A labelling device having a label dispenser and transfer device for transferring a row of labels delivered to the transfer device to an article web. The transfer device may include at least one vertically adjustable slide assembly mounted thereon for pressing the labels onto the article web, and the slide assembly may comprise a base plate and a plurality of pressing elements. The slide assembly may further comprise at least one cassette module assembled with the base plate, and one or more of the pressing elements may be arranged on each of the cassette modules.

This invention relates to a labelling apparatus (1) and method for labelling different shapes, sizes and material types of packaging (3, 36) such as cardboard or plastics material boxes, plastics or other material bottles and sachets all containing medicaments being dispensed. The labelling apparatus (1) includes a conveyor means (4) having a receiving end for receiving an article (3, 36) to be labelled from a chute (2) and a discharge end for discharging the article (3, 36) once labelled to a receiving container (9), a label applicator (15) for attaching a label (29) to the article and a label securing means (25) for securely forcing the label (29) onto the article.

A labeling system includes a pasting unit having a first mechanical arm adapted to pick up a label to be pasted, at least one visual device configured to guide the first mechanical arm to paste the label on an object, and at least one scanning device adapted to scan the label pasted on the object.

A labeler comprises at least one pusher assembly for pressing labels onto an article web, the pusher assembly being mounted to be adjustable in height. The pusher assembly comprises a base plate, at least one pin cartridge connected to the base plate, and several press-on pins that are received by the pin cartridge and that are mounted at the pin cartridge in a slidable manner between a respective extended position and a retracted position. The press-on pins are each formed as integrally manufactured injection molded parts.

A system and method for protecting biological or other material from contamination through the steps of filling, freeze-drying, packaging, storing and use are disclosed. A system can include a flexible container, a membrane configured to transmit air or solvent vapor out of the flexible container, and a membrane frame supporting the membrane and engaged with at least one column member. The at least one column member can be configured to maintain the membrane and the membrane frame a spaced distance from one or more contents received within the flexible container. Upon application of a downward force, the at least one column member can assume a collapsed configuration. A method can include inserting a biological material, for example, into a flexible container, freeze-drying the biological material, moving the freeze-dried biological material to a portion of the flexible container that includes at least one port, and sealing the biological material within the portion.

An automatic labeling production line for solid state disk includes a production conveyor belt, a fixture disposed on the production conveyor belt and provided with a fixture code, and a loading mechanism provided with a product scanning mechanism detecting the memory and marking out a first defective memory, a first fixture scanning mechanism, a first and a second recycling mechanism recycling a defective memory, an automatic labeling mechanism, a visual inspection mechanism, a second fixture scanning mechanism identifying the fixture code, and an unloading mechanism unloading the memory which are arranged along the production conveyor belt in turn. The first fixture scanning mechanism scans the fixture code and records the original code and the corresponding fixture code. The visual inspection mechanism detects the memory and marks out a second defective memory. Thus, the production line is simplified, automatic labeling for memory is achieved, and the label process is more flexible.
