- PET polyethylene terephthalate
- the containers to be labeled could be printed using color / inks, for example, which means that the label including adhesive will no longer be required. This can be done, for example, by the screen printing process, such as in the DE102004018189 described.
- digital ink jet printing processes may be mentioned, in particular using drop-on-demand (DOD) technology, in which, instead of a continuous ink jet, only individual drops of ink can be fired as required.
- DOD drop-on-demand
- a device for printing containers by means of an inkjet printing process is, for example, in US Pat DE102009013477B4 described.

- a system according to the invention can also advantageously enable any combination of treatment or equipment processes.
- the transport and the distribution of containers to be supplied to the system by the distribution device includes the possibility that the distribution device can also remove the treated or equipped containers from the system and forward them to other process steps.
- the distribution device can continuously transport the containers, for example.
- the distribution device can transport and distribute containers individually clocked or combined in groups in a clocked manner.
- the equipment can also be operated continuously or clocked and equip containers individually or in groups.
- a system according to the invention can have at least one transfer device for transferring the containers from the distribution device to the equipment device.
- Each equipment device can also have its own transport system for container transport or container handling.
- This possible transport system can be designed, for example, as a rotary conveyor or chain conveyor and can be connected to the distributor device either directly or via optional additional transfer devices.
- the optional additional transfer devices can in turn be transport stars, transport chains, belt transports or the like.
- Such transfer devices can e.g. can also be used within an equipment device, which in turn can have several equipment stations / equipment spaces.
- a transfer device arranged between the distribution device and the equipment device can, for example, also be designed as an interface between continuous and clocked container transport.
- a transfer device e.g. have a transfer device of the distribution device, external and / or internal grippers, and configured so that containers can be fed to the equipment device (s) by means of base handling and / or body handling and / or neck handling.
- the distributor device and / or the transfer device and / or the equipment devices can be equipped with a large number of container receptacles, which can transport the containers to be treated / equipped individually and preferably at a defined distance from one another.
- the container receptacles or at least the storage of the container receptacles of the distributor device and / or the transfer device and / or the equipment device can be arranged at equidistant intervals along a circumference / the length of the respective device.
- the spacing of the container receptacles can, however, differ from device to device.
- the distances in the equipment device can be chosen to be larger than the distance between the container receptacles in the distributor device because between
- a housing or shield can be arranged in the container receptacles, which, for example, enables the treatment / equipment of a container without disrupting or influencing the treatment / equipment of any adjacent container.
- a distance during the transport of individual containers or the holding means, such as clamps, turntables, centering bells, internal gripping mandrels, etc., assigned to a container receptacle can be changed, the holding means themselves also can be mobile.
- a container treatment for example an alignment and / or cleaning and / or inspection, can also take place not only in the equipment device, but also in the distribution device and / or in the transfer device.
- a system for equipping containers according to the invention can furthermore have means for changing and / or maintaining the orientation of the containers during transport and / or transfer between a distribution device and an equipment device.
- the distributor device and / or an equipment device can be designed as a concentric device and / or a linear device and / or a linear-parallel device or as a combination of the design geometries mentioned.
- the drive system of the distributor device can include at least one servo drive and / or a direct drive.
- the distribution device can be configured such that it can be clocked to the at least two equipment devices or can continuously supply individual or multiple containers simultaneously in presettable different ways, and the equipment devices can be set in such a way that they can be operated in parallel and / or in series.
- a distribution device it is possible to assign certain treatment devices / equipment devices only to a selection of containers.
- the containers not included in this selection are then assigned to an alternative treatment device or, in a special case, to no alternative treatment device / equipment device.
- Assignment can be understood to mean, in particular, bypassing, since most treatment units / equipment devices can be stationary, i.e. are not provided with a moving transport system accompanying the containers. However, it is also conceivable to arrange certain treatment devices / equipment devices along with a transport system, e.g. Containers that are transported on the transport system can be treated / equipped.
- Containers to be supplied to the system for container equipment can therefore be distributed to at least one equipment device in at least one distribution device in a method according to the invention.
- the distributor device can therefore advantageously enable intelligent and flexible division and transport of containers within a system for equipping containers.
- the distribution device and / or equipment device can e.g. distribute the containers on the basis of a key or plan defined in a control system and the key or plan can be changed in the control system, for example in the case of a retrofit or a format changeover or for repairs.
- the distribution device can also distribute the containers based on measurements made on the incoming or outgoing containers.
- the distribution device can distribute the containers based on the utilization of individual equipment devices.
- the system can also have at least one pretreatment unit arranged in front of the equipment devices for preparing containers to be equipped for the equipment process, which can be configured such that they dry and / or temper containers to be equipped and / or statically load or unload the container surface to be equipped and / or clean and / or the container surface to be equipped by flame treatment and / or corona treatment and / or plasma treatment and / or Can modify energy radiation (in particular ultraviolet radiation) and / or coating and, after pretreatment, can forward the containers to the distribution device and / or can transfer them directly to an equipment device.
- Pretreatment can also be understood to mean a marking, alignment or inspection device or combinations of said pretreatment units.
- This possible pretreatment of the containers to be equipped has the advantage, for example, that the equipment, e.g. a print or a label can adhere better to the surface of the container to be printed, so the quality of the equipment can be improved.
- the equipment e.g. a print or a label
- the system can also have at least one aftertreatment unit for equipped containers, e.g. a post-treatment unit for print motif control, e.g. the quality of the equipment, e.g. the printing, to be able to check by camera control. If a check results in poor quality for the checked container, it can, for example, be removed and discarded.
- a post-treatment unit for print motif control e.g. the quality of the equipment, e.g. the printing
- post-treatment units for equipped containers are also conceivable, which can be assigned to an equipment device or integrated into it, e.g. an ink curing unit, for example an ultraviolet light irradiation unit for the aftertreatment of printed containers, which e.g. may have been printed using digital inkjet printing processes.
- an ink curing unit can also be used in other printing processes for the aftertreatment of printed containers.
- the distribution device can transport containers continuously and / or in a clocked manner and distribute them to the equipment devices or printing devices.
- each container is successively clocked or moved to the next equipment device / treatment unit and / or also within an equipment device / treatment unit and, for example, moves exactly one division at each cycle, i.e. the furnishing process or treatment process can generally take place chronologically or in series.
- the distribution device can also transport containers clocked in groups (in batches) and distribute them to the equipment devices.
- containers in a group can be clocked by several divisions and can be equipped simultaneously / in parallel, for example.
- Container transport modes of the distribution device described here can also be used by all other container transport elements in the system, e.g. be carried out within a treatment or equipment unit.
- the possible flexibility in clocking and dividing containers into groups can save time and system performance, since the number of acceleration and deceleration phases during container transport can be reduced, for example.
- Both the distribution device (s) and the treatment or equipment devices can therefore be clocked independently of one another or operated continuously as required. Transport mechanisms for one or more containers are conceivable at the same time.
- the containers can be transferred or removed from the equipment devices and / or treatment units by means of base handling and / or body handling and / or neck handling.
- a treatment or equipment device can have a transfer device with external and / or internal gripper and can be configured such that containers can be fed to the equipment device by means of base handling and / or body handling and / or neck handling.
- Containers can also be transferred to or after transfer to the equipment device in a clamping device that touches on both sides. This "clamps" the container, the container bottom and container mouth can form the ends of the clamping. As a result, the container can be well fixed and finally positioned exactly in line with the equipment technology.
- the clamping process can be implemented using an intelligent servo spindle linear system or the like. Alternatively, a stepper motor with a linear system and with a measuring system can also be implemented.
- These clamping devices can be used to adjust the system to different height container types as well as a force-controlled one Allow clamping by means of servo control. Such a force-controlled device can be particularly useful with empty and thin-walled containers, since the container could be deformed if the clamping force is too great.
- the following intelligent force controls of the spindle motor drive are conceivable: For example, regulation / adjustment of the clamping force using a spring element (tension or compression spring) and / or regulation / adjustment of the clamping force via compressed air or a compressed air cushion and / or regulation / adjustment of the clamping force via the feedback of, for example, a load cell with readjustment via the spindle drive motor.
- a spring element tension or compression spring
- regulation / adjustment of the clamping force via compressed air or a compressed air cushion via the feedback of, for example, a load cell with readjustment via the spindle drive motor.
- the components used to clamp the container can be moved towards one another during the clamping process in order to be able to clamp the container. This movement can take place both through the upper part (container mouth), from the lower part (container bottom), or in combination.
- a clamping device can advantageously offer, among other things, increased flexibility with regard to the geometry and position of the container surface to be equipped.
- containers according to the invention can be equipped or treated both in a standing, lying or inclined orientation.
- a buffer device can be connected upstream of the equipment or distribution device, which can enable a container to be stowed. This can advantageously serve to decouple a continuous container flow from a clocked container flow and, for example, minimize or prevent the risk of "overflow" or breakdown of the equipment and / or treatment process.
- the equipment can be a rotating container transport element, e.g. a carousel, i.e. the equipment can be designed as a rotary machine.
- the equipment can also be designed as a linear device.
- the distributor device (s) can also be designed both as a linear device and as a rotary system, for example as a distributor carousel, and / or a linear-parallel device or as a combination of the design geometries mentioned.
- the distribution device may be configured to carry different individual containers and / or different groups of containers on different presettable container distribution paths.
- the equipment can be configured so that it can be operated in parallel.
- the variety in the selection of the operating modes of an exemplary system for equipping containers for example the choice between parallel and serial operation of equipment devices and / or the targeted intelligent distribution of individual containers or groups of containers on different presettable container distribution paths by means of the distributor device, can advantageously be Increase flexibility and efficiency of the equipment process.
- different container types / container sizes can be processed at the same time, e.g. a first type of container is routed from the distribution device to a first equipment device and a further second type of container to another equipment device.
- the container distribution can also be decided spontaneously for each container by controlling the distributor device
- a distribution to the equipment devices can be decided based on the incoming container type.
- an equipment device could be designed for 1.5 liter round plastic bottles and another equipment device for 0.3 liter oval glass bottles.
- the containers could be assigned to the respective equipment device by means of a weight or bottle contour measurement using a camera or a wall thickness measurement.
- the container format can be stored in the control in previous processes (e.g. when manufacturing or filling the container) and e.g. can be called up again by means of shift register use in the distribution device.
- a decision about the container distribution can be made depending on the occupancy or occupancy status of the equipment devices. If, for example, they have a buffer or a flexible transport system, they can also an occupancy of the respective equipment device, for example the buffer level, can form the basis for whether a container is fed to this equipment device (if a space at a container receptacle is currently free) or not.
- the decision on the distribution based on the control measurement of containers equipped. Delivers e.g. a first equipment device better results than a second, depending on the power requirement, more containers can be distributed to the first equipment device than to the second. If the required output can only be satisfied by the first equipment, the second equipment can also be temporarily stopped for maintenance purposes (fine adjustment, cleaning pressure nozzles). If a higher output is currently required, the containers can also be distributed in a certain ratio, so that the first equipment is fully utilized and the second only fulfills the remaining requirements.
- the distribution can also take place in a predetermined ratio, for example by treating every nth bottle (where n is an integer> 0) with the first equipment device and every n + 1th bottle with the second equipment device.
- n is an integer> 0
- the advantage here is that the transport system does not have to be designed so flexibly.
- mechanical cam controls are sufficient for the distribution of the containers.
- the drive system of the distributor device and / or the drive system of a container transport element can also include at least one servo drive and / or a direct drive.
- Any turntables of a distribution device or equipment or treatment unit can also have a direct drive
- Encoder systems or similar measuring systems can be used to determine the exact position and position of the containers on a transport element and / or carousel and / or on a turntable.
- the equipment has a container transport element with a rotary encoder system for measuring the absolute value of container positions.
- the possibility of a precise determination of the container position can advantageously have an effect on improved repeatability in the furnishing process and, for example, minimize errors in an furnishing process, for example incorrect printing or labeling.
- the signals from a control device or the camera can be used and included in a regulation for the subsequent containers.
- the containers When transporting or distributing the containers, the containers can have a rotational movement about a container axis or an axis parallel to a container axis, preferably a rotation about the longitudinal axis of the container, in addition to a main translational movement direction.
- the rotation of the containers can e.g. are conveyed by turntables, which can be integrated in a distributor device or in a container transport element. Again, encoder systems can also be used for these movements.
- the equipment can in particular be a printing device for digital inkjet printing, but of course other printing and marking methods, such as screen printing or so-called hot foil, are also conceivable.
- a system for printing according to the invention can, as already mentioned, also have a modular structure, one or a plurality of distributor devices with one or a plurality of equipment devices, in particular printing devices and / or labeling devices and / or one or a plurality of pretreatment units and / or post-treatment units, e.g. configured in series and / or parallel, can be combined.
- a system according to the invention can also have at least one further unoccupied docking space for an equipment device.
- the system can advantageously be easily expanded or reduced.
- additional modules are docked, for example to increase the overall machine performance and / or to enable further equipment / processes.
- a distributor device no longer has the required docking space, it can also be changed, for example, in its circumference, that is to say in its diameter or in its length. This is particularly possible with a linear distributor device in which the chain or belt can be extended and by e.g. can attach additional receptacles for containers to the extended chain.
- one (or two, three ...) further distribution device could be docked onto the distribution device or one (or two, three %) further distribution device could be connected in parallel.
- the distribution to two distribution devices connected in parallel could be carried out by an upstream master distribution device.

- the containers arrive on a common conveyor belt from direction 210 and can be divided into three container streams (204, 205, 206) via fixed rails.
- the angle of the rails can also be controllable, so that the supplied containers can also be divided further into two container flows or into one container flow.
- FIG. 4 shows another system 300 for equipping, in particular for printing, containers 320 that can be filled with liquid.
- the system 300 can comprise a transport element 304 designed as a distribution carousel, which can convey containers to be printed to a multiplicity of printing devices (307, 308 and 310, 311, 312, 313, 314, 315, 316, 317 and 319) and printed containers can be removed again from the system 300.

- Transport element 404 can be understood both as a distribution device or part of a distribution device and as a transport element of an equipment device.
- the printing devices can e.g. work with digital inkjet printing technology such as the printing devices 406 to 426 shown here, or also with alternative printing techniques, such as with screen printing technology.
- the system 400 can also have units for the pretreatment or post-treatment of containers.
- a pretreatment unit 405 for example responsible for container alignment, and / or temperature control and / or container surface modification etc., can prepare the containers 434 of a container flow, which can be supplied to the system 400 from a main supply direction 401, for subsequent printing or treatment processes.
- a possible aftertreatment unit 431 can be used, for example, as shown here for checking the print image using a camera.
- the system may also have 400 post-treatment units such as 408 and / or 428 and / or 429 and / or 427, e.g. for hardening the printing / the printed image by means of ultraviolet light (UV light).

- Containers 434 can be treated individually and / or in groups (in batches) within a container stream.
- Printing devices, pre-treatment and post-treatment units can be docked onto the distribution device 404 individually, in groups and / or in a modular manner. This allows a high degree of flexibility or improvement with regard to the performance and efficiency of the system 400, since, for example, the number and arrangement of the printing devices can be changed as required and printing devices can be serviced without having to shut down the entire system 400.
- the system 400 can, among other things, have an empty field 430 between printing devices and / or treatment units, in which, for example, containers 434 can be rotated, e.g. can enable double-sided printing of the container.
- a special empty field 430 can under certain circumstances simplify the rotation of containers, in particular in the case of asymmetrical containers which are bulky in comparison to the system, for example without having to make any restrictions in the compactness of the structural arrangement of the system 400.
- the containers 434 can be fed to the system 400 via transfer stars or transfer units 433, 432 by means of a distributor device 435 (401) or removed from the system 400 (402).
- FIG. 4 shows another system 500 for equipping containers that can be filled with liquid.

- a module 501 e.g. can have an equipment device 508 and two transfer devices 509 and / or 510 for transferring or removing containers between equipment device 508 and distribution device 513.
- no transfer device can also be provided.
- the input or removal of the containers from or into the equipment device can e.g. take over a distributor device 513 / a container transport element directly.
- Distribution device 513 can here container 505, which e.g. are fed to the system 500 from a main movement direction 503, transferred to an equipment device 508 by means of a transfer device 509. After passing through the equipment device, which can be designed, for example, as a carousel with the direction of rotation or container circulation direction 507, a further transfer device 510 can transfer the containers 506 back to the distribution device 513 and, for example, to another module 502 (only indicated schematically) analogously to Forward the first module 501 or bypass it.
- a further transfer device 510 can transfer the containers 506 back to the distribution device 513 and, for example, to another module 502 (only indicated schematically) analogously to Forward the first module 501 or bypass it.
- the transfer devices 509, 510 can have grippers 511, 512, 517, 521, 518, 519 suitable for base handling and / or body handling and / or neck handling.
- the grippers can be designed, for example, as external grippers (as shown) and / or as internal grippers.
- These transfer devices can take on the task of container flows to distribute or manage individually in the individual equipment devices. Depending on requirements (even for each container individually), transfer processes can run in parallel or in succession.
- the figure also shows gripper movement paths 515, 516 by way of example.
- a gripper 521 can remove container 505 from the distribution device from a continuous run, which is why an accompanying route can be provided in order to be able to give the gripper enough time to access it.
- a second gripper 519 can grab a container from the equipment device 508, so that a space or a container receptacle in the equipment device is free. In this free space, e.g. a container held by the gripper 517 can be precisely inserted.
- housings 514 which can shield individual containers from one another on the equipment device 508 designed as a carousel.
- the equipment 508 e.g. is a printing device with several printing stations and / or ink curing stations, can for example prevent a housing that e.g. UV light can pass from an ink curing process at one station to a neighboring station, where, for example, printing is currently in progress and curing of the printing ink is not currently desired.
- the enclosure can e.g. consist of two side walls between the stations, the equipment table as a shielding downwards, and a wall (not shown), which the containers e.g. shields in the direction of the axis of rotation of the carousel and a cover, not shown, for shielding upwards.
- the container can be freely accessible, both for the print heads of each station, as well as for a possible drying or post-treatment or removal from the carousel.
- All elements of the housing can be immovably arranged on the carousel and rotated with it, without changing your position to the carousel.
- this simple housing requires a somewhat more complex point-like transfer of the containers by the grippers of the transfer device with simultaneous accompaniment (until, for example, the pick-up of the printing carousel has snapped shut), complex movements of housing wall elements can be avoided.

- the containers can be transferred from the first distributor carousel 617 to a second distributor carousel 618 by means of transfer device 604.
- the containers 616 can be routed from distribution carousel 618 to equipment devices 610, 611, 612, 613, wherein the transfer of the containers from the second distribution carousel 618 to the respective equipment device can take place with none, one or two transfer devices.
- a transfer device 606, 606, 607, 608 for the transfer between distributor carousel 618 and the equipment devices 610, 611, 612, 613 is shown here in concrete terms.
- the containers now equipped can e.g. are transferred back to the first distributor carousel 617 via transfer device 614, where they e.g. can be treated by an aftertreatment unit 615 before they can be transferred to a further distribution system by means of transfer device 619 and can be discharged from the system 600 in the direction 602.
- Equipment and pre- and post-treatment of the containers can be controlled here via two separate distributor carousels.
- the container transport elements of the distributor carousels are equipped with container rotating devices so that containers e.g. are rotatable in the direction of rotation 619.
- Manifold carousels 617 and 618 may be considered part of a manifold device 620.
