Finding a precision, cost-effective desktop solution for challenging shaped oval and elliptical bottles used to be a thankless task! Customers either had to label by hand or invest in large linear machines. ALmatic E is simply clever, using the extremely powerful motion control algorithms of our ALritma labelling head to provide a unique-in-the-market semi-automatic solution for low-volume labelling requirements….
ALmatic E may only be a semi-automatic labelling solution, but this does not stop it from being one of the most technically advanced labelling machines on the market of any type – highlighting the sophistication of our motor control algorithms, and with an adjustable two-position jig, it is perhaps more productive than most people first envisage. In this application,…
Unique, readable barcodes are fundamental ingredients to any automated tote handling system. In this application, we apply and then verify barcode label presence and readability with the ‘just moulded’ tote presented via robot. This unique serial number barcode label then stays with the tote for life, providing it with an identity so it can be used on an automated…
ALcode with Vacuum Belt Applicator offers a host of benefits over other comparable print and apply machines.

This recent installation extended stroke ALcode P pallet labelling machine uses our incredibly well-proven multi-axe movement application system allowing us to apply A5 labels on two pallet faces in a single stop. We have a comprehensive range of pallet labelling solutions for almost any requirement, including an exciting in-house developed ‘full robot’ solution to be released soon! Watch this…
ALcode with ‘air-blast’ applicator is an ideal print and apply solution for bakery products, as demonstrated in this recent video. Like all ALcode machines, the solution offers the ability to change the label data at the touch of a button (e.g. for short batch runs), combined with a non-contact application compatible with the delicate nature of the product, including…
Feeding crash lock boxes is not easy because the shape of the box is not regular, meaning it is difficult to manage any significant stack of boxes, required to make an automatic feeder useful. This print and apply labelling solution presents one of a number of feed concepts we have to solve this challenge, also featuring our ALcode one-to-one…
A shortage of sunflower oil and the profound effect this could have on the food industry is currently dominating the news; see BBC NEWS for further details. In 2020 we supplied this non-stop ALline labelling system to ADM in Erith (featured in the above article) to label large bottles of sunflower oil, which present the difficult combination to handle…
Something a little different from a normal labelling requirement – brand labelling large metal oil drums avoiding the need to have pre-printed drums tieing up stock. This novel solution was conceived and built by our UK team with the concept adaptable to many applications. #drums #barrels #labelling #ALTech #labelingmachine #oil
This recently supplied twin-head print and apply labelling system is one of two units placed with a leading UK manufacturer of insulation products, able to label a wide variety of both rectangular and cylindrical ‘batt packs’ and ‘roll packs’, applying A5 product labels at high-speed and without stopping using manageable size label reels (in terms of weight/operator loading) due…
