ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for applying heat sensitive labels and pressure sensitive labels wherein the apparatus can be readily changed to apply heat sensitive labels or pressure sensitive labels from a web along which the labels are positioned. In one mode for applying heat sensitive labels, the web is moved from a feed reel over a shuttle mechanism, a metering mechanism and adjacent a preheater and to a platen where successive labels are contact transferred from the web and applied to successive containers on a turret and thereafter the web is stored on a take-up reel. In a second mode, the preheater and platen are removed, the shuttle mechanism is bypassed, a peel bar assembly is positioned in place of the platen, a driven web take-up mechanism is added in advance of the take-up reel, and pressure hold down rolls are provided on the metering mechanism and the web with the labels thereon is moved about the peel bar assembly to peel a label from the web and apply the pressure sensitive label to an article on the turret and the web is thereafter redirected to the take-up reel.
