Label die-cutting

A key finishing process in label production is die-cutting, which defines the final size and shape of the label. When producing self-adhesive roll labels, precise cutting is essential as it affects the label appearance, functionality and ease of application.

Until recently, the main technology for cutting labels was traditional die-cutting using dedicated tooling. This method enables very fast production of large quantities and remains the standard solution for high-volume runs.

In recent years, the label printing industry has seen significant technological advancements. Digital solutions allow greater flexibility, faster adjustments to different label sizes and reduced costs for smaller quantities.

One of the more advanced finishing technologies is laser cutting, although investment costs for such equipment are still relatively high compared to other cutting technologies.

Digital CNC label cutting

Digital CNC cutting is slightly slower compared to traditional die-cutting, making it ideal for small to medium print runs, typically from around 100 to several thousand labels.

The biggest advantage of CNC cutting is that no tooling is required, allowing complete flexibility in label size and shape.

The cutting process is performed using blades mounted in computer-controlled cutting heads. An optical camera system detects registration marks and ensures extremely precise cutting, even for complex label shapes.

In addition to cutting, the system also supports features such as label lamination, matrix removal (waste stripping), slitting for rewinding labels onto rolls and sheet cutting.

With modern cutting technologies, we can produce labels in various shapes and sizes while ensuring precise and high-quality finishing for different packaging applications.

Labels by application method – manual or machine labeling

With self-adhesive roll labels, it is important whether you will apply the labels manually or automatically. This determines the delivery format, label positioning on the roll, and technical preparation for use.

✔ manual or machine labeling ✔ delivery on rolls or sheets ✔ correct roll configuration for machine application ✔ custom dimensions and shapes

Manual application is simpler and more flexible, while machine labeling requires precise roll configuration to ensure smooth operation without interruptions or errors.

Labels for manual application

Labels for manual application are intended for products where labels are applied by hand, so the winding direction or label position on the roll is not critical.

This solution is ideal for smaller runs, craft production, seasonal products, manual packaging, and any situation where flexibility is important.

  • no restrictions on winding direction
  • easy manual application
  • suitable for small and medium runs
  • available on rolls or sheets

Perfect choice for fast, simple, and flexible labeling without technical limitations.

Labels for machine application

Labels for machine application are designed for use on automatic or semi-automatic labeling systems, where proper technical roll configuration is essential.

Parameters such as winding direction, label position, and spacing must be precisely defined, as they directly affect machine performance.

  • suitable for automated production lines
  • high productivity
  • precise and repeatable application
  • adapted to machine requirements

The best solution for large volumes where speed and consistency are critical.

Labels on sheets

For manual use, labels can also be supplied on sheets, allowing easier handling and better workflow organization.

This is especially suitable for smaller quantities, organized packaging, or desk-based work where rolls are less practical.

  • easy handling
  • suitable for small runs
  • organized workflow
  • ideal for manual packaging

A practical solution for manual work and smaller production batches.

When to choose manual or machine labeling?

The choice depends on production process, quantity, and packaging organization. Label pricing may be the same, but differences arise in preparation and technical setup.

Manual application

Best for small batches, manual packaging, testing, and flexible workflows.

Machine application

Suitable for large-scale production and automated lines.

Sheet delivery

Ideal for manual workflows and better organization.

Manual application – delivery options

Labels for manual application can be delivered:

  • on individual rolls
  • on rolls up to 33 cm width
  • on sheets

Regardless of the option, labels are always supplied on a backing liner for easy application.

Individual rolls are wound according to label width, while 33 cm rolls contain multiple labels arranged across the width.

Machine application – technical parameters

Key parameters include:

  • core diameter
  • maximum roll diameter
  • winding direction
  • label position
  • label gap

Incorrect configuration may cause machine issues or misalignment.

Choose the right application method

For manual labeling, choose simple delivery. For machine labeling, provide technical specifications.

Frequently asked questions about label application methods (FAQ)

When should I choose manual labeling?

Manual labeling is best suited for small batches, manual packaging, craft products, and flexible production environments where an automatic labeling system is not used.

It allows full control over the application process and is ideal for testing new products, short production runs, or custom packaging.

Are winding direction and label position important for manual labeling?

No. In manual application, winding direction and label position on the roll are generally not critical, which makes the process simpler and more flexible.

This reduces preparation requirements and allows faster handling without technical constraints.

Can labels be delivered on sheets instead of rolls?

Yes. Labels can also be supplied on sheets, which is especially practical for smaller quantities and organized workflows.

This format is commonly used for manual labeling at workstations where rolls are less convenient.

What is most important for machine labeling?

The most critical factor is correct roll configuration, including core diameter, maximum roll diameter, winding direction, label position, and spacing between labels.

Incorrect setup can cause machine interruptions, misalignment, or inefficient labeling processes.

Is there a price difference between manual and machine-applied labels?

The label price itself can be the same, but differences may arise in technical preparation and roll configuration required for machine application.

Proper setup ensures smooth production and prevents costly errors during labeling.

What information should I provide before ordering labels for machine application?

We recommend that you check the technical specifications of your labeling machine and provide all required parameters.

This includes core size, roll diameter limits, winding direction, label orientation, and gap between labels to ensure full compatibility and optimal performance.
