Versatile Application Across South African Industries

The TGWL-125 is ideally suited for:

• Pharmaceutical industry – Syrup bottles, tonic jars, and glass vials

• Food & beverage sector – Labeling for sauces, oils, soft drinks, or spice containers

• Cosmetics – Cold glue labeling for lotions, oils, and herbal preparations

• Liquor & spirits – Neat and professional paper labels for bottles

• Chemical & household products – Suitable for round disinfectant and detergent bottles

With its ability to label 80–90 bottles per minute, the machine supports growing businesses in Pretoria, Port Elizabeth, and other emerging industrial regions of South Africa.

How It Works – The Labeling Mechanism

Technogen’s automatic wet glue labeling system uses a combination of mechanical precision and vacuum suction to ensure flawless label application on every bottle.

Step-by-step Operation:

1. Bottle Feeding
   Bottles are automatically placed onto the moving conveyor and spaced correctly by a feed-worm mechanism.

2. Glue Application
   A rotating glue cylinder picks up glue from the cold glue pot, forming a thin, uniform layer on the gluing pad.

3. Label Pickup
   A vacuum pickup cylinder retrieves a pre-cut label from the oscillating label box and holds it securely.

4. Label Wrapping
   The label is smoothly wrapped around the bottle as it passes through the labeling station.

5. Pressing & Fixing
   A rubber pressing belt ensures the label is perfectly fixed without bubbles or creases.

This process is designed to be automated, synchronized, and efficient, reducing wastage and minimizing human error.
