Why bottle feed matters before labelling
Automatic labellers need stable, consistently spaced bottles. If bottles arrive in clumps, tip at the transfer or need manual correction, the labelling machine cannot maintain consistent output.
Labelling line infeed
Bottle unscrambler for labelling lines
Labelling performance depends on steady bottle presentation. Poor infeed can cause skew, gaps, stops and unnecessary operator handling.
Specification advice
Choose the machine route around the bottle and the line.
Machine interface checks
Check conveyor width, side-guide position, bottle spacing, labeller speed, label orientation requirements and the distance between the unscrambler outfeed and labeller infeed.
Practical outcome
The right bottle unscrambler or feed route gives the labeller a more predictable stream of containers and reduces manual loading pressure on the operator.
Lancing UK support
Send bottle details and target output for a practical shortlist.
Lancing UK can review the bottle format, downstream machinery and available floor space before recommending a compact rotary bottle feeder, automatic bottle unscrambler or wider infeed solution.

Questions
Common specification questions.
Can an unscrambler feed a wraparound labeller?
Yes, when bottle stability, spacing and conveyor transfer are suitable for the labeller.
Does the bottle need to be orientated before labelling?
Some labelling applications require orientation, but many round bottle wraparound systems mainly need consistent feed and spacing.
