Abstract

The invention relates to the utilisation of a computer controlled engraving system for applying writings and images to sweets. A pattern serving as pixel or vector graphics is stored in a memory. A burin is guided over the surface of the product to be marked by means of a control unit. The pattern is introduced into the surface by removing the burin from the surface or bringing said burin into contact with the surface and by moving the product and the burin in relation to one another. A method can be used which is characterised in that several partial images having the same pattern are simultaneously produced by means of several burins.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft die Verwendung eines computergesteuer­ ten Graviersystems.The invention relates to the use of a computer controlled engraving system.

Aus der DE 196 46 813 A1 ist es bekannt, Schriften und Bilder mittels Laser auf Lebensmittel aufzubringen. Dieses Beschrif­ tungsverfahren ist vergleichsweise teuer, zudem anfällig gegen Verschmutzungen der Laseroptik.From DE 196 46 813 A1 it is known, writings and pictures applied to food by laser. This label The processing procedure is comparatively expensive and is also susceptible to Soiling of the laser optics.

Weiterhin ist es aus der Praxis bekannt, Bilder oder Schriften bei gegossenen oder gepreßten Lebensmittelprodukten durch entsprechende Gestaltung der Gieß- oder Preßform zu erzeu­ gen, z. B. die Reliefs in Schokolade. Diese Beschriftungstechnik hat den Nachteil, daß erhebliche Formkosten anfallen und daher keine Kleinserien wirtschaftlich vorteilhaft herstellbar sind. Zu­ dem ist die Umrüstung derartiger Formen mit einem erheblichen Zeitaufwand verbunden, so daß selbst bei größeren Beschrif­ tungsserien ein häufiger Wechsel wirtschaftlich nachteilig ist.Furthermore, it is known from practice, pictures or writings with cast or pressed food products to produce the appropriate design of the casting or pressing mold gene, e.g. B. the reliefs in chocolate. This labeling technique has the disadvantage that considerable molding costs are incurred and therefore no small series can be produced in an economically advantageous manner. To this is the retrofitting of such forms with a considerable Time involved, so that even with larger inscriptions a frequent change is economically disadvantageous.

Aus der US-PS 1,928,067 und aus der DE 196 13 383 C1 sind Verfahren zum Kennzeichnen von Lebensmitteln bekannt, wobei jeweils Stempel verwendet werden, die eine reliefartige Verfor­ mung der Oberfläche des Lebensmittels bewirken können. Die Anfertigung derartiger Stempel ist vergleichsweise kosten- und zeitaufwendig, auch das Umrüsten einer Produktionsanlage auf unterschiedliche Stempelmotive ist vergleichsweise zeitaufwen­ dig, so daß hier ähnliche Nachteile vorliegen wie bei den er­ wähnten Gieß- oder Preßformen.From US-PS 1,928,067 and from DE 196 13 383 C1 Method for labeling foods known, wherein stamps are used which have a relief-like shape the surface of the food. The Manufacturing such stamps is comparatively costly and time-consuming, even retrofitting a production facility different stamp motifs are comparatively time-consuming dig, so that there are similar disadvantages as with the he mentioned molds or dies.

Aus der DE 197 08 178 A1 ist es bekannt, flächige Gegenstände mit durchgehenden Löchern zu versehen, beispielsweise durch Stanzen oder Schneiden, wobei die einzelnen Löcher Bildpunk­ ten gleichkommen, die wie bei einer Punktmatrix insgesamt die gewünschte Darstellung, beispielsweise eine bildhafte Darstel­ lung, ergeben.DE 197 08 178 A1 discloses flat objects to provide through holes, for example through  Punching or cutting, the individual holes being pixel which, like a dot matrix, total the desired representation, for example a pictorial representation lung.

Aus der DE 197 20 877 A1 ist es bekannt, die polierte Oberflä­ che von Glas, Stein und anderen harten Materialien zu zerstö­ ren, wobei mittels eines Körners oder eines anderen Gegen­ standes Punkte erstellt werden, die in ihrer Gesamtheit die ge­ wünschte Abbildung ergeben.From DE 197 20 877 A1 it is known that the polished surface surface of glass, stone and other hard materials ren, being by means of a grain or other counter dots are created, which in their entirety meet the ge desired picture result.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, das Aufbringen von Schriften und Bildern auf Süßwaren auf preisgünstige, robuste und betriebssichere Weise, insbesondere vergleichsweise unan­ fällig gegen Verschmutzungen zu ermöglichen, wobei eine schnelle und flexible Umrüstung auf verschiedene Muster zur preisgünstigen Herstellung von Kleinserien möglich sein soll.The invention has for its object the application of Fonts and images on confectionery on inexpensive, robust and reliable manner, especially comparatively unsan due to allow contamination, whereby a quick and flexible changeover to different patterns inexpensive production of small series should be possible.

Diese der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Aufgabe wird durch die Verwendung eines computergesteuerten Graviersystems gelöst.This object of the invention is achieved by Solved using a computer controlled engraving system.

Die Erfindung schlägt mit anderen Worten vor, die Oberfläche der Süßwaren zu gravieren. Die dazu verwendete Spitze wird als "Gravierstichel" bezeichnet. Grundsätzlich kann ein Stichel­ block mit mehreren Sticheln verwendet werden, die einzeln an­ gesteuert werden. Einfacher ist demgegenüber die Ausgestal­ tung eines einzelnen Gravierstichels, wobei sich in Versuchen herausgestellt hat, daß auch mit einem derartig einzigen Gra­ vierstichel in vergleichsweise kurzer Zeit auch großflächige Mu­ ster erzeugt werden können.In other words, the invention proposes the surface to engrave the confectionery. The tip used for this is referred to as "engraving stylus". Basically, a prick block with multiple styluses can be used individually to be controlled. In contrast, the design is easier processing of a single engraving stylus, whereby in experiments has pointed out that even with such a single Gra Vierstichel in a comparatively short time also large Mu ster can be generated.

Dabei kann das zu beschreibende bzw. mit einem Muster zu versehende Produkt unter dem Gravierstichel taktweise oder kontinuierlich in einer vorgegebenen Längsrichtung bewegt werden und der Gravierstichel kann quer zu dieser Längsrich­ tung verfahren und wahlweise abgesenkt bzw. angehoben wer­ den, um an den jeweils gewünschten Stellen zur Erzielung des Musters den Kontakt mit der Produktoberfläche zu bewirken. Bei der Steuerung nur dieses einen Gravierstichels ist eine beson­ ders einfache Steuerung und eine optimale Höhenanpassung an die Oberflächenbeschaffenheit der Süßware möglich.It can be described or with a sample product in cycles or under the engraving stylus continuously moved in a predetermined longitudinal direction and the engraving stylus can cross this longitudinal direction movement and optionally lowered or raised  in order to achieve the Pattern to cause contact with the product surface. At the control of only this one engraving stylus is a special one easy control and optimal height adjustment the surface quality of the confectionery is possible.

Dabei kann vorgesehen sein, unterschiedlich konturierte oder ungleichmäßig konturierte Oberflächen zu gravieren, also im Gegensatz zu der eingangs erwähnten Schokolade, die z. B. als flache Schokoladentafel mit ebener Rückseite vorliegt, auch demgegenüber unregelmäßigere Oberflächen zu gravieren. Zu diesem Zweck kann eine berührungslose Abtastung der Ober­ fläche des zu kennzeichnenden Produktes vorgesehen sein, beispielsweise eine Abtastung mittels Radar oder mittels einer optischen Abtasteinrichtung. Auf diese Weise wird eine optimale Höhenanpassung für den Gravurkopf und den darin beweglich gelagerten Gravierstichel ermöglicht.It can be provided differently contoured or to engrave unevenly contoured surfaces, i.e. in Contrary to the chocolate mentioned above, which, for. B. as flat chocolate bar with a flat back, too to engrave more irregular surfaces. To For this purpose, contactless scanning of the upper area of the product to be labeled, for example a scan by means of radar or by means of a optical scanner. In this way, an optimal Height adjustment for the engraving head and the movable one stored engraving stylus enables.

Der Gravierstichel kann beheizt sein, um einen erleichterten Materialabtrag im Lebensmittelprodukt zu ermöglichen oder eine Verfärbung des Produktes (beispielsweise Bräunung bei Marzi­ pan) zu bewirken.The engraving stylus can be heated to make it easier Allow material removal in the food product or a Discoloration of the product (e.g. tanning at Marzi pan) to effect.

Zugunsten einer höheren Produktivität kann vorgesehen sein, mehrere Gravurköpfe gleichzeitig zu betreiben. Hierzu kann entweder ein größeres Muster in mehrere Teilmuster aufgeteilt werden, wobei jeweils ein Gravurkopf nur eines dieser Teilmu­ ster bearbeitet. Bei kleineren Mustern kann vorgesehen sein, daß mehrere Gravurköpfe gleichzeitig jeweils eigenständige Muster anfertigen.In favor of higher productivity, to operate several engraving heads at the same time. This can either split a larger pattern into several sub-patterns be, each with an engraving head only one of these parts most edited. With smaller patterns it can be provided that several engraving heads are each independent at the same time Make samples.

In jedem Fall wird durch die Graviertechnik die Reinheit des Produktes erhalten, es werden keine Zusatzstoffe, wie bei­ spielsweise Farbstoffe od. dgl., erforderlich. In any case, the purity of the Product received, there are no additives, as with for example, dyes or the like, required.  

Vorteilhaft kann eine Absaugung vorgesehen sein, die den beim Gravieren entstehenden Materialabtrag entfernt. Auf diese Wei­ se werden optische Verunreinigungen des Produktes durch die­ sen Materialabtrag vermieden, insbesondere bei ungeheizten Graviersticheln, bei denen das Produkt nicht verändert, sondern lediglich entfernt wird, kann das abgesaugte Material ggf. wieder in den Produktionskreislauf zurückgeführt werden, so daß sich durch das Gravieren keine Materialverluste ergeben.Suction can advantageously be provided, which at Engraving resulting material removal removed. In this way This will result in optical contamination of the product due to the Material removal avoided, especially with unheated Engraving styluses where the product does not change, but is only removed, the extracted material can possibly again be returned to the production cycle so that there is no loss of material due to the engraving.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Verwendung eines computerge­ steuerten Graviersystems wird die Ausgestaltung von komple­ xen Bildern und Objekten auf Süßwaren ermöglicht. Um eine Grauabstufung, einen guten Kontrast, eine Flächenfüllung sowie eine Schattierung und einen dynamischen Bildaufbau zu errei­ chen, kann der Bildaufbau nach dem Scan-Vektor- oder nach dem Scan-Rasterverfahren arbeiten. Insbesondere bei vektori­ sierten Bildern ist eine problemlose Anpassung des Bildes an unterschiedliche gewünschte Größen möglich.The inventive use of a computer controlled engraving system, the design of comple xen images and objects on confectionery. To one Gradation of gray, a good contrast, a surface fill as well to achieve shading and dynamic composition Chen, the image structure after the scan vector or after the scanning raster process.
