Abstract: A safety lifting device for positioning a labelling unit in a vertical direction (Z) in relation to a flow of objects where the labelling unit is arranged for printing labels and/or applying labels to the objects. The lifting device includes a linear actuator, a balancing unit, a drive unit connected to the linear actuator, and a movable section. The labelling unit is connected to the movable section. The linear actuator is connected to the movable section and arranged to control the position of the labelling unit. The balancing unit is arranged to counterbalance the gravitational force exerted on the linear actuator. The movable section of the lifting device includes an upper stand unit, and the lifting device further includes a lower stand unit. The upper stand unit is movably arranged in relation to the lower stand unit in the vertical direction.

Abstract: A system for printing and applying labels to a flow of objects, including a labelling unit, an object transporting device, an object detection sensor, and a control unit, wherein the labelling unit comprises a label printing unit for printing labels to be applied to the objects, wherein the object transporting device is transporting individual objects in a random flow to the labelling unit in an object transporting direction, wherein the object detection sensor is arranged upstream the labelling unit and is detecting a position of the objects when they are transported past the object detection sensor towards the labelling unit, wherein two directly after each other transported objects arranged on the object transporting device are separated by a separation distance, wherein the separation distance is calculated by the control unit based on position detection by the object detection sensor of reference points between a preceding object and a directly subsequent object being transported on the object transporti

Abstract: A method and an arrangement to apply labels on marking objects which are transported on a track. By only two swinging arms, the output printed label is transported away from the label printer, in a first direction of travel, so that the adhesive side of the label is facing the first direction of travel of the label applicator plate, and in an opposite second direction of travel, so that the printed side of the printed label is faces the second direction of travel of the label applicator plate. Continued motion actuation of the label applicator plate by turning the swinging arm carrying the applicator plate and, where appropriate, rotation of the applicator plate provides transportation of the label to and delivery of the label at and application of the label on the marking object with the adhesive side of the label facing the marking object.
