WLS labelers for the spirts industry…? WLS wrap around labelers are known throughout the pharmaceutical industry.
The WLS VR-72 in-line roller trunnion labeler is the perfect fit for round cylindrical products. Typically, this includes vials, syringes, ampules, and small bottles related to pharma applications, but this also includes round cylindrical bottles for the spirits industry.
A variation of applications
WLS has installed labeling equipment for spirits bottles — glass and plastic — from 50 mL to 1.5 L, at speeds above 500 BPM. The small footprint and minimal product pitch on the VR-72 makes this the ideal choice when compared to much larger rotary labelers that are typically used for bottling lines. The VR-72 is much simpler to set-up and operate with only one change part (infeed screw) as compared to many complex change parts when using a rotary labeler for the same spirits application.
Front and Back
Another unique differentiator for the VR-72 is the ability to place both front and back labels onto a bottle with a single label head. This eliminates the need for a large and complex rotary labeler while also simplifying the label set-up, being a single label roll on a single label head. This reduces inventory and eliminates label unwind copy issues for the operator.
