ZONESUN ZS-TB164PO Real-Time Print and Apply Labeling Machine for Round Bottles

Overview

The ZONESUN ZS-TB164PO is a real-time print-and-apply labeling machine purpose-built for round bottle labeling. It integrates label printing and application into a single inline step — printing variable data including batch numbers, expiry dates, serial numbers, barcodes, and QR codes in real time, then immediately applying the label to moving products with ±1 mm accuracy. Operating at 23–28 pcs/min, the ZS-TB164PO is designed for medium-speed production lines in food, beverage, daily chemical, and pharmaceutical industries that require flexible, on-demand label content without pre-printed label inventory.

Key Features

• Real-Time Print & Apply in One Pass: Label printing and application are performed inline in a single continuous motion — no pre-printed label stock required. Variable data is generated and printed at the moment of application, enabling last-minute content changes without stopping the line.
• Variable Data Printing — Batch, Date, Serial, Barcode, QR: Integrated print head supports full variable data including batch numbers, expiry dates, serial numbers, 1D barcodes, and 2D QR codes — covering traceability, compliance, and anti-counterfeiting requirements in a single system.
• ±1 mm Round Bottle Labeling Accuracy: Precision label applicator and bottle positioning mechanism maintain consistent label placement on cylindrical surfaces across the full production run, meeting retail and regulatory presentation standards.
• 23–28 pcs/min Medium-Speed Output: Stable throughput supports integration into medium-speed packaging lines without creating a bottleneck, while remaining accessible for smaller operations scaling up from manual labeling.
• Wide Label Size Range (40–250 mm × 20–100 mm): Accommodates a broad range of wrap-around and partial-wrap label formats, with customizable settings for different bottle diameters and label dimensions.
• Eliminates Pre-Printed Label Inventory: On-demand printing removes the need to hold pre-printed label stock for each SKU, reducing label waste, storage costs, and the risk of using outdated label versions.
• Customizable Product & Label Dimensions: Standard configuration handles 52 mm diameter / 130 mm length bottles; custom configurations available for different round container formats.
• Multi-Industry Compliance Ready: Supports GS1 barcode standards, lot traceability, and regulatory date coding requirements for food, pharmaceutical, and chemical labeling compliance.

Applications

• Food & Beverage: Round bottle labeling with real-time best-before dates, batch codes, and barcodes for sauces, juices, oils, and condiment bottles on food production lines.
• Pharmaceutical & Nutraceutical: Serialized label printing and application on medicine bottles, supplement jars, and syrup bottles for lot traceability and regulatory compliance.
• Daily Chemical & Personal Care: Shampoo, body wash, lotion, and cleaning product round bottle labeling with variable batch and expiry data for retail and private label brands.
• Cosmetics & Skincare: Serum, toner, and treatment round bottle labeling with QR codes linking to product authentication or ingredient information pages.
• Industrial & Chemical Products: Round container labeling for lubricants, solvents, and chemical products requiring GHS-compliant hazard labels with variable lot and date data.
• Contract Packaging & CMOs: Multi-SKU round bottle labeling operations where on-demand variable data printing eliminates label changeover time and pre-printed stock management between client batches.
