Abstract: Process and device for delabeling of plastic containers by immersing them in a liquid bath heated to above the disorientation temperature of the containers and thereafter separating the loose labels (optionally cups) from the container bodies by bringing them on an inclined sieve vibrating in such a way that when the screen deck is in its highest position in the vibrating motion, the component of motion parallel to the screen deck is directed toward the highest point of the screen.
