San Manuel Bottled Water Group: 2.5-gal HDPE bottle labeling

Pressure-sensitive labeler applies labels to the top of the 2.5-gal HDPE bottle but slides down and labels a side panel on the two smaller bottle sizes.

Bags of bottles are debagged by a Dyco (www.dyco-inc.com) system that sends bottles single-file through a Quadrel Labeling Systems (www.quadrel.com) pressure-sensitive labeler. When the 2.5-gal bottles are being filled, labels are applied to a top panel. But with 2.5- and 1-gal bottles, the label must be applied to a side panel. The labeler's sliding head permits this to be done with ease.
