System zum Trennen von geschnittenen Produkten und Methode zur Anwendung.

摘要

A system (1) automatically weeds around graphics cut (18) into a sheet of sign material (M) having a backing (L) and utilizes a tool (72,82) moved relative to the sign material sheet along a path (19,19') offset from the lines of cut defining the graphic in response to commands issued by a controller (7) to selectively bond an overlay sheet (10) to the weed portions (W) of the sign material sheet. The overlay sheet is placed over the sign material sheet (step 10) and is selectively automatically bonded with portions of the cut sign material sheet for subsequent separation of the nongraphic or weed material from the cut graphic when the overlay sheet is pulled away from the backing ).
