  • Spot laminator with charging bar
    Patent number: 6808593
    Abstract: A charging bar applies a static charge to a printed label as it is fed in to a grounded adhesive applicator roll. The charged label is drawn to the grounded roll, and thereby obtains even coating of adhesive on the underside of the label, while avoiding contamination of the printed surface of the label with adhesive. The adhesive coated label is carried by a transfer roll to a laminating nip where it is adhered to a corrugated substrate.
