The YCT-33 Automatic Top & Bottom Labeling Machine is a high-efficiency, dual-head label applicator engineered to place self-adhesive labels on both the top and bottom surfaces of flat products in a single pass. Designed for manufacturers handling boxes, books, file folders, paper cartons, and similarly shaped items, this machine eliminates two separate labeling steps and consolidates them into one continuous, automated process — significantly improving throughput and label consistency.
Produced by Dongguan Yucheng Machinery Technology Co., Ltd. (YCTAUTO), the YCT-33 handles products ranging from 40 mm to 400 mm in length and 40 mm to 200 mm in width, including items as thin as 0.2 mm and as thick as 120 mm (with custom heights available). At a throughput of 40–80 pieces per minute, it is well suited for medium-to-high volume production environments where manual labeling has become a bottleneck.
Beyond standard flat surfaces, the YCT-33 features a modifiable labeling-strengthening structure that allows it to label on uneven, concave, and arc surfaces. Optional ribbon coding and inkjet printing modules enable print-and-apply workflows without a separate coding station.
Simultaneous Top & Bottom Labeling — Two labeling heads apply labels to the upper and lower surfaces in a single pass, cutting cycle time in half compared to sequential single-surface labeling.
40–80 pcs/min Throughput — Consistent automatic operation at production-grade speeds, reducing labor dependency and increasing shift output for flat-product packaging lines.
±1 mm Labeling Accuracy — Precise label placement on every product, ensuring professional, retail-ready appearance and barcode readability across all SKUs.
Wide Product Compatibility — Accepts flat products from L: 40–400 mm × W: 40–200 mm × H: 0.2–120 mm, with custom dimensions available to suit non-standard packaging formats.
Flexible Label Sizes — Accommodates labels from 6 mm to 250 mm in length and 15 mm to 120 mm in width, covering a wide range of barcode labels, certification stickers, and brand labels.
Uneven Surface Capability — Modified labeling-strengthening structure allows labeling on concave, uneven, and arc surfaces, making the YCT-33 adaptable to embossed or irregular-surface packaging.
Optional Ribbon Coding & Inkjet Printing — Integrated coding options print manufacture dates, expiry dates, and lot numbers directly onto labels during application — meeting food, pharma, and cosmetic regulatory requirements in-line.
Robust Industrial Build — At 180 kg with 950 W power consumption, the YCT-33 is built for continuous production duty with a compact footprint of 1600 mm × 780 mm × 1400 mm.

The YCT-33 serves a broad range of industries where flat-product labeling is required:
E-Commerce & Retail Packaging — Cardboard boxes, mailer cartons, gift boxes, and product packaging requiring top and bottom barcodes or brand labels
Publishing & Office Supplies — Books, notebooks, file folders, document wallets, and binder covers
Food & Beverage — Packaged food cartons, dry goods boxes, tea packaging, and snack boxes requiring nutrition label placement on top and bottom surfaces
Electronics & Technology — Electronic component packaging boxes, accessory cartons, and device retail boxes
Cosmetics & Healthcare — Cosmetic product boxes, skincare set packaging, pharmaceutical folding cartons, and supplement boxes
Industrial & Chemical — Chemical product cartons, lubricant packaging boxes, and industrial goods shipping cartons
The machine's adjustable structure and broad dimensional range make it adaptable to virtually any flat packaging format encountered in modern manufacturing and distribution.
Dedicated Labeling Specialist — Yucheng focuses exclusively on labeling and filling equipment, with deep R&D expertise in automatic labeling systems for flat, round, and irregular packaging.
Pre-Shipment Quality Assurance — Every YCT-33 unit is tested and calibrated against specification before leaving our facility, so your machine arrives ready for immediate production use.
OEM & ODM Customization — We adapt machine dimensions, conveyor configurations, and labeling head positioning to match your exact product and line requirements. Private branding is available for distributors and resellers.
Comprehensive After-Sales Support — Our technical team provides remote installation guidance, detailed video tutorials, and expedited spare-parts delivery to minimize downtime and keep your production running.
Complete Packaging Line Solutions — Yucheng manufactures conveyor systems, filling machines, and capping equipment alongside labelers, enabling us to supply and integrate a full packaging line from a single source.
Q: Can the YCT-33 apply different label sizes on the top and bottom simultaneously?
A: Yes. The top and bottom labeling heads are independently adjustable, allowing different label dimensions to be applied to each surface in a single pass. Please provide your label specifications when requesting a quote so we can verify compatibility.
Q: What product thickness range can the YCT-33 handle?
A: The standard configuration handles products from 0.2 mm to 120 mm in height. For thicker cartons or custom formats, we offer modifications to accommodate non-standard product dimensions — contact our engineering team with your specifications.
Q: How does the optional ribbon coding machine integrate with the YCT-33?
A: The ribbon coder is mounted on the labeling path. As each label feeds through the applicator, the hot-stamp coder imprints the required date or batch code before the label is applied to the product. This eliminates a separate coding station and reduces handling steps.
Q: What is the MOQ and lead time?
A: MOQ is 1 unit. Standard machines ship within 7–12 business days; custom orders within 15–25 business days. We confirm timelines at order placement.
Q: Can the YCT-33 be integrated into an existing production line?
A: Absolutely. The YCT-33 is designed for in-line integration and can be synchronized with upstream filling, capping, or cartoning equipment via conveyor. Contact us with your line layout and speed requirements for an integration assessment.
Send us your product dimensions, label specifications, and target throughput, and our engineering team will provide a tailored equipment recommendation with a competitive quotation.
