Food Trays: Automate Your Labeling Process with ALTECH ALbelt
From top labeling to C-wrap applications: automatic labeling systems configurable to meet the needs of FOOD INDUSTRY packaging lines.
In the food industry, where productivity, precision, and traceability are essential, choosing the right labeling system means optimizing the packaging process and enhancing product presentation on the market.
ALTECH meets these needs with ALbelt, an automatic labeling system designed to apply labels to trays, containers, and flat packages used for a wide variety of food products, including fresh pasta, meat, salads, ready meals, and many other food specialties.
One Solution, Multiple Labeling Options
Compact, modular, and configurable, ALbelt integrates one or more labeling heads from the ALstep and ALritma ranges, allowing the system to be tailored to specific production requirements.
The system supports several labeling configurations:
o Top and bottom labeling, to apply labels to different surfaces of the package.
o Corner labeling, for applications involving multiple sides of the product.
o C-wrap labeling, ideal for applying a label that seals around the edges of trays and containers.
Thanks to dedicated product handling and application solutions, ALbelt can also be configured to label the underside of packages, expanding its integration possibilities within packaging lines.
Maximum Flexibility for Food Production Requirements
Every production line has its own specific requirements. That is why ALbelt features adjustable and expandable components that allow the system to be adapted to different applications and configurations.
From applying a single label to placing multiple labels on the same product, including more complex applications such as placing a promotional label over an existing one, ALbelt offers the flexibility needed to meet a wide range of production requirements.
For applications requiring uninterrupted operation, the system can also be configured for continuous, non-stop labeling.
Labels and Variable Data: All the Information in the Right Place
To complete the package identification process, ALstep and ALritma labeling heads can be equipped with printing units to print expiry dates, barcodes, and other variable data directly onto the label.
This solution combines labeling and printing in a single process, helping manufacturers manage the information required for food product identification and commercialization.
