Schematic representation of the roll-to-roll laser die-cutting machine
Below is a schematic representation of the roll-to-roll laser die cutting machine, illustrating the main modules and their functions:
- Supply and Laminating Module:
- Ensures the accurate feeding of the roll material.
- Adds a protective or decorative laminate to the material.
- Laser module:
- Cuts the desired shapes from the roll material with high precision.
- Uses a powerful CO2 laser, optimized for speed and accuracy.
- Supports full cutting, kiss cutting, punching, engraving and marking.
- Camera Registration and Barcode Reader:
- The camera registration module automatically detects and corrects the position of the material for precise cutting.
- The barcode reader scans barcodes for quick identification and automatic task changes.
- Cutting and Rewinding Systems:
- The cutting module makes precise cuts for separating individual labels or stickers.
- The rewind module neatly rolls up the finished labels for further processing or shipping.
- Post-processing such as UV Varnish module:
- Applies a UV lacquer layer that is cured under UV light.
- Provides a high-quality, protective and decorative finish to the labels and stickers.
This schematic representation shows how the different modules work together to achieve efficient and high-quality production of labels and stickers, from input to finishing and packaging.
Extra options
Camera and Barcode Reader
For automatic task changes during production.
A camera registration module uses advanced image processing technology to accurately detect and control the position of the material. This ensures high precision when cutting and positioning labels and stickers, and enables automatic corrections to minimize deviations.
A barcode reader module scans barcodes on the roll or material to enable fast and error-free identification and processing. This system supports automatic job changes and improves efficiency by ensuring the correct cutting program is applied based on the scanned barcode.
UV Varnishes
Add extra finishes to your products.
The UV varnish module applies an ultraviolet (UV) varnish layer to the material, which provides a high-quality, protective and decorative finish. This lacquer layer is cured under UV light, making the surface of the labels or stickers resistant to wear, scratches, and other environmental factors. UV varnishing can provide either a gloss or matte finish and increases the visual appeal and durability of the finished products.
This module not only improves the aesthetics, but also extends the life of the labels and stickers by providing extra protection.
Cutting and Rewinding Systems
The cutting module is designed for precise cutting of labels and stickers from a roll of material. The system can apply various cutting techniques, such as full cutting, kiss cutting, perforating and contour cutting, depending on the requirements of the application. This ensures flexibility and precision when processing complex designs and various material types.
The winding module ensures that the cut labels and stickers are neatly rolled up on a new roll. This system precisely manages the winding to prevent wrinkles, shifts and other irregularities. It can also be adjusted for different roll widths and diameters, contributing to an efficient and organized production process.
Laminating
Applying a protective or decorative layer to the material before or after it is cut. This laminating module ensures that the labels or stickers are covered with a transparent film that protects them against wear, moisture and other environmental factors, while it is also possible to add a gloss or matte finish.
Sheeting
A roll of labels or stickers is cut into individual sheets or pieces. This makes it possible to process the long, continuous roll of material into manageable, individual sheets, which can be useful for further processing, packaging or distribution.
