A labelling machine comprises a supply spool support (10) for supporting a supply spool (16) comprising label stock (18) comprising a web and a plurality of labels attached to the web and which are separable from the web; a take-up spool support (12) adapted to take up a portion of web; a first motive means configured to propel the web along a web path (20) from the supply spool support towards the take up spool support, the first motive means comprising a first motor including a first stator and a first rotor; a labelling peel beak (30) located along the web path and configured to peel the labels from label web as the label stock passes the labelling peel beak; and a printer (36) for printing on the labels. The printer includes a ribbon supply spool support for supporting a ribbon supply spool comprising printer ribbon for the printer; a ribbon take-up spool support adapted to take up a portion of the printer ribbon; and a second motive means configured to propel the printer ribbon from the supply spool support towards the take up spool support, the second motive means comprising a second motor including a second stator and a second rotor. The labelling machine further comprises a base plate. The following components are mounted to the base plate such that the majority of each component is located on one side of a first surface of the base plate: supply spool support, take-up spool support, first stator, labelling peel beak, ribbon supply spool support, ribbon take-up spool support and second stator.

The present invention relates to a stamp base (1) for a label stamp (2) of an apparatus (3) for labelling individual packs (4), having a stamp-base housing (5) which extends, in a direction of extent (E), from a first housing end (5a) with a first housing opening (6a) to a second housing end (5b) with a second housing opening (6b), having a pressure channel (7) which extends in the direction of extent (E) from the first housing opening (6a) in the stamp-base housing (5), having a perforated plate (8) which closes the second housing opening (6b), is connected to the stamp-base housing (5) and through which at least one main nozzle (9) extends in a running direction (V), having a pressure chamber (10) which extends, counter to the direction of extent (E), in the stamp-base housing (5) from the perforated plate (8) and is delimited on all sides, in a direction orthogonal to the direction of extent (E), by a stamp-base-housing wall portion (11), having a connecting portion (12) which extends in the stamp-base housing (5), in the direction of extent (E), between the pressure channel (7) and the pressure chamber (10) and connects the pressure channel (7) to the pressure chamber (10), and having a control element (13) which is arranged in the pressure chamber (10) and can be moved between two end positions (1, 11) which give rise to different flows through the pressure chamber (10), wherein the at least one main nozzle (9) connects the pressure chamber (10) to the surroundings of the stamp-base housing (5). In order to simplify handling, the invention proposes that at least one secondary nozzle (14) should extend through the stamp-base-housing wall portion (11), which delimits the pressure chamber (10) on all sides, in a direction orthogonal to the direction of extent (E), said secondary nozzle connecting the pressure chamber (10) to the surroundings of the stamp-base housing (5). The invention also relates to an apparatus (3) and to a method for labelling individual packs (4).

The invention relates to a method and a device for applying a shrink film sleeve (1) to a container (9). The method comprises the following steps: a) perforating of the shrink film sleeve (1) at predefined distances, b) expansion of the perforated shrink film sleeve (1) by means of an expansion device, in particular an expansion mandrel (3), c) transporting of the expanded shrink film sleeve (1) along the expansion device (3) having a conveyor roller pair (4a, 4b), d) tearing off of the shrink film sleeve (1) at the perforation with a downstream dispensing roller pair (5a, 5b), the transport speed (V tearing off) thereof being at least temporarily larger than the transport speed (V conveyor) of the conveyor roller pair (4a, 4b) and e) depositing the separated shrink film sleeve (1) onto the container (9).

There is described a label transfer device (7, 7') for conveying a label (2) along a path (Q). The label transfer device (7, 7') comprises a transfer drum (20) rotatable around a rotation axis (D) to define the path (Q) and delimited by an outer lateral surface (21) having a plurality of suction holes (30a, 30b, 30c) to retain the label (2) on the outer lateral surface (21) itself during transfer along the path (Q); a suction source (23) apt to exert a suction force on the label (2) through at least a fraction of the plurality of suction holes (30a, 30b, 30c); and a stationary distributor plate (24) rotatably supporting the transfer drum (20) and having at least one air port (25) configured to fluidically connect the suction source (23) to the plurality of suction holes (30a, 30b, 30c). The suction source (23) comprises at least one suction generation unit (35, 35') fluidically connected to the air port (25) and integrally mounted to the distributor plate (24) or being at least partially an integral part of the distributor plate (24') itself.

A labelling machine comprising a supply spool support (12) adapted to receive a supply spool (13), a take-up spool support (14) adapted to form a take-up spool (32) of web (30) from which at least some labels (74) have been removed, a motor (40) arranged to turn the take-up spool, and a controller to control operation of the motor. A web path (16) is defined between the supply spool and the take-up spool, and the controller is arranged to control the motor to turn the take-up spool so as to cause controlled predetermined linear movement of a web along the web path and onto the take-up spool.
