A labelling device for applying a label to an article (27, 28), particularly a large label to a paper roll, is disclosed which has a label-receiving device (10) and a pressing roller (13), which are arranged on a common support (8). In known devices of this type, the paper roll must be rotated in order to be provided with the label. It is here not ensured that the label adheres at the correct point and completely. By way of the novel device, it is achieved that the label adheres reliably to the desired position and completely. To this end, the support (8) can move in a horizontal direction and in a vertical direction, the two movements being independent of each other, and the label-receiving device (10) and/or the pressing roller (13) can move on the support relative to each other. Furthermore, a method is disclosed for applying the label to the surface of an article, in particular a paper roll, in which the label is taken from a receiving station, a layer of adhesive is generated, the label is transported to the article and is there pressed onto the article by means of a pressing roller. The pressing roller is here moved, under pressure, over the surface of the stationary article. …<IMAGE>… |
