Operating principle of ME2000S
To produce a Plate, ME2000S carries out a sequential cycle that can be briefly summarized in the
following stages:
•
LOADING
•
EMBOSSING
•
UNLOADING
LOADING
The plate is ejected from the loader by the
thrust of a sprocket moved by the clamps
that takes it to the loading area.
When it reaches the area, the tag is picked
up by the clamps.
EMBOSSING
After picking up the plate, the clamps
transport
it to the printing area, placing it
under the drum and simultaneously
extracting another one.
At the same time the drum rotates, thus
taking the character to be embossed under
the stamp and starting the embossing cycle.
UNLOADING
When all the plate’s characters have been
embossed, the clamps move to the
unloading area and drop the plate into the
provided tray.
The unloading stage ends the operating
cycle of the plate.
IMPORTANT:
THE OPENING OF THE FRONT PANEL CAUSES THE
IMMEDIATE STOP OF THE MACHINE AND THE
INTERRUPTION OF ALL THE PROCESS IN PROGRESS.
