Simulator Wheel

Simulation Wheel – Prove Your Application

A long standing staple of our UK demonstration machine range is ‘the wheel’ – or more specifically – the simulation wheel. This is an extremely useful device which we can use to simulate a continuous line operation and product flow, and check the real performance of our machines to leave nothing to doubt. Normally, this unit mounts an ALritma…


Felt Label Application

ALline Horizontal with Felt Labels

When is a label, not a label? Quite often, as it happens, as exampled here with felt material, applied to provide sound deadening to an automotive part and replace a completely manual process with profound productivity improvements! Our label applicators are regularly used to apply specialist materials in assembly processes, that might not initially be considered as possible to…


Non-Stop Tamper and Body Labelling Machine for Jars

‘L-seal’ and ‘Watchstrap’ tamper labels are increasingly replacing shrink sleeves on jar products due to customer efforts to reduce plastics. Our highly innovative rotary adaption solution allows these labels to be applied and perfectly adapted at high speed, further complemented via the possibility of a non-stop, continual running, dual-head machine configuration, as shown here on a uniquely configured ALline…


Epson C6500 with ALwrap

Directly Connecting a Printer to ALwrap (Thermal Transfer Printers and Colour Inkjet Printers) – as an Alternative to a Dedicated TIJ Batch Code Printer

ALwrap is a sophisticated, yet easy to operate, desktop labelling machine. It uses the same fundamental stepper motor control cards as our high-level labelling machines, and this control allows it to not only complete some applications other desktop machines cannot, but also, where desirable, to directly connect a compatible I/O equipped industrial desktop thermal or even colour printers from…

ALfeeder Extended Chute with ALritma Labelling Head

Our demonstration ALfeeder with extended chute and ALritma labelling head is ideal for cards, cartons, and similar flat-even products. It provides an extremely economical offline feed and labelling system with a simple collection bin. On demand, it can also be fitted and seen with a TIJ (thermal inkjet) coding unit. Some examples of the system in operation are shown…


ALline 3 Roller Registered Body and Angled Lid Labels

In this interesting vitamins and supplements application, we were tasked to place a body label in rotational registration with the angled cap of the container – and then a further lid label on this angled section of the cap. Most will probably have seen the container in a leading high-street pharmacy business with branches throughout the country. There were…
