The air buffer bottle 206 is connected to the negative pressure system through a pipeline. The negative pressure system keeps the varnish in the printing nozzle 203 to prevent it from overflowing. Printing is achieved by supplying varnish to the secondary ink bottle 204 while supplying air to the negative pressure system. A guide rail B208 is laid on the fixed plate 210. A lifting motor 205 is set on the fixed plate 210 through a fixing seat 211.

[0044] In this embodiment, in order to quickly cure the ink on the printed material, a supporting plate 201 for mounting a UV curing lamp 202 is provided on the side of the lifting plate assembly 207, and the UV curing lamp 202 is used to quickly cure the ink on the printed material.
[0045] In this embodiment, according to Figure 1 and Figure 7As shown, the bearing beam assembly 1 is provided with a nozzle protection mechanism 8 for protecting the printing mechanism 3, and the nozzle protection mechanism 8 includes a fixed bracket 801 arranged on the bearing beam assembly 1 and a bottom plate 807 connected to the fixed bracket 801, and an electric push cylinder 808 is provided below the bottom plate 807, and the output end of the electric push cylinder 808 passes through the bottom plate 807 and is connected to the ink pad carrier 804, thereby driving the ink pad carrier 804 to move up and down, and an ink pad 803 is provided above the ink pad carrier 804, that is, the ink pad carrier 804 is driven upward by the electric push cylinder 808 to attach the ink pad 803 to the print nozzle 203.

[0047] The load-bearing beam assembly 1 includes a crossbeam 102 and side plates 101 disposed on both sides of the crossbeam 102 .
[0048] Working principle: The material to be processed is transported to the workbench. The material is mainly printable or printed material, such as white cardboard, coated paper, corrugated paper, stickers, car stickers, PVC (polyvinyl chloride), etc. The material can also be roll material and sheet material. The visual acquisition module 303 is used to locate the position of the material to be processed. The material can be a material with an image printed on it or a material without an image. Because the material is placed at any position within the range of the workbench, there is a tilted placement. The visual acquisition module 303 can locate the exact position of the material to be processed. The calibration of the visual acquisition module 303 is obtained by calculating the ratio of the acquired image size to the actual image size to ensure the accuracy of the feature point position.
[0049] The visual acquisition module 303 uses a CCD camera, a camera or a scanning camera, and the visual acquisition module 303 obtains images of feature points on the material to be processed.
[0050] The characteristic points are corners, contours or characteristic marks on the material to be processed. The characteristic marks are preferably circular or cross-shaped positioning points and other characteristic marks that can be analyzed by software. Among them, materials with printed images generally use circular or cross-shaped positioning points on the image as characteristic marks, and materials without printed images use material contours or corners as characteristic points.
[0051] After the visual acquisition module 303 acquires and locates, the control system scans the feature points on the material to be processed one by one through the visual acquisition module 303, and the control system matches the feature point information in the original image with the feature points on the material to be processed, and calculates the position and rotation angle of the material to be processed. The control system automatically adjusts and corrects the original image and cutting data according to the calculated position and rotation angle of the material to be processed to achieve a complete match between the position of the material or the printed image. The printing mechanism 2 starts printing, and the printing mechanism 2 will perform position matching printing according to the image data after the original image is corrected until printing is completed. Thereafter, the cutting mechanism cuts according to the cutting data after correction. The cutting mechanism can include a combination of multiple cutting tools, and different tools have different processing effects, realizing functions such as half cutting, cutting through, and marking, and can make indentations or marks on the surface of the material to be processed.
[0052] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
