Abstract
To activate a processing device which processes a surface of a moving work piece at regular intervals, wherein a predetermined time duration passes between an activation signal of the processing device and the processing on the surface, the movement of the work piece is sensed with a sensor that generates work pulses. A respective control pulse is generated if a predetermined number of work pulses has been generated. A number of the work pulses is repeatedly detected in a respective time interval that corresponds to the predetermined time duration. The activation signals are each generated at each control pulse of a series, and the activation signals are offset forward in time relative to the respective control pulse corresponding to the number of work pulses that have been detected in the respective time interval. The activation signals are output to the processing device.
