    Abstract: An apparatus for processing containers comprises a movable carrier for conveying the containers. A plurality of filling units is in communication with the movable carrier. The filling units are constructed and arranged to fill the containers with a flowable medium during the conveying of the containers. A plurality of labelling devices is in communication with the movable carrier. The labelling devices are constructed and arranged to apply labels to the containers during the conveying of the containers. A plurality of closing units is in communication with the movable carrier. The closing units constructed and arranged to close the containers filled with the flowable medium during the conveying of the containers.

    Abstract: An apparatus for the treatment of containers (10), with a movable carrier (2) for conveying the containers to be treated, with a plurality of treatment units (4, 6, 8) which treat each container (10) in a pre-set manner, wherein the treatment units (4, 6, 8) of a first group of these treatment units (4, 6, 8) are filling units (4) which fill the containers (10) with a flowable medium, and these filling units (4) have in each case filling elements (14) which are arranged on the carrier (2) and which move jointly with the containers (10) at least sectionwise, wherein the treatment units (4, 6, 8) of a second group of these treatment units (4, 6, 8) are labelling devices (6) which apply labels to the containers (10), and wherein the treatment units (4, 6, 8) of a third group of these treatment units (4, 6, 8) are closing units (8) which close with a closure the containers (10) filled with the flowable medium and which have in each case closure elements (18) which are arranged on the carrier (2) and which move jointly with the containers (10) at least sectionwise. According to the invention the treatment units (4, 6, 8) are arranged with respect to the carrier (2) in such a way that the filling of the containers by the first filling units (4), the labelling of the containers (10) by the labelling units (6) and the closing of the containers (10) by the closing units (8) take place during a conveying of the containers (10) by means of one movable carrier (2).

    Abstract: A device for the transfer of fittings, such as labels during container labelling, having at least two gripper units that are offset in the circumferential direction around a transfer axis of a transfer station whereby it is possible to activate each in a clocked manner, whereby each of said gripper units takes over, via a movement around the transfer axis generated via a drive, a fitting individually from a moving take-over position of a feeder and transfers it through the transfer station to a moving hand-over position that is offset in the circumferential direction of the transfer station, at least two of the gripper units are arranged such that they can be moved around the transfer axis relative to one another, and stationary drive motors are provided for the gripper units that can be moved relative to one another, with which drive motors individually periodically non-uniform movements of the gripper units can be generated in the circumferential direction within one rotation. According to the method, each gripper unit is driven within one full rotation in the transfer station, relative to another, in a periodically non-uniform manner.

    Abstract: A device for transferring fittings having at least two gripper units offset in the circumferential direction around a transfer axis of a transfer station. Each gripper unit can be activated in a clocked manner, whereby each gripper unit takes over from a feeder, via a movement around the transfer axis generated by an electric servomotor, at least one container fitting individually from a moving take-over position of a feeder and transfers it through the transfer station to a moving hand-over position offset in the circumferential direction of the transfer station. The gripper units are arranged such that they move around the transfer axis relative to one another. The transfer station includes the electric servomotors as drive motors of the gripper units for generating within one full revolution of each gripper unit individually periodically non-uniform movements of the gripper units in the circumferential direction.
