DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PRINTING A WEB

摘要

The invention relates to a device for printing at least one web that is driven continuously through said device, in addition to a method for printing said web. At least one unit (12, 13, 14) is integrated into the device (1) for the continuous transfer of individual transponders (10) or transponder parts (10a), which operate according to the radio frequency identification principle, from at least one continuous carrier belt (8) to the web (2). During said process, the running speed of the carrier belt (8) is adapted to the running speed of the web (2), the latter speed being predetermined by the printing process. A connection device (11, 11a, 11b, 11c) connects the transponders (10) or transponder parts (10a) to the web (2) in a predetermined section of the carrier belt (8) and the web (2), when the speeds have been synchronised.
