The present invention relates to a method of stacking individual sheets and a stacking machine for handling individual sheets, the stacking machine comprising a frame assembly (13) including support columns (711, 811) for supporting the delivery station (70), the transfer station (80) and the elevation station (82). The delivery station has a delivery table and the transfer station including a handling arm (85) is movable from a first position above the delivery table to a second position above the elevation station. The handling arm includes a holding member (86) for contacting the sheets individually and transferring the sheets individually from the delivery table to the elevation station and releasing the sheets individually at the elevation station. The elevation station has a platform for collecting the individual sheets and the platform is moved vertically from a first level to a second level for allowing the sheets to be stacked on top of the one another.

A stand-alone apparatus for cutting a web of media or tag stock into individual units for use downstream of a printer. The apparatus may cut vinyl, plastic, or RFID stock material in both back and forth directions. The apparatus comprises a housing, a carriage assembly and a movable cutter assembly. The cutter assembly is easily interchangeable and comprises a cutting element such as a wheel blade, and a pressure adjusting element for adjusting the amount of pressure applied by the cutting element to the stock material. Alternatively, the cutter assembly may be manufactured with a predetermined pressure load, but still permit an operator to adjust the depth of cut. The apparatus may be powered by and or in hardline or wireless communication with a printer, or may further comprise a computer microprocessor, memory and user interface to function wholly independent from a printer.

A cutter device includes a pair of pulleys including a first pulley and a second pulley, an endless belt spanning the pair of pulleys, a holder that holds a movable blade and moves in accordance with a movement of the endless belt, a first sensor configured to detect that a position of the movable blade is at a first position, and a second sensor configured to detect that the position of the movable blade is at a second position. The first sensor and the second sensor are disposed at positions overlapping with the holder in an up-down direction. The holder includes a first arm protruding toward the first position and a second arm protruding toward the second position. The first arm faces the first sensor when the holder is at the first position, and the second arm faces the second sensor when the holder is at the second position.

A printing apparatus including a roll paper accommodating unit configured to accommodate roll paper, a single sheet paper accommodating unit configured to accommodate single sheet paper, a printing unit configured to perform printing on the roll paper fed from the roll paper accommodating unit, and to perform printing on the single sheet paper fed from the single sheet paper accommodating unit, and a main body frame that supports the single sheet paper accommodating unit and the roll paper accommodating unit, in which the roll paper accommodating unit and the single sheet paper accommodating unit are located in ranges, in a front-back direction of the printing apparatus, overlapping a range in which the printing unit is present, and are located downward of the printing unit with respect to a vertical direction, and the roll paper accommodating unit and the single sheet paper accommodating unit are movable frontward of the printing apparatus.

A cutting device comprises an upper support and a lower support arranged above and below a media plane, and a contact-free coupling device to engage and disengage the upper support and the lower support, wherein one of the upper support and the lower support is a master support and the other one of the upper and lower supports is a slave support, and further comprises a master cutting blade arranged in the master support, wherein when the upper and lower supports are engaged, the slave support follows movement of the master support.

A system that converts sheet material into packaging templates includes a converting assembly that performs conversion functions, such as cutting, creasing, and scoring, on the sheet material as the sheet material moves through the converting machine in a first direction. The converting assembly may be mounted on a frame such that the converting assembly is elevated above a support surface.
