ABSTRACT:
A system for securing literature to a container by means of a band segment includes a supply of banding material, drawing rollers for drawing out a predetermined length of band segment and a knife for cutting it off. A dispenser of the literature and a conveyor of containers are set in proximity with a carousel which carries an applicator head. The applicator head picks up the band segment by suction, then receives the literature by further use of suction, and finally places the literature and the band segment against the container by release of the suction and a sweeping movement of arms extending from the applicator head to the container. The band segment is supplied with a thermo-sensitive adhesive for effecting an adhesive bond to the container. The applicator head includes heaters for activating the adhesive over only that portion of the band segment which is to adhere to the container.
