Labeling systems require tight synchronization and precise feedback to ensure consistent label placement. Encoders deliver real-time speed and position data to your control system, enabling:

• Accurate label feed timing
• Product spacing and gap detection
• Label position verification
• Web tension control
• Start/stop commands based on sensor input

Whether it’s rotary or linear measurement, encoders are the center of a well-tuned labeling system.

Labeling lines often require accurate distance measurement—especially for web length, conveyor motion, and cut-to-length processes. Linear encoders with measuring wheels provide:

• High-resolution linear feedback
• Accurate label registration
• Speed matching between web and applicator
• Real-time conveyor tracking

Pair our encoders with measuring wheels and brackets for plug-and-play linear measurement.

Modern label production relies on speed, accuracy, and consistent web control. From label creation and digital printing with equipment, to converting and finishing machines and rewinders from, every step of the process demands precise linear measurement.

• Print Registration Control – Align print heads and maintain consistent quality

• Die-Cutting & Converting Accuracy – Sync die stations and finishing modules

• Rewind & Unwind Monitoring – Track roll diameter and tension with confidence

• Pressroom Reliability – Built to withstand vibration, dust, heat, and washdowns

Whether you're designing a new system or retrofitting old equipment, our encoders help maximize accuracy, uptime, and efficiency. Let’s find the right fit.
