  • Patent number: 10399360
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for producing self-adhesive labels, in particular in a self-service area, for example of a drug store, is provided. The apparatus comprises a dye-sublimation thermal printer, as a printing means for printing a printing pattern onto an adhesive film, and a cutting apparatus for cutting the adhesive film along a cutting pattern, the adhesive film being moved automatically from the printing means to the cutting apparatus. Initially, only a first moving unit of the printing means moves the adhesive film at a first speed to a second moving unit of the cutting apparatus, after which both moving units move the printed adhesive film further in the forward direction.

  • Patent number: 10179464
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a device for producing cut objects. A dye-sublimation thermal printer prints a printing pattern onto a printing substrate and outputs the latter. A cutting apparatus cuts the printing substrate along a cutting pattern, wherein the cutting apparatus comprises a cutting unit and a moving unit for moving the printing substrate during cutting. The dye-sublimation thermal printer is adapted to print the printing substrate in such a way that the outputted printing substrate has a printed area in which printing has occurred and a non-printed area in which printing has not occurred, wherein the printed area and the non-printed area are successively arranged and the dimension of the non-printed area in the arrangement direction is at least equal to a distance between the cutting unit and the first moving unit.

  • Patent number: 9943976
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a device for producing adhesive labels, in particular in a self-service area, for example of a drug store. The device comprises a printer for printing a printing pattern based on user inputs onto an adhesive film, a cutting apparatus for cutting the adhesive film along a specified cutting pattern which can be selected by a user, and a transferring apparatus for automatically transferring the printed adhesive film from the printer to the cutting apparatus, wherein the transferring apparatus comprises a first moving unit for automatically moving the printed adhesive film in a forward direction from the printer to the cutting apparatus. A control apparatus controls the automatic transfer of the printed adhesive film from the printer to the cutting apparatus.
