LABELLING PET planet Insider Vol. 19 No. 07+08/18 www.petpla.net 22 With an integrated glue tank, patented vertical melter and heating control, glue is melted on demand and circulated always at a precise temperature and in smaller quanti- ties, increasing the label quality application. This allows for reduced consumption of glue and avoids glue degradation, glue filament, and glue splashing, for better overall quality and improved sustainability. Adhesive labeller The adhesive labeller is designed to apply labels at high speed. It can be equipped with six different carou- sel sizes, up to five labelling stations and 36 configuration possibilities. Able to apply plastic or paper pressure sensitive labels (PSL), it has been optimised to suit the needs of beer, water, food, home and personal care producers. The advanced unwinding, feeding and peeling control, through efficient servomotors, enables greater stability and precision in the labelling process, says Sidel. This allows the machine to handle also ultra-thin labels, down to 25 μ, at speeds of up to 66,000 cph. It also delivers the flexibility that manufacturers need in applying labels to a variety of containers of differ- ent shapes and sizes. The adhesive labeller is equipped with brushless motorisation of the bottle platforms to smoothly handle round and shaped bottles. A vision system can be added for accurate bottle orientation and label positioning. With its stainless-steel structure and components, the EvoDeco Cold Glue labeller is hygienically designed and fully washable. ! ! !!!! ! "# $ ! ""% %$ & '( ) * ) + , -
