ABSTRACT:
A system and method are disclosed for automatically stamping designs onto candles under computer control. For a given stamped mark, a turret selects the tool with a specific die is to be stamped. The turret orients the tool angle about the axis defined by the tool's travel line during stamping by use of a planetary gear system. A rotatable chuck mounted on a movable bed selects the location on the candle surface to receive the die. A linear solenoid plunges the selected and oriented tool onto the candle. This process is repeated until all marks in a desired design are completed. The planetary gear system is designed so that all tool orientations are controlled by one motor, and tool anti-rotation during travel is controlled by the face length of a sun gear.
