Abstract
An in-mold labeling apparatus and method has a label magazine for dispensing a plurality of labels in sequence on an endless belt transfer conveyor. A first transfer head removes the labels from the magazine in sequence and places the labels on the conveyor. A drive member indexes the conveyor to space the labels on the conveyor in a direction parallel to the cavity spacing by an amount corresponding to the spacing between the cavities. A carriage is disposed for movement from a first position adjacent the transfer conveyor to a second position adjacent the cavities of the split blow mold. The carriage has at least two second transfer heads operable in the first position of the carriage to pick up labels from the transfer conveyor and operable in the second position to deposit the labels into the mold cavities.
