A printing process for a metal container includes the steps: Heating the metal container, in particular formed as a metal bottle ready for filling, to a pre-treatment temperature lying in an interval between 100 degrees Celsius and 250 degrees Celsius, cooling the metal container to a temperature below 100 degrees Celsius, locally activating a printing zone, formed on an outer surface of the metal container to increase a surface energy of the printing zone and/or locally heating the printing zone to a printing temperature which is in an interval between 30 degrees Celsius and 70 degrees Celsius, printing the printing zone with a printing method.

A processing apparatus for container blanks, with a machine bed, a feed device for feeding container blanks, a discharge device for removal of container blanks, a rotatably mounted rotary worktable with several locating devices designed for conveyance of container blanks along a circular orbit section shaped conveyance path, wherein the conveyance path determines a first circle segment shaped surface section, several operating devices lying opposite the rotary worktable in the radial direction, and at least one conveyor designed for conveyance of components of container blanks and/or for container blanks along a conveyor section between a component mounting and an assigned operating device. The component mounting of the conveyor is located in a second circle segment shaped surface section, which supplements the first surface section determined by the circular orbit section shaped conveyance path to make a full circle.

Processing apparatus and method of operating a processing apparatus

A handling device for handling workpieces including a rotor mounted for rotation about a rotor axis, a rotary drive for introducing a rotary motion into the rotor and at least one workholder assembly, the workholder assembly including at least two workholders, which are mounted on the rotor and designed for an at least paired picking up of workpieces at a pickup position and for an at least paired delivery of workpieces at a delivery position during the rotary motion of the rotor, and further including adjusting system, which is coupled to at least one workholder of the workholder assembly, and which is designed for a cyclical adjustment of a spacing of workholders of the workholder assembly as a function of the rotary motion of the rotor.
