ABSTRACT:
Cutter apparatus to cut accurately a composite label without cutting the backing of the composite and a system that includes the cutter apparatus. The cutter apparatus includes a transporter mechanism positioned to receive the composite, which typically includes the backing, many labels on the backing and laminate covering the surfaces of the labels, the transporter mechanism being precisely operable to move the composite translationally in a direction (i.e., the X-direction herein). A detector ascertains the precise location of individual labels on the composite and is interconnected to provide control signals to the transporter mechanism to enable that mechanism to move the composite precisely along the X-direction. A cutter and actuator assembly is interconnected with the transporter mechanism to effect a precise cut of the composite label respectively at the forward and rearward edges of the label while the transport mechanism is moving the composite and cutting is discontinued once the cut at each place is achieved. Then a new label is moved into place. The cutter apparatus can be freestanding or can be an integral part of a larger system that may include a printer, winder, slitter, and so forth.
