How to adjust a labeling machine with poor accuracy

When we useLabeling machinelabeling machines, poor labeling accuracy often occurs, and it easily affects the appearance of the label, so the problem should be corrected promptly. What causes poor labeling accuracy, and how should it be adjusted? Below we use the automatic flat-surface labeling machine as an example.

Generally, poor labeling accuracy has three main categories of causes:

First category: mechanical causes

Mechanical causes are divided into static and dynamic:

a. Static causes show up as the labeling head wobbling. Solution: tighten the labeling head and adjust the mounting base to secure the head and eliminate the wobble.

b. Dynamic causes: 1. The product shakes on the conveyor. Solution: reduce the guide clearance to prevent the product from shaking on the conveyor. 2. Label dispensing must match product speed. Solution: adjust the pulling frequency or the conveying speed so that the label is dispensed exactly when the product reaches the labeling position.

Second category: electrical causes

Electrical causes include detection and power:

a. Detection causes: 1. The stop position is inaccurate. Solution: reset the label sensor so that the labeling machine stops dispensing after the label is applied. 2. Product detection is inaccurate. Solution: adjust the product sensor and amplifier so that products to be labeled are detected accurately and labels are dispensed accurately.

b. The common power-related cause is abnormal transmission. Solution: check and tighten the transmission components to ensure normal operation of the labeling machine.

Third category: product causes

Product causes involve both the label and the product:

a. A common label problem is that label spacing does not meet requirements. Solution: use labels whose spacing meets the requirement.

b. A common product problem is excessive dimensional tolerance. Solution: check and adjust product dimensional accuracy so that the label is applied at a fixed position on the product.
