Automatic Linear Self-Adhesive Labeling Machine - Overview

This automatic linear self-adhesive labeling machine by CIMEC is designed for precise label application on cylindrical glass bottles. Engineered for inline integration within a used bottling line or new beverage production setup, it delivers consistent performance for beer, wine, and other carbonated beverage applications. The base configuration includes one labeling station suitable for partial or wraparound labels, with automation features that ensure reliable, repeatable results at up to 2,000 bph.

Built on a strong chassis with CE-compliant electrical design, this labeling machine is equipped with stepper-motor-driven stations, a 3.4-inch touchscreen HMI, and inverter-based speed control. It supports a wide range of bottle diameters and heights, making it a versatile solution for industrial packaging and beverage production lines seeking high-quality label placement with minimal changeover time.
