Patent

CA 2519245

A method and apparatus for printing a redundant code on an elongate article are disclosed. The apparatus includes an ink unit, at least one printing head and a controller. The printing head includes two, or three, valves, controlled by the controller. As the elongate article passes through a printing station, the controller selectively actuates the valves to release ink, and thus print the code. The two valves are preferably aligned and laterally spaced from each other in order to print the same code twice on the article.

Cette invention se rapporte à un procédé et à un appareil permettant d'imprimer un code redondant sur un article allongé. Cet appareil comprend une unité à encre, au moins une tête d'impression et un contrôleur. La tête d'impression comporte deux ou trois valves, commandées par le contrôleur. Lorsque l'article allongé passe à travers une station d'impression, le contrôleur actionne sélectivement les valves pour libérer l'encre et imprimer ainsi le code. Les deux valves sont de préférence alignées et latéralement espacées l'une de l'autre, afin d'imprimer le même code deux fois sur l'article.
