or be used solely for pre-printed label application on a production line. You can learn more about the different application methods here.

What are the Benefits?

Automating your product labelling has a range of benefits for your packaging lines. This includes:

  • Improving the speed of labelling
  • Reducing placement errors
  • Increasing overall packaging line efficiency
  • Saving costs on label application

Automatic labelling delivers exceptional results for every production line, from small to large. Offering precise, high-speed label placement and minimising the impact of human error, they can transform the whole label printing and application process.

What Components Make up a Label Applicator?

Label applicators comprise an application cylinder or labelling head, a media handling facility, a user interface and sometimes a conveyor to move the material through the machine and onto the product. These parts work together for efficient automatic label application.

The Cobalt Prime comes equipped with the following:

  • Integrated colour touchscreen controller for machine status and settings
  • Simple numbered media path for ease of label roll loading
  • Adjustable beak angle for top, side and bottom application
  • Servo-controlled drive for accurate label placement at high speeds
  • Single product sensor input and outputs for beacon stack and user controls
  • Compatible with Cobalt standard floor stands
  • Optional encoder control to synchronise application speed with product movement
