From: Design News | Date: March 2, 1998| Author: Lewis, John | Copyright information

Engineers at Eastman Kodak have applied the principles of Bernoulli's law towards the construction of a labeling machine that applies pressure-sensitive adhesive labels. The new machine utilizes positive air pressure to achieve placement accuracy.

Kodak's positive-pressure label applicator precisely positions thin, flexible product labels

Rochester, NY--Bernoulli's law states: The higher the speed of a flowing fluid or gas, the lower the pressure. As the speed decrease...
