Abstract: The invention relates to a silk-screen printing machine (2) comprising a frame (4), a plate (6) for transporting the objects (18, 20), which plate (6) is mobile relative to the frame, a first (10) and a second (12) printing station, means (7) for displacing the plate (6) in order to bring the objects (18, 20) into alignment with the printing stations, and an object support (22) capable of carrying a first (18) and a second (20) object. The first printing station (10) is capable of printing solely the first object (18). The second printing station (12) is capable of printing solely the second object (20). The displacement means (7) are suitable for displacing the object support (22) between the first (10) and the second (12) printing station after the first object (18) has been printed at the first printing station (10) and the second object (20) has been printed at the second printing station (12).
Abstract: A transfer device (26) intended to move an object (8) between a support zone (28) and a cap (12), includes: a frame (30); at least one holding arm (32) which is able to carry the object (8) to be moved; and drive elements (36) which are carried by the frame (30), and able to move the holding arm (32). The drive elements (36) are able to move the holding arm (32) so that the opening (19) of the object is moved firstly along an initial trajectory portion which includes a component in accordance with a direction perpendicular to the support zone (28), then along a curve which extends through a point (119) of the trajectory (118) of the base (17) of the object, after the base (17) of the object has passed through that point.
