Abstract: A printer for printing plate-like media made of plastic and/or metal such as printing marker cards with markers for marking electrical appliances has various functional devices and an apparatus for handling the printable plate-like media. The marker cards are conveyed in the printer between the functional devices. The handling apparatus has several stations which are formed as receiving and fixing devices for a marker card to be printed. One or more of the stations is configured so as to be pivotable, such that it can be pivoted out of a first pivot position into a second pivot position against a resilient stop.

Abstract: A printer for printing plate-like media, in particular for printing marker cards with markers for marking electrical appliances includes a housing and at least one input station for the marker cards to be printed The printer further includes a printing station with a printing device and an output station for printed marker cards. The output station has a magazining device which has one or more guide devices so that the output station, with the magazining device, can be drawn from a position pushed into the housing into a position outside the housing and can be pushed back into the housing of the printer, Each guide device also has its own stacking unit which is pivotably mounted.

Abstract: A hand-actuatable plier tool for processing cables has a plier head for handling or processing a workpiece such as a cable, two plier handles that can be pivoted relative to one another between an open position and a closed position, an electronic monitoring unit detachably arranged on a first of the plier handles and with which at least the number of handling or processing procedures can be counted and stored. The monitoring unit has an electronic circuit and a signal transmitter emitting actuation signals to the electronic circuit when the plier tool is actuated. The signal transmitter has an energy harvesting module for supplying energy to the monitoring unit and an actuation mechanism activating the signal transmitter.

Abstract: A printer for printing plate-like print media includes a printing unit having at least one print head for printing print media according to the inkjet printing. The printing unit is movable in and against a conveying direction. A cleaning unit is provided for cleaning the print unit and includes a cleaning device for suctioning ink out of the print head in a suctioning direction. The cleaning unit further includes a drive device for moving the cleaning device in different operating positions. A cleaning device for such a printer and a method for maintaining the printer are also provided.

Abstract: A measuring method is provided for monitoring a component of an electrical assembly, in which the voltage across at least one component of the electrical assembly and a current through the component are measured, and in which, from measurement values for the voltage and the current, a resistance value of the component is determined. The voltage and the current are measured in successive switching periods of a periodic switching signal of the electrical assembly, and the resistance value is determined based on the measurement values for voltage and current from the successive switching periods. A measuring circuit for monitoring a component of an electrical assembly is provided with an analog/digital converter. An electrical assembly, in particular a switching power supply, having such a measuring circuit is also provided.
