Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Labels are permanently attached to a substrate (24), e.g., a tissue cassette, by use of a staking device (1). The device comprises a staker assembly (2) and a cassette fixture assembly (4). The cassette fixture assembly includes a slot (20) and a clamping assembly (31) for securing the cassette (15) within the device. The staker assembly includes a set of probes (72, 74) that are heated and sequentially moved into a position to burn a hole in a label (53) that is provisionally attached to the cassette, and then the substrate is melted and displaced through the hole to form a collar bond that permanently attaches the label to the cassette. The label remains attached to the cassette when exposed to harsh environmental conditions, e.g., high heat, high humidity, solvents, etc.
