Abstract (en)
A method for applying labels to the inside of containers and a label applicator comprises moving containers through a packaging process, moving a vacuum head (2) by a translator mechanism to a first position to pick up a label, moving the translation mechanism to a second position where a second label is fed to a second vacuum head (3), advancing the heads to a third position, a registration position moving the labels at the same speed as that of the moving containers, entering the containers and to the fourth position where the labels are blown off the vacuum heads and onto the inside of the containers, returning to the first position and continuously repeating the process. <IMAGE>
