Automatic labelling machines
Newtec Labelling Srl was founded in 1982 in Goito (Mantua), designs and produces linear and rotary labelling machines suitable for all user requests both in terms of production speed and type of packaging. Each model, thanks to the customization of the design, has specific characteristics designed to give maximum performance in every type of production. The result of a very long experience and constant updating of technologies, each model is designed to guarantee high production rates, absolute packaging precision and low operating costs. The materials used and the construction technologies allow these machines to support very heavy workloads. Thanks to their reliability and ease of use they are also successfully used in small and medium-sized businesses.
Panther is a new modular labelling machine line, a flexible solution which allows to combine different label application technologies on a single rotary machine. Every module consists in a labelling station assembled on an easily replaceable cart. Panther allows to combine wet glue, hot melt, roll fed and autoadhesive stations.
Available features
• Electronic cam system: every plate is equipped with an independent brushless servomotor regulated by a programmable driver. This system allows the plates to perform complex movements, guaranteeing the user a virtually infinite range of application in terms of container shapes and label dimensions while making possible the construction of smaller machines. Further advantages of the electronic cam system are the possibility to include centring, controlling and coding devices, even at a later date.
• Optical centring and quality control systems.
• Defective product rejection system.
• No-stop system.
Advantages
• Flexibility and smaller dimensions made possible by the modular solution. The possibility of adding and removing different application systems spares the user from purchasing bigger mixed machines.
• Easy to use. Panther features centralized controls and an HMI interface that grants the user a complete control over the machine.
• IIOT ready: an unprecedented level of connectivity allows offering customers a completely remote manageable machine, for the purposes of both teleservice and machine reconfiguration according to the user’s needs.
• Easy maintenance.
• Energetic efficiency.
Giotto is a latest generation roll fed labeller, compact and very simple to install, easy to use and maintain in perfect working order.

In addition to Panther and Giotto, the company also offers other models of rotary or linear labelling machines, for the application of paper labels with cold glue, for the application of wrap-around labels in paper or plastic materials with hot glue, and for self-adhesive labels.
The company designs, engineers, and manufactures the most advanced labelling systems for any container model and shape, starting with the customer’s specific needs to create the best customized solution every time. Thanks to its technical and software development departments, each machine is increasingly faster and more efficient. NEWTEC has its own agents worldwide and participates in the industry’s most important trade fairs, ready to listen to every need and take on the next design and manufacturing challenge
