ABSTRACT:
The labeling machine for dispensing labels from a continuous web of material to a plurality of articles is provided which includes a supply roll of labels, a dispenser for removing the labels from the continuous web, a drive drum for imparting a linear velocity to the web so as to move the web through the labeling machine while accumulating the web into a waste roll, and a driving control system, including a label position sensor, for alternately actuating and deactuating the driving device to move and terminate movement of the web, respectively, through the labeling machine. A web velocity compensator device is provided to compensate for variations in the linear velocity caused by, for example, the increase in the diameter of the waste roll on the drive drum so as to insure proper positioning of each of the labels to be dispensed relative to the dispenser upon deactuation of the driving device. The web compensator device may include a pivotable compensator arm for automatically moving the label position sensor device along the feed path relative to the web in response to an increase in drive drum diameter. Alternatively, web compensator device may include electronically controlling the time delay between sensing the web and stopping of the drive drum by controlling a variable time delay offset prior to deactuating the drive drum.
