Abstract (en)
[origin: US6578475B1] A method and device for labeling or printing stackable flowerpots (2), wherein the flowerpots (2) are fed to a magazine feed device (3) so that a stack (4a) of flowerpots (2) to be labeled or printed is formed in the magazine feed device (3), wherein the stack (4a) of flowerpots to be labeled or printed is at least partially separated into individual flowerpots (2) and the flowerpot (2) located in the at least partially unstacked position is labeled or printed, after which, the labeled or printed flowerpot (2) is fed to a stack (4b) of labeled or printed flowerpots (2). The direction of conveyance (F) and the direction (S) of the stack of the flowerpots (2) are substantially identical immediately before and after labeling or printing and wherein the stack (4b) of labeled or printed flowerpots (2) are moved out in a substantially continuous manner by means of an evacuation device (8), thereby enabling a simple, fast method for rapidly labeling or printing flowerpots (2).
