CL2 Composite Can Labelling Machine With Knives

The unlabelled tubes are placed in the tube guides that accept up to about 10 tubes. The operator places the unglued label on a feed table and depresses a hand valve. The tube is automatically loaded onto a mandrel, the label is taken automatically over precision glue rollers and via 'pickers' is delivered and applied to the plain tube - the tube is then cut. The cut, labelled tubes are then ejected from the machine and the process is repeated

Options include:

An automatic sheet label feed

A stack of labels is placed on label platform. A line of vacuum suckers takes the top label and presents it to the in-feed rollers and the vacuum is released allowing the label to travel onto the wet rollers, over the pickers and onto the tube. The label platform is automatically raised to maintain a constant height under the suckers. 'Fluffers' blow air through the front of the label stack to ensure each label is separate.

Tube hopper:

This accepts up to 60 tubes which are automatically delivered to the 'CL2' making it a fully automatic machine.

A cardboard tube is loaded from a hopper into the machine, held firmly in place on a mandrel of similar diameter. A pre-printed label is fed into the machine either manually, or automatically. The label is coated with a precise amount of glue then presented to the rotating core to which it is applied. The core may be cut into several sections after which it is then ejected from the machine to be carried away on a conveyor. Waste rings from cut process are ejected separately. The labeled cores (tubes) then go onto to be capped or closed usually for various applications in the market place. These include luxury goods containers, food stuff containers and the original cores may be of sealed or breathable type construction.
