Description

  The present disclosure relates to a printing apparatus.

  Conventionally, an adhesive sheet composed of a backing sheet, an adhesive layer, and a release paper is produced by die-cutting a label printed on the surface of the release paper into various shapes, and the label and the release paper on which the label is die-cut separately. It is wound around a roll and collected.

  Since the label is printed on the surface of the release paper, a printing position shift or the like may occur in the printing process. Since the label in which the printing position deviation occurs in this way is a defective label, it is necessary to collect the defective label after it is detected in the inspection process. However, since it is necessary to temporarily stop the production of labels in order to collect defective labels, productivity decreases. Then, if a label is a defective label, what conveys a defective label from a release paper without die-cutting, and collects a defective label with a release paper when peeling a release paper from a base paper is proposed (for example, patent) Reference 1). On the other hand, there is also proposed a method in which a defective label is die-cut from a release paper after the defective label is detected in an inspection process (for example, see Patent Document 2).

In step S51, the control unit 111 determines whether or not the position of the label B is a defective label position.

When the control unit 111 determines that the position of the label B is not a defective label position (step S51; N), the control unit 111 proceeds to the process of step S54, and performs foil pressing using the adhesion data in step S54. In step S53, the control unit 111 determines whether it is the end of the roll medium. When determining that the roll medium is at the end (step S53; Y), the controller 111 ends the foil pressing process.

  From the above description, in the printing apparatus 12 to which the present disclosure is applied, when the die cutter 14 is disposed on the upstream side of the bonding apparatus 11 and the inspection apparatus 13 determines that the image quality is poor, the bonding data Is changed to corrected adhesion data covering at least a part of the cut line L of the label B corresponding to the defective portion determined to have a poor image quality. Therefore, even if the order of the processes is changed and the die cutter 14 is disposed upstream of the bonding apparatus 11 and the label B is die-cut along the cut line L, the corrected bonding data is at least part of the cut line L. Can be attached to cover. Therefore, since the label B corresponding to the defective portion can be recovered together when the residue M is recovered by the residue raising device 15, the productivity is lowered without providing a new mechanism even if the order of the steps is changed. Can be prevented.

  In addition, when the printing apparatus 12 to which the present disclosure is applied is in the cost priority mode and the cut line L at the defective portion has a corner, the printing apparatus 12 generates the corrected adhesion data so as to cover at least the corner. Since the corner portion is likely to be subjected to a force at the time of scraping and peeling, if corrected adhesion data is generated so as to cover the corner portion, the label B corresponding to the defective portion is removed from the scrap M even at the time of scraping and peeling. Never leave. Therefore, the label B corresponding to the defective portion can be reliably recovered when the residue M is recovered by the residue raising device 15.

  In addition, when the printing apparatus 12 to which the present disclosure is applied is in the cost priority mode and the cut line L of the defective portion does not have a corner portion, at least the residue M is removed from the cut line L by the residue raising device 15. The corrected adhesion data is generated so as to cover a portion corresponding to the upstream side in the direction of the scrap lifting and peeling. In the cut line L, the portion corresponding to the upstream side in the residue raising / peeling direction is likely to be subjected to force during the residue raising / peeling direction, so that the corrected adhesion data is generated so as to cover the portion corresponding to the upstream side in the residue raising / removing direction. If so, the label B corresponding to the defective portion is not separated from the residue M even at the time of residue removal. Therefore, the label B corresponding to the defective portion can be reliably recovered when the residue M is recovered by the residue raising device 15.

  Moreover, when the printing apparatus 12 to which the present disclosure is applied is the certainty priority mode, the correction adhesive data is generated so as to cover the cut line L of the defective portion. Therefore, an adhesive member is attached so as to cover along the cut line L. Therefore, since the integrity of the residue M and the label B corresponding to the defective portion is increased, the certainty of collecting the label B corresponding to the defective portion can be increased.

  In the printing apparatus 12 to which the present disclosure is applied, the bonding apparatus 11 uses a varnish for the bonding member. Therefore, the collection of the label B corresponding to the defective portion can be realized at a low cost. Further, since the varnish thickness data is included in the corrected adhesion data, the varnish thickness can be adjusted, and an appropriate amount of varnish can be applied.

  Moreover, as for the printing apparatus 12 to which this indication is applied, the adhesive apparatus 11 affixes foil on a varnish. Therefore, the label B corresponding to the defective portion and the residue M can be reliably fixed by the foil. Therefore, the label B corresponding to the defective portion and the residue M can be collected together. Moreover, since the arrangement | positioning data which pastes foil in correction | amendment adhesion | attachment data are included, the position which pastes foil can be adjusted, and foil can be stuck in a suitable position.

  In the printing apparatus 12 to which the present disclosure is applied, the corrected cut data that is changed from the cut data when it is determined that the die cutter 14 is disposed on the upstream side of the bonding apparatus 11 corresponds to the defective portion. The cut line L of the label B is deleted. Therefore, the label B corresponding to the defective portion is not die-cut. Therefore, since the label B and the residue M corresponding to the defective portion are reliably integrated, the label B and the residue M corresponding to the defective portion can be reliably collected together.

  The printing apparatus 12 to which the present disclosure has been applied has been described based on the embodiments. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and changes may be made without departing from the spirit of the present disclosure.

  For example, although an example in which the server 3 holds the process order information has been described, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the terminal 5 may hold the process order information. In addition, an example of performing foil pressing in order to peel off the label B corresponding to the defective portion together with the residue M at the time of raising the residue has been described. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and tape or glue may be attached to the label B corresponding to the defective portion. Good.

  Note that the series of processes described above can be executed by hardware or can be executed by software. When a series of processing is executed by software, a program that configures the software installs various programs and can execute various functions from a recording medium that records the program, or It is installed via the Internet or the like.
