Drive Business Growth with Automated Product Labeling

If your products require consistent, pre-printed labeling, a label applicator is a smart investment. These fully automated or semi-automated machines are designed to apply pre-printed labels to products or packaging. They do not print the labels - they simply place them where needed accurately and consistently. 

• Increased Efficiency: Automated systems apply labels faster than manual methods, boosting production throughput
• Improved Accuracy: Machines minimize human error, ensuring precise label placement and correct information such as batch numbers and expiration dates
• Cost Savings: Reduce labor costs, minimize waste from mislabeling, and avoid costly rework or recalls
• Scalability: Easily adapt to growing production demands, perfect for expanding businesses
• Regulatory Compliance: Meet industry standards, especially in sectors like pharmaceuticals and food, with accurate labeling
• Enhanced Traceability: Integrate with business systems for seamless product tracking across the supply chain

1. Assess Your Needs: Evaluate production volume, label types (e.g., barcodes, RFID tags), and product materials to choose the right system
2. Select Software and Hardware: Opt for software solutions like BarTender or Loftware, which offer label design, database integration, and compatibility with existing systems. Select printers and data capture devices that are backward compatible, meaning they will still function when new operating systems are introduced
3. Ensure System Integration: Choose a solution that syncs with your ERP, WMS, or other systems to reduce errors and maximize efficiency
4. Prioritize Compliance: Select systems that support industry-specific regulations, such as allergen declarations or nutritional facts for food products
5. Choose Durable Materials: Use label materials suited to your production environment’s conditions
6. Set Clear Guidelines: Define consistent standards for label creation, placement, and use
7. Enhance Security and Traceability: Restrict template access to authorized users and track changes and print jobs
8. Train Your Team: Equip employees with the skills to use the new system effectively
9. Monitor and Optimize: Regularly audit and refine your labeling processes for continuous improvement
