Abstract (en)

A labelling machine strips labels (1) from an continuously advancing backing tape (2) and then applies the stripped labels to objects continuously advancing on a conveyor. The labels are transferred from the backing tape to the objects with the aid of a transfer mechanism (20). The transfer mechanism (20) has a continuously movable transfer member (6) which picks up the labels at one position and applies such labels to the objects at the second position, and the movement of the transfer member at a pick-up position may be at a rate and/or in a direction which differs from the rate and/or direction of the advancement of the backing tape.
