Questions & Answers
I'm here! Getting labels can be obtained from a variety of sources you can work with a local company to have them printed for you. If you would like to print your own labels, you can purchase a label printer.
It could be done, but you would need to alternate alternating labels on the same label roll, and space them appropriately so you wouldn't have to move the bottle to place the back label.
If the glass is tapered in the area where the label is applied, the label will not wrap evenly
Having not yet purchased a huge vessel, the housing has an adjustable height and looks like it will be plenty sturdy
Selected User Reviews For TAL-2100ER Electric Bottle Label Applicator
It does a great job In a nutshell, It's a great applicator for labels. This took me about 20 minutes to read all of the instructions and adjust to the bottles we're making. One of the most critical problems we had was when the labels bundled up when the bottle wasn't spinning fast enough. You can resolve your problem by moving the rollers under the bottle closer together if your issue is the same as mine. This makes it easier for the bottle to spin. You need to make sure the labels are arranged in a straight line throughout the machine (the same spacing on all rollers) otherwise the machine won't work. My only complaint is that it isn't inexpensive, but it is less expensive than most other electric labelers that I have used. It took us 10 seconds per bottle to apply by hand before this. Using this machine, a bottle can be filled every 3 seconds This entire process takes about 4 seconds (loading the bottle, labeling, unloading, and loading the next).
A good value for the money. Purchasing this labeler is the third time we have purchased this brand. There was an extremely cheap build with horrible instructions in the first instance. There were no eyes or rewinds on the second. The labeler has by far been the best purchase we have made, and if it were less expensive, I think we would have bought a few It is really important for us to rewind, because our labels are on cellophane, which clings to the rollers if the rolls are not rewound. I was really impressed with how simple setting up was. When using either direction of unwind, you just have to make sure the holder fits your container effectively. Although we did notice that it slowed down when the rewind got full, the speed was still great. As soon as the waste cellophane was unloaded, the machine would speed This eye is nice since it stops the machine once a label has been applied after you press the pedal. Other machines may require you to manually stop the machine, which makes them less accurate but more work. We really don't want to change that right now because it works exactly as it should. It was easy to load the label roll, but we are a little hesitant to change it. Our automated labeling system can label 500 bottles in less than an hour, as opposed to most hand labeling projects, which take almost a day. With the labeler we rarely see any bubbles or wrinkles because the labels are finicky metallic BOPP and are prone to bubbles and wrinkles. We are very happy with our purchase, and wish we had bought it earlier. It was worth the extra cost to have working equipment.
This was my first time to try this brand and I took a chance based on its made in USA and rave reviews. That was a good move on my part. Compared with my old printer, it's much easier to operate and I could tell from the first time I turned it on that the quality is way higher. Every time, I get perfectly positioned, straight labels, and I am always able to get in touch with the seller. The seller is also responsive and kind to my questions. I am happy to support a company that is made in America.
I think the knobs used to adjust the plates holding the labels could be a little bit larger or they tend to come undone quite often because they are small. Likewise, the brush that is supposed to smooth out the label is not very well attached (the knobs come undone again). We asked the UPS to pick up the machine for return, and since it was delivered to the Amazon warehouse (per UPS tracking) over 2 weeks ago, it has been in their warehouse. It must be a lot of money to be waiting for a refund. A POST-MODERN UPDATED Amazon refunded the purchase as soon as I requested it, and the refund was processed immediately.
A few improvements are needed before the machine can be considered a great machine. The reason I am writing this review is to let the company know what else would make this machine a five-star rating. I tried searching on YouTube and Amazon for videos showing you how to set up the Label machine, and could not find anything that showed you how to do it Several adjustments were needed and there is a special tool needed to loosen up the screws that hold the rollers in place. In my opinion, if they would use screws instead of handles, the settings could be changed more easily. As I struggled to use the roller for my label size, I started with a small bottle and once I leveled the peeling plate in the proper position, I was able to label two In addition to stepping by step video support, the Take-Along features a few improvements It will be great to have a label machine to stick labels with.
When I use this with my 2oz and 4oz bottles, the tinctures work great. This is an extremely easy to use and set up program.
After watching the set up videos several times, I finally got it. Following set up and a good label application, next one all bubbled, then the wedding winder snapped the web. Never got more than four good labels in a row after spending 3 hours on it. It is estimated that 9 out of 10 applicants had to reapply. A horrible product. Oh, and the carrier tray adjustment on the drive side was impossible to loosen because it was positioned in such a way that it was impossible to move it.
Production has been greatly increased by this machine. There were a few adjustments to be made. I called customer service and they were very helpful in guiding me through the steps.
