Around-corner labeling: labeling products quickly and effectively

What is around-corner labeling?

Around-corner labeling is a process in which a label is applied around a corner of the product. To do this, the label is first applied to a corner of the product and then wrapped around the corner. This process is particularly suitable for products with rounded corners, as the label fits snugly and cannot slip. Especially products that are produced in large quantities and for which high accuracy is required when applying the label are predestined for around-corner labeling.

How does around-corner labeling work?

Around-corner labeling is a special process in which the labels are applied to the corners of the products at a 90-degree angle. The process of around-corner labeling starts as soon as the products are fed into the machine. The products are placed on a conveyor belt that moves them through the machine. As they move through the machine, the labels are applied to the products. The labeling machine has a mechanical arm that applies the labels to the products. The entire around-corner labeling process is a fully automated process controlled by the machine. This process is mainly used for packaging products with corners or edges as it generates a clean and tidy finish.

What are the advantages of around-corner labeling?

• Most effective way of labeling
• Can be performed in fully automatic labeling machines at high speeds
• Allows more labels to be applied to a product than other types of labeling
• Cost effective method of labeling products
• Flexible method suitable for different products and label sizes

What are the disadvantages of around-corner labeling?

• Only suitable for a limited number of products
• Labeling accuracy is not always guaranteed
• The corners can lead to creases in the label
• The corners can tear off when sticking on the label

For which products is around-corner labeling suitable?

Products with square or very rounded edges are best suited for around-corner labeling, as are products that require high precision and accuracy, such as medicines, food, cosmetics, chemicals and other high-value products.

In which industries can around-corner labeling be used?

Around-corner labeling with fully automatic labeling machines can be used in almost all industries where products need to be provided with side labels. These can be, for example, food, beverages, cosmetics, chemicals, cleaning agents, household goods, technical devices, electronic products and many more. In the medical and pharmaceutical industries, around-corner labeling is also widespread, since many medicines and other products in this field need to be labeled with side labels. Furthermore, the logistics industry often uses the around-the-corner labeling process, as many packages and other goods are also provided with side labels.

Can around-corner labeling be used with different labels?

Yes, this can be achieved by a simple configuration in the labeling machine. It is particularly useful when producing a larger quantity of a product with a label shape that requires labeling in a specific area. This is commonly used in the cosmetic, pharmaceutical and food industries where a large quantity of the same product is produced in a specific form, e.g. a cosmetic or pharmaceutical cream.

Is around-corner labeling an efficient process?

Around-corner labeling is an efficient process because it enables high speed as well as precision. The process is usually fully automatic and thus offers high productivity. In addition, it is very flexible and can be adapted to the customer's needs. However, it is important to note that this process is only suitable for a certain number of products.

How fast is around-corner labeling?

Around-corner labeling usually takes about 6-10 seconds. This time depends on what type of labeling machine you choose, how fast your labeling speed is, and how many items you want to label at once. There are some fully automatic labeling machines that can label up to 60 items per minute.

Is around-corner labeling cost-effective?

Around-corner labeling is a cost-effective process in fully automatic labeling machines. By using a fully automatic labeling machine, the time required for around-corner labeling is greatly reduced. Furthermore, the quality of the labels is usually higher because the machine can apply the labels more precisely. Additionally, in fully automatic labeling machines, multiple labels can be applied simultaneously, increasing overall productivity.

However, around-corner labeling in fully automatic labeling machines is not always the most cost-effective method. If you only need a small amount of labels, it may be worthwhile to print and apply the labels yourself. This is especially the case if you only need to print a few different labels. In this case, you can save the cost of purchasing a fully automatic labeling machine.

Is around-corner labeling a useful process?

Around-corner labeling is a method in which the label is applied to a corner of the product packaging. This is a very useful process if you want to label products with corners, as it is very accurate and applies the label perfectly on the corner of the product. Another advantage of around-corner labeling is that it is very fast. This means that you can label your products in less time, which saves you time and money.
