A system includes a flow line connected to a fluid and a suction line in fluid communication with the flow line, wherein the fluid is to carry cuttings from a borehole. The system also includes a flow line pump to move fluid via the suction line onto a surface of a cuttings separation conveyor, wherein the surface of the cuttings separation conveyor comprises a separation screen. The system also includes a cuttings container positioned to collect a portion of the cuttings from the separation conveyor

A generative scent design system has a frame, an input receiver, an input processor, a dispenser, a container, and a filling platform. The dispenser has a dosing station and a storage compartment. The dosing station and the filling platform are attached to the frame. The dosing station has a plurality of pumps. The heating system regulates its associated pump's temperature. The storage compartment has scent vessels that contain a respective scent. Each pump with an inlet and an outlet is associated with a respective heating system and respective scent; in fluid communication through the inlet with the scent vessel containing the respective scent; and configured to dispense its respective scent through the outlet. The container is movably positioned on the filling platform to receive the respective scent from each pump. The input receiver receives data. The input processor calculates the data to determine a formulation of respective scents.

The present subject matter relates to a label lid for sealing an opening in a packaging container. The label comprises a facestock layer, a removable adhesive layer, a heat-seal layer, and an optional release coating, wherein the removable adhesive layer does not include a release liner. The removable adhesive layer can be coated on the heat-seal layer or the facestock layer. Optionally, a release coating can be applied to the heat-seal layer or the facestock layer. The composition of the layers used in specific arrangements provides unique performance characteristics for the label for improved sealing, reclosure, and matrix stripping properties.

The present disclosure relates to a container sleeving device, system and method for arranging sleeves on a plurality of containers, wherein the sleeves are made of tubular foil material made to pass over the circumferential outer surface of a spreading element, the container sleeving device comprising:—a spreading element configured to spread open the tubular foil material passing from a proximal spreading element portion (31) towards a distal spreading element portion (34);—a cutting unit (25) for cutting the spread-open tubular foil material to form a sleeve;—a sleeve discharge unit (28) configured to accelerate the sleeve to move over the outer surface of the distal spreading element portion so as to discharge the sleeve towards a container; wherein the distal spreading element portion and/or the proximal spreading element portion has one or more pressure regulating openings configured to regulate the pressure close to the outer surface of the distal spreading element portion and/or of the proximal spreading element portion.

A machine (10, 224, 258, 274, 292, 310) is selectively operative to apply markings such as labels, sleeves, decorations and indicia to containers (58, 130, 162, 254). The machine includes a lower conveyor (LC) (14) and an upper conveyor (UC) (28). LC shuttles (46) are selectively movable around an LC track (16). UC shuttles (52) are selectively movable around a UC track (30). The LC and UC shuttles are selectively movable to engage a container vertically intermediate of respective LC and UC shuttles. In the container engaged position each container is selectively rotatably and linearly movable so as to be positioned in engagement with applicators (108, 256, 296, 298, 300, 314, 316, 318, 320, 322, 324). The applicators are selectively operative to apply markings to respective containers in operative engagement therewith in a precise and repeatable manner.

The invention relates to a device (10A-10E) for labeling containers (12). The device (10A-10E) has a container conveyor (14) for conveying containers (12) and at least one label dispenser (18) for providing labels. The device (10A-10E) has at least one planar drive system (16A-16E) which is configured so as to transport labels from the at least one label dispenser (18) to the container conveyor (14) in order to apply the label onto the containers (12). The device can improve flexibility during labeling processes.

A rotating drum for use in manufacturing vapor-generating articles may include a drum body. A plurality of grooves may be disposed in an outer face of the drum body. A seat may be tractably-mounted in each one of the plurality of grooves. The seat may include a seat groove that is structured and arranged to receive and hold a rigid casing of a vapor-generating article. The seat may be composed of a material that is softer than a material of the rigid casing.

A system for packaging an item with an identifier comprises an identifier adder, a labeler, and a packager. The identifier adder adds one or more types of silica-based tags to an item, wherein each type of silica-based tag has a first signature readable using an optical spectroscopic reader. A label is generated based at least in part on reading the one or more types of silica-based tags of the item using the optical spectroscopic reader. The label includes goods info. The packager includes the label on a package, and wherein the packager includes the item in the package.
