Apparatus and methods for fulfillment of patient prescription orders by adapting a standard or stock container pre-filled with medication or the like for use as a patient-specific container through precise application of patient-specific information to the pre-filled container. Precise placement of the patient-specific information to the pre-filled container enables pharmacy management to fully utilize valuable information provided with the pre-filled container, thereby improving the quality of service to the patient while making the process of prescription order fulfillment more efficient. In general, preferred embodiments comprise control apparatus and information-application apparatus. In embodiments, the information-application apparatus is adapted to place a patient-specific label on the container. Preferred forms of the information-application apparatus include a label printer and a positioner. The preferred printer applies patient-specific information on a label. The preferred positioner orients the pre-filled container to receive the label from the printer such that information provided with the container is available for use.

An automated edge band application machine has a board drive assembly and an opposed caster wheel that together capture and move a work piece edge into engagement with a rotating roller banding guide with edge banding captured between. An adhesive affixes the edge banding to the work piece responsive thereto. An edging detector is located along the path of the work piece edge, in a position in advance of the board drive assembly, and is configured to detect a presence of edge band on the edge of the work piece. When the edging detector detects edging, or at a precise distance along the edge band thereafter, a cutting die assembly severs the edge band. The board drive assembly automatically adjusts to varying thickness work pieces, engages with a work piece major surface, and rotates in synchrony with a drive spindle assembly and the rotating roller banding guide.
