Roll-fed semi-automatic applicator for cylindrical containers, integrating with labels output from standard roll label printers.
Media Size
Supports label widths from 25 mm to 150 mm and label lengths from 25 mm to 500 mm.
Media Weight
Uses standard roll-fed label stock with reliable gap detection via an ultrasonic sensor. No specific micron rating is listed.
Media Properties
Compatible with a wide range of label materials suitable for cylindrical containers, including paper, film and thin media thanks to ultrasonic gap sensing.
Container Size Range
Handles containers with diameters from 25 mm to 160 mm and lengths from 80 mm to 240 mm.
Application Capability
Semi-automatic application of single or dual labels to cylindrical containers with push-button or foot-pedal operation.
Push-button or foot-pedal control for repeatable label application
The A200 makes cylindrical container labelling more repeatable and less tiring than hand application. Operators can apply labels using the push button or the included foot pedal.
This makes the machine practical for small teams producing short-to-medium batches where consistent label placement and professional presentation matter.
- Designed for bottles, cans and jars
- Applies one or two labels per container
- Control with push button or included foot pedal
- Supports short-to-medium batch workflows
- Improves alignment compared to hand application
- Helps reduce operator fatigue
Reliable detection across a wider range of label media
The ultrasonic media sensor can be trained to detect gaps in a wider range of media than mechanical flag sensors commonly used in other applicators.
This helps the A200 perform consistently, even on thin materials, allowing labels to be applied evenly, efficiently and with consistent accuracy.
- Reliable ultrasonic gap sensing
- Suitable for thin media
- Supports paper and film label materials
- Helps improve placement accuracy
- Supports wrinkle-free application
- Designed for consistent cylindrical labelling
Save and recall up to 10 preset configurations
A convenient online calculator tool is included to quickly and accurately determine spacing values for front-and-back labels, such as those commonly used on wine bottles.
These values can be entered, saved and recalled with the intuitive LCD display. Up to 10 preset configurations can be saved on the A200.
Front-and-Back Labels
