Abstract:
A die output lane assembly for receiving a blank through an opening of a die-cutter machine includes a frame, a support structure, and a memory device. The support structure is attached to the frame to form a lane and is configured to receive the blank from the opening of the die-cutter machine and temporarily store the blank in the lane. The memory device is configured to store data associated with the die output lane assembly thereon. The data includes at least one of a dimension of the die output lane assembly, a dimension of a cutting die of the die-cutter machine, a dimension of the blank, a pick position for removing the blank, a retraction path for removing the blank, a speed of part handling, or placement position data for storing the blank.
