Carton/case coding and labeling is the application of information to a packed corrugate case. Labels assist with inventory and supply chain management accuracy. Case labels can contain information such as the product name, bar codes or lot trace information. Labeling machines and case coders ensure that all external markings are accurate and legible.

Legible labels help improve stock management. With accurate quantities and dates, inventory managers can track stock numbers and expiration dates. Proper lot tracking leads to increased inventory accuracy and minimizes the risk of expired products reaching the market.

Case vs Carton vs Box

Cases are sturdier than cartons and are often just used for shipping, although not always. Cases frequently contain multiple units of cartons. A carton is typically made from a thinner material than boxes, like paperboard. They are used as outer packaging for several types of products.

In China, usually box refers to a smaller size container and carton refers to a larger size container. (Box Labeling Machine)

Custom Labeling Machine For Your Carton / Case

Quickly and efficiently apply labels to cartons and small boxes with our carton labeling machines.

Improved Packaging Efficiency

Label and coding machines speed up the labeling process increasing productivity. Ink jet printing and print and apply label machines allow for on the fly printing. Printing labels with incremental information without the need to manually adjust the content. Labeling machines are faster and with better accuracy compared to labeling operations completed by hand. A labeling machines or case coding machine can be integrated into any existing production line.

Case Labellers Reduce Waste

Labeling applicators and print and apply label machines reduce label waste. Label waste is easily dispossessed with the machine re-rolling the waste backing.

For customized carton labeling machines, it is important to understand the following basic information:

#1.  Whether the carton is packed with products (your packaging line is first labeling or packaging products)

#2.  The location where the label needs to be applied, and how many labels need to be applied

#3.  Whether you need to print the label information instantly

#4.  Labeling machine alone or integrated into the packaging line to use

#5.  Other customized items (conveyor belt, automatic feeding, etc.)
