Abstract
A method for manufacturing discrete elements such as labels, borne by a carrier sheet, the method including passing an element sheet from which said elements are to be formed along a first path of travel; passing a carrier sheet along a second path of travel spaced from the first path of travel in a first course and retained in substantial facing engagement with the element sheet in a second course; applying adhesive to one of the sheets prior to the second course in discrete zones individually having positions corresponding to the positions of the planar elements to be formed; and cutting the element sheet in the second course outwardly of the discrete zones of adhesive to form discrete elements adhesively borne by the carrier sheet.
