Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008028524A1] In a method for the positionally accurate application of labels (3) on bottles, cans or similar containers in relation to at least one container-typical design feature (4), the container-typical design feature of each container (2) which is moved past at least one camera (15) on a transport element (8) is detected using at least one image detection and processing system by way of said camera. The orientation and/or the actual form of the container-typical design feature on each container are/is detected by way of the image detection and processing system (4, 15) and the transfer instant of the label to the respective container is controlled from this in such a way that the label is positioned there in an optimum manner in relation to the design feature after the application.
