Abstract

Le traceur vectoriel (10) selon l'invention est pourvu d'une tête traceuse (18) qui se déplace sur la surface d'un support de traçage (12) dans un système de coordonnées X et Y. Une tête d'impression (28) à percussion faisant saillie, produisant des points et utilisant un ruban (32) est portée par la tête traceuse à une distance d'impression constante, au-dessus de la surface du support de traçage, ladite tête d'impression remplaçant la plume de traçage traditionnelle. Ledit traceur comprend également une tête d'impression multitête (28') pouvant produire des points (74) de différentes tailles, ladite tête remplaçant des plumes ayant des pointes de différentes tailles, une structure (84) permettant le maintien d'une distance constante d'impression, un méchanisme (88) permettant d'allonger au maximum la durée de vie du ruban, et des dispositifs de commande (38) permettant d'obtenir la qualité de ligne voulue.
