PPMA 2015: ALTECH presents cutting-edge labelling innovations

At this year's PPMA show which ran from 29 September -1st October in Birmingham, the ALTECH stand was visited by numerous customers and some exciting new leads from different countries.

The most innovative machine presented by ALTECH is a fully automated and equipped ALline paint can labelling system. Smooth and precise, this system performs a complex task:

• registering two labels to the seam of the can - by lifting the handle;

• printing and applying a swatch label.

The sweets produced by Liquid Lens proved very popular. ALTECH had three products on offer: tubes, pots, and pouches.

• The tubes were labelled on an ALline labelling machine with a roller conveyor and an integrated innovative hopper infeed unit;

• the pouches and pots were labelled on a single multi functional ALbelt machine equipped with an ALritma applicator with ICE printer.

The versatility of the ALbelt solution allows Liquid Lens to automatically treat both products - the pouches are fed onto a conveyor (by our new ALfeed friction feeder) while the pots are inducted from a rotary table and labelled with a tamper seal.

The tamper label is initially applied ‘flagged’ on the product and then adapted in ‘watchstrap’ format via simple pneumatic system. The machine is designed to run at a conservative 50-60 p/min to match the rate of other conditioning operations.
