Machine for the digital printing of sheets of glass throughout its entire surface, including its perimeter
A machine for digital printing of glass sheets on their entire surface, including their border, comprising a printing table ( 1 ), a printing carriage ( 2 ) that travels along the printing table ( 1 ) on a number of travel guides ( 3 ), and a printing bridge ( 4 ) associated with the printing carriage ( 2 ) on which printing modules or heads ( 5 ) travel, characterized in that it has a head controller ( 6 ) that manages up to four encoders, which allows four simultaneous printing modes: Modality 1 along the X axis in single pass. Modality 2 along the Y axis in single pass. Modality 3 along the X axis in multipass. Modality 4 along the Y axis in multipass.
1. A machine for digital printing an entirety of a top surface of a glass sheet including a border of the top surface, said machine comprising:
a printing table,
a printing carriage that moves along the printing table along travel guides,
a printing bridge being associated with the printing carriage on which printing modules or heads move, and
a head controller that manages up to four encoders, wherein the head controller is configured to provide four simultaneous printing modes:
modality 1 along an X axis in single pass;
modality 2 along a Y axis in single pass;
modality 3 along the X axis in multipass; and
modality 4 along the Y axis in multipass.
