Abstract: A method of copying a three-dimensional surface having X, Y, and Z dimensions forms a translucent impression of the surface to be copied and then captures a two-dimensional image of the translucent impression. The captured image has X and Y dimensions and a grayscale value for each X, Y coordinate of the image. Then, the method converts each grayscale value of the image to a Z height value, thereby generating a digital file of X, Y, and Z values. The digital file may then be provided as an input to a numerically controlled machine, which can be operated to reproduce the surface to be copied. The method of the present invention finds particular application in digitizing handcrafted emboss dies and the like.

Abstract: A rotary embossing machine includes an embossing mechanism in which an embossing gap is formed between an embossing cylinder and a counter pressure cylinder. For conveying an embossing film web through the embossing gap, the rotary embossing machine includes a conveying mechanism for producing a movement of the web at the same speed as a material layer to be embossed, during an embossing interval. The film conveying mechanism includes a pulling device downstream of the embossing gap which is provided with a slip drive for the embossing film web and a controllable film supply device upstream of the embossing gap which cooperates with the pulling device. This arrangement avoids the risk of the embossing films or foils tearing and improves the embossing quality.

Abstract: Tissue sheets, such as are useful for facial or bath tissue, can be embossed with a fine scale embossing pattern to increase bulk with a minimal loss in strength. The fine scale embossing pattern contains at least about 15 discrete intermeshing embossing elements per square centimeter (100 per square inch) and can enable the tissue manufacturer to produce premium quality tissues having adequate softness, bulk and strength from conventional tissue basesheets without layering or throughdrying equipment. Depending on the starting basesheet material, tissues having a unique balance of properties can be produced, especially for conventional wet-pressed basesheets.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for securing registration of a patterned embossing roll with a similarly patterned printed moving web. The purpose of the embossing roll is to indent the surface of the printed web in register with the printing in certain designated areas. In one embodiment, a series of randomly spaced register marks on the printed web selvage edge and identically spaced register marks on the embossing roll are viewed by appropriate scanners. Electrical signatures representing the two sets of register marks are generated by the sensors and fed to a signal correlator for comparison. The correlator determines the degree of statistical error between the two signatures and displays this error in the form of a time delay on a CRT (Cathode Ray Tube). If manual registration control is desired, an operator can manually adjust the speed or phase of the embossing roll by observing the peaked wave display on the CRT to bring the roll into a statistical best fit of the embossing pattern with the printed pattern. Automatic control of embossing roll speed and orientation to achieve registration is also possible if the correlator is interfaced with a digital computer and servo correction motors on the embosser drive system. The disclosed system is an improvement over conventional benchmark oriented registration sensing and control systems in that it is capable of continuous error determinations and asynchronous error corrections on demand rather than periodically at the end of pattern length intervals.

Abstract translation: 公开了一种用于确保具有相似图案的印刷移动网的图案化压花辊的配准的系统。 压印辊的目的是在某些指定区域中缩印印刷的卷筒纸的表面与印刷对齐。 在一个实施例中，通过合适的扫描仪观察印刷的幅面边缘上的一系列随机间隔的对准标记和压印辊上相同间隔的对准标记。 表示两组寄存器标记的电子签名由传感器产生并馈送到信号相关器进行比较。 相关器确定两个签名之间的统计误差的程度，并以CRT（阴极射线管）上的延时形式显示该错误。 如果需要手动对准控制，则操作者可以通过观察CRT上的峰值波形显示器来手动调节压花卷的速度或相位，使滚筒成为压印图案与印刷图案的统计最佳匹配。 如果相关器与打印机驱动系统上的数字计算机和伺服校正电机接口，则自动控制压花辊速度和取向以实现对准也是可能的。 所公开的系统是相对于常规的基准定向注册感测和控制系统的改进，因为它能够在需求上而不是在模式长度间隔结束时周期性地进行连续的错误确定和异步错误校正。

Abstract: There is provided a sheet post-processing apparatus capable of performing eco-stapling processing to prevent a decrease in binding force by the thickness of a sheet with a simple arrangement by changing a stapling count depending on the grammage and size of a sheet and the number of sheets in consideration of the change in binding force caused by the sheet size.

Abstract: A sheet processing apparatus includes a first binding unit configured to bind a sheet bundle; a second binding unit with greater number of bindable sheets than number of bindable sheets of the first binding unit; and a number-of-sheets determining unit configured to determine whether number of to-be-bound sheets exceeds the number of bindable sheets of the first binding unit. The first binding unit moves to a binding position, and if the number-of-sheets determining unit determines that the number of to-be-bound sheets exceeds the number of bindable sheets of the first binding unit, the first binding unit moves away from the binding position. When the number-of-sheets determining unit determines that the number of to-be-bound sheets exceeds the number of bindable sheets of the first binding unit, the second binding unit moves to the binding position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the treatment of packaging foils, comprising a first embossing unit having at least one embossing roll provided with embossing structures (7) that are arranged in a basic grid for satinizing and/or with embossing structures which deviate from the basic grid for the application of logos and/or of authentication features, the work cadence (A1) of the first embossing unit being synchronizable to a process cadence (P) of the packaging process, as well as a first regulating unit of the first embossing unit that is synchronizable to the process cadence (P) of the packaging installation, and a second regulating unit of the second embossing unit, the second regulating unit serving for the synchronization of the work cadence (A2) of the second embossing unit to the work cadence (A1) of the first embossing unit. To ensure a superior foldability of the packaging foil at a high process velocity during the subsequent packaging process, a subsequent second embossing unit is suggested which comprises at least one folding roll for applying folding breaks to the packaging foil.

Abstract: A rotary die apparatus and method for determining a registration error of a pattern applied to a strip of material by a rotary die. The rotary die apparatus may comprise the rotary die and a control system which senses signals from a sensor and a rotary encoder to determine an actual position of the rotary die when a fiducial on the strip of material is sensed. The control system may calculate the registration error by comparing the actual position with a registration target corresponding to a pattern length. The pattern length may correspond to the number of encoder pulses output per revolution of the rotary die divided by the number of patterns spaced apart around the circumference of the rotary die. An encoder count used to determine the actual position of the rotary die may reset each time it reaches the pattern length.
