Used Labeling Machinery: Hidden Costs You Did Not Know About

Used Labeling Machinery and Packaging Machinery:

Purchasing used labeling machinery, sealing, and packaging machinery will definitely provide a path to lower machinery purchase costs- and it will feel like a great deal. But watch out- you could be setting yourself up for huge costs that far outweigh any savings you thought you might make by purchasing second-hand. 

There are many ‘unseen’ costs of purchasing used label application machines, sealing machines and other packaging machinery. This is especially the case with Labeling machines.

Used Labeling MachineConsider Employee Skill Set Requirements

The skills required to operate older labelling* machines will far outway the skills to operate modern good value labeling equipment. Increased skill set employees means, increased training and dependence on higher paid more experienced staff to keep an old machine running (if you can find such staff – or keep them). Newer labeling machinery provides ease of use technology such as touch screen controls, motor speed synchronization and far more simple job changeovers; put simply new labeling equipment is usually far easier to operate. Setting up an old/used  machine and teaching employees to properly use it can quickly eat into the “savings” you made buying the machine.

Machine Condition and Reliability

Reliability is a big factor. Although a machine may look like it is in good shape from the outside, used equipment is subject to previous wear and tear including items that might not be immediately visible. Even with a thorough manual inspection from a skilled technician, there are internal problems that can be missed.  To name a few of the very likely things you will inherit; consider bent shafts, worn down gears and teeth, electronics on its last legs, obsolete operating systems and electronics and mechanical parts no longer produced. 

Loss of production

The Big One:  Loss of production TIME. 
When production stalls your reputation, your profits and your business opportunities can all be significantly impacted.

Lengthy job set up times are NOT GOOD things; even if you have the advanced skill set employees to do themUsed Labeling Machine now. Compared to new labeling machines, most old machines have significantly longer and more complex set-up procedures. 

Would you buy a car you could not service for all the likely AND unlikely service events?  New and old machines alike come with the responsibility of maintenance. Maintenance of old equipment is a much more tricky affair that often involves long waits for replacement parts ;  if you can find them or if they still exist. You may want to back yourself that you are qualified to self service an old labeler, however, labeling machines have a simple task that is achieved with literally thousands of parts.  Even experienced label machine representatives and engineers call upon their teams to solve some issues – with your old labeling machine you are a team of one with a fraction of the labeling knowhow of a company that designs and supplies the current labeling machinery.

Good new labelling* equipment can be serviced quickly if a problem arises. “Current” parts are much faster and easier to identify, reorder and install.

Consider the enhanced position you are in if you were to order a good value LabelOn™ labeling machine with its online gallery support.  Communicating any service issue is instant, recorded for future reference  and identified using pictures and video of current machinery and parts (see below).

Label Machine Service - LabelOn™ Gallery Asset

Older labeling equipment may initially have a lower bottom line, but could really cost you in the long run. Current Used Labeling Machinerylabeling machinery allows for ease of use, quicker training, assured service and support plus significantly fast job turn around.

Buying your labelling* machine, induction sealing machine and other packaging machinery can be a big decision, for your production process, its dependability and your pocketbook. 

You really need to find great machinery; where you know it will work without breaking the bank or compromising the integrity of your production.

Making Re-Purposed Glass Packaging Possible with Induction Sealing and SealerOn™

Induction Sealing Glass

The appeal to pack into glass is well documented.

Those seeking products in glass are looking for product that is not tainted by plastic contact.  They are looking for purity in the product and most likely align themselves with the goals of environmental awareness and sustainability.

If packaging can be recycled, that is a big plus to these consumers. If packaging can be re-purposed or go on serve a purpose well beyond a single use, that is ideal.

Almost all Glass Packaging has a Neck with a thread to allow for the placement of a cap.

More often than not, the caps are Metal Caps and this tends to eliminate the prospect for sealing using induction sealing as the induction sealing process usually works with a cap holding the induction sealing liner and passing under a high frequency oscillating magnetic field; the metal caps do not allow this field to reach the induction material.

Food and Cosmetics packed into Glass need

a) A Good Barrier on their Opening.

b) A form of Tamper Evidence.

c) A seal that will not allow for leaking.

 

To achieve a) b) and c) traditional Secondary measures include:

i) Heat Shrink Bands (I refer to the clear versions of these as “turtle chokers”

The application of these Heat Shrink Bands is onerous in production

The removal of the Heat Shrink Bands is onerous on the end user

They are a great source of dust collection

They rely on other properties of the Cap and Capping Equipment to  prevent leaking

ii) Tamper evident Labels applied to the lid with one or more fingers that fold down the sides of the container.

There is clever machinery out there to achieve this see: http://view.label-on.com/jarste

This method also relies on other properties of the Cap and Capping Equipment to prevent leaking.

With new “Break Though Glass Induction Sealing Material” and with a range of standard and Capless Induction Sealing machinery; Adeneli and Benefel can present new and innovative solutions to pack in glass.

To date Glass induction sealing material had been limited, in the main, to dry products such as instant coffee or Gel Capsules and other powders.

Repurposed Thumb

We now have a “Break Though Glass Induction Sealing Material” that works with many liquids including Vegetable based Oils.

Treating Induction Liners as Contents

Food Grade Induction Liners

Big Brand Cosmetic and Food Companies value their product being produced in Western Countries like the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, The UK, Germany and France.

For example, a Salt Scrub that says produced in Canada carries a lot more appeal to clients and Brand owners alike than a product that says “Made in China”; Especially a product that you will Ingest or put into Direct Contact with your Body.  The reasons are really quite obvious – it is common knowledge that in some parts of Asia where there is a huge ether of manufacturing, completely regulating all practices to be safe is a very difficult task. This leaves open an unacceptable risk for many consumers who will understand that “somewhere” in the chain of processes that go into the finished product something can more easily go wrong.

It is not uncommon to source packaging from Asia and then produce the contents in a more controlled and higher profile country or location.

If the brand (and clients) see value in knowing the contents are produced in a safe and controlled location then Induction Liners should NOT be considered as separate from the contents or as simply “inert” packaging.

Safe Induction Liners

The sealing layer of an induction cap liner that comes into contact with the inside area of your packaging is a plastic polymer and or an adhesive. Often cap suppliers will provide this lining material without paperwork to identify and qualify the material fit/safe for purpose. For example the liner may only be suitable for industrial chemical contents.

industrial-safety ImageDuring the induction sealing process, the lining material is heated to a point where their sealing polymers and adhesive are in a liquid/molten state. This can OFTEN mean liners from unknown suppliers in China will have a polymer cocktail that can leach into your (your clients) product*.

The process of induction sealing could therefore result in some nasty compounds becoming an extra unintended ingredient in the product.

Please be assured that we are only raising this point to make sure you are aware of this possibility and to allow your client and you to complete a due diligence for the manufacturing of a product that will be in contact with people’s skin.

From our experience, the least that can be expected from a supplier of caps with lining material is to be given a cap lining certificate of compliance with food and commodities; supplied, on the letter head of the manufacturer of the lining material. It is not sufficient to have such a document issued by the cap supplier or a lining material agent that simply puts their letter head at the top of a generic declaration.

“Food for thought”

All our liners are manufactured using lining materials that have a cap lining certificate of compliance with food and commodities; supplied, on the letter head of the manufacturer of the lining material.

*Even the Foam we supply for fitting behind induction liners is resistant to the heat process of the Induction Sealing process and this foam comes with it’s own certificate of compliance with food and commodities.

Often the first thing our clients realized with respect to how things can go wrong with Seals from Asia or India is inconsistency of sealing results. That problem , while a practical problem is a relatively minor problem. That is a relatively safe issue and it is well-known that this will often be due to variations from batch to batch of liners produced in these regions.

The safest way to treat induction lining material (and source it) is as if it were the contents.
