    摘要: A method and apparatus for engraving wherein the engraver includes a merge system for merging image data to be engraved in a manner which will reduce or eliminate "halo" and/or "ghost" images. The method utilizes a processor in an engraver for creating image data comprising continuous tone data and line work data. The method further involves the steps of locating transition data corresponding to where the continuous tone data and line work data meet; and processing at least some of the image data to provide processed image data using the transition data located in the locating step. The engraver has an engraving bed; a headstock and a tailstock located on the engraving bed for rotatably supporting a cylinder to be engraved; an engraving head located on the engraving bed for engraving the cylinder; an image data generator coupled to the engraving head, the image data generator being capable of creating image data comprising continuous tone data, line work data and transition data. The image data generator comprises a locator for locating the transition data and a processor associated with the locator for processing at least some of the image data to provide processed image data using the transition data located by the locator. The system and method facilitate selectively enhancing at least one edge or area within a data set, such as either a line work data set or a continuous tone data set, while selectively avoiding enhancing other areas, such as an area between a line work area and continuous tone area of an image.

    摘要: A system for locating a plurality of engraving heads on an engraver wherein a plurality of engraving heads are automatically positioned into a predetermined configuration. A mechanism for positioning the engraving heads preferably includes a leadscrew and a drive nut which is rotatable relative to the leadscrew. In addition, each of the engraving heads preferably includes a rotatable drive nut with a respective motor for rotating the nut whereby the heads may be selectively positioned into a predetermined configuration. In a further aspect of the invention, the engraving heads are mounted on a carriage which is movable in an axial direction relative to a cylinder to be engraved. The heads are selectively positionable on the carriage and the carriage includes a nut threadably engaged with a leadscrew whereby the carriage may be driven in an axial direction relative to the cylinder to be engraved. In yet another aspect of the invention, a method is provided for engraving a cylinder including mounting a cylinder in the engraver, automatically adjusting a plurality of engraving heads into a predetermined configuration, and engraving a plurality of images onto the cylinder.

    摘要: Method and apparatus for engraving a surface by a rotating tool movable along X, Y and Z axes under computer control. The tool projects through a slit in a housing, the slit having a height greater than that of the characters to be engraved and a length longer than the series of characters to be engraved. Mechanical structure is contained in the housing to drive the tool along X and Y axes for forming the characters and along a Z axis to engage the work. The beginning and end of the engraving operation as well as character size and sequence are all controlled by a computer.
