Maintenance and Care for Your Labeller

Regularly cleaning and maintaining your labelling machine will ensure your equipment lasts for many years, providing an excellent return on your investment.  Even if you’re not an expert on labelling machines, maintenance is straightforward.  Checking the different parts of your labelling machine can prevent issues from arising. For example, if adhesive residue builds up on the label applicator, it can cause labels to misalign or gather, leading to product waste due to mislabelled containers.

How to Clean

Knowing the key components of your bottle labelling machine is essential for proper cleaning. Before you start, always disconnect the machine from any power source to avoid injury. When cleaning, gently wipe the exterior with a towel to prevent moisture from entering the control box.

The Wrap Station

The wrap station adheres labels to your bottled products and is prone to getting messy. The back plate, where labels often stick if not cleaned regularly, can cause mislabelling. Gently wiping the back plate with a towel and some adhesive remover or rubbing alcohol can quickly get your machine back on track. Avoid roughly removing adhesive, as it could damage your machine.

The Label Head

The label head is another essential part of the machine. Like the wrap station, labels can stick to the label head during printing. Using the same wipe-down method as above will keep it in good condition. Additionally, label heads have sensors that are critical to the system. Gently cleaning these sensors will keep them functioning correctly.  The key to effective machine maintenance is ensuring that all surfaces are smooth and free of residue.

Preventative Measures

Maintaining and cleaning your labelling equipment ensures your production line runs smoothly. Understanding how your machine operates will help you spot worn-out parts during the cleaning process.  Packserv also has a team of technical specialists within Australia who can assist with regular maintenance.
