How to Labeling Empty Soft Plastic Bottles? VTOPS Introduces an Economical Semi-Automatic Labeling Machine
In the packaging industry, labeling soft plastic bottles has always been a challenge, especially when applying self-adhesive labels to empty bottles. Due to the flexibility of the bottle body, traditional labeling methods can easily cause deformation, affecting labeling accuracy and appearance. To solve this problem, VTOPS has developed an economical semi-automatic labeling machine that offers an innovative solution.
Challenges of Labeling Soft Plastic Bottles
Soft plastic bottles face several key issues during labeling:
- Bottle Deformation: Due to their flexible nature, bottles may collapse under pressure during labeling, causing labels to be applied unevenly or misaligned.
- Unstable Labeling Precision: Bottle deformation makes it difficult to align labels accurately, affecting the product’s overall aesthetics.
- Challenges in Automation: Conventional fully automatic labeling machines may require additional customized support structures when handling soft bottles, increasing equipment costs and maintenance complexity.
Innovative Solution: VTOPS-L805 Labeling Machine
The VTOPS-L805 labeling machine effectively addresses the challenges of labeling soft plastic bottles by using compressed air to temporarily stiffen the bottle, ensuring stability and high precision during the labeling process.
Key Features of the Equipment
- Compressed Air Support for Bottles:
- Before labeling, the machine injects a precise amount of compressed air into the bottle, expanding it and making it temporarily rigid.
- This prevents bottle deformation during labeling, improving accuracy and consistency.
- Precision Labeling System:
- High-precision sensors and intelligent control systems ensure uniform label placement.
- Even irregularly shaped soft bottles can have wrinkle-free and perfectly aligned labels.
- Semi-Automatic Operation for Cost-Effective Performance:
- This machine features a semi-automatic mode, requiring only manual bottle placement, after which the machine completes air injection and labeling automatically.
- Ideal for small and medium-sized manufacturers looking to reduce investment costs while improving production efficiency.
- Compatible with Various Materials and Sizes:
- Suitable for soft plastic bottles made from PE, PET, PP, and other materials.
- Easily adjustable for different bottle sizes, allowing for quick and flexible changes.
- Compatible with All Round Bottles – Multi-Purpose Machine:
- This machine is not only designed for soft plastic bottles but is also compatible with all types of round bottles for self-adhesive label application.
- When labeling non-soft bottles, the compressed air injection function can be disabled, making the machine versatile for different applications.

Application Scenarios
The VTOPS semi-automatic labeling machine is particularly suitable for:
- Cosmetic Industry (e.g., flexible shampoo bottles, skincare product bottles)
- Food & Beverage Industry (e.g., mineral water bottles, carbonated drink bottles, juice bottles, flexible plastic condiment bottles)
- Pharmaceutical Industry (e.g., plastic medicine bottles, vitamin bottles, supplement bottles)
- Household Chemicals Industry (e.g., detergent bottles, disinfectant bottles, fabric softener bottles)
Conclusion
VTOPS has developed this economical semi-automatic labeling machine to address the deformation challenges faced when labeling soft plastic bottles. By injecting compressed air into the bottle before labeling, the machine enhances label precision and aesthetics while lowering production costs, making it a cost-effective solution for small and medium-sized enterprises.
Additionally, the machine is designed for multi-purpose use, supporting the labeling of all round bottles. When labeling non-soft bottles, the air injection function can be turned off, making the equipment even more versatile and cost-efficient.
If you are looking for an efficient, precise, and affordable soft plastic bottle labeling solution, the VTOPS semi-automatic labeling machine is your ideal choice!
