DTM AP550e is a semi-automatic label applicator for fast and precise application of self-adhesive labels on flat or slightly conical surfaces. It is designed for companies that want to streamline the labeling of items such as bottles, cartons, bags, cans, lids, and packaging without investing in a fully automatic labeling system.
