Abstract (en)

A label applying device comprising a pad (7) of elastic material, with internal suction (9) to retain the labels (5), moveable with linear motion from a label pick up position to a position for contact application of the label on the object to be labelled, the linear movement of said pad being obtained by means of an electric motor (20), controlled by a microprocessor (22), through a system of pulleys (19,21) and a belt (18), an optoelectonic sensor (25) being situated at the corner of the pad to detect the presence of the label and its approach thereto following deformation of the pad when this comes into contact with the object to be labelled. <IMAGE>
