ABSTRACT:
A computer controlled turret type labeling apparatus having a label applying mechanism for applying labels to containers. The labeling apparatus has a turret having a motor for driving the turret and a sensor for providing turret status information to a controlling computer. The turret apparatus contains at least one labeling station. Each labeling station also has a motor and a sensor, the motor drives the labeling station and the sensor provides labeling station status information to the controlling computer. The computer is programmed to process status information in conjunction with prestored information relating to the characteristics of the labeling apparatus, containers, and desired labeling and generate suitable control signals for labeling apparatus operation. The computer is coupled to the turret motor and sensor and to each labeling station motor and sensor for processing status information received from the turret sensor and each labeling station sensor, and generating control signals to drive the turret motor and each labeling station motor, based on the received, processed information, to effect labeling of containers.
