Labelling line conveyors

Conveyors for labelling, coding and inspection lines.

Move products into and away from labelling equipment with stable support, controlled transfer points and enough room for operators to work safely.

Buyer focus

Choose the conveyor around the product, not just the available space.

Labels and codes need products to arrive predictably. Conveyor width, side guidance, transfer points and speed control all affect presentation through the labelling or coding stage.

For the clearest advice, share the pack format, production speed, available floor space and the machines before and after the conveyor. That makes it easier to confirm whether a straight, curved, incline, infeed, outfeed or accumulation route is the right starting point.

Layout planning

Check these four points before finalising the conveyor design.

Small details at the planning stage can prevent jams, unstable transfers and operator access problems once the line is running.

01

Start with the product

Confirm size, weight, base shape and stability before choosing the conveyor route.

02

Check the machines

Match conveyor height, speed and transfer direction to the equipment on either side.

03

Allow for operators

Keep access for loading, cleaning, adjustment, inspection and safe day-to-day use.

04

Plan the buffer

Decide whether the line needs accumulation to protect output during short stops.

FAQ

Common questions

Clear answers for buyers comparing conveyor options and preparing an enquiry.

Why does conveyor stability matter before labelling?

Unstable presentation can create skewed labels, missed codes, poor readability or unnecessary stops.

Can conveyors be supplied around existing labellers?

Yes. The layout can be designed around existing labelling and coding equipment, provided the machine dimensions and transfer heights are known.

Which conveyor is used for carton coding?

Belt conveyors are often suitable for cartons, trays and tubs when the base is stable and the transfer points are properly matched.
