Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8604019A1] According to the fast printing method using tampons (13, 14), printing blocks (23, 24) and supports for the workpieces to be printed (33, 34), the latter (33, 34) are fixed in the supports; the tampons (13, 14) take the images of the inked blocks (23, 24) and report them to the workpieces (33, 34). The printing speed may be considerably increased by synchronizing the displacements of the tampons (13, 14), of the blocks (23, 24) and of the workpieces (33, 34) along closed paths (10, 20, 30). At least a portion of the path (10) of the tampons (13, 14) is parallel to a portion of the path (20) of the blocks (23, 24). At least another portion of the path (10) of the tampons (13, 14) is parallel to a portion of the path (30) of the workpieces (33, 34). The displacement of the corresponding portions is effected in the same direction. In said corresponding portions of the paths (10, 20, 30), on a predetermined section, the tampons (13, 14) are in turn perpendicularly displaced to take the image with an inked block (23, 24) and for transmitting the image to a workpiece (33, 34).
