Krones DecoBloc labeller

The Krones DecoBloc is a labeller that can cope with all dress variants.

Using this labeller, it will be possible to create a monobloc configuration synchronising a modularised labeller featuring a Sleevematic carousel, a Shrinkmat tunnel and a Linadry unit for pre-drying the containers. Users can then use this monobloc to run all the labelling processes in common use, providing enhanced flexibility. Whether it’s cold glue, pressure sensitive, hot melt or also shrink and stretch sleeves - all these labelling processes can be speedily performed with this unit.

The docking stations feature motorised height adjustment, so that, irrespective of the floor level involved, the labelling stations can be swiftly prepared for a product changeover at the touch of a button. Different machine sizes offer outputs of up to 72,000 containers an hour. Servomotors are used to ensure maximally accurate dress positioning. For sleeving applications, moreover, there is a choice between shrink-sleeve labels with a downstream Shrinkmat tunnel or stretch-sleeve labelling. There is also an option for camera-based alignment of the containers on an embossed marking or a container contour, thus ensuring that the labels or sleeves are optimally positioned in relation to the bottle.
