Definitions

  • the present invention relates to linerless labels, more specifically the design or shape of these labels and a method for cutting the labels.
  • Linerless labels as any labels, are used in many different areas of industry e.g. logistics, food and air travel.
  • the labels are often printed in connection to the application of the label.
  • a part of the label may be pre-printed, e.g. decorated with a company brand or colours, and then only e.g. a date is printed in close relation to the application of the label.
  • the label is e.g. cut by a printer, pre-perforated and separated by hand, or separated by hand on a cutting edge.
  • a linerless label comprises a paper web which is coated with silicon on the front, and adhesive on the backside.
  • the linerless label does thus not comprise a backing material or release liner, from which it is punched, as a traditional label. Instead, the silicon surface on the front side serves as the backing, and prevents the layers of labels to become attached to each other when the label web is wound to a roll.
  • the printer may cut and/or print the web anywhere along the longitudinal extension of the web.
  • the printer requires an indication on where to cut the label, i.e. the location in which one label ends and the next one begins in order not to destroy the décor, or to print over a perforation.
  • the top of the décor of a previous label should not end up on the lower part of the current label. Therefore, it is important to have a reliable method to distinguish where to separate one label from another, i.e. inform the printer of the longitudinal position of the web, to get a label where the print is correctly located.
  • the longitudinal position of the label web is determined e.g. by sending light through the label web which is detected on the other side of the web and analyzed.
  • this method of detecting the space between two labels on a web is not applicable, since there is no space between the labels. Therefore, another way of determining the longitudinal position is required when working with linerless labels.
  • a black-mark or a black-line is used to solve the problem of longitudinally locating the position of the linerless web.
  • a photocell in the printer reads the black mark or line and - can hence deduce 5 the longitudinal position of the web and perform printing and/or cutting of the web accordingly.
  • a problem with this method is that the black mark or line is visible on the finished label if it is put on the front side of the label. It may be mistaken for information and may confuse e.g. customers buying a product equipped with the label. If, on the other hand, the black mark is put on the backside of the label, the production gets very expensive. This is due to the additional step of printing the black mark which requires a printing press and a separate process, if it is put on a label web which is otherwise not pre-printed.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a new type of linerless label which is improved over prior art and which eliminates or at least mitigates the drawbacks discussed above. More specifically, an object of the invention is to provide a linerless label longitudinal position of which can be determined by a printer in a visually pleasing and cost effective way.
  • a method of producing a linerless label web comprises the step of providing recesses in the web characterized in that the process step comprises cutting out and removing a slip of material between two label webs, wherein the slip is provided with protrusions which protrude into the label web and which are mirror images of the recesses.
  • the recesses are detectable by a sensor.
  • the provision of the recesses is performed in the same process step as a single web is cut out from a roll of material. That has the advantage that no extra production steps are required.
  • the recesses are provided along the edge of the web.
  • the recesses, or markings are provided in the inner of the web, separate from the edge. That would bring the advantage of making the web less exposed to rupture.
  • a linerless label web provided with adhesive and markings as well as optional perforations and/or pre-printed décor is provided.
  • the web is configured to be separated into individual labels and optionally printed.
  • the markings are detectable by a sensor to determine when the web is in a correct longitudinal position for transverse cutting for obtaining the separation.
  • the markings comprise recesses. This web is advantageous since the markings are made without printing. They are obtained at the same time as the web is produced, i.e. no extra manufacturing steps are necessary.
  • the recesses are provided along an edge of the web.
  • An advantage of this positioning is that it is easy to adjust the photocell 5 in order to be aligned with the marking.
  • Another advantage of providing the recess along the edge of the web is that holes are avoided. By making holes so called “confetti” is created. A large amount of holes create large amounts of confetti, which is cumbersome to clean out of the machinery.
  • the recesses, or markings are provided in the inner of the web, separate from the longitudinal edge. That position would make the web less exposed to rupture.
  • the web may comprise a linerless label web produced without a release liner, or label backing.
  • a linerless web has many advantages, e.g. more label on a roll, no liner waste, and no transportation of unnecessary material.
  • the adhesive is hot melt adhesive or emulsion adhesive. These are both favourable adhesives for a label.
  • a piece of a label web 1 according to one embodiment of the invention is shown.
  • the shown piece of label web 1 is a linerless label web provided with adhesive on the entire back side of the web.
  • the web 1 is provided with adhesive only on certain predefined parts.
  • the web 1 may in one embodiment be predominantly covered by adhesive.
  • the web 1 is provided with a gripping edge, free from adhesive.
  • the web is provided with one or more areas free from adhesive, e.g. around a perforation.
  • the adhesive used is preferably hot melt adhesive or emulsion adhesive.
  • the web 1 is provided with four recesses or indentations 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d.
  • the recesses 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d are provided at regular intervals throughout the entire length of the label web 1.
  • the area between 5 two lengthwise adjacent recesses 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d forms a label 8a, 8b, 8c.
  • the recesses 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d may be provided along both, or, alternatively along only one edge of the label web 1.
  • the labels 8b, 8c in the figure are pre-decorated with prints 7a, 7b, in this case with a star. This is of course an example; it could be a company brand or colours, or anything else.
  • the pre-decoration is provided during the manufacturing process of the label web 1.
  • the web 1 is then supplied to a user who will put it in a printer 20.
  • the printer 20 will finish the label 8a, 8b, 8c by, optionally, print further information on the label, e.g. a date, a serial number, or the like. Finally, the printer 20 cuts the label 8a, 8b, 8c.
  • the printer 20 knows the longitudinal location of the label 8a, 8b, 8c, since the printer 20 otherwise may print or cut the web 1 in the wrong longitudinal position, which may result in part of the décor ending up on an adjacent label 8a, 8b, 8c, or the print being misplaced vis-à-vis the predecoration.
  • This is symbolized in the figure by the dotted lines 6, which, as can be seen, runs right across the pre-decorations 7a, 7b. This does not only give a poor visual impression, it may also result in important information provided in the pre-decoration being lost.
  • the correct cutting line is symbolized by the dotted line 5.
  • the printer 20 In order to inform the printer 20 of the longitudinal position of the label web 1, the printer 20 needs some kind of information regarding the longitudinal positioning. According to the invention, this information is provided by the indentations, or recesses 25 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, in the label web 1. Two longitudinally separated pair of recesses 3a, 3c; 3b, 3d are shown in the figure, but corresponding pairs of recesses are provided with regular intervals over the entire length of the web 1.
  • the printer 20 is equipped with a reader or sensor 21, e.g. a photocell, which detects the position of the indentations, e.g. by sensing when the edge line 4 of the web is broken by any of the indentations 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d. Based on the information, the printer 20 is enabled to provide printing and/or cutting at the correct longitudinal position of the web 1.
  • the web may be pre-perforated.
  • the printer 20 may use the information of the longitudinal position of the web to print the label on the correct position and thereafter stop the label such that the label may be conveniently torn by hand at the perforation.
  • the printer 20 identifies the line 5, it perforates the label web 1 and the individual label 8a, 8b, 8c may be torn off by hand.
  • the label 8a, 8b, 8c is pre-perforated and the task of the printer 20 is to stop the web 1 in the right longitudinal position 5 in order for the operator to tear of the label by hand.
  • a further possibility is that the web 1 is pre-perforated and the printer 20 uses the recesses in order to print where it is supposed to.
  • the print is provided in a predefined area.
  • the indentations may e.g. be square 10, rounded 11, triangular 12 or shaped with a tip 13.
  • Fig. 6 three partial webs 1a, 1b, 1c of labels are shown as they look during production.
  • the manufacturing steps are further described in the flow chart in Fig. 7 .
  • the first step I of the production process is to provide a roll of material 15 with an optional pre-printed decor.
  • the roll 15 is provided with a silicon layer, on top of any prints, i.e. on the front side of the finished label.
  • step III is to provide the roll 15 with adhesive, on the rear side of the finished label.
  • step IV the webs 1a, 1b, 1c are punched out from the roll 15 of material, which has a significantly larger width than the individual label webs 1a, 1b, 1c. A number of label webs 1a, 1b, 1c are thus produced at the same time, next to each other.
  • a slip 14 of material dashed in the figure, between two label webs 1a, 1b, 1c are cut out and removed.
  • This slip 14 is provided with protrusions 3 protruding into the label web 1a, 1b, 1c which are mirror images of the indentations 3a, 3b, 3c, shown in Fig. 1 .
  • the protrusions 3 and indentations 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d have rounded shapes and are located in pairs, one on each side and at the same height of the label web 1a, 1b, 1c.
  • the markings 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d are not necessarily provided along both edges of the web 1.
  • the use of indentations is an advantage over the use of holes as markings, since the punching of a hole in the 5 label web "confetti" is created. Large amounts of confetti are thus produced when manufacturing labels. This is hard to remove from the machinery and causes a need for extra equipment in the form of suction or blowing, which means additional costs.
  • the webs 1a, 1b and 1c may be prepared to be separated into individual labels 8, by e.g. a perforation.
  • the dotted lines 5 in Fig. 6 show where the separations are supposed to end up.
  • the labels 8 may either be partly separated during the manufacturing process, e.g. by a perforation, or when in use, e.g. cut by a printer 20 or by stopping the web 1a, 1b, 1c at a certain location, whereupon the label 8 may be torn off by hand.
  • step IV the label web 1 is finished.
  • a web of self-adhesive material to be printed is provided.
  • the material is provided with perforations and/or pre-printed decor and markings.
  • the web is designed to be separated into individual labels and/or being printed by a printer, said printer comprises a sensor which detects said markings to determine when the web is in the correct longitudinal position for printing and/or cutting.
  • the markings are recesses detectable by the sensor.
  • the inventive concept is not limited to the embodiments described above; many modifications are feasible within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
  • the material of the label may be paper, plastic, metal, fibres or any other suitable material. It is also possible to combine said materials, i.e. laminates.
