摘要:
The invention relates to a labelling machine (1) for labelling a stack of elements, being intended for the automated placement of a label located between elements forming part of the stack, comprising a support structure (2); printing means configured for printing a label to be placed on a stack of elements; a head (6) supported on the support structure (2), the head (6) being provided with printing means, the head being movable and adjustable at least in height through guiding means and motorised means; and separation means intended for separating two elements superimposed on one another forming part of the stack, such that they vertically separate an element to be handled, generating a free space between the two elements intended for the arrangement of the label.

Apparatuses and embodiments related to compensated laser cutting of labels. A computer system receives an image of a label, and rasterizes the image. The computer system determines how much of each type of printer ink of a label printer to deposit at each pixel location of the image. The computer system determines which pixels intersect a cut line, and determines the characteristics of the ink of the pixels, such as the quantity or thickness of the ink at the pixel locations. The computer system determines laser data including power, cut speed, and/or frequency of a laser that is tuned to accurately cut through the ink that forms the image, the material(s) of the label, and the adhesive that removably adheres the label to base material(s), but to not excessively damage the base material(s). A laser cutting system uses the laser data to control a laser.

A method and apparatus for imaging, cutting and applying a linerless label substrate 2. The substrate 2 is transported to an imaging area and is selectively illuminated by a suitable laser to form an image. By determining the position of the edge of the image, further laser illumination is used to cut the label substrate thereby providing a single label for application to an object. In this manner, the method of the present invention provides all the benefits of a linerless labelling system plus enables flexibility in printing labels of different sizes.
