Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to the field of printing on objects and, more particularly, to a method of printing objects on an article printing apparatus.
  • the printable objects can be made of different materials, for example. Plastic, ceramic, glass, wood, metal.
  • the printing of plastic parts, or their surfaces can be done by using different printing technologies.
  • Known methods are the conventional printing methods, such as the offset pad or screen printing process.
  • Ink printers are characterized by the selective application of liquid, in particular an ink jet, to a recording material, wherein the ink printer is a matrix printer in which the deliberate firing or deflection of small ink droplets produces a print pattern on a surface, whereby the conventional ink printers are not used Printing of plastic parts are suitable.
  • the plastic parts are electronics housing / housing covers for interface technology and labels, so-called self-adhesive or clip-on identification strips, identification cards, Zackb sources, Einsteck Proceedings, sign plates, terminal block markings, marking sleeves or other shaped parts for marking or marking of, for example, terminal blocks, printed terminals of all kinds and converters, just to name a few.
  • the labels or signs are, depending on their shape, detachably fixed on various types of label carriers, with labels or labels in film-like shape are releasably adhered to tape-shaped label carriers.
  • Plastic signs or labels in a particularly ausgestalteter shape are arranged in retaining devices, in particular frame-like lettering carriers and, for example, attached to these with predetermined breaking points.
  • the retaining devices thus contain moldings that are unsuitable or too small due to their shape to be labeled separately in a printer. They are therefore bound to a carrier element, wherein the carrier element has a format which can be conveyed by the printer or the transport device.
  • pen plotters are known from the prior art.
  • the pen plotter is designed for printing on paper, usually DIN A3 to AO.
  • detachable labels can also be printed on flat label carriers.
  • the pinplate uses an ink stick, which is mounted on a cart. The carriage slides over a rail, which can either be moved over the entire paper width, or is permanently mounted.
  • the disadvantage of pen plotters is that they are slow in printing the objects and cumbersome to use. Furthermore, it comes because of the solvent-containing ink to disturb the labeling process, for example, because of dried pens. Stiftplatter are therefore rarely used in the commercial sector.
  • the US patent application Ser DE 43 42 643 C2 a method which fixes the printed ink with a warming-poor radiation, wherein the ink is fixed by a photochemical reaction.
  • the fixation is carried out by the use of a UV radiation source, whereby the tikverzögemde waiting phase with thermal fixation is eliminated.
  • a UV radiation source is used, which is connected downstream of the printing process.
  • There is a spatially close association between the inking unit and the UV radiation source which adversely affects the inking unit due to the heat generated by the UV radiation source. The heat generated works unimpeded in all directions and a printing of different objects is not possible with this inkjet printer.
  • drying device which can be used with an infrared radiation source.
  • This is a separate drying device equipped with passive coolant downstream of inkjet printers.
  • the disadvantage of this drying device is that it can only be used as a stand-alone device for paper sheet drying at a distance of about 20 to 30 cm from the ink printer. Drying of other printed items is not possible.
  • a method and apparatus for printing cassettes or slides for histological preparations and / or glass microscope slides for microscopic thin sections is described in which a computer device is provided for controlling the printer device and the printer device is an inkjet printer for printing on the cassettes and / or slides.
  • the ink is pre-dried by a hot air drying and dried through a flash device.
  • the processing speed in the printing device is very limited by the hot air drying.
  • the hot air and lightning device is not integrated in inkjet printers.
  • the ink jet printer used in the printing device is a conventional ink printer equipped with a stationary ink tank on the printer frame for supplying the print head.
  • stationary ink tanks are the publications DE 199 23 291 B4 and DE 199 16 219 C2 refer to.
  • Stationary ink tanks have the disadvantage that they are equipped with complicated technical parts to create a negative pressure in the print head or on the nozzle device. Such embodiments of ink tanks are structurally too complicated and therefore too expensive to manufacture.
  • Another problem in obtaining a high-contrast print image is to ensure a negative pressure of a few millibars applied to the nozzle device of the printing device.
  • the negative pressure can, as known from the prior art, be ensured by an ink tank equipped with an ink absorber.
  • Such an ink tank is from the US 4,771,295
  • Such embodiments of ink tanks are arranged spatially above the nozzle device in the printing press.
  • a significant disadvantage of the absorber used in the ink tank is made in a complex process.
  • the absorber consists of a foam block which has only limited resistance to solvent-based inks. Since the objects to be printed consist of different materials, however, only solvent-based ink is suitable in the printing process.
  • the invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a method and an apparatus of the type mentioned above, which avoids the aforementioned disadvantages of the known arrangements and to provide a technical solution that makes it possible to print objects made of different materials, especially plastic parts.
