Abstract (en)
For production of a transfer sign member (52) having letter members of sheet material a sandwich tape (8) is stepwise indexed to and through a punching station (10), to which is successively supplied individual punching tool plates (3) from an indexing tool plate magazine (28). The tool plates (30) successively punch the contours of the letters in one layer of the sandwich tape (8), such that the surplus area portions of this layer (46) may later be pulled off from the remaining second carrier layer (44) of the tape (8), whereafter the sign letters are transferable to a final mounting surface with unchanged mutual positioning. The tape indexing means are controlled by memory means, which are prepared so as to define the necessary individual spacing between the letters in all relevant pairs of letters, whereby a high graphical quality of the product is automatically achieved.
