Italy's Santa Margherita Installs Sacmi 24-Head Opera 450 Labeling Machine

Santa Margherita has installed a new Sacmi’s 24-head OPERA 450 machine with 6 self-adhesive labeling units at its vineyard in Portogruaro Veneto, Italy.

The machine brings the total number of solutions supplied by Sacmi to the Italian winemaker to four.

The new OPERA 450 is designed to handle up to 12,000 applications per hour on sparkling wines, rising to 18,000 on still wines.

Santa Margherita Group is a producer of brands ranging from the Santa Margherita a Torresella core brand to the Kettmeir, and wines of Tuscan and Mediterranean soul such as Lamole di Lamole, Vistarenni, Sassoregale and Terreliade.

Scheduled to be commissioned by December 2016, the new labeller can manage up to 15 different formats in parallel while ensuring productive continuity by working in a master-slave configuration.

The new labeler designed for Santa Margherita also features an advanced LVS system, which ensures proper bottle positioning at the labeler infeed and correct application of 100% of labels.

Sacmi will also install a laser marker system for the counter-labels, which will indicate the production batch,to meet the customer requirement.

Sacmi said in a statement: “Our goal, in fact, is to become an all-round partner to the wine industry (a key exponent of Made in Italy excellence), which sees packaging and end-of-line solutions as the key to boosting efficiency and competitiveness on both national and international markets.”
