Printing machine with object support including object lifting means, and object support for printing machine

摘要

A printing machine including a plate adapted to rotate about its axis and carrying at its periphery a plurality of object supports having a top face which receives an object to be printed and workstations distributed circumferentially around the plate in line with the trajectory of the object supports, some of which are printing stations and others of which are treatment stations. At least one of the object supports includes a lifting system which raises the object relative to the top face of the object support. The lifting system is connected to a suction head which preserves the projecting position of the object corresponding to that it initially occupied on the object support. The lifting system preferably includes at least two tubes which slide through holes through the object support and the plate.
