Orientation datum
Identify the face, seam, handle or moulded feature that establishes the starting orientation before the first label is dispensed.

Specification points for this labelling range
Automatic Three-Side Shaped Container Labeller 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.

Application evidence
How to specify a three-side shaped-container application
A three-side system needs a repeatable product datum before it can wipe labels across several faces. Supply the pack filled and capped, mark each label panel, record corner radii and identify any handle, seam or recess that can change orientation. The trial should check that the first face is aligned before later wipe-down stages move the label around corners.
Face sequence
Mark the order in which each label or wipe stage reaches the pack and show where one application can disturb a later face.
Corner wipe-down
Use final label material on filled packs to assess corner radii, edge lift, trapped air and the effect of label stiffness.
Use the shaped and irregular container guide to prepare the trial and enquiry information.
Plan a shaped-container trial
Send filled packs, every production label roll, marked face drawings and the intended line presentation so the orientation and wipe sequence can be checked.
