There’s a current trend in the packaging industry towards ever-faster labelling technology. Customers also want stand-out product design and a first-class finish. Highly specialised companies manufacture labelling machines that meet these demands.

However, quality fluctuations in externally sourced supplies (labels and packaging) frequently lead to unwanted side effects that prevent accurate positioning of the labels. The only way to guarantee 100 percent quality assurance here is optical inspection of every part produced.

Examples of labelling technology applications:

• Label checking on a linear labelling machine
• Label checking on a round labelling machine
• Adhesive labelling
• IML labelling
