Labeling system
Precise labeling with Bluhm Systeme
With the new Geset 314 labeling system, Bluhm Systeme aims to offer its customers 100 percent labeling accuracy for oval or conical products.
Oval or conical packaging such as shampoo or shower gel bottles are traditionally held in place by a base and top band during the labeling process. The labeling system applies front and back labels to the products with very high labeling accuracy.
Orbiter modules for greater precision
In order to achieve even more precise labeling, the Geset 314 was equipped with an orbiter module in addition to the base and head conveyor. The grippers of this orbiter correspond to the negative shape of the individual products. Immediately before labeling, the module grips and encloses the approaching pack and, thanks to its individual format, ensures that it is perfectly aligned. The front and back labels are then applied with 100% labeling accuracy.
An individual gripper set is available for each packaging format. To simplify product changeovers and reduce set-up times, specific labeling parameters can be saved in advance in the Geset 314's PLC. The respective parameters such as position, degree of inclination and distance between the label dispensers can be called up at the touch of a button and the system adjusts itself fully automatically to the new labeling situation with the help of numerous small actuators.
Presence check with ejection function
A presence check was installed in the labeling system as an additional safety level. After labeling, this control unit checks the presence and position of the labels. Incorrectly labeled packaging is ejected immediately.
The Geset 314 with orbiter contains two Alpha HSM label dispensers, which are used to label the products on the front and back. Thanks to a separate pre-winding system, label rolls with a maximum diameter of 500 millimetres can be processed. Depending on the product size, the serial labeling system works at cycle rates of up to 120 products per minute.
