Definitions

  • the subject of the invention is a method more particularly intended for overprinting already printed packaging.
  • the printing applies in particular to corrections, additions, and / or modifications on packaging.
  • the invention makes it possible to correct a printing error. It allows to rehabilitate a package.
  • grinding packs are located in particular in the agribusiness and retail, industry, perfume, cosmetology and finally pharmacy.
  • the present invention relates to a method more particularly intended for overprinting and which consists in occulting, by stamp printing, with specific inks, an existing support already printed for overprinting a text or a pattern.
  • This method includes the use of pad printing machines in an automated context.
  • the supports are stored in a dispenser and then, at an electronically controlled rate, taken by a conveyor to a printing machine. At this point, the supports are positioned on the different printing and heating stations for overprinting. When the supports have undergone all the different phases of the operation, they are released in a receptacle where they are counted.
  • This method includes the use of pad printing machines in an automated context.
  • the media are stored in a feed cart.
  • the supports are positioned on the different printheads for overprinting.
  • the supports have undergone all the different phases of the operation, they are released on the evacuation plan where they are controlled by the operators
  • the invention relates to a coating composition useful as a coating of varnish, which contains a number average molecular weight alkyd resin of between about 500 and 2000, and to a polydispersity of less than about 2. Once annealed, this composition is substantially stable from the point of view of color. It is substantially flexible and can be used as a varnish on a container body.
  • the invention also relates to a substrate coated with said composition.
  • JP 2001 232980 Problem to be solved: Provide an inexpensive printed card and method of manufacture in which the cost of materials is reduced and wherein the yield of printed circuit board manufacturing is improved.
  • the central portion 11 is a blank sheet not transparent and the upper sheet 13 is a transparent sheet.
  • This operation by a machine with two rotating positions, does not increase production rates.
  • the method and the machine for the implementation can, according to the state of the art, overprint 1000 (thousand) pieces per hour.
  • the method and the machine make it possible to overprint four to five times more pieces per hour.
  • the invention relates to an automated process for printing existing packaging, already printed or not, and being exclusively in the form of cut materials.
  • the method involves printing with specific inks and different colors a text or pattern printed with the stamp. These cases of different materials can be folded, pre-glued, flat.
  • This printing process makes it possible to position a correction or a printing addition at a marked location by using the technique of stamp printing.
  • the process according to the invention makes it possible to considerably increase production rates and to overprint flat or glued cases wherever they are.
  • the print head is fixed on crossed tables which allow it axial and longitudinal displacement.
  • the print head can print directly on the de-stacker.
  • the receiving tray of the case is relatively rigid because the force exerted by the buffer is 200 working-copyton, but as light as possible so that the drive motor can move it within the desired time.
  • the case is pushed by a sheet and sucked by suction cups.
  • the suction cups are placed under the receiving tray which allows to stamp the entire surface of the case.
  • the receiving tray is equipped with several suckers disposed under said plate, upstream, the suction cups are rectangular and downstream, the suction cups are square. There are, upstream, two rectangular suction cups and downstream a dozen square suction cups, the suction cups sucking air on the receiving tray to hold the case well before and after printing by the print head, then , right after the impression, the suction is reversed, the air is pushed back by the suction cups which allows to release the case of the receiving tray so that it falls on the supply tray of the heating tunnel.
  • the figure 1 is a schematic view of a production line viewed from the side.
  • the figure 2 is a schematic view of a production line seen from above.
  • the figure 3 is a schematic view of a production line rear view of the conveyor belt side.
  • the figure 4 is a detail view in section of the de-stacker.
  • the figure 11 is a perspective view from below of the receiving plate, cases to be overprinted.
  • This invention is innovative in its system de-stacker that allows not only to select the cases one by one in a precise way, spotted and very fast by its type of training, but to allow the printing of the case directly on his system This is to avoid any type of manipulation between the power unit and the printing area and to print anywhere on the case.
  • the print head 1 is fixed on crossed tables 6 which allow it an axial and longitudinal displacement.
  • the operator positions the cases on the supply conveyor 2.
  • the cases are routed to the cage where the guides 8, 9 have been previously set to the format of the case.
  • the plate 11 moves back and forth between the cage and the print head by means of the brushless linear motor 10.
  • the case is pushed by the thick steel plate of the case which During this time suction will be taken by suction cups 13.
  • suction cups 13 Once the tray is positioned under the print head, it will be stamped. Once the case is printed, the tray goes back. With the stop of suction and the speed of return of the tray, the case falls by gravity on the conveyor of the heating tunnel 4.
  • This tunnel is endowed with several technologies of drying: one is forced hot air and the other Ultra Violet allowing to apply several types of ink on the cases.
  • Once the holster is dried, it will be routed to the stacker 5.
  • the re-stacker allows the storage of stacked cases so that the operator can easily repackage them in cardboard.
  • the process is innovative because the print head can print directly on the destacking system. For this, it was necessary to design a relatively rigid plate 11 because the force exerted by the buffer is 2000 N but as light as possible so that the drive motor 10 can move it in the desired time. The case is pushed by a sheet metal and sucked by suction cups 13, 14, (visible figure 11 ).
  • Brushless digital axis drive motors now allow high load movements with high speeds and high accuracy.
  • the plate 11 is 14 kilograms and moves 35cm in 0.3 seconds.
  • the rapid return of the tray 11 and the suction stop are sufficient for the holster does not return with the tray to the de-stacker 3 and falls with gravity on the conveyor 16 of the drying tunnel 4.
  • the complete cycle is 0.9 second (faster than the print head: 1 s).
  • the stains are done in masked time which allows a printing rate of 3600imp. /hour.
  • the cases 15 being sucked from below, the printing pad 1 (print head) can be done on the entire surface of the case.
  • the operator positions the cases 15 on the supply conveyor 2.
  • the cases 15 are conveyed by conveyor belt on a cage where the guides 8, 9, which have been adjusted to the format of the case, feed the sliding plate 11.
  • This sliding plate moves back and forth according to the arrows F1 and F2 between the cage 12 and the print head 1 and this thanks to the linear motor 10.
  • the plate 11 comes to position the printing case 15 under the print head 1. Once the plate 11 is well positioned under the print head 1, printing is done with the buffer thanks to the vertical displacement of the printer. print head 1.
  • the plate 11 goes back, according to the arrow F2, the air sucked by the suction cups is stopped and is reversed according to the arrows F3 and F4, shown in FIG. figure 8 , so that the case 15 is lifted from the plate 11 and falls by gravity on the conveyor 16 of the heating tunnel or drying tunnel 4.
  • This tunnel 4 makes it possible to dry the cases 15 which will convey the dried case 15 to the stacker 5.
