ATEX Labelling Machinery

ATEX Labelling Machinery

Labelling machinery options for projects with hazardous-area considerations.

Hazardous area labelling range

Application overview

ATEX labelling projects require the machine specification, controls and installation environment to be reviewed around the zoning, product and site risk assessment. Lancing can discuss the required approach before quotation.

  • Hazardous area specification review
  • Project-specific electrical and guarding considerations
  • Useful for solvents, aerosols, chemicals and flammable products
  • Documentation requirements agreed at project stage

Typical specification starting points

Final specification depends on real samples, label material and the production environment.

Container typeApplication dependent
Important noteSite zoning and risk assessment required

Specification points for this labelling range

ATEX Labelling Machinery should be selected around product handling, label roll data, required label position and the real production speed needed after changeover. A good specification should also confirm operator access, cleaning, guarding, conveyors, coding and spare parts before the machine is ordered.

  • Confirm product dimensions, material, weight and stability.
  • Check label roll core, outside diameter, label gap and unwind direction.
  • Agree acceptable placement tolerance and repeatability.
  • Plan integration with filling, capping, coding, inspection or end-of-line handling where required.

Enquire about the ATEX Labelling Machinery

Send your sample details, label roll specification and required output. Lancing UK can advise whether this configuration is suitable or whether another labelling route would be better.

Application evidence

Define the hazardous-area boundary before equipment selection

ATEX or hazardous-area suitability cannot be inferred from a standard labelling-machine photograph. Provide the site DSEAR assessment, zone, substance or dust information, equipment category requirements, area boundaries, ventilation and cleaning conditions. A competent project assessment is required for the machine, electrical equipment, static control and installation.

Hazard assessment

Provide the current DSEAR assessment, zone information and relevant substance, vapour or dust characteristics from the competent site assessment.

Equipment boundary

Identify which conveyors, labelling heads, printers, controls, sensors and ancillary devices sit inside or outside the classified area.

Installation evidence

Define earthing, static control, ventilation, cleaning, access and site responsibilities without assuming that a standard machine configuration is suitable.

Use the ATEX project route to prepare the trial and enquiry information.

Prepare a hazardous-area review

Send the competent site assessment, area drawing, pack samples, labels and line scope so Lancing can establish what specialist evaluation is required.
