摘要

A method of labeling an article cast from molten material, comprises providing a bath of molten material (24) to be solidified; and bringing a tag, bearing information relative to the article to be formed, into contact with the surface of said bath, and solidifying the material in said bath to form the article while the tag is in contact therewith, producing an adherence of the tag to the article. The tag comprises a structural sheet (10) having a portion including a surface with machine or human readable markings thereon, and at least one article attachment projection (16) extending outwardly from said portion and defining with said portion a passage (22) for flow therethrough of molten material, whereby upon contact of each attachment projection (16) with the molten material bath (24) each attachment projection (16) sinks into the molten material bath (24) exposing its passage (22) to the molten material for flow therethrough and bringing said portion into contact with the surface of the molten material, which contact is maintained while the molten material solidifies, thereby adhering each attachment projection (16) to the solidified material. An article is formed from a solidified mass, and said tag adhered thereto.
