Labeling - so commonplace yet so often ignored.
Just take a moment to think about anything and everything that we use in our daily lives. Which product comes without an informative label affixed on top of it? I don't think there is a single item in the market that is available without proper, standardized labels to convey all the necessary information about it. Not even fruits and veggies.
But even so, how much do we actually know about them? There is so much to the world of labeling that we should take a moment to understand it a bit better. Only then will we be in a position to appreciate this indispensable part of our lives.
? Label applicators come in fully automatic and semi automatic form. They are made to label curved, flat, or any typical shape of the surface of the product.
? There are mainly two types of label applicators available - wipe-on applicator and a pneumatic piston applicator. The wipe-on applicator works with the moving product. It is labeled when the machine rotates the product. These applicators are very fast and efficient. Another is the pneumatic piston applicator. For making use of this machine to apply labels, the product need to remain momentarily stationary.
? One of most widely used labeling machines to print stickers and labels is the label printing machine. These devices can be used for various applications and the machines can be customized to suit various designs according to specific needs. Such devices include:
1. Desktop Printers: One of the most widely used applications of printing is desktop printing. They are commonly used for printing labels for offices where the volume of printing is relatively small.
2. Industrial Printers: These are used for industrial operations for tagging their products and making stickers. Whether it is for product packaging or branding, these printers can manage the task without any hassle due to their high level of working capacity and efficiency in producing required results.
3. Garment Printers: They are used for printing labels on clothes. They are electrically driven, easy to operate, and long lasting.
Then there are various types of label applicators that are used for various purposes. But you also have to understand that no matter how convenient these labels might make our lives, manufacturing and applying them is a tough and expensive process. Many products come with such a layout and structure that it becomes difficult to print over them. In this scenario, specialized labeling equipment is often used to ensure that labels are affixed to even the most difficult forms of packaging.
Labels are widely used in the manufacturing world because of many advantages that they offer - they can fit over any shape or surface, they are more durable, they provide safety to the product and most importantly, they can convey the message more effectively and actively to the user. Important information such as ingredients, manufacturing date, place, pricing, brand information and more is all included and effectively disseminated to the end users of the product.
