Abstract (en)

In a machine for producing labels, a cutting station comprising a vertically-movable cutting rule or die disposed above, and adapted to cooperate with, a label stock/backing strip support means constituted by a horizontally-extending curved or arcuate element rotatable about a vertical axis. The arrangement is such that the label stock/backing strip is supported, during the cutting of the label stock, by the rotatable support element which, through the intermediary of the label stock/backing strip, makes continually-changing opposed point contact with the cutting rule or die. Substantially less energy is required for cutting compared with existing label producing machines.
