Abstract

The method involves cutting multiple sheets in strip packets (5) and cutting the strip packets into stack packets (6). A die cutting device is provided, by which the stack packets are punched to stacks of shaped labels. Two or multiple stack packets are moved relative to each other such that multiple stack packets layered on top of each other are fed to the die cutting device and are punched to stacks of shaped labels. Two strip packets are cut to stack packets at a time and subsequently layered with a strip packet cross cutter (1).

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Bilden von Formetikettenstapel mit Hilfe einer Streifenpaketquerschneider und einer Formstanzvorrichtung zwischen denen eine Förderstrecke vorhanden ist, wobei eine Vielzahl von Bogen in Streifenpakete geschnitten vorliegen, und diese Streifenpakete zu Stapelpaketen geschnitten werden und der Formstanzvorrichtung zugeführt werden, worauf hier die Stapelpakete zu Formetikettenstapel gestanzt werden.The present invention relates to a method for forming a shaped label stack by means of a strip packet cross cutter and a die-cutting device between which a conveying path is present, wherein a plurality of sheets are cut into strips packets, and these strip packets are cut into staple packages and fed to the form punching device, here the Stacking packages are punched to shape label stack.

Teile einer solchen Anlage, die für die Durchführung des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens geeignet sind, sind aus verschiedenen Dokumenten bekannt. In ihrer Gesamtheit werden solche Anlagen auf dem Markt auch von der Anmelderin angeboten. Das Dokument EP 482435 zeigt eine Förderbeziehungsweise Transferstrecke und eine anschliessende Formstanzvorrichtung, die hier zusätzlich mit einer Bandierstation ausgerüstet ist. Die im eben erwähnten Dokument nicht dargestellte Streifenpaketquerschneider, die praktisch am anderen Ende der Transferstrecke angeordnet ist, ist beispielsweise aus der EP 2228182 bekannt.Parts of such a plant which are suitable for carrying out the process according to the invention are known from various documents. In their entirety, such equipment is also offered on the market by the notifying party. The document EP 482435 shows a Förderbeziehungsweise transfer path and a subsequent die-punching device, which is additionally equipped here with a Bandierstation. The Streifenpaketquerschneider not shown in the above-mentioned document, which is arranged practically at the other end of the transfer path, is for example from the EP 2228182 known.

Formetiketten sind in vielen Formen und Grössen bekannt und deren Anwendung sehr verbreitet. Man findet solche Etiketten auf Glasbehälter, wie Bierflaschen, Joghurtbecher oder Ölflaschen oder auch in Form von Siegeln auf Bierflaschen, Zigarettenschachteln oder Zigarrenbänder etc. Bei all diesen Anwendungen werden riesige Stückzahlen benötigt. Entsprechend sind Anlagen, wie oben erwähnt, bekannt, um solche Formetiketten herzustellen. Hierzu werden bedruckte oder unbedruckte Papierbögen mit oder ohne den aufgedruckten Formetiketten von Druckereibetrieben hergestellt und in Druckweiterverarbeitungsbetrieben zu fertigen bedruckten oder unbedruckten Etiketten oder rechteckig/quadratischen Nutzen fertig gestellt. In den erwähnten Anlagen, die meist aus drei oder mehr Arbeitsstationen bestehen, werden schlussendlich die gestanzten Formetiketten in Stapel definierter Anzahl Etiketten/Nutzen in einer Trennstation getrennt, anschliessend bandiert und stapelpacketweise in einen Karton, Tray oder Box für den Transport bereitgestellt. In der Planschneidmaschine werden die in der Druckerei gefertigten Druckbögen zu Streifen geschnitten, so dass nun Streifenpakete vorliegen und diese Streifenpakete werden dann quer zu ihrer Längsausrichtung abgeschnitten. Schneidet man einen Streifenbogenstapel senkrecht zu seiner Längsrichtung, so entsteht ein sogenanntes Stapelpacket. Dieses Stapelpacket wird dann über eine Förder- oder Transferstrecke zu einer Formstanze beziehungsweise Formstanzvorrichtung verschoben und hier jedes einzelne Stapelpacket in die Endform gestanzt und anschliessend um diesen Stapel von Formetiketten ein Band angebracht, welches den Stapel von Formetiketten sichert und den Weitertransport an die Kunden erlaubt. Diese Kunden sind Firmen, die Abfüll- oder Abpackanlagen besitzen und diese für den Eigengebrauch oder als Dienstleistung für Dritte betreiben.Molded labels are known in many shapes and sizes and their use is very common. One finds such labels on glass containers, such as beer bottles, yogurt cups or oil bottles or in the form of seals on beer bottles, cigarette boxes or cigar bands etc. In all these applications, huge quantities are needed. Accordingly, equipment as mentioned above is known to produce such shape labels. For this purpose, printed or unprinted paper sheets, with or without the printed-on form labels, are produced by print shops and finished in print finishing operations to produce printed or unprinted labels or rectangular / square-shaped uses. In the mentioned systems, which usually consist of three or more workstations, the stamped shape labels are finally separated into stacks of defined number of labels / use in a separating station, then banded and stacked in a carton, tray or box for transport. In the plan cutting machine, the printed sheets produced in the printing press are cut into strips so that strip packs are now present and these strip packs are then cut off transversely to their longitudinal orientation. If one cuts a strip arc stack perpendicular to its longitudinal direction, this results in a so-called stacking package. This stacking pack is then moved over a conveyor or transfer line to a form punch or punching device and here each individual stack of packages punched into the final shape and then attached to this stack of shape labels a band that secures the stack of form labels and allows the further transport to the customers. These customers are companies that own bottling or packaging equipment and operate it for their own use or as a service to third parties.

Entsprechend den enormen Stückzahlen solcher Formetiketten, die benötigt werden, müssen die Anlagen, auf denen die gewünschten Formetikettenstapelpakete gebildet werden, ebenfalls eine hohe Leistung besitzen. Ebenso selbstverständlich ist es auch, dass die Zuverlässigkeit und Lebensdauer der einzelnen Teile möglichst hoch sein muss, um die Stillstandszeiten für Revisionen so gering wie möglich zu halten.Due to the enormous numbers of such shape labels that are needed, the equipment on which the desired shape label stack packages are formed must also have high performance. It goes without saying, however, that the reliability and service life of the individual parts must be as high as possible in order to minimize downtime for revisions.

Im Prinzip könnte man sich vorstellen, die Leistungsfähigkeit einer solchen Anlage zu erhöhen, indem man die Stapelpakete möglichst hoch macht, so dass im Prinzip sowohl bei dem Streifenpaketquerschneider als auch bei der Formstanzvorrichtung weniger Schnitte pro Zeiteinheit erfolgen müssen. Dem sind aber aus zwei Gründen relativ enge Grenzen gesetzt. Zum einen können auf den Streifenpaketquerschneider nicht beliebig hohe Stapel von Bögen geschnitten werden ohne dabei diesen Streifenpaketquerschneider enorm zu verstärken. Zum zweiten aber sind bedruckte und oftmals plastifizierte Formetiketten relativ glitschig und die Formetiketten verrutschen beim schneiden höherer Stapelpakete, auch wenn diese unter Vordruck gehalten werden. Zum dritten aber gibt es noch eine natürliche Begrenzung der Höhe der Stapelpakete, da diese von Hand abgepackt und zum Teil auch in die weiter verarbeitenden Anlagen eingegeben werden. Hierbei darf somit ein solches Stapelpacket nicht höher sein, als dieser mittels einer Hand schnell und gesichert ergriffen werden kann, also weniger hoch als eine Handspanne. Üblich sind heute Stapelpakete von 12 cm Höhe.In principle, one could imagine to increase the performance of such a system by making the stack packages as high as possible, so that in principle less cuts per unit time must be made both in the strip package cross cutter and in the punching device. However, there are relatively narrow limits for two reasons. On the one hand, stacks of sheets of any desired height can not be cut on the strip packet cross cutter without enormously reinforcing this strip packet cross cutter. Second but are printed and often plasticized shape labels relatively slippery and the shape labels slip when cutting higher stacking packages, even if they are held under form. Thirdly, there is still a natural limitation on the amount of stack packages, since these are packaged by hand and partly entered into the further processing plants. In this case, therefore, such a stack package may not be higher than this can be taken quickly and secured by one hand, that is less high than a hand span. Usual stack packs are 12 cm high today.

Andererseits kann aber ein Streifenpaketquerschneider problemlos mehr als ein Streifenpaket aufs Mal schneiden. Schneidet der Streifenpaketquerschneider aber beispielsweise 2 bis 4 Stapelpakete aufs Mal von 2 bis 4 nebeneinander liegenden Streifenpakete ab, so erhöht sich dadurch die Frequenz der bei der Formstanzvorrichtung ankommenden Stapelpakete. Deren Taktgeschwindigkeit ist jedoch begrenzt.On the other hand, however, a strip packet cross cutter can easily cut more than one strip packet at a time. However, if the strip package cross cutter cuts, for example, from 2 to 4 stack packets per second, from 2 to 4 strip packs lying next to one another, this increases the frequency of the stack packages arriving at the form punching device. Their clock speed is limited.

Die Anmelderin hat in Untersuchungen festgestellt, dass bei jeder Stanzung die obersten Etiketten, abhängig vom verwendeten Substrat, verwendeten Innen- und Aussenwinkels beim Stanzwerkzeug, Vorschubgeschwindigkeit beim Stanzvorgang und weiteren Faktoren leicht grösser sind als die Untersten. Dabei spricht man vom Unterschnitt der in definierten Grenzen zu halten ist. Bei ungenügender Stabilität des Stanzwerkzeuges kann sich das Stanzwerkzeug beim Stanzvorgang leicht verformen und in eine gewissen Schwingung geraten, wodurch jeweils am Anfang der Schnitt des Stapels von minderer Qualität ist und der nachfolgende Schnittbereich bei beruhigtem Messer von höherer Qualität ist. Hierbei stellt man fest, dass bei Erhöhung der Frequenz der Formstanzvorrichtung die Eindringgeschwindigkeit, die folglich auch zunimmt, zu einer grösseren Verformung des Messers führt und die Schnittqualität somit mit steigender Arbeitsfrequenz abnimmt und sich gleichzeitig auch noch die Standzeit, bis zur Beruhigung des Messers, durch die erhöht auftretenden Schwingungen zunimmt.The applicant has determined in investigations that for each punching the top labels, depending on the substrate used, used inner and outer angle of the punching tool, feed rate during punching and other factors are slightly larger than the bottom. This is called the undercut to keep within defined limits. In case of insufficient stability of the Punching tool, the punching tool can easily deform during punching and get into a certain vibration, which in each case at the beginning of the cut of the stack is of inferior quality and the subsequent cutting range with calmer knife of higher quality. Here it is found that as the frequency of the punching device increases the penetration rate, which consequently also increases, leads to a greater deformation of the blade and the cut quality thus decreases with increasing operating frequency and at the same time the life, to calm the knife by the increased vibrations occurring increases.

Es besteht folglich das Dilemma, dass sich die Leistungsfähigkeit einer Anlage zur Bildung von Formetikettenstapelpaketen nicht einfach dadurch erhöhen lässt, dass man mehr Stapelpakete pro Zeiteinheit bildet, sondern gleichzeitig müsste man erreichen, dass die Taktzeit der Stanzvorrichtung reduziert werden kann.Thus, there is a dilemma that the performance of a mold stack stacking line can not be increased simply by forming more stack packs per unit time, but at the same time, it would be necessary to reduce the cycle time of the punching machine.

Es ist folglich die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ein Verfahren zu schaffen, mittels bekannter Anlagen zur Bildung von Formetikettenstapelpaketen, in der die Leistung erhöht werden kann, ohne dass dabei eine wesentliche Kostensteigerung der bekannten Anlage erfolgt.It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide a method by means of known systems for the formation of shaped-label stacking packages, in which the power can be increased, without causing a significant increase in cost of the known system.

Diese Aufgabe löst ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruches 1. Weitere vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen des Verfahrens gehen aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen hervor und deren Bedeutung und Wirkungsweise wird in der nachfolgenden Beschreibung mit Bezug auf die anliegenden Zeichnungen erläutert. In der Zeichnung sind rein beispielhaft vier verschiedene Ausführungsformen des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrnes schematisch dargestellt. Es zeigt:

This object is achieved by a method having the features of claim 1. Further advantageous embodiments of the method will become apparent from the dependent claims and their meaning and effect will be explained in the following description with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the drawing, purely by way of example, four different embodiments of the inventive method are shown schematically. It shows:
FIG. 1
a process in the stack packages individually cut stacked and then punched.
FIG. 2
shows a variant in which several stack packages are cut simultaneously, again stacked and punched.

In der Figur 1 ist eine erste Durchführungsvariante des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens dargestellt. Hierbei läuft das Verfahren in der Zeichnung von rechts nach links ab. Entsprechend erkennt man ganz recht den symbolisch dargestellten Streifenpaketquerschneider, der mit 1 bezeichnet ist. Von dem Streifenpaketquerschneider 1 erstreckt sich bis zur Stanzvorrichtung 3 die Transfer- oder Förderstrecke 2. Zwischen dem Streifenpaketquerschneider 1 und der Stanzvorrichtung 3 ist symbolisch ein Greifer 4 dargestellt. Bei dem Streifenpaketquerschneider 1 liegen die aus Bögen geschnittenen Streifenpakete 5 an. Das Streifenpaket 5 ist dabei mit Blick auf die schmale Stirnseite dargestellt. Das Messer 15 der Streifenpaketquerschneider trennt davon schrittweise Stücke, entsprechend der Grösse der zu bildenden Formetiketten ab und diese abgeschnittenen Stücke werden als Stapelpakete bezeichnet. Der Stapelpaket hat die Bezugsziffer 6. In der hier symbolisch dargestellten Anlage ist die Transfer- oder Fördertrecke 2 eben dargestellt. In Realität handelt es sich dabei aber um einen im Querschnitt rechteckigen L-förmigen circa um 20 - 30 Grad geneigten Kanal, indem die vom Streifenpaketquerschneider 5 abgetrennten Streifenpakete 6 abgelegt und transportiert werden. Dieser Transport kann prinzipiell mittels entsprechenden Schiebern oder mittels anderen Fördermittel erfolgen, wie beispielsweise Förderbänder.In the FIG. 1 a first implementation variant of the inventive method is shown. This is how it works Procedure in the drawing from right to left. Accordingly, one recognizes quite quite the symbolically represented Streifenpaketquerschneider, which is designated 1. From the strip packet cross cutter 1 extends to the punching device 3, the transfer or conveyor section 2. Between the strip packet cross cutter 1 and the punching device 3, a gripper 4 is shown symbolically. In the strip packet cross cutter 1, the strip packets 5 cut from sheets are in contact. The strip package 5 is shown with a view of the narrow end face. The knife 15 of the strip package cutters separates stepwise pieces thereof according to the size of the formed labels to be formed, and these cut pieces are referred to as stacking packs. The stacking package has the reference numeral 6. In the system shown here symbolically the transfer or conveyor line 2 is shown. In reality, however, this is a rectangular in cross-section L-shaped about 20 - 30 degrees inclined channel by the strands of packets separated by 5 Streifenpaketquerschneider 5 are stored and transported. This transport can be done in principle by means of appropriate sliders or by means of other funding, such as conveyor belts.

In der ersten Variante des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens wird mittels der Streifenpaketquerschneider 1 lediglich ein einzelnes Streifenpaket zugeführt und entsprechend auch nur einzeln die abgetrennten Stapelpakete 6 weitergefördert. Der Transport erfolgt dabei bevorzugterweise schrittweise. So bildet sich eine Reihe von Stapelpaketen 6 und in dieser Ausführungsform befindet sich oberhalb der Förder- oder Transferstrecke 2 ein Greifer 4. Dieser Greifer 4 fasst nun ein Stapelpaket 6 und legt nun dieses auf einen zuvor bereits geförderten Stapelpaket 6, so dass nun ein geschichteter Stapel 7 entsteht. Im hier dargestellten Beispiel besteht dieser geschichtete Stapel 7 aus zwei Stapelpaketen 6. Der geschichtete Stapel 7 wird dann zur Stanzvorrichtung 3 geführt und in die Endform gebracht.In the first variant of the method according to the invention, only one is produced by means of the strip package cross cutter 1 supplied to individual strip package and accordingly also only individually the separated stack packages 6 further promoted. The transport is preferably carried out stepwise. This forms a series of stacking packets 6 and in this embodiment is located above the conveying or transfer line 2, a gripper 4. This gripper 4 now holds a stack of 6 and now puts this on a previously funded stack package 6, so now a layered Stack 7 is created. In the example shown here, this layered stack 7 consists of two stack packages 6. The layered stack 7 is then guided to the punching device 3 and brought into the final shape.

Im hier dargestellten und bevorzugten Beispiel ist jeweils jedes Stapelpaket 6 mit einer Trennlage 61 zu oberst oder zu unterst versehen und diese Trennlage dient dazu, die in ihrer Endform gestanzten Formetiketten wieder in gleichgrosse Formetikettenstapel zu bringen, wie die ursprünglichen Stapelpakete 6. Diese Formetikettenstapel werden dann mittels einer, hier nicht dargestellten Bandiervorrichtung mit einem Band versehen und diese bandierten Formetikettenstapel gelangen dann zur Leimstation einer Abfüll- oder Abpackanlage.In the illustrated and preferred example here each stack package 6 is provided with a release liner 61 to top or bottom and this separation layer is used to bring the stamped in their final form of shape labels again in the same size form label stack as the original stacking packs 6. These form label stacks are then provided with a band by means of a banding device, not shown here, and then these banded form label stacks arrive at the glue station of a filling or packaging plant.

Prinzipiell könnten die mittels der Streifenpaketquerschneider 1 gebildeten Stapelpakete 6 kontinuierlich zur Stanzvorrichtung 3 bewegt werden. Es ist jedoch sinnvoller, dies getaktet zu tun. So kann man während der Stillstandszeit das Steifenpaket 5 vorschieben, das Messer 11 abwärts bewegen und ein Stapelpaket 6 in die Förderstrecke 2 ablegen. Während der selben Zeit kann nun der Greifer 4 einen bereits auf der Förderstrecke 2 in einer von dem Streifenpaketquerschneider 1 entfernten Position gefasst werden und auf einen nochmals weiter von dem Streifenpaketquerschneider entfernten Stapelpaket 6 aufgeschichtet werden. Während derselben Zeit kann zudem die Vorstanzvorrichtung 3 die nochmals weiter vorgeschobenen geschichteten Stapelpakete zu Formetiketten 8 gestanzt werden, wie dies in der Fig. 1 in der ganz links dargestellten Position gezeigt ist. Dieser getaktete Vorschub ist mit dem geringsten technischen Aufwand realisierbar, doch wäre ein kontinuierlicher Vorschub durchaus auch denkbar.In principle, the stack packages 6 formed by means of the strip package cross cutter 1 could be moved continuously to the punching device 3. It is however, it makes more sense to do this in a timely manner. So you can advance the stiffener 5 during downtime, move the knife 11 down and put a stack of 6 in the conveyor section 2. During the same time, the gripper 4 can now be grasped a position already on the conveyor line 2 in a position remote from the strip package cross cutter 1 and stacked on a stack package 6 which is further removed further from the strip package cross cutter. In addition, during the same time, the pre-punching device 3 can punch the stacked stacking packs, which are advanced further, into shape labels 8, as shown in FIG Fig. 1 is shown in the leftmost position. This clocked feed can be realized with the least technical effort, but a continuous feed would certainly also conceivable.

Eine weitere bevorzugte Ausübungsvariante des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens besteht darin, dass der Streifenpaketquerschneider 1 mindestens zwei Streifenpakete auf einmal schneidet und diese nebeneinander liegenden Streifenpakete 6 anschliessend zu einem geschichteten Stapel 7 geschichtet werden. In der Fig. 3 ist eine solche Ausführung dargestellt. In diesem Fall können die beiden direkt neben einander liegenden Streifenpakete auf der Förderstrecke 2 weiter transportiert werden und anschliessend wie zuvor in der Fig. 2 dargestellt, zu einem geschichteten Stapel 7 aufeinander gelegt werden.A further preferred embodiment variant of the method according to the invention consists in that the strip package cross cutter 1 cuts at least two strip packages at once and these adjacent strip packages 6 are subsequently layered to form a layered stack 7. In the Fig. 3 such an embodiment is shown. In this case, the two strip packs lying directly next to one another can be transported further on the conveying path 2 and subsequently as previously described in US Pat Fig. 2 shown to be stacked on a layered stack 7.

Prinzipiell können praktisch mehrere Streifenpakete 5 gleichzeitig mittels dem Streifenpaketquerschneider 1 geschnitten werden und in ein oder in mehreren nacheinander folgenden Schritten mittels einem oder mittels mehreren Greifern 4 zu einem geschichteten Stapel 7 gebildet werden. Eine solche Lösung ist in der Fig. 2 dargestellt.In principle, a plurality of strip packages 5 can be cut simultaneously by means of the strip package cross cutter 1 and formed in one or more successive steps by means of one or more grippers 4 to form a layered stack 7. Such a solution is in the Fig. 2 shown.

Insbesondere wenn mehrere solche Stapelpakete 6 zu einem geschichteten Stapel 7 gebildet worden ist es sinnvoll, die einzelnen Stapelpakete zu oberst oder zu unterst mit einer Trennlage 61 zu versehen. So lässt sich, nachdem der geschichtete Stapel 7 zu einem Formetikettenstapelpaket 8 gestanzt worden ist, wiederum Stapelpakete aus formgestanzten Etiketten bilden und diese lassen sich, wie heute üblich, anschliessend bandieren.In particular, when a plurality of such stacking packs 6 have been formed into a stacked stack 7, it makes sense to provide the individual stacking packs at the top or bottom with a separating layer 61. Thus, after the layered stack 7 has been punched into a shaped label stack package 8, stack packages of stamped labels can again be formed, and these can then be banded as is usual today.

Prinzipiell lassen sich die geschichteten Stapel 7 aus mehreren Stapelpaketen 6 auf verschiedenste Arten bilden. Neben der bereits erwähnten Variante mittels Greifer ist es selbstverständlich auch möglich den geschichteten Stapel so bilden, dass an einer beliebigen Stelle der Förderstrecke 2 ein absenkbarer Boden 10 vorgesehen ist, der mittels einer Hubvorrichtung 11, sobald ein erstes Stapelpaket 6 darauf zum Liegen gebracht worden ist, abgesenkt wird. Ein zweites Stapelpaket wird über den nun abgesenkten ersten Stapelpaket 6 geschoben und der so gebildete geschichtete Stapel 7 auf dem absenkbaren Boden 10 mit der Hubvorrichtung 11 wieder auf das ursprüngliche Niveau angehoben. Wie zuvor beschrieben, wird der geschichtete Stapel taktweise vorgeschoben bis zur Formstanzvorrichtung 3.In principle, the layered stacks 7 can be formed from a plurality of stacking packages 6 in a wide variety of ways. In addition to the variant already mentioned by means of grippers, it is of course also possible to form the layered stack so that at any point of the conveyor line 2 a lowerable bottom 10 is provided by means of a lifting device 11, as soon as a first stack of packages 6 has been brought to rest , is lowered. A second stack packet is pushed over the now lowered first stack packet 6 and the layered stack 7 thus formed the lowerable bottom 10 with the lifting device 11 is raised back to the original level. As described above, the layered stack is cyclically advanced to the punching device 3.

Prinzipiell ist dazu ein Schacht 9 erforderlich in dem das Stapelpaket 6 und der absenkbare Boden 10 exakt führbar ist.In principle, a shaft 9 is required in that the stacking package 6 and the lowerable bottom 10 is exactly feasible.

Ein solcher Schacht 9 mit absenkbarem Boden 10 und Hubmittel 11 lässt sich im Prinzip an beliebiger Stelle der Förderstrecke 2 anbringen.Such a shaft 9 with lowerable base 10 and lifting means 11 can be mounted in principle at any point of the conveyor line 2.

Besonders bevorzugt werden jedoch zwei solche Ausführungsvarianten. Eine erste ist in der Figur 3 dargestellt, und hier wird die Führung der Streifenpakete 5 so arrangiert, dass ein erstes abgeschnittenes Stapelpaket6 direkt auf den absenkbaren Boden 10 zu liegen kommt. Sobald dieses erste Stapelpaket 6 völlig abgetrennt auf diesem absenkbaren Boden liegt, wird die Hubvorrichtung 11 betätigt und der zweite abgetrennte Stapelpaket exakt über den Schacht 9 verschoben worauf dann der so gebildete geschichtete Stapel 8 angehoben und weiter transportiert werden kann.However, two such variants are particularly preferred. A first one is in the FIG. 3 shown, and here the leadership of the strip packs 5 is arranged so that a first cut Stapelpaket6 comes directly to the lowerable bottom 10. Once this first stack package 6 is completely separated on this lowerable bottom, the lifting device 11 is actuated and moved the second separated stack package exactly over the shaft 9, whereupon then the layered stack 8 thus formed raised and can be transported.

Eine zweite besonders bevorzugte Anordnung besteht darin, dass der Schacht 9 direkt fluchtend unter der Formstanzvorrichtung 3 angeordnet wird. Hierdurch bekommt der absenkbare Boden 10 und damit auch die Hubvorrichtung 11 gegebenenfalls eine zweite Funktion. Zum einen ist es möglich, wie zuvor, den geschichteten Stapel anzuheben und dann in dieser oberen Position das Formmesser der Formstanzvorrichtung 3 abwärts bis zum absenkbaren Boden 10 zu bewegen. Es ist jedoch auch möglich, den geschichteten Stapel 8 im Schacht 9 zu belassen, das Formmesser der Formstanzvorrichtung bis auf das Niveau der Förderstrecke 2 abzusenken und dann die Hubvorrichtung 11 nach oben zu verfahren und dabei den geschichteten Stapel 7 anzuheben und den geschichteten Stapel 8 durch das Formstanzmesser der Formstanzvorrichtung 3 zu pressen.A second particularly preferred arrangement is that the shaft 9 is arranged directly in alignment under the die-punching device 3. As a result, the lowerable floor 10 and thus also the lifting device 11 optionally a second function. On the one hand, it is possible, as before, to lift the layered stack and then, in this upper position, to move the forming knife of the punching device 3 down to the lowerable base 10. However, it is also possible to leave the layered stack 8 in the shaft 9, to lower the forming blade of the punching device to the level of the conveyor line 2 and then move the lifting device 11 upwards and thereby lift the layered stack 7 and the stacked stack 8 through to press the die punch of the punching device 3.

Zusammenfassend besteht also das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren darin, dass man Streifenpakete entweder einzeln oder mehrere miteinander zu Stapelpaketen schneidet, zwei oder mehrere Stapelpakete aufeinander bringt und diese geschichteten Stapelpakete in einer einzigen Stanzbewegung zu einem Formetikettenstapelpaket stanzt. Optional kann dann dieser Stapel wieder in kleinere Stapelpakete aufgetrennt werden und diese Stapelpakete von Formetiketten ebenfalls optional bandiert werden. Praktisch wird man jedoch in den allermeisten Fällen immer diese Auftrennung vornehmen und auch praktisch immer nachfolgend bandieren. Lediglich dort, wo dieses Verfahren direkt einer Abfüll- oder Abpackvorrichung vorgeschaltet ist und die Formetiketten direkt zu einer Leimstation führbar sind, kann gegebenenfalls auf das Bilden von neuen Stapelpaketen aus Formetiketten verzichtet werden. Der Normalfall wird jedoch so sein, dass dieses erfindungsgemässe Verfahren unabhängig und entfernt von einer Abfüll- oder Abpackanlage durchgeführt wird. Dies ist auch deshalb sinnvoll, weil eine solche Anlage nun eine wesentlich höhere Leistung erbringen kann als eine Abfüllanlage Formetiketten verbrauchen kann.In summary, therefore, the method according to the invention consists in cutting strip packages either one at a time or several into stack packages, bringing two or more stack packages together and punching these stacked stack packages in a single punching movement to form a stacked form label stack. Optionally, this stack can then be separated again into smaller stack packages and these stack packages of form labels are also optionally banded. Practically, however, in most cases you will always make this separation and virtually always banding below. Only where this method is directly preceded by a filling or packaging device and the form labels can be guided directly to a glue station can, where appropriate, to the formation of new stack packages of form labels be waived. However, the normal case will be that this inventive method is performed independently and remotely from a filling or packaging plant. This is also useful because such a system can now provide a much higher performance than a filling system can consume form labels.

Neben den bereits beschriebenen Möglichkeiten zwei oder mehrere Stapelpakete zu einem geschichteten Stapel zu bilden besteht eine Möglichkeit auch darin die Stapelpakete um 90° zu kippen und diese gekippten Stapelpakete zusammenzuschieben bis zur erwünschten Höhe eines geschichteten Stapels 7 und dann diesen geschichteten Stapel um 90° wieder zurückzudrehen so dass ein stehender Stapel entsteht. Denkbar wäre es auch diesen um 90° gekippten Schichtstapel 7 direkt zur Formstanzvorrichtung zu schieben, wobei dann die Formstanzvorrichtung praktisch fluchtend zur Förderstrecke anzubringen wäre.In addition to the possibilities already described two or more stacking packages to form a layered stack is also a possibility to tilt the stack packages by 90 ° and collapse these tilted stack packages to the desired height of a layered stack 7 and then turn back this layered stack by 90 ° so that a standing stack arises. It would also be conceivable to push this layer stack 7, which was tilted by 90 °, directly to the die-punching device, in which case the die-punching device would then have to be mounted practically flush with the conveying path.

Eine weitere Variante den Schichtstapel zu bilden kann auch darin bestehen, das die Förderstrecke mit einer Weiche versehen ist und hier die Stapelpakete auf zwei Förderstrecken verteilt werden die dann übereinander wieder zusammengeführt werden und so die Stapelpakete gebildet werden.Another variant of forming the layer stack can also consist in that the conveyor line is provided with a switch and here the stack packages are distributed on two conveyor lines which are then brought together again on top of each other and so the stack packages are formed.

Nochmals weitere Möglichkeiten geschichtete Stapelpakete zu bilden sind damit nicht ausgeschlossen.Again, other ways to form stacked stacking packages are not excluded.
