Compact Hexagonal Labelling Machine
Controlled labelling for hexagonal jars, square jars and shaped containers.
Hexagonal and shaped jar range
Application overview
A specialist labelling system for containers that do not rotate like a round bottle. It helps control label placement around shaped faces and panel positions.
- Suitable for hexagonal and square jars
- Useful for premium food, cosmetics and gift products
- Controlled container orientation
- Compact layout for shaped container work

Specification points for this labelling range
Compact Hexagonal Labelling Machine 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
Prove orientation on hexagonal and multi-panel packs
Hexagonal packs can look regular but still rotate to several acceptable faces. Define which face is the datum, how the product is oriented and how the label crosses any corner. A representative trial should include moulding variation, filled weight and the final label material because rigid films and narrow corner radii can expose edge lift.
Corner geometry
Record corner radius, panel width and moulding variation because these determine how the label crosses from one face to the next.
Label flexibility
Trial the final film, paper and adhesive; a label that works on a flat sample may lift where it bridges a narrow corner.
Use the shaped-container guide to prepare the trial and enquiry information.
Prove a multi-panel pack
Send filled containers, a marked orientation sample and production label rolls so the face sequence and finished corner condition can be reviewed.
