Applying self-adhesive labels, especially radio frequency identification labels, to moving strip or sheet material involves transferring labels using suction cylinder rotating at peripheral speed corresponding to material's speed

摘要

The method involves peeling labels (1) in succession from a label strip (3), transferring them to a rotating suction cylinder (4) with the adhesive side facing out and the suction cylinder transferring the labels to the strip or sheet material (2) passed by the periphery of the cylinder, whereby the cylinder rotates at a peripheral speed corresponding to the material's speed.. An independent claim is also included for an arrangement for applying self-adhesive labels, especially radio frequency identification labels, to a moving strip or sheet material.
