Labeling Systems BH700

THE BH700, when paired with any BH or Marathon roll-fed labeler, creates a durable and dependable roll-on shrink-on labeling system. Based on the patented B & H Endura® Process, the BH700 provides high-impact shrink labeling at a lower cost versus shrink sleeve labeling.

In B & H's patented Endura process, shrinkable roll-fed labels are applied to containers using a roll-fed labeler. Containers are then conveyed through the BH700 shrink system, where temperature-controlled hot air guns gently warm the label area. The label shrinks and perfectly conforms to the contour of the container. The result is a unique, eye-catching package with enhanced shelf appeal.

A RANGE OF APPLICATIONS

With a wide array of available shrinkable label materials, the BH700 is able to support labeling of a wide variety of shaped containers, from innovative contour profiles to necked-in aerosol cans. The system handles metal, glass, plastic and fiberboard containers ranging in size from 2 to 3.5 inches (50.8 to 88.9 mm) in diameter. Operating at up to 500 containers per minute, the BH700 shrink system can interface with any roll-fed labeler.

COST-EFFECTIVE DECORATION

Labels applied with roll-fed shrink technology are less expensive than shrink sleeves. Initial capital equipment investment is lower, and change parts and label costs are less. Line speeds are typically faster than shrink sleeve labelers and overall machine productivity is higher due to reduced scrap rates and lower machine maintenance.

For aerosol manufacturers using necked-in cans, the Endura process provides many advantages over pre-printed litho-decorated cans: just-in-time manufacturing flexibility, reduced warehouse space and inventory carrying costs, shorter production runs; and faster new product introductions.
