Abstract

Systems and methods for applying decorations onto substrates. Decorations can be transported on a web along the web path to an application station at which the decorations are applied to substrates. Movement of substrates through the application station can be controlled by rollers that are movable to permit and/or prevent entry to the application station and/or exit from the application station. The rollers can urge a substrate into contact with a decoration, and movement of the decoration and web at the application station can cause rotation of the substrate during decoration transfer.
