Nexus High Speed Twin Head Labelling System

The Nexus twin-head bottle labeller is a high-speed dual servo labelling machine for bottles, running up to 120 bottles per minute. It is the fastest model in the Nexus labelling machine range, built for beverage, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and chemical lines where label placement has to stay accurate at full speed.

What it does

Bottles arrive on a heavy-duty conveyor that keeps them stable and evenly spaced. Two servo-driven label heads dispense labels in synchronisation with bottle movement, so front and back labels, or a wrap on round bottles, land in the same position every time. Label detection sensors read each label on the web and confirm placement, which cuts waste and prevents mislabelled bottles leaving the line. Recipes for each bottle and label are stored on the touchscreen.

Specifications

• Speed: up to 120 bottles per minute, subject to bottle and label specifications.
• Drive: dual servo control of label dispensing and bottle handling.
• Bottles: round, square, oval and flat containers.
• Label detection: sensor-based positioning and automatic detection to prevent mislabelling.
• Controls: touchscreen HMI with recipe storage and real-time monitoring.
• Conveyor: heavy-duty stainless construction with consistent bottle spacing.

Who it suits

Beverage bottlers, pharmaceutical and nutraceutical packers, cosmetics and personal care brands, and chemical producers running high-volume bottle lines. It runs after the capping machine and ahead of cartoning, with bottles fed at the front by a bottle unscrambler.
