Two Similar but Different ALritma Labelling Head Integrations on Packaging Machines for Elongated Building Products

Installations in Focus – Two Similar Yet Different Labelling Head Integrations with Packaging Machines πŸŽ₯

This short video shows two recent ALritma labelling head integrations completed within the same month – both mounted to packaging machines applying labels to cladding panels and skirting boards as they’re placed into protective sale packaging.

At first glance, the two setups look almost identical – but they operate very differently:

πŸ”Ή One runs at variable speed with individually defined packs, using a breakbeam photocell for label triggering.

πŸ”Ή The other outfeeds butted products, requiring a more inventive approach – taking a volt-free contact from the packaging jaws instead.

In both cases, integration was straightforward thanks to the versatility of the ALritma head and its advanced control functions, including:

– Product tracking

– Shift register input management

– Precise label delay control (in millimetres)

Different applications, same outcome – simple, reliable integration and accurate labelling.
