ALTECH solutions for the labeling of food trays

The ALTECH labelling systems of the ALbelt series provide high reliability, solid mechanics and excellent value for money in performance terms.

The high degree of customisation makes it possible to use the ALbelt systems to label a wide range of products. They are suitable for wrap-around labelling of cylindrical products as well as side, top/bottom or C labelling of rectangular or flat products.

In its typical configuration, BT52, the ALbelt system can apply labels to the top and bottom of tubs, trays and packages, which are very common in the food sector.  In the BT52 configuration, the system includes a conveyor transport system formed of two sections, a top and a bottom labelling head (to be chosen from the ALstep or ALritma models) with the label dispenser blade installed in the space between the two sections and, if necessary, a double motorised belt which keeps the product stable during labelling.

The labelling heads can be equipped with a printing kit for variable data, such as batch codes, sell-by dates, bar codes or other information that must be added to the label.

The ALbelt can be equipped with PLC and a 7-inch colour touchscreen panel to centrally manage all the system parameters, thus making the format change operations extremely easy and user-friendly and ensuring the compliance of the machine with Industry 4.0 requirements.

Besides applying one or more labels on several parts of a product, the ALbelt system can take up special configurations for more complex applications – such as placing a label onto another label, applying labels on three sides (c-wrap) – or non-stop configurations with double labelling heads, providing a continuous running solution.
