Self-Adhesive sticker labeling machine plays very imperative role in contemporary packaging line. This sort of machine generally applies the self-Adhesive label over the container like Bottle, Vial, Ampoule, Jar and many more.
The self-Adhesive label is made of variety of material like chromo paper, super sunshine paper etc. These papers are coated with Pressure sensitive adhesive on one side.
label contain other useful information like manufacture name, Logo, product name, address, product characteristics, barcode (In case of pharmaceutical label, it contains the batch number, Manufacturing date, expiry date) etc. The neatly done labeling gives explicit identification to particular product & subsequently to the company. Thus, it also creates brand awareness & result in to the increasing revenue of the company.
As we understand, sticker labeling machine increase product & company brand awareness so it is also become prudent to choose perfect sticker labeling machine to suit application and it mostly depends upon the following factor:
· Container Size (Preferable diameter and height in case of round container, width and height in case of Flat container)
· Container Shape
· Number of labels to be applied
· Where labels are to be applied
· Speed (Number of containers per minute)
· Automatic / Semi-Automatic
Once the above-mentioned basic information is available then it is easier to gap down the choice of which sticker labeling machine you need. Below is a convenient breakdown of Sticker label machine types:
This kind of machine generally applies single label over container and container are generally round in shape. These containers are like Vial , Glass bottle , Round jar or can be anything. They can apply the label as full wrap, partial wrap and some time over lap as per the requirement. They also referred as round bottle sticker labeling machine. There are various models available in this category and production output grossly depends upon the factors like Label length (mm), diameter of the container as well as overall height of the container. Up to 250 container per minute can be achieved with these models. Example / shape of the containers are as below:

Type of Round bottle for Wrap around Round bottle Sticker Labeling Machine |
As name applies, this kind of sticker labeling machine model usually applies two number of labels simultaneously on front and back side of the container. This kind of container are generally flat, rectangular or oval shape. Here also, various models are available and production output mainly depends upon the factor like label length, shape of the container, width of the container & height of the container. These machines are also known as Flat bottle sticker labeling machine, Double Side Sticker labeling machine etc. Example / shape of the containers are as below:

AUTOMATIC / SEMI-AUTOMATIC
This particular factor is solely on customer requirement. Semi-Automatic sticker labeling machine are generally good for startup companies where production requirements are low but accurate labelling is need of hour. These machines are without the product feeding conveyor & they can’t be integrated either at upstream side or the downstream side. End user has to put the container in labelling machine and label applied. In this type of machine, human intervention is generally high & output is solely depending on human efficiency to put the container in machine and remove the container once labelling accomplished.
Automatic sticker labeling machine comes with conveyor and cab be easily connected to upstream and downstream machine through conveyor. They are mostly used in automated packaging line for getting moderate to high production. Here, human intervention is imitated to Self-Adhesive roll change as well as mass container loading on the product feeding conveyor.

Classification of Injectable Formulation Plant:
These Injectable formulation plants are broadly divided in following section:
LVP |
· Large Volume Parenterals are sterile injectable drugs packaged in containers labelled as containing more than 100 ml · Most are terminally sterilized, but some can be sterilized by filtration and aseptically processed. Example :Glass Bottle Like 100 ml Glass bottle , 250 ml Glass Bottle , 500 ml Glass Bottle and 1000 ml Glass Bottle |
SVP |
· Small Volume Parenterals are sterile injectable drugs packaged in containers labelled as containing less than 100 mL that are terminally sterilized. Example: Glass Vial Like 2ml ,5 ml , 10 ml , 20 ml , 50 ml vial both molded vial as well as Tubular vial |
SVS |
· Small Volume Parenterals are sterilized by filtration and aseptically processed |
SVL |
· Small Volume Parenteral are sterilized by filtration, aseptically filled and lyophilized. |
SLQ |
· Sterile liquid (other than suspensions and emulsions) |
Significance of Vial Capping Machine
· The vial cap provides final closure element of a sealed vial thus warrant the integrity of the drug / medicine.
· The capped vial protects the stopper from outer damage, even as firmly holding stopper in the fully seated sealed position.
· Quality vial capping, which can be helpful to paramedical staff during injection process for smoothly removing the cap without compromising the sterility of drug.
How Typically Vial Capping Machine works?
The basic working of Vial Capping machine is divided among the following assembly of machine.
· in feed conveyor
· Feed worm assembly
· Star wheel assembly
· Vibrator cap feeding unit
· Capping Turret
Load the Sufficient caps in Vibratory Bowl. The Vials are received from in feed of conveyor and moved to feed worm assy through the slat conveyor. Feed worm will create space between two vials, before it is moved in in-feed star wheel.
Vibratory bowl feeds the cap into the cap chute continuously. If there is no sufficient caps in chute, NO-CAP sensor (Fiber optic Sensor) will give signal to control panel & Machine will Stop.
Now, at In feed star vial index further, take a cap from chute and transfer to Main capping turret wheel. capping head & Turret rotate clockwise, move down the cam operated capping head one by one with cap die, hold the vial with cap, rotate further and sealing chuck will make a thread on cap & seal it properly.
After completion of cap sealing procedure at last station, capping head moves up and release the sealed vial. Now at out feed star plate, neat and cleaned capped vials will index further and transfer to discharge end of conveyor.
Finally, vial moves to the other on-line connected machine through the conveyor. Totalizer (Counter) will give information of Total No. of capped/sealed vials.

What is ROPP Cap?
Before understanding ROPP Capping machine or application, it is supremely important to know about what is ROPP Cap.
ROPP Cap is a type of bottle closure & its full form is Roll on Pilfer Proof. It is kind of Metal cap generally made using fine grade of Aluminium as Aluminium imparts the benefit of ductility. It must be frazzled that, in practice, there is no such thing as pilfer proof, only there is tamper evidence & there have been many cases wherein Ropp capped wine bottle later on replaced with cold tea, with no evidence of entry between cap and bottle. ROPP Caps are widely used in a type of industries like pharmaceutical, distilleries, wine and beverage etc.
How ROPP Cap applied?
A ROPP Cap is applied as a cap with cylindrical cross section and no thread. When ROPP Cap applied over bottle at that time, the cap is distorted over the thread of a bottle and base of cap get deformed around securing ring in the bottle neck.
Machinery for applying ROPP Cap:
Machinery which is used to apply ROPP caps is called an ROPP capping machine. There are wide ranges of ROPP Capping machine available & they can be selected based on the output requirement of the production line.
How typical ROPP Capping machine work:
The basic working of ROPP Capping machine is divided among the following assembly of machine.
· in feed conveyor
· Feed worm assembly
· Star wheel assembly
· Cap feeder unit
· Capping Turret
Continuously fed from upstream machine to the in feed conveyor belt of ROPP Capping machine and move further through in feed worm for correct spacing between two bottles and transferred to the in feed star wheel.
Meanwhile, ROPP caps kept in cap feeder unit like orientation unit or vibrator feeder unit which automatically orient caps in right direction before entering into delivery chute. And Bottle is entering below the sealing head, consist of total four rollers.
Two rollers properly Skirts, Spins and Seals the cap and simultaneously another two roller performs perfect threading according to bottle neck diameter.
After sealing operation, ROPP sealing head moves upward with help of cam and bottle move with exit star wheel and Move further on conveyor belt for next operation.
Type of ROPP capping machine in Market:
Today in Industry, ROPP Capping machine are available in various configuration from Semi automatic to Multi head configuration in order to contest production requirement.
