LABELLING MACHINES FOR INDUSTRIAL CONTAINERS

Labelling plays an important role in identifying and presenting industrial products. Drums, buckets, jerrycans and other containers require solutions suited to their shape, material and labelling requirements.
Industrial manufacturers need equipment that meets their packaging constraints, accommodates a range of product references and supports their production targets. The choice of labelling machine depends in particular on container dimensions, label specifications and the required production rate.
OKJ Concept designs and manufactures customised self-adhesive labelling machines in France for professional applications. The MILA and MEDIUM ranges offer different labelling configurations, depending on the needs and technical constraints of each project.
Labelling industrial containers: possible applications
Labelling requirements vary according to the type of container, the product being packaged and the desired presentation. OKJ Concept labelling machines can be assessed for a range of applications, subject to compatibility with the selected machine configuration.
-
Industrial drums: applying a main label to identify the product and display the required information.
-
Buckets: labelling containers according to their shape, dimensions and stability as they pass through the machine.
-
Jerrycans: assessing a labelling solution suited to the container's geometry and the desired label position.
-
Cylindrical containers: applying labels to packaging compatible with the machine configuration.
-
Multi-station labelling: combining several stations to apply different labels to the same container, subject to technical feasibility.

Compatibility depends on factors including container shape, stability and material, as well as label dimensions and positioning. A technical assessment helps determine the appropriate configuration for each application.
How to choose a labelling machine for industrial containers
Choosing a labelling machine depends on the packaging characteristics and production targets. Several criteria need to be considered:
-
Container shape: cylindrical, rectangular or more complex geometries, with dimensions suited to the machine's handling and transport system.
-
Material: plastic, metal or another material compatible with the intended application.
-
Label specifications: dimensions, shape, material and adhesive properties.
-
Application area: front, side or another position compatible with the selected configuration.
-
Production rate: the number of containers to label per hour and the organisation of the packaging process.
-
Range of product references: the formats to be handled and how frequently changeovers are required.
-
Integration into the production facility: available space and coordination with other production stages.
These factors help define a solution that meets the manufacturer's technical requirements and production organisation.
OKJ Concept's MILA and MEDIUM labelling machines
OKJ Concept offers the MILA and MEDIUM labelling machine ranges to meet a variety of professional labelling requirements.
Depending on the project, machines can be configured with one or more stations to perform the required labelling operations. Compatibility must be assessed based on the containers, labels and target production rate.
Depending on the configuration and operating conditions, OKJ Concept labelling machines can reach a stated maximum rate of 1,000 products per hour. The actual achievable rate depends in particular on container format, the number of labels and the operations to be performed.
French manufacturing and technical support
OKJ Concept supports professionals in selecting and implementing their labelling equipment. Each project is assessed according to its technical constraints, container formats and production targets.
Support includes defining the machine configuration, delivery, on-site installation and training, as well as after-sales service.
