Abstract:
A label applicator, system, and method for applying labels to curved sides of objects, such as cell culture dishes, is provided. In an aspect, the label applicator includes a body having a first side and a second side, the second side comprising a curved surface; a base; at least one first resilient member having a defined length between a first end and a second end; and at least one second resilient member engaging the body and the base, wherein the second end of the at least one first resilient member is configured to removably attach to a label and, when the label is in contact with the second end and an object, to apply a pressure to the label that increases as the at least one first resilient member and at least one second resilient member are compressed. The system may also include a label verifier and/or label verification system.

Claim (Index 3):
The method of applying a label to a curved surface of  claim 1 , further comprising\n monitoring the increasing application force; and responsive to monitoring the increasing application force, halting movement of the label applicator towards the object when the increasing application force exceeds a predetermined limit.
