ABSTRACT:
An automatic label winder automatically winds a label web imprinted with bar codes or other information on a label cassette. The winder includes a turntable on which the label cassette may be mounted. A winding shaft is disposed at the center of the turntable for rotating the take-up core of the label cassette. A cutter mechanism is carried on the turntable for cutting the label web after a predetermined length of label web has been wound on the cassette. The cutting mechanism is actuated by turning the turntable. The turntable alternates between a first position which allows the label web to be rolled onto the cassette and other positions which activate the cutting mechanism and which allow the beginning of a label web to be guided into the cassette. Through an optical sensor, in conjunction with a hole in the body of the turntable, the rotational position of the turntable is determined and a turntable stop signal is generated.
