Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif (1) pour l'étiquetage de produits (2) individuels, en particulier de paquets ou de marchandises, comprenant : un système d'avance (3) servant au transport d'un produit (2) respectif le long d'un parcours de transport ; un système d'application d'étiquettes (4) muni d'une tête de soufflage (5) servant à l'application d'une étiquette (6) sur la surface du produit (2), la tête de soufflage (5) comportant des moyens de retenue (7) servant à fixer l'étiquette (6) dans une position de soufflage (II) et des moyens de soufflage (8) servant à produire un jet d'air comprimé orienté dans une direction de soufflage (A) de la position de soufflage (II) vers le système d'avance (3) ; et un système de distribution d'étiquettes (9) servant à fournir une étiquette (6) dans une position de distribution (I). L'invention vise à transférer de manière aussi simple que possible et avec précision des étiquettes (6) sur une surface à étiqueter d'un produit (2). À cet effet, le système d'application d'étiquettes (4) présente une unité d'alimentation (11) servant au transport de chaque étiquette (6) de la position de distribution (I) vers la position de soufflage (II), l'unité d'alimentation (11) présentant un élément de transport (12) et un moyen (14) de production d'une force de compression. L'invention concerne en outre un procédé pour l'étiquetage de produits (2) individuels.
