In pharmaceutical manufacturing environments across Great Britain, injectable packaging demands absolute precision, sterility, and traceability. Facilities operating in London, Cambridge, Oxford, Stevenage, Nottingham, Manchester, Liverpool, and the wider Midlands pharmaceutical corridor require labeling systems that perform flawlessly under high-speed conditions while complying with strict GMP and regulatory expectations.
Technogen Enterprise, an experienced manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of pharmaceutical labeling machinery, offers a highly engineered Ampoule Sticker Labeling Machine designed specifically for ampoules, vials, and eye/ear drop bottles used in injectable and sterile product applications.
An Ampoule Sticker Labeling Machine is a high-speed automatic labeling system developed to apply self-adhesive / pressure-sensitive labels on cylindrical pharmaceutical containers such as ampoules, small vials, and dropper bottles. These containers typically require vertical handling to prevent breakage and to maintain product integrity during labeling.
Technogen’s ampoule labeling machines are vertical rotary systems, allowing ampoules to remain upright throughout the labeling process, ensuring:
Accurate label positioning
Minimal product damage
High operational stability
Clean and repeatable labeling results
The machines are suitable for partial wrap or full wrap labeling, depending on product and regulatory requirements.
The machine operates on a vertical rotary labeling principle, combined with servo-driven dispensing and intelligent sensing technology.
Step-by-Step Operation
Ampoule Loading
Ampoules are manually or semi-automatically loaded onto a stainless-steel infeed tray.
Vertical Feeding
Ampoules are guided into the rotary labeling zone while remaining in an upright position.
Container Detection
A fibre-optic sensor detects the presence of each ampoule to ensure precise label application.
Label Gap Detection
A fork sensor detects the gap between consecutive labels to control dispensing accuracy.
Servo-Driven Label Application
A servo motor driven label applicator dispenses the label with controlled tension and speed.
Wrap-Around Mechanism
The label is wrapped smoothly around the ampoule using a dedicated wrap-around assembly.
Discharge & Collection
Labeled ampoules are collected in a vertical unloading tray, maintaining orientation and safety.
CGMP-compliant vertical rotary design
Machine body and enclosure fabricated from Stainless Steel 304
Servo motor driven label dispensing head
PLC-controlled operation with colour HMI interface
High labeling accuracy within ±1 mm
No change parts required for label size change
Minimal change parts for ampoule size change
Advanced fork sensor for label gap detection
Fibre optic sensor for ampoule sensing
Auto label length detection system
Maintenance-free mechanical design
Facility to integrate thermal inkjet printer for batch coding
Suitable for sterile and injectable production environments
