The YCT-14 Semi-Automatic Plane Rolling Labeling Machine is purpose-built for a labeling challenge that is distinctly different from round bottle or side-surface applications: applying self-adhesive labels cleanly and accurately to the upper plane or arc surface of flat bottles, square vases, plastic caps, and similar containers. The YCT-14 uses controlled rolling pressure to ensure every label is applied flat, bubble-free, and consistently aligned.
Manufactured by Dongguan Yucheng Machinery Technology Co., Ltd. (YCTAUTO), the YCT-14 is effective for cosmetic lines where flat or square bottles carry labels on the cap or upper surface. It suits plastic lids, compact cases, and any container requiring a flat or arc-surface label. Achieving ±0.5 mm accuracy at 15–30 pcs/min, custom molds match each workpiece profile. The optional ribbon coding machine adds date and batch printing in the same pass.
Plane & Arc Surface Rolling Application — The rolling pressure mechanism applies labels smoothly to flat top surfaces and gently curved arc profiles, eliminating bubbles, wrinkles, and misalignment from manual application.
±0.5 mm Labeling Accuracy — Precise label placement at ±0.5 mm on every cycle ensures a consistent, high-quality product appearance, critical for cosmetics and premium retail products.
Custom Mold Fabrication for Irregular Workpieces — Molds match each container's profile — square, irregular, or non-standard — ensuring stable loading and repeatable placement.
Wide Container Compatibility — Accommodates products up to L:250 mm × W:150 mm × H:120 mm, covering flat bottles, square vases, compact cases, and plastic caps. Custom sizes available.
Versatile Label Size Range — Handles self-adhesive labels from 15 mm × 15 mm up to 250 mm × 110 mm, from small cap labels to larger top-surface decorative labels.
Semi-Automatic Operation — A single operator controls loading and trigger, achieving consistent throughput of 15–30 pcs/min with full cycle oversight.
Optional Ribbon Coding Machine — A hot-stamp carbon ribbon coder integrates onto the labeling head, printing MFG date, EXP date, and batch/LOT numbers during application without a separate process step.
Compact, Manageable Form Factor — At 1000 mm × 550 mm × 1000 mm and approximately 45 kg, the YCT-14 fits easily into existing production rooms and can be repositioned as workflow needs change.

The YCT-14 plane rolling labeling machine is the right tool wherever labels need to be applied accurately and cleanly to top surfaces and arc profiles:
Cosmetics & Beauty Packaging — Flat foundation bottles, square toner bottles, powder compact lids, lipstick cap surfaces, and cream jar lids requiring flat or arc top-surface labels
Personal Care Products — Plastic shampoo cap surfaces, conditioner bottle tops, deodorant cap labels, and personal care item lids
Pharmaceutical & Health Products — Blister pack lids, flat medicine box surfaces, supplement container caps, and health product flat bottles requiring top-surface compliance labels
Consumer Goods & Retail — Square gift box surfaces, product display box top labels, and specialty retail packaging with flat surface label requirements
Industrial & Chemical — Flat chemical container caps, square vase-style industrial packaging, and plastic lid labels for bulk containers
Top-Surface Labeling Expertise — YCTAUTO's engineering team has deep experience with plane and arc surface labeling, from pressure calibration to mold design, ensuring quality on non-cylindrical surfaces.
In-House Mold Design & Fabrication — Custom molds are designed and manufactured at our Dongguan facility, giving you a single point of responsibility for both machine and tooling.
±0.5 mm Accuracy Backed by QC Testing — Every YCT-14 is calibrated and tested before shipment to confirm the stated accuracy specification under real production conditions.
OEM & Custom Configuration — We adapt the machine to your container dimensions, label materials, and workspace requirements. Private labeling and reseller branding available.
International After-Sales Support — Remote installation guidance, video troubleshooting, and spare parts dispatch minimize disruption to your schedule.
Q: What surface types can the YCT-14 label?
A: The YCT-14 labels upper flat planes and gentle arc surfaces. For round bottles, see the YCT-08/YCT-09; for 360° wrap-around on irregular containers, see the YCT-13.
Q: How does the rolling mechanism prevent bubbles on the label surface?
A: Rolling pressure applies the label progressively, squeezing out air ahead of the label edge rather than pressing all at once — resulting in clean, bubble-free adhesion on flat and arc surfaces.
Q: Can the YCT-14 label plastic caps and small lids?
A: Yes. Plastic caps and small lids are a primary application. Custom molds hold and position each piece accurately, ensuring repeatable label placement on small, lightweight workpieces.
Q: What is the MOQ for the YCT-14?
A: MOQ is 1 unit. We accept single-machine orders and multi-unit purchases. Contact our sales team for pricing and lead time based on your specific configuration.
Q: How quickly can the machine be set up for a new container type?
A: Label parameters adjust through the control interface in minutes. A mold swap for a different container shape takes longer — we pre-document all steps for your operators.
Q: Does Yucheng provide training for new operators?
A: Yes. Every machine ships with an operation manual and instructional video. Our engineers provide remote video-call guidance during setup, and on-site training is available for larger installations.
Q: Can the YCT-14 be integrated into an existing production line?
A: The YCT-14 is a semi-automatic machine for batch operation. For fully inline plane surface labeling on a production conveyor, contact us to discuss the YCT-30 or YCT-90, which are designed for continuous inline applications.
Share your container dimensions and label specs, and our team will recommend the right configuration.
