ABSTRACT:
An applicator automatically applies strip-mounted labels very precisely to both flat and curved objects. As each object is brought into position, a special pressure foot immediately applies a label already positioned on the foot to the object and the foot is designed to press the label against the object over the entire area of the label. As each object moves out of position, the label strip is advanced over a stripper plate by a preset amount as determined by an inductive label edge sensor. Simultaneously with this, the pressure foot momentarily swings toward the stripper plate and picks up the next label being peeled from the strip to ready the applicator for the next cycle.
