| With the ever changing packaging requirements today and emerging
new package shapes, new label materials and new applications, automatic
labeling is always a challenging task to the manufacturers. The
Vicmark engineering team has brought with them over 10 years of
experiences in designing solutions for different types of automatic
labeling problems – always in a unique and efficient way for the
customers.
Understanding the unique requirements for automatic labeling
in different industries, the Vicmark engineering team is always
able to solve new application problems with creativity. And by
bringing the experiences across industries, Vicmark even further
brings new application opportunities to the manufacturers, offering
them extra efficiency or benefits with the advantages of automatic
labeling. |

|
 |
Beverages industry – always requires
high speed labeling with high position accuracy. Multiple
labels on a bottle, new bottle shapes and new label materials
etc. are challenges that we need to resolve. |
|
 |
Daily chemicals industry – Soft
tubes labeling and “No label look” labeling are growing requirements
today. We need to meet the challenges to eliminate air bubbles,
achieve high position accuracy and relative registration etc. |
|
 |
Foods industry – The use of multi-layer
labels gives extra promotional space to the foods packager
|
| but at the same time presents new challenges
to the labeler design. |
|
 |
Cards industry – In the personalization process
of cards, a scratch-off panel is always needed for covering
the PIN. Vicmark has |
| developed a scratch-off labels applicator for
the cards industry. By the creativity of the team, a full
integrated line for cards personalization is developed for
the industry offering the all-in-one benefit of feeding, coding,
inspection, labeling, hot-stamping, and collection in one
pass. |
|
 |
Medical supplies industry
– pressure sensitive labels are getting more used in
the industry today. Specially shaped objects that cannot
stand upright, and labels with functional purposes etc.,
all give rise to new challenges that we need to considering
in the materials handling process. |
|
|
 |
Petro-chemical industry –
large size containers are common in the industry. Labeling
position is normally not a major concern but the need
to put a large label on a curved surface in a line of
unstable speed calls for our consideration for extra
power for the label head and how to maintain the label
flat and smooth on the substrate. |
|
|
 |
Plastics industry – With
the emergence of new label materials, labeling is taking
over the traditional silk screening for decorating plastic
bottles and soft-tubes. “No label look” calls for special
considerations from our design team to eliminate air
bubbles. |
|
|
 |
Pharmaceutical industry –
This is the biggest user of automatic labeling. Applications
are normally very demanding in speed and GMP compliances.
Considerations are also given to the upward and downward
integration of the adjacent steps along the packaging,
such as vision inspection for purity and cartooning
etc. |
|
|
 |
Electronics industry – Challenges
we solved include irregular object shapes, very precise
placement accuracy, and printing of variable information
etc. |
|
|
 |
Battery industry – a good
for batteries that we build provide perfect wrap-around,
even heat shrink, and avoid short circuiting etc. |

|
| prints and applies labels simultaneously. It is the
perfect equipment for putting logistics, distribution control, and
anti-counterfeit information on the outer packages. With the use
of barcodes and data exchange with the logistics information database,
it provides an effective basis for distribution control of products. |
|
 |
|
 |
| Distribution control applications
are always tailor made, depending on the packaging and distribution
channel characteristics. An effective solution may always
call for the integrated use of ink jet printers, thermal transfer
printers, printer/applicators, barcode scanners etc.. The
Vicmark engineering team has years of experiences integrating
different product identification technologies to provide effective
solutions for the customers. |
|
The use of RFID is an upcoming trend in logistics
applications. The Vicmark engineering team has started to
add into our label applicator and print/apply products RFID
capabilities. |
