Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012107588A1] There is disclosed a labelling machine (1) for applying at least one first label (2) on at least one first item (3), comprising: a conveyor (6) which may be fed with the first item (3) to be labelled, is mobile to transfer the first item (3) along a labelling path (P), and is adapted to output the labelled first item (3); at least one first forming spindle (22) which may be fed with one first label (2) and can rotate about an axis (D) to determine the winding of the first label (2) on the first spindle (22); and at least one first sealing element (26) actuatable to weld opposite edges (48; 49) of the first label (2) wound on said first spindle (22) so as to form a first tubular element (4); the first spindle (22) and the first sealing element (26) are integrally mobile along: a first forward run, along which the first spindle (22) receives, in use, the first label (2); and a first return run, along which the first tubular element (4) is made available to the first item (3) moving forward on the conveyor (6).
