Abstract
The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for applying flat punched elements in the desired position to the surface of a carrier material, the elements being present in multiple copies on a sheet. The multiple copies are fed to an applying device and positioned therein. At the same time as individual elements are separated out or punched, these elements are fixed in position with respect to the carrier material.
Claims6
An apparatus for applying a punched paper strip element in a desired position onto the surface of a plastic carrier material, comprising:
- a) a punching device including a movable punch bed;
- b) a feeding means for positioning multiple copies of the paper strip element onto the movable punch bed in exact register with said punch bed;
- c) said punching device including means for fixing the position of said multiple copies of paper strip elements relative to the punch bed after punching;
- and
- d) means for bringing together punched multiple copies of the paper strip elements associated with the punch bed with the plastic carrier material.
An apparatus for applying a flat punched paper strip element in a desired position onto the surface of a plastic carrier material, comprising
- a) a feeding means for positioning multiple copies of the paper strip element on the punch bed in exact register,
- b) means for fixing the position of the punched elements, and
- c) means for moving the punch bed to further processing units.
An apparatus for applying a flat punched paper strip element in a desired position to the surface of a plastic carrier material, comprising
- a) a first feeding means for positioning multiple copies of the paper strip element on a first punch bed in exact register,
- b) a second feeding means for positioning carrier material on a second punch bed in exact register, and
- c) a transfer means for gripping and transferring the punched elements to the carrier material on the second bed while retaining their position.
An apparatus for applying a flat punched paper strip element in a desired position to the surface of a plastic carrier material, comprising
- a) a feeding means for positioning the multiple copies of the paper strip element and carrier material on a table in exact register, the elements being prepunched on the sheet,
- b) a holding means for fixing the position of the elements on the carrier material,
- c) a withdrawing means for removing the waste from the carrier material.
