Specification points
These are the areas that usually decide whether a print and apply labeller runs smoothly on the line.
Pallet presentation
- Pallet height, overhang, wrap and product stability all affect label placement.
- The labeller can be configured for stationary pallets or controlled movement through a labelling station.
- Guarding and access should be planned around forklift and operator traffic.
Multi-side labelling
- One-side labelling is simpler but may rely on pallet orientation.
- Two-side and three-side labelling improves scan access where pallets are turned or stored in mixed orientations.
- Corner-wrap can be considered when a single label must be seen from two angles.

Can the label be applied through stretch wrap?
Labels are normally applied to the visible outer surface, often after wrapping, but the best sequence depends on the line.
Is a pallet labeller suitable for mixed pallet sizes?
It can be, if the height range, pallet presentation and applicator reach are specified correctly.
