ABSTRACT:
A mandrel assembly for use in a machine for continuous printing of cylindrical containers, comprising a mandrel wheel; mandrel holders, pivotally mounted on circumferential portions of the mandrel wheel; elongate mandrels for supporting cylindrical containers on peripheral surfaces thereof, rotatably mounted on the mandrel holder and radially displaceable relative the central axis of rotation of the mandrel wheel; a cam follower rotatably mounted on each mandrel holder; and a cam track assembly operably associated with the cam followers for causing preselected radial displacement of the cam followers with respect to the central axis of rotation of the mandrel wheel which in turn causes preselected radial displacement of associated mandrel spindles relative a blanket wheel device to either cause a container to be printed or to be skipped from printing.
