Abstract: A laser plotter, a device and a method for cutting of a graphic is disclosed. The method may comprise preparation or loading of a processing job with a graphic and identification features at a display; application of the recognition features and of the graphic to the workpiece; arrangement of the workpiece in a processing area of a laser plotter; acquisition or detection of identification features in order to determine the position and alignment of the applied graphic in the processing area; carrying out the processing after successful identification of the graphic; after the insertion of the workpiece, a laser-pointer is positioned on any selected identification feature, whereupon, a processing image represented on a display element, with the identification feature, is moved at the display element in such a way that a laser position displayed at the display element coincides with the identification feature.

Abstract: The invention describes a laser plotter and a method for engraving, marking or inscribing a workpiece. Two lasers are installed in a housing of the laser plotter and may alternatively operate on the workpiece. The workpiece is positioned on a processing platform and a laser beam is sent to at least one focusing unit configured for both lasers, from which the laser beam is deflected in the direction of the workpiece. Control of the workpiece is obtained by software running in a control unit. Graphic and/or text data are prepared on an external computer or other control device, and transferred to the control unit of the laser plotter. The lasers are allocated to the transferred data based on color code, whereby a height correction value to compensate for the various focal lengths of the lasers is preloaded in the data bank for the different colors.

Abstract: A processing device for processing a composite component with at least a support device and a stamp pad having at least one operating head of a material-removing unit. The material-removing unit and the composite component are moved relative to one another by means of a handling unit controlled by a control unit whereby material is removed from the composite component. The stamp pad of the composite component is divided into several mutually spaced pad parts by means of a dividing gap, whereby the operating head together with a dispensing unit of an ink dispenser unit is incorporated in an effector unit.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of processing, by machine, composite components (2) comprising at least a support device support device (3) and a stamp pad (4) by means of a processing device (1), whereby in order to process the composite component (2), at least one operating head (10) of a material-removing unit (6) and the composite component (2) are moved relative to one another, in particular in an XY plane, by means of a handling unit (7) controlled and/or regulated by means of a control unit (9), and material is removed from the composite component (2) by means of the material-removing unit (6). The stamp pad (4) of the composite component (2) at least partially joined to the support device (3) is divided into several mutually spaced pad parts (11) by means of a dividing gap (42) by the material-removing unit (6). The invention further relates to a processing device (1) for implementing the method.

Abstract: The invention relates to a processing device (1) and a method of controlling several processing tools (3, 4) of a processing device (1) for processing the material of workpieces (2). The workpiece (2) can be processed by a first processing tool (3), which is generated by a first radiation source (9), in particular a laser source, in the form of a processing beam (8a), and by means of at least one other processing tool (4) of a different nature or different origin, in particular a different radiation source (10), from the first processing tool (3), whereby the different processing tools (3, 4) can be placed in contact with a workpiece (2) in order to process the material, and processing of a workpiece (2) can be performed by only one of the processing tools (3; 4) at any one time.

Abstract: A method of forming an image in a surface by a laser mounted for orthogonal movement parallel to the surface by correlating the time lag between energizing and discharging the laser to a profile of the velocity at which the laser is moved relative to the surface. The image may be formed by writing or engraving.
