Print & Apply Systems for Automated Product Labelling

Print and apply systems are used to print information and apply it to a product or package in a single operation. These systems consist of a label applicator fitted with a printing device. In many applications, CIJ (Continuous Inkjet) printers or hot foil coders are used depending on the coding requirements and production environment.

They are commonly used where variable data such as batch numbers, expiry dates, barcodes, serial numbers, or product information needs to be updated during production. These systems are often integrated into packaging lines to automate product identification and labelling processes. Depending on the application, labels can be applied to cartons, cases, bottles, pouches, trays, and other packaging formats.

Print and apply equipment is used across a range of industries including food, beverage, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, logistics, and manufacturing. By combining printing and label application into one process, these systems help maintain consistent label placement and support traceability requirements.
