Due to lower storage costs and greater flexibility, more and more manufacturers are processing unprinted tubes and labeling them directly before filling.

Our TEM model was developed for this purpose and is able to label the empty, unsealed tubes around the perimeter. For this purpose, the products are transported via a clocked transport system to the labeling station, where they are first aligned and stabilized using a format-specific mandrel. The model can optionally be expanded to include infeed and outfeed magazines and/or inclined conveyors in the tube filler.

The throughput can be doubled as a double-cycle variant. Special sensor technology makes target labeling possible using print marks or lid features.
