Black, green, pinkish red, Huang Sise containing large area color lump on the spot, the width of each color lump is equal to the width half of control strip, each
The height of color lump is the 40% of plate cylinder perimeter, and on the basis of the middle line of width direction, yellow block is above left side, magenta
Block is below left side, and for black block above right side, cyan block is kept for 1 centimetre between lower right-hand side, yellow block and pinkish red color lump
The blank of spacing, between black block and cyan block keep 1 centimetre of spacing blank, pinkish red color lump, cyan block respectively with control strip
Between keep 1 millimeter of spacing blank.Example as described above, color lump, every piece of width are black, green, pinkish red, Huang Sise on the spot
40 centimetres, it is highly 21.6 centimetres, is respectively arranged at position as shown in Figure 2.
The calculation method of journalism rotary press fountain solution preset value, specifically includes the following steps:
Step (1) makes No.1 test printing plate and No. two tests using the No.1 test chart and No. two test charts respectively
Printing plate.
Step (2) is installed on No.1 beta version to journalism rotary press, and four-color machine group output ink quantity and fountain solution are adjusted
Amount, makes four color ink Color uniformities and chromatic value meet newspaper printing requirement, is made on paper by gradually decreasing fountain solution output quantity
Margin part, the especially edge of control strip just starts dirty trace occur, and record starts the fountain solution for occurring before dirty trace
Output quantity setting value F1, the F that is recorded1Represent the condition for normally printing ink layer thickness close to blank but ink roller holding in the space of a whole page
Under, to resist optimum dampener liquid dosage required for space of a whole page scumming.It indicates are as follows:
F in formula (1)1Fountain solution supply when printing No.1 beta version is represented, E represents a print cycle and evaporated
Wetting liquid measure, fwRepresent the wetting liquid measure that the blank position of unit area coverage rate is shifted, foRepresent unit area coverage rate
The wetting liquid measure that is shifted of picture and text position, t1For the picture and text area coverage of No.1 beta version.Since control strip is on the space of a whole page
Shared area very little, i.e. t1Very little, the fountain solution supplied mainly are consumed in evaporation and are coated on space of a whole page blank position and turn again
It moves on on paper, is absorbed by paper, so having:
F1≈E+fw (2)
The four color ink Color uniformities and chromatic value meet newspaper printing requirement and refer to the blueness of each ink-covered area, product on control strip
The chromaticity distortion of red, yellow, black four colors can use in the error range that newspaper printing allows such as xrite-528 spectrophotometric
Meter fixed point is detected the chromatic value of each color lump on control strip or is detected using such as IntelliTrax automatic scanning system.
Step (3) is installed on journalism rotary press.Since the most important consumption ways of printing process fountain solution are creams
Change be then transferred on paper in ink, therefore picture and text area coverage it is bigger ink-covered area consumption fountain solution it is also more, need to mention
The wetting liquid measure of confession is also bigger.It is different that the inking device of offset press can control output according to different ink-covered area picture and text area coverages
Ink amount, and damping device according to ink-covered area realization zonal control function, when each ink-covered area picture and text area coverage difference, most
Excellent fountain solution supply is exactly the fountain solution supply when picture and text area coverage maximum ink-covered area is close but set-off does not occur.Print
When brushing No. two beta versions, by adjusting four-color machine group output ink quantity, four color ink Color uniformities and chromatic value is made to meet newspaper printing
It is required that making the side of margin part on paper, especially large area color lump on the spot by gradually decreasing fountain solution output quantity
Edge just starts dirty trace occur, and record starts the fountain solution output quantity F for occurring before dirty trace2, the F that is recorded2It represents and is tested with No. two
The image coverage of version under conditions of keeping normal printing ink layer thickness, is used to resist optimum dampener liquid required for space of a whole page scumming
Amount.It indicates are as follows:
F2=E+fw·(1-t2)+fo·t2 (3)
F in formula (3)2Fountain solution supply when representing No. two beta versions of printing, t2It represents and contains large area on No. two beta versions
The picture and text area coverage of the ink-covered area of color lump, such as Fig. 2 cyan version, the picture and text area of each ink-covered area of the middle line right side marked as 11 to 20
Coverage rate.It is available by converting according to formula (1) and formula (2):
Due to t2And t1Difference be equal to large area on the spot in ink-covered area where color lump, this on the spot color lump with respect to plate cylinder
The height of picture and text area coverage, the color lump on the spot is designed to the 40% of cylinder circumference, so t2And t1Difference be 40%,
Have:
Step (4) is directed at the axial centerline of printing machine with the width direction middle line of the digital document of the living-article to be printed of reading,
As unit of the width of one ink-covered area of printing machine, subregion is carried out to digital document, calculates the picture and text area coverage of each subregion, then
The maximum ink-covered area of picture and text area coverage is found out, the picture and text area coverage of note picture and text area coverage maximum ink-covered area is TSmax。
Step (5), multiplied by the perimeter of plate cylinder, is obtained the area of an ink-covered area, is denoted as S with the width of an ink-covered area.
Step (6) is with the picture and text area coverage of picture and text area coverage maximum ink-covered area described in step (3) divided by step (4) institute
The area for the ink-covered area stated obtains the picture and text coverage rate of picture and text area coverage maximum ink-covered area, is denoted as t, has:
Since each ink-covered area picture and text coverage rate of living-article to be printed is different, optimum dampener liquid supply should be according to picture and text area coverage
Maximum ink-covered area determines, has:
Wherein F indicates the optimum dampener liquid dosage when picture and text coverage rate of picture and text area coverage maximum ink-covered area is t.Convolution
(2) and formula (5), the preset value of the fountain solution output quantity of living-article to be printed is determined are as follows:
