Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020055524A1] A method of performing an operation on a continuous sheet of stock material is provided. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method used to perform high speed operation on a continuous sheet of stock material. The continuous sheet of stock material can subsequently be received by a second system that performs a different operation. In one embodiment, the second system forms the continuous sheet of stock material into tabs for container end closures. The system can include an infeed accumulation device and an outfeed accumulation device, that enables the system to operate at a variable rate and out of phase with a high speed, coil fed manufacturing system to which the system may be removably integrated. The system can determine if the operation has been performed at a predetermined location of a portion of the continuous sheet.
