Why hand labelling is still an important and valuable option.
Labelling isn’t just a mundane task of attaching information to products. It’s a critical process that ensures clarity, compliance, and a polished brand presentation. While the industry is dominated by large in-line labelers for years, there’s a compelling case for a handheld label machine.
Where and how does our High-Speed Hand Labeller makes a difference?
“Small” batches
Imagine you’re dealing with a smaller batch or perhaps a test batch. The conventional wisdom might suggest using the tried-and-true in-line labellers. However, these machines, while efficient for large-scale operations, can be impractical and in efficient for smaller tasks. The setup alone for such machines can be time-consuming. This is where handheld labelling machines come into play. They offer a level of flexibility that’s hard to match. Switching out labels is done simply and quickly as there’s no extensive setup required.
Re-work batches
But it’s not just about cost and flexibility. It’s also about precision. Large labelling machines, for all their efficiency, can sometimes get it wrong. And when they do, the error often goes unnoticed until (in many cases) a significant amount of mislabelled products are churned out, leading to wasted resources and time. With handheld devices, errors can be spotted and corrected immediately. In fact, many of our customers use the hand labeller to re-work batches that were not adequately labelled.
Delicate products
Then there are those special products: the products with irregular shapes and or difficult to label.
Handheld electric labelling machine for fruit
This particular label dispenser is designed and build to give you the most robust and efficient tool to apply labels to any sort of fruit (or any other items). A slight tap with the business end of the machine to the product puts a label down and immediately readies a label for the next item.
The intelligence within the machine scans the size of your label and feeds the appropriate amount to present the next label.
The internal 7,4V Lithium battery ensures two days of labeling on a single (two hour) charge. It can put down 5 labels per second which makes 18.000 labels per hour. It is safe to say this labeler is quicker than it´s operator. In short, the machine can take on an impressive workload in your labeling process.
