Working Principle of Rotary Ampoule Labeling Machine

Ampoules are loaded onto infeed hopper of the machine from where it is delivered to the feedworm. Feed worm rotates ampoule and during its operation transfer the ampoules to the Starwheel. The Starhweel is having rollers of same diameter as of ampoule body diameter. Starwheel transfer ampoules to the labeling station where ampoule picks label one by one and further moves towards pressing unit. Pressing Unit equipped with rubber belt for proper placing the labels. During movement of ampoules from pressing belt ampoules get labeled.

Duly labeled ampoules get collected on Outfeed Collection Tray for further operation. In case of printing unit opted labels will be printed with printing device before applying onto ampoules. There are encoders installed which sense gap between two labels and accordingly provide signals to print data onto labels.

Feeding: Ampoules are loaded vertically into an in-feed tray or hopper. A feed screw/worm separates and transfers them to a rotary star wheel for precise positioning.

Rotation & Sensing: The star wheel rotates ampoules past sensors that detect the container and trigger label release from a servo-controlled dispenser.

Label Application: Self-adhesive labels are dispensed and wrapped around the rotating ampoule.

Pressing & Collection: A pressing belt/unit (often rubber) ensures firm adhesion. Labeled ampoules are collected vertically in an out-feed tray or conveyed onward.

Synchronization: All movements (conveyor, dispensing, pressing) are synchronized via AC frequency drives or servo motors for vibration-free, accurate labeling.
