Bench-top labeling system for cylindrical and shaped containers

Effortlessly label diverse bottle shapes and sizes with precision, enhancing packaging efficiency and adaptability in dynamic production environments.

Applies Self-Adhesive Labels to Containers

The ET-PRO Labeling Machine from Tenco is a versatile bench-top solution designed to apply self-adhesive labels to a diverse range of container shapes, including cylindrical, square, conical, and uniquely shaped bottles and jars. What sets the ET-PRO apart is its capability to handle multiple labeling formats, making it suitable for industries such as beverage, cosmetic, food, chemical, and pharmaceutical.

This semi-automatic machine provides flexibility with interchangeable positioning plates, enabling the labeling of bottles with maximum precision and minimal error, as low as +/- 3 mm. It’s engineered to accommodate various container materials such as glass, PET, and rigid plastics, and it supports the application of back labels and markers for production batch or expiration dates. The ET-PRO seamlessly integrates into existing production lines with available configurations like thermal transfer markers and ultrasonic sensors for transparent labels.

The machine’s compact size allows it to fit into tight production spaces, offering a maximum production rate of 600 bottles per hour, depending on bottle format. Its electric power supply and low compressed air consumption make it energy efficient. Additionally, Tenco offers customization options with engineering support, ensuring the machine is tailored to specific production needs.
