ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for removing adhesive labels from thin articles, such as computer diskettes, is provided. The apparatus includes a diskette hopper for sequentially feeding a plurality of labeled diskettes onto an adhesive surface of a length of tape. The length of tape is fed from a tape supply reel and stretchers across the apparatus to a tape take up reel where the used tape and removed labels are wound up for disposal. A motor is attached to the take up reel for driving the diskette from an attachment area, where the tape is adhered to the diskette adhesive label, to a separation area where the diskette label is peeled from the diskette. The apparatus may further include radiant heaters for applying heat to the length of tape and the diskette labels to ease the label removal process.
