Brothers Vilgalys Spirits Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 We actually built one loosely based this video: Here's a pic (of ours). Total cost was like $16. The label roll goes under a dowel (that you can't see), over the plastic thing which creases so the label comes off, and then under the rollers (that we got at harbor freight for like $6 each). Requires a bit of practice to get the labels spaced right, but works fine. I've also heard the commercial ones made by Race Label are pretty good, but I didn't want to spend the money.

Guest Bobcat Hill Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 @ Brothers Vilgalys, thank you for sharing your admirable workmanship, but I'll likely give Race Label and the In Line folks a call. I am sharing your photo for future reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brothers Vilgalys Spirits Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 No worries, just depends on what kind of time you've got to devote to that. The professionally made stuff almost certainly works better than my homebrew thing, which can really only label one size of bottle anyways. When I do upgrade, I'll probably get one of these: http://www.primeralabel.com/ap362_features.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Rigo Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I agree with Smoogdog. Label One Connect are really great people. We purchased our original labeler from them 3 years ago and our upgraded unit 1 year ago. They also do our labels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Unfortunately the Label One folks have been gobbled up by Adams Label and no longer make, or support, the labeler machines. So I guess those of us who purchase one (we bought the Vert) are not in a happy place. I was hoping to upgrade our Vert with a moving line.

Dehner Distillery Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Race Labeler! They are the best. Even though I'm a distributor for them and selling them I'm not just saying that they really are the best. Joe Dehner 515-559-4879 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Yes, the Race machines are nice, but we have outgrown the manual labelers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dehner Distillery Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Sorry I tried to say, high speed labelers like an inline labeler on a conveyor system. running at 1600" a min......awesome, but crazy expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clearwaterbrewer Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 no one mentioned Primera? a few friends have the AP362 and really like it... I googled and found a video, it is what I plan on getting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eZqXJQkGag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salishseaorganicliqueurs Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 We've been using the Primera AP362 on the recommendation of another distiller. Works great, well worth the price. http://www.primeralabel.com/ap362_features.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluestar Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 We've been using the Primera AP362 on the recommendation of another distiller. Works great, well worth the price. http://www.primeralabel.com/ap362_features.html We have one AP362 and two manual Race labelers. For easier, bigger bottles, AP362 is hard to beat. But some stuff like smaller bottles with larger labels won't work well on it, so we do those by hand on the Race Jr's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irene@allamericanlabel.net Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 The Race Jr. gets my vote. Contact: Marc MooreRace Labeling Conceptswww.racelabel.com(800) 653-9357 Marc is awesome to work with and several of my clients use this machine.

Even though I'm a distributor for them and selling them I'm not just saying that they really are the best. Joe Dehner 515-559-4879 We just got our Race in and set it up. Still need to do a few more tweaks but it is very nice and the folks there are super helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelAtTCW Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Does anyone have a recommendation on a table-top label machine? Our customers really like the BottleMatic II once they've outgrown the Race (which is also awesome). Made in the USA, and capable of crazy fast speeds once you get into a rhythm. The manufacturer is always quick to pick up the phone and answer a technical support question. Check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david@nederlandergroup.com Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 It looks like the racelabel website is having trouble. We spec'd out this labeler. Would love any feedback if anyone here has used it. http://www.take-a-label.com/tal-3100r/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshGreenDoor Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Had anyone used the the take-a-label 3100r?? We have a square/round bottle and need a stamp style applicator. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
