R321 conical labeling machine

Labeling round products that are conical (tapered) in shape can be a challenge.

The R321 with encapsulator and vacuum transfer grid facilitates the feeding of a crescent-shaped label onto a conical-shaped product, and rotates the product in place to properly apply labels.

The result

A system wrapping a label around conical shaped products at a required rate of 35 products per minute.

This 8 foot long R321 system also includes a stepper driven label applicator, product metering, detection, and automatic speed following. The system is built on a powder coated steel framework on leveling pads and casters.
