Description

The invention relates to a device for tempering, a printing tower for the waterless newspaper printing and newspaper printing machines according to the features of claim 1, 8, 19, 20 and 25, respectively.

In the DE 10 2005 015 197 A1 is a printing tower of a newspaper printing machine disclosed which is designed for newspaper printing with printing units in dry offset. In one embodiment, the printing units have a single-roller inking unit with metering pump device. In this case, the forme cylinders are preferably cooled and / or kept at a constant temperature in order to avoid toning under changing operating conditions during printing. A tempering is also preferably provided for the distribution cylinders of the inking unit, wherein the temperature control preferably takes place from the inside by means of a suitable fluid such that the surface area of the distribution cylinders is maintained within the temperature range between 22 ° C. and 40 ° C. and the surface area of the forme cylinders in the temperature range z. B is maintained between 20 ° C and 30 ° C. For a trouble-free printing is a tack with a tack value between 2 and 16, z. B. between 6 and 9.5, in particular between 7 and 8.5 strive, the values of the respective test equipment depend. The tack can be tested by testing equipment such. B an Incomer or a Tackomat Fa. Prüfbau be determined.

Such a range for the speed between 6 and 9.5, in particular between 7 and 8.5, is also in the WO 03/045694 A1 discloses in connection with an inking unit of a newsprint printing unit, wherein the ink is supplied from a paint supply via an anilox roller to the forme cylinder.

The WO 2005/097504 A2 discloses a plurality of modularly assembled printing towers, wherein in some embodiments, the printing units of the printing tower are designed as waterless offset printing units for the newspaper printing. In various variants, inking modules can be provided, which are designed as a short inking unit, as einzughiges roller inking unit or as a two-pass roller inking unit. U. a. is in a variant according to 8th discloses a teibarer printing tower for newspaper printing with printing units in dry offset, which have a single-roller inking unit. Three of four cylinders of the double printing units are preferably linearly adjustable in linear bearings for the purpose of pressure on / off positioning.

By the WO 2006/072558 A1 is a printing towers having printing machine for waterless printing of uncoated or lightly coated newsprint known, the printing units are formed with anilox rollers having short inking units. For ink flow control, the anilox rollers can each be tempered individually via inner temperature control circuits, which can be fed from supply circuits. The forme cylinders of the printing tower can be tempered individually, in pairs or in larger groups by means of temperature control circuits that can also be fed from supply circuits.

In the WO 2009/097912 A1 a printing tower of a printing machine is disclosed, wherein the printing unit is formed with a width of at least two stationary newspaper pages and the inking unit as a short two-row roller inking unit with a close to the dampening unit and a dampening remote drive cylinder in two parallel pulleys.

The DE 10 2008 064 635 A1 discloses a printing press line with an anilox roller printing tower of a first waterless printing machine for printing either newsprint or higher quality paper. A printing tower of a second, newsprint-printing machine line is conventionally formed with roller inking units and dampening units, whereby webs or partial webs originating from both machines can be guided on a common funnel structure. The ink used in the anilox rolls dry offset printing has at 25 ° z. B. a viscosity of at least 120 Pa · s, in particular at least 150 Pa · s.

The EP 0 652 104 A1 discloses a waterless I-printing unit of a commercial printing machine, wherein the two transfer cylinders of the printing unit by a tempering, the two forme cylinders of the printing unit by a tempering, the distribution cylinder of the double printing by a temperature control and the ink fountain rollers are tempered by a tempering. In the respective temperature control a temperature control of the components to be tempered is regulated by the fact that the circulating volume flow is varied. The printing plate is tempered here to about 28 to 30 ° C, the inking unit to about 25 to 27 ° C.

The US 2002/0112636 A1 relates to a horizontal web-fed rotary printing machine, as is common for commercial printing. The wet or dry offset printing units arranged horizontally one behind the other are designed to be tempered by passing tempering fluid through a dividing flow line from a fluid reservoir to the inking units of the printing units, wherein the fluid flow can be adjusted by valves provided in the respective return line for temperature control. In a further education is tempered by the same feed line parallel to the inking rollers of a same cycle of the forme cylinder of the same printing unit. Alternatively, the flow rate of all parallel, tempering the printing units branches can be varied before their division by a controllable valve via a bypass line.

The DE 602 02 551 T2 relates to a waterless offset printing machine for a multi-color overlap printing, wherein the form cylinder cooperate with a common transfer cylinder. Each forme cylinder is associated with an inking unit having a plurality of friction cylinders which can be temperature-controlled by fluid via a secondary system line, and a heat-treatable ductor and a transfer roller via a first-system line. The forme cylinders are cooled by injected air.

The invention has for its object to provide a Voprrichtung for temperature control, a printing tower with inking units having printing units for waterless newspaper printing and such a printing tower having newspaper printing machines.

The object is achieved by the features of claim 1, 8, 19, 20 and 25 respectively.

The achievable with the present invention consist in particular in that a temperature control, a printing tower with particular inking units having printing units for newspaper printing and such a printing tower having newspaper printing machines are created which at reasonable cost allows trouble-free waterless printing using newsprint, especially natural papers ,

Due to a special design of the printing tower temperature control, on the one hand an optimal application of ink (without toning and without plucking) is achieved, while z. B. for the temperature of inking rollers reduced effort to drive stable processes.

The decoupled temperature control circuits in particular a low-noise operation is guaranteed. Possibly. coarser structures in, for example, the fluid system extending over a multiplicity of printing units are fluidically decoupled from the innermost circuits which interact with the tempered rollers and / or cylinders. On the one hand, the risk of contamination and the resulting disruption in the internal circuits, the secondary circuits, can be minimized. On the other hand, can be provided for the provision of refrigeration to the heat exchangers with large cross-sections as needed high cooling capacity much cold and low pressure loss.

By using a printing ink of special properties and / or setting specially selected temperature levels for the components, a sufficiently good ink flow can be achieved in the roller inking unit and at the same time a toning on the printing form can be prevented, and preference can be given to tempering transfer cylinders.

The special architecture of the tempering, for example, associated with the pressure tower primary circuits and individually controllable secondary circuits -. B. for individual printing cylinder, in particular form cylinder, or printing couple cylinder pairs, in particular Formzylinderpaare -, and in development with at least one preferably inking rollers arranged on the same web page printing units associated secondary circuit and possibly with a the pressure towers associated primary circuits and primary circulation branches connecting parent, is an effective, responsive and needs-based tempering created. This ensures trouble-free printing on natural or newsprint, z. B. already in a startup phase of the printing press.

In one embodiment of the inking unit as a roller inking unit, in comparison to anilox rollers having inking units, a printing ink which is more strongly adapted to the ink application to the forme cylinder and / or to the printing material can be used without decisively influencing the quantity of ink to be delivered. By using a zonally adjustable metering device, in particular a color box with zonally adjustable control elements, the color input viewed in the axial direction can be influenced in a targeted manner. Furthermore, it is not necessary to control the color input by varying the temperature. The temperature control can thus be completely decoupled from the required color flow. For example, it is possible to realize a lower tack of the printing ink in the area of the forme cylinder while at the same time increasing the viscosity of the printing ink in the area of the inking unit. The temperature in the inking unit can thereby be chosen even contrary to the requirements of the forme cylinder. For example, the temperature at the forme cylinder is set lower than that at the at least one tempered distribution cylinder of the inking unit. In the case of the roller inking unit, the tempering of inking rollers can even be dispensed with in a simplified embodiment. Gf. can be provided in this case, a temperature of the color in the ink fountain.

In particular, the formation of the inking units in their arrangement de rollers offer advantages in terms of good trituration with minimum space requirements and contamination. The special design of the Reibzylinders has advantages in terms of good homogenization of the temperature. The same applies to the formation of the forme cylinder.

In one embodiment of the inking unit as a short inking unit with an anilox rollers, a shortened startup time and / or a smaller space requirement is advantageous due to the shortness of the roller compactor between the ink reservoir and the forme cylinder. In the case of the short inking unit, the temperature of the anilox roller of each printing unit is independent of the anilox rollers of other printing units of particular advantage. This allows the color quantity of each printing unit to be controlled individually.

Of particular advantage is also an embodiment and / or operation of z. B. a plurality of such printing towers having printing machine, wherein a printing tower while maintaining a same ink type without replacing the ink optionally in heatset mode, eg. B. with a heatset web, and in coldset operation, for. B. with a coldset web, operable or operated. Also advantageous is the mode of operation, wherein a coldset web or partial web printed in the coldset in a dry offset printing tower is brought together on a hopper assembly together with a heatset web or partial web printed in the heatset in a dry offset printing tower.

19 an exemplary representation of the speed of preferred printing inks. A printing machine, in particular a printing press designed in the manner of a newspaper printing press, has at least one printing unit group 01 for double-sided printing of a web 02 , z. B. paper web 02 but preferably several, e.g. B. at least two, advantageously z. B. at least three groups of printing groups 01 for the two-sided multi-color printing of several at the same time, z. B. at least two, advantageously z. B. at least three tracks 02 , on. By train 02 or per printing unit group 01 is at least a role developer 03 , especially reel changers 03 , provided, from which the respective track 02 unwindable and via corresponding guide elements of the respective printing group 01 can be supplied (see, for example, 1 ).

The print groups 01 The "newspaper press" are characterized in contrast to the commercial printing, preferably by their training as so-called printing towers 01 in which the guided through them tracks 02 (predominantly) guided vertically are. The respective printing tower 01 has z. B. all for a double-sided multi-color web to be printed 02 required pressure points 10 on. For a four-color printing on both sides, the printing tower 01 at least eight single (bruises) 10 or four double pressure points 10 on. Preferably, there are at least two or at least three printing towers 01 in a same machine escape. As a result of this embodiment of the printing press, at least two, three or more webs are on a small footprint 02 simultaneously printable and after printing together on a same funnel construction 04 for common further processing in z. B. a folder 06 (eg cross folder for cross cutting and cross folding). Are the print groups 01 for printing more than two juxtaposed printed pages, especially newspaper pages, z. B. four or six newspaper pages or printing plates wide, trained, so for example, between the print groups 01 and the funnel construction 04 a turning tower 07 provided with at least one turning edge having a pair of turning bars. By merging multiple tracks 02 the page numbers required in newspaper printing can be produced at least for the standard product in the inline process, ie without or at least without any significant subsequent gathering. Under "newspaper printing press" should also such printing towers 01 having printing presses to be understood, which additional aggregates, for. B. one or more dryers 05 , have, and in principle also for printing higher quality substrates, eg. B. of trains 02 ' higher quality in z. As a heatset operation are suitable. In contrast to a commercial press installation, in which each horizontally extending web is associated with a dryer, no, or at least less dryer can here 05 as the number of printing towers 01 or railways 02 intended. The dryer 05 is z. B. as a radiation dryer (IR, UV) or in particular as a thermal dryer 05 educated. It is advantageous for each printing tower 01 at least one train path without passing through a dryer 05 intended.

The printing machine is preferably characterized by the fact that, for. In at least one mode of operation (eg, in coldset mode), at least through one of the towers 01 a train 02 is guided and / or printed or can be printed, which is preferably by uncoated (or at most slightly coated) paper, preferably so-called. Newsprint, machine smooth or satined by calendering formed. This type of printing material is also referred to below as "newsprint". In particular, this can be done through multiple towers 01 simultaneously guided such tracks 02 be. The coldset through the respective printing tower 01 guided train 02 For example, by open-pored and / or possibly satined and / or in particular wood-containing paper, z. B. as so-called. "Natural paper" (ie with untreated, possibly mechanically satin finished surface), be formed. It may also contain a proportion of recycled waste paper (eg, at least 50% secondary fibers derived from recycled paper) or it may even be a web made substantially of waste paper 02 act. The wood content (especially the lignin) of the newspaper contributes to the rigidity of the mostly large and thin pages of the finished newspaper product, while z. B. the open porosity of the newspaper a "knocking" of the color, and thereby less expensive production, usually without drying support by a specially provided and / or activated dryer allows. This thin newsprint paper has z. B. a basis weight after ISO 536 preferably between 35 to 60 g / m ² , in particular 40 to 50 g / m ² for "normal" (machine-smooth) and 50 to 60 g / m ² for satin (eg by calender) on. Is the train 02 made of satin or possibly slightly coated paper, so it is not completely "sealed" but has in the second case z. B. a coating weight below 10 g / m ² , in particular at most 5 g / m ² . These papers, especially the uncoated or barely coated, have in common that they have open-pore or at least no closed-pore surface and, in particular in the case of recycled paper (in whole or in part); z. B. (compared to only primary fibers having papers) shorter fibers. The thus formed, coldset printed or to be printed web 02 has, for example, a roughness according to Bendtsen ( ISO 8791/2 ) from Z. B. more than 70 ml / min (eg, simply satin), in particular of more than 80 ml / min (simply satin) or even at least 100 ml / min (machine smooth) on. However, this superficial fuzziness and / or roughness, in contrast to papers used in commercial printing, can cause individual fibers to be torn off by the "stickiness" of the ink, resulting in errors in printing and printing instead of error-free image transfer leads to contamination of the paint. In the case of the dry offset present here, the fibers are not transported away by dampening solution otherwise present in the wet offset. All this leads to great obstacles in the area of newspaper printing for the application of waterless offset printing or dry offset printing.

In order to meet the problem set out with the least possible technical and regulatory effort, and at the same time to ensure stable printing conditions and high print quality for newspaper printing in the dry offset process, the printing press is at least the printing press that can be operated or operated with the above mentioned paper 01 , in the manner described below with printing units 08 and inking 09 executed or operated.

The printing unit 08 is a so-called "waterless" offset printing unit 08 without Fechtmittelquelle, ie formed without a next to the ink still dampening additional einbringendes dampening unit. Per printing unit 08 is one by train 02 in pressure-on co-working printing cylinder 11 , z. B. transfer cylinder 11 , with respect to the ink path upstream with the transfer cylinder 11 co-operating printing cylinder 12 , z. B. form cylinder 12 , and with this an inking unit introducing the ink upstream 09 intended.

The pressure point 10 is preferably through a pressure nip of the transfer cylinder 11 with another printing cylinder 13 formed, which the transfer cylinder 11 over the web to be printed 02 serves as an abutment. This third printing cylinder 13 can as a pure, no ink leading impression cylinder, but advantageously as a second, ink-carrying transfer cylinder 13 a second printing unit 08 with a second as a forme cylinder 14 trained printing cylinder 14 be executed. This forms with the first printing unit 08 at each other on the train 02 employed transfer cylinders 11 ; 13 one as a double pressure point 10 trained for the simultaneous two-sided printing pressure point 10 (see eg 2 . 17 ). In an advantageous embodiment, the centers of the two printing unit cylinders lie in the print-on position 11 ; 12 of the printing unit 08 and the third printing cylinder 13 , in the version with double pressure point 10 the centers of all four printing cylinders 11 ; 12 ; 13 ; 14 in a common plane E (see eg 2 ).

In the version with counter-pressure cylinders, the at least eight pressure points 10 having printing tower 01 For example, be carried out two stacked nine or ten-cylinder printing units. In the illustrated advantageous embodiment, the printing tower 01 four double printing units 17 from two printing units each 08 on which all in a common frame, two double printing units 17 in two stacked racks, or one double printing unit each 17 can be provided in four stacked racks. The double printing units 17 can be angled in deviation from the advantageous planar design (level E) in a conventional manner, for. B. all or mixed as n or u-printing units or as a respective n- and u-printing unit having H-pressure units may be formed. The double printing units 17 are lying, ie they extend in each case z. B. in predominantly horizontal orientation. In all cases, the printing tower points 01 the newspaper press - in contrast to illustration printing units - one above the other several printing units 08 for printing on both sides of a multi-color at least partially from bottom to top, ie substantially vertically, through the printing tower 01 running track 02 on. For example, there are several, z. B. four, one after the other on the same side of the train 02 printing units 04 - In particular one above the other - arranged.

In an advantageous, not explicitly shown embodiment of several, z. B. four double printing units 17 stacked printing tower 01 in the area of its pressure points 04 designed such that a space in the open space between the transfer cylinders 11 ; 13 can be entered by operating personnel. These are the printing cylinder 11 ; 12 ; 13 ; 14 and auxiliary equipment (eg inking units 09 ) on one side of a through the printing tower 01 to be performed or carried train 02 each end face on first frame sections and the printing cylinder 11 ; 12 ; 13 ; 14 and auxiliary equipment (eg inking units 09 ) on the other side of the train 02 each mounted on the front side on second frame sections. The first and second frame sections carrying these printing unit units are mounted on a ground plane in such a way that a distance between the first and second frame sections can be changed. Preferably z. B. first frame sections away from the pressure point direction (maintenance position) and in pressure point direction movable (operating position), while the second frame sections are arranged stationary. The divisibility of the printing tower 01 allows a more crowded design than just externally accessible printing towers 01 and therefore an extremely short distance between the bruises 10 So also between the first and last pressure point 10 so that a result of inking "waxing" of the web 02 between the first and the last point of pressure 10 can be reduced to a minimum. This applies in particular in connection with open-pore, ie, for example, uncoated or slightly coated printing material in which moisture contained in the printing ink penetrates more quickly and which is more susceptible to growth due to its (unprotected) fiber structure.

Basically, this is i. V. m. the waterless offset printing, especially newspaper offset printing, also mentioned on printing machines or printing towers 01 or printing units 08 and apply mutatis mutandis to their operating situations or modes of operation, which indeed have a dampening unit, but this is set in the relevant operating situation or mode of operation out of service.

The two printing cylinders 11 ; 12 respectively. 13 ; 14 a printing unit 08 are by at least one drive motor 15 mechanically independent of the other printing units 08 of the printing tower 01 driven. This can be done in pairs by a common drive motor 15 , or preferably by individual, each of the other printing cylinders 11 ; 12 ; 13 ; 14 and from the ink works 09 mechanically independent drive motors 15 respectively.

The transfer cylinder 11 ; 13 has on its circumference at least one, possibly up to a resulting from the attachment in a cylinder channel gap, over the entire circumference reaching blanket. This can also extend over the entire effective cylinder length in an advantageous embodiment. In an alternative embodiment, several, z. B. two or three, in the above sense over the entire circumference reaching blankets arranged side by side. It is advantageous in this case, an embodiment, wherein only two (two-page width or three-page width) blankets are arranged side by side, so that a joint with the transfer cylinder 11 ; 13 dividing half-length symmetry plane coincides. Especially for dry offset applications, especially i. V. m. Newsprint (see below), is an embodiment of advantage, wherein each transfer cylinder 11 ; 13 a remotely operable and / or automatic washing device 16 assigned. Preferably, this is designed to work with a cloth. Preferably, the transfer cylinder 11 ; 13 formed without tempering, ie it is not in operative connection to a tempering.

The form cylinder 12 of the printing unit 08 carries on its periphery one or more formed for the waterless offset printing printing forms. Their outwardly directed surface has as color-repellent, ie no color accepting and thus ultimately non-printing, places z. B. silicone-containing areas, which are interrupted by silicone-free (or silicone-free) so ink receptive and thus printing sites, the latter thus form the printing pattern of the printing form. The print pattern embodying the printed image of the relevant color separation (eg black, yellow, magenta or cyan) is for example a (eg amplitude-modulated) screen resolution of at least 60 lines / cm, advantageously at least 80 lines / cm, preferably between 80 and Based on 160 lines / cm. In this case, the grid can basically be formed by amplitude or frequency modulation (the latter periodically or advantageously stochastically). Advantageously, the printing form, the printed image of the extract on the basis of a z. B. stochastic frequency modulated screening on.

The form cylinder 12 ; 14 is each temperature-controlled, ie as a temperature-controlled component 12 ; 14 educated. For this purpose, it is preferably connected to a tempering device and formed with permeable by the tempering temperature control fluid. Preferably, the form cylinder 12 ; 14 (In contrast to a pure cooling) formed in the manner tempered by the tempering, that a temperature of the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 flowing through fluid and / or the temperature of the lateral surface and / or located on the cylinder jacket ink in a predeterminable temperature range is adjustable and can be maintained. In a preferred embodiment, at least one control circuit is provided for this purpose. In a further advantageous with respect to a start-up further training includes the temperature control in addition to a temperature control the cooling fluid as needed cooling source also a temperature control the heating of the heating medium, for. B. a Heizfluidkreislauf or a heating unit.

The temperature-controlled forme cylinder 12 ; 14 has z. B. in the region of one of its end faces (eg operating side) a coaxial rotary feedthrough for the inflow and outflow of the tempering, and in the region of the opposite end face (eg drive side) the rotary positive drive (drive motor 15 and / or a transmission part).

In this way, a certain balance between the tempering with little and already more heated Temperierfluids takes place in each with respect. Color guide relevant axial section, which effectively sets everywhere a mixing temperature or at least a profile with very low amplitudes.

As in 2 for the upper double printing unit 17 indicated, is preferably a storage 35 for at least one of the transfer cylinders 11 ; 13 provided, which allows the pressure on / off along a linear travel. The adjustment direction along the linear travel forms with one of the two transfer cylinders 11 ; 13 in pressure-on connecting plane z. B. at most an angle of 15 °, preferably at most 10 °, and therefore acts predominantly to the pressure point 10 out or away from it. At least both forme cylinders are advantageous 12 ; 14 and at least one of the two transfer cylinders 11 ; 13 , preferably all four printing cylinder 11 ; 12 ; 13 ; 14 of the double printing unit 17 stored so adjustable. For this purpose, the so-stored printing cylinder 11 ; 12 ; 13 ; 14 stored in a radial bearing bearing block, which in turn in linear bearings in terms the adjusting direction is movably mounted. By this linear adjustable training of storage 35 For example, it is possible to carry out an adjusting position that depends, for example, on the printing material, ie, for example, the printing nip and / or the printing force, without any disturbing pivoting movement.

In a particularly advantageous embodiment with regard to pressure gap and / or pressure force, a pressure cylinder is movable with respect to pressure on / off 11 ; 12 ; 13 ; 14 , in particular at least one of the transfer cylinders 11 ; 13 , By a force-controllable actuator, z.

In this inking unit 09 should the paint dosing system 18 preferably as a continuous inking system, and the inking unit 09 especially as a film inking unit 09 be executed. Between paint dosing system 18 and form cylinder 12 ; 14 a compactor is provided by which the registered ink "triturated", that is as uniform as possible on the roll circumferences. The color input is not as in the case of a so-called. Short inking unit on an anilox roller, in particular the temperature of such an anilox roller, but on the Farbdosiersystem 18 controlled. A as a roller inking unit 09 trained inking unit 09 is preferably formed without an anilox roller. In the present embodiment for the inking unit 09 Thus, no ink metering is provided by means of a squeegee (for example, a doctor blade or doctor blade) which is placed on an anilox roller. The control of the color input is preferably carried out over that for a film inking unit 09 typical mechanisms.

In the color flow of the paint dosing system 18 to the form cylinder 12 ; 14 Promoted color is thus from the central roller 26 parallel over one and the other distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 guided. About the two branches, especially about the distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 , Color is directly or indirectly on at least one inking roller 22 ; 23 ; 24 transfer. Preferably, each of the distribution cylinders closes 19 ; 21 downstream immediately at least one inking roller 22 ; 23 ; 24 at. Preferably, however, at least three inking rollers 22 ; 23 ; 24 provided, wherein z. B. the first with the form cylinder 12 ; 14 co-acting inking roller 24 with the direction of rotation of the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 considered first distribution cylinder 21 and the two subsequent inking rollers 22 ; 23 with the direction of rotation of the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 second distribution cylinder 19 work together. Basically, four, so per distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 be provided two inking rollers. If the distribution of the ink application to be moved, so can the middle of three inking rollers 23 the first distribution cylinder 21 to be struck. The application of ink is then reinforced over the middle inking roller. Preferably, at least two inking rollers 22 ; 23 ; 24 a different diameter, for example by at least 3%, in particular at least 5%, based on the smaller of the diameter on. For example, here is the inking roller 24 formed with a larger diameter than the others, which alone with a distribution cylinder 21 works together.

The central roller 26 acts upstream with a z. B. as a film roll 27 trained roller 27 together, which z. B. is formed with a hard and / or structured lateral surface. This roller 27 in turn acts upstream with another roller 28 , z. B. a ductor roller 28 together, from which she receives the printing ink. The centers of the roller 27 and the ductor roller 28 are preferably mounted spaced apart such that a gap between the color-free lateral surfaces 31 , z. B. a gap 31 a width of 0.03 to 0.08 mm, remains. This is large enough that the bare lateral surfaces are not in contact, but small enough that through, for example, as a film roller 27 trained roller 27 Printing ink from the inked fountain roller 28 can be removed. In an advantageous embodiment, the width of the gap 31 adjustable by z. B. the Ducktorwalze 28 (if necessary together with components of the paint dosing system 18 ) and / or the film roll 27 (If necessary, together with other components of the compactor) is mounted or movable relative to each other at a distance.

B. parallel secondary circuit 37 ; 38 and the primary circuit 43 ; 44 ; ( 59 ) formed separately, but thermally via a respective heat exchanger 46 ; 67 to a primary circuit 43 ; 59 ; 77 are coupled.

The secondary circuit 37 ; 38 has at least one secondary circuit-side thermal coupling with the heat exchanger ( 46 ( 67 ) and a pump 47 ( 68 ), wherein this secondary circuit 37 ( 38 ) tempering control loop at least one a temperature of the fluid and / or the / the forme cylinder (s) 12 ; 14 and / or the roller (s) 19 ; 21 ; 86 and / or the component surface-measuring sensor S01; S02; S03; S03 ', S04; S05 (S0x) is assigned to the controlled system. In the control and / or regulating device 49 is then the value for the actual temperature T _{ist of} the destination, ie the sensor to be used S01; S02; S03; S03 ', S04; S05 (S0x) with one for this temperature control circuit 37 ( 38 ), Taking account of the relevant destination, ie the sensor relied S0x presettable or preset nominal temperature T _nom compared (or target range for the temperature) and at deviation over control of the valve 51 ( 69 ) a flow change from the heat exchangers 46 ; 67 made on the primary circuit side fluid according to an underlying control algorithm. The setpoint value can also be a value of a maximum permissible temperature.

In a continuation of the secondary circuit shown in dashed lines 37 ( 38 ) can in the circuit additionally one optional by the control and / or regulating device 49 activatable and / or controllable heating device 52 , z. B. an electric heater, z. B. may be provided as so-called. "Heating cartridge". About this heater 52 in this case, if necessary, the circulating fluid (and thus the form cylinder to be tempered 12 ; 14 or roller 19 ; 21 ) are heated.

A control circuit thus comprises at least one temperature measurement (actual value) at the destination (in the fluid circuit and / or on the roller) 19 ; 21 ; 86 or the printing cylinder 11 ; 12 ; 13 ; 14 ) S0x (eg, S03; S03 '), a controller or control process comparing the actual value with a predetermined or predefinable setpoint for the destination (here, for example, in the control and / or regulating device 49 implemented control process), a component (roller 19 ; 21 ; 86 or printing cylinder 11 ; 12 ; 13 ; 14 ) and cooperating with the component fluid circuit, for. B. the heat exchanger primary circuit side flowing through the fluid circuit, as a controlled system, and at least one acting on the controlled system, in particular on the fluid circuit actuator 51 ( 69 ), here z. B. the controllable valve 51 ( 69 ), on.

As a result, it is possible to monitor the cooling capacities and to detect a fault, for example due to defective cylinder or roller elevators, or incorrect setting forces. If, for example, an excessively high contact force occurs, then an increased cooling capacity is required to maintain the required target temperature.

In principle, a plurality of measured or actual values can also be included in the process processing and / or multiple actuators (for example a plurality of valves and / or a pumping capacity and / or the activity of a heating medium) acting on the same circuit may be provided by the Regulator or control process to be addressed or be.

This is then z. B. formed depending on the machine speed. The same is the same in the same way to the tempering of a roller 19 ; 21 via a same tempering temperature control 38 with corresponding fluid, measuring points and actuator (s) 69 transferred to. The means for determining the target temperature T _soll need not structurally in a same objective control and / or regulating device 49 be accommodated, but can also be provided in the control room itself or a machine control. In this case, the setpoint temperatures T _soll (or temperature ranges) of the above-mentioned control and / or regulating device 49 of the relevant control circuits (or temperature control circuits 37 ( 38 )) as a target specification data technically of centrally or decentrally arranged control processes having control and / or regulating device 49 transmitted.

Preferably, the fluid in the primary circuit 43 by at least one pump 56 ( 64 ), which z. B. in the flow line 53 in front of a first sampling point 57 ( 61 ) is arranged.

Especially before or during a restart of the machine can be opened by opening the valve 66 ( 79 ) that in the lines of the primary circuit 43 ( 59 ) standing "warm" fluid quickly tempered or replaced, so this is not only by the components to be tempered 12 ; 14 ; 19 ; 21 has to flow.

The temperature control by means of the temperature control circuit 37 ( 38 ) is thus not (or at least not on a scheduled basis) via the variation of a component to be tempered by the component to be tempered (eg roller (s)). 19 ; 21 or printing cylinder 12 ; 14 ) to leading flow, but via a variation of the primary circuit side by the relevant heat exchanger 46 ; 67 Volume flow (for example, at a substantially constant volume flow in the secondary circuit 37 ( 38 )). Of course, in the secondary circuit 37 ; 38 also a change in volume flow, z. B. for basic adjustment or adjustments or readjustment required relative pressure levels (see below), but this is not to be understood in the sense understood here of the operational tempering. Operationally, the regulation of the fluid temperature in the secondary circuit takes place here 37 ( 38 ) via the volume flow of the thermally with the relevant secondary circuit 37 ; 38 , z.

The - at least form cylinder 12 ; 14 tempering secondary circuits 37 supplying - primary circuit 43 can be either closed, the printing tower 01 be assigned associated circuit, which optionally one in the primary circuit 43 arranged tempering device 60 , z. B. a source of cold 60 , In particular a controllable cooling unit 60 , characterized by which in the primary circuit 43 circulating fluid can be cooled, for example, to a temperature below ambient temperature (see, for example, US Pat. 5 ). With several for a printing tower 01 provided primary circuits 43 or primary circuit branches 43 and / or one of the primary circuit 43 independent tempering of a roller 19 ; 21 tempering secondary circuit 38 can also be on the printing tower 01 limited parent circulation 77 , z. B. Supply circuit 77 be provided, which then, for example, the temperature control 58 contains and the primary circuit 43 or the primary circuits 43 and / or the independently to be supplied secondary circuit 38 feeds (see, for example, below to 15 ). In this case, that's the printing tower 01 assigned tempering device 39 autonomous and decentralized of tempering equipment 39 other printing towers 01 , The tempering device 60 In this case, it may be designed as a commercially available temperature control unit with a thermostat which provides a fluid at the output to a desired temperature (possibly via a control device). This tempering device 60 In an advantageous embodiment, it may also comprise a heating means in order to be able to heat the temperature of the fluid to the desired temperature, for example in cold seasons.

However, in an advantageous alternative embodiment (see, eg, below to 16 ) is the primary circuit 43 in conjunction with a multiple towers 01 parent circuit 59 , z. B. parent primary circuit 59 , from which for the primary circuit 43 , z. B. compared to the secondary circuit 37 ( 38 ) colder, fluid over one sampling point 61 ( 81 ) and in which a return point 62 ( 82 ) Fluid back from the primary circuit 43 is fed back. In this case, set the primary circuits 43 the printing towers 01 parallel "loops" or branches, z. B. primary circuit branches 43 , a parent primary circuit 59 The actual primary cycle ( 43 ; 59 ) can then as from the parent cycle 59 and the parallel primary circuit branches 43 to be considered. In the interface between primary circuit branch 43 and higher-level circulation 59 ( 77 ) could basically a targeted metering and temperature control for the primary circuit branch 43 be provided. Preferably, however, no separate temperature control via a metering means of a valve is provided. The in the primary circuit branch 43 entering volume flow is due to the interaction of the pumps 56 ( 64 ) and pressure conditions is determined. Possibly. can be a differential pressure peak 56 be provided, through which the pressure gradient between flow and return line 53 ; 54 is held constant or can be.

It is only one -. B. correspondingly larger-sized - tempering 63 , z. B. cold source 63 , z. B. a controllable refrigeration unit 63 , for the temperature control of several, possibly all, connected printing towers 01 required (see, for example, below to 16 ). The tempering device 63 can be designed as a commercial temperature control unit with a thermostat which provides a fluid at the output of a (possibly via a control device) vorgebaren target temperature. Due to the possibility of a larger dimensioning, it may also be of particular advantage, the tempering 63 form as a two cooling processes combining apparatus in which, in addition to, for example, the working medium under ambient temperature cooling chiller, z. B. compression refrigeration, also an optional operable and / or optionally switchable free cooler is provided. The tempering device 63 may in an advantageous embodiment also include a heating means to - for example, in cold seasons - the temperature of the fluid z. B. before starting if necessary, to be able to heat to the desired temperature. The parent circuit 59 has a pump 64 on, through which the fluid in the parent circuit 59 is driven. Nevertheless, preferably each connected primary circuit 43 ( "Primary circuit branch" 43 ) own pump 56 on. This can be ensured that the respective primary circuit branches 43 despite possibly different effective line resistances can be operated in each case with a suitable pressure. In addition to this own pump 56 indicates the primary circuit branch 43 z. B. also not shown pressure equalization vessel.

Between last withdrawal point 61 ( 81 ) and first return point 62 ( 82 ) of the higher temperature control circuit 59 or supply cycle 77 is z. B. a bypass with a preferably adjustable valve 79 , z. B. a pressure control valve 79 or a pressure reducer 79 , Provided to set a desired pressure gradient between flow and return and possibly with a slight decrease by the primary circuit branches 43 a minimum of fluid circulation in the parent circuit 59 to ensure (see eg 15 and 16 ).

The pump 56 of the primary circuit branch 43 is preferably with respect to a differential pressure between flow and return, in particular between a measuring point not shown in the flow line 53 after the pump 56 and before the first sampling point 57 and not shown a measuring point in the return line 54 after the last return 58 in the primary circuit 43 or primary circuit branch 43 and in front of the return station 62 in the parent circuit 59 operated in a regulated manner or designed so operable together with said measuring points. Preferably, it is or a control module associated with it to a desired differential pressure, z. B. a lying between 1 and 3 bar differential pressure, in particular a differential pressure of 1.8 to 2.3 bar, set. Change the line resistance, z. B. by changing extraction flows into the primary circuit loops 44 or by changing the setting of the valve 66 , but still the appropriate differential pressure level between flow and return is maintained. This ensures that the initial conditions for the primary circuit-side flow through the heat exchangers do not fluctuate significantly and thus a better calculable control process can take place.

As stated above, the form cylinder stand 12 ; 14 of the printing tower 01 each individually or in pairs per double printing unit 17 with independently temperature-controlled temperature control circuits 37 in thermal interaction. As also mentioned, is also per printing unit 08 at least one roller 19 ; 21 , Advantageously, at least one distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 , but preferably two or both distribution cylinders 19 ; 21 every printing unit 08 tempered trained and are available with a temperature control 37 ; 38 in thermal interaction. To the tempering, in particular to the dynamics with required temperature changes as well as to the accuracy in the observance of a temperature (larger temperature window), the roller (s) 19 ; 21 ; 22 ; 23 ; 24 / 29 ; 26 ; 27 ; 28 Here are significantly lower requirements, as in the temperature of the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 , Using the above for the independent temperability of forme cylinders 12 ; 14 for tempering the roll (s) 19 ; 21 ; 22 ; 23 ; 24 / 29 ; 26 ; 27 ; 28 as well as the exemplary embodiment of possible temperature control circuits 37 ( 38 ), advantageous embodiments are set out below:

In 6 . 8th . 10 . 12 and 14 be the two form cylinder 12 ; 14 every double printing unit 17 through a common temperature control circuit 37 (regardless of the other double printing units 17 ) tempered. Basically, the form cylinder 12 ; 14 Although also be passed through in series, but is preferably a parallel, particularly advantageous with respect. The sections as symmetrical as possible or with respect to line resistance similar, fluid management in two parallel Temperierzweigen 37.1 ; 37.2 (also generally in the text as 37.y designated) provided. Inside the secondary circuit 37 circulates the tempering fluid, funded by the pump 47 , The respective temperature control circuit 37 (Secondary circuit 37 ) is via a sampling point 57 and a return point 58 with the primary circuit (branch) 43 connected. Is a desired temperature T _set (or maximum temperature) (preferably at least the Formzylindertemperierung a sensor S03 or S03 ') is exceeded at one og, not shown here S0x sensor, then via the valve 51 colder fluid from the primary circuit (branch) 43 in the secondary circuit 37 ( 38 ) and the appropriate amount on the return point 58 in the primary circuit (branch) 43 discharged. Per pair of form cylinders 12 ; 14 here is one with the primary circuit (branch) 43 connected temperature control circuit 37 ( 38 ) intended.

In a technically less complex solution of the 6 are also the tempering rollers 19 ; 21 with the two form cylinder 12 ; 14 tempering secondary circuit 37 in thermal interaction. In an advantageous embodiment, in each of the tempering branches 37.y each downstream of the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 two of the same printing unit 08 associated distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 be traversed in parallel or serially. The temperature of the distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 moves here in a wide temperature window, depending on the for the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 set temperature and the heating of the fluid in this. In this case, it may be advantageous in terms of the temperature gradient to be set if, in the embodiment of the inking unit 09 to 4 first of all the form cylinder-near ( 19 ), and then the form cylinder remoter ( 21 ) Flow cylinder is flowed through. In case of execution after 3 For example, the first in the circumferential direction distribution cylinder 19 be traversed first. In principle, however, if necessary, the reverse order may be provided. Preferably, however, it is provided that the two branches of the secondary circuit 37 again with regard to line resistances similar routes. For the four double printing units 17 is the temperature control in 6 Representative only at the upper double printing unit 17 shown.

In the execution according to 8th is contrary to 6 for the tempering of the four rolls 19 ; 21 every double printing unit 17 one from the temperature control circuit 37 different temperature control circuit 38 , in particular secondary circuit 38 , intended. On top of this is the top of the temperature control circuit 37 to be applied in the same way, but with the following reference numerals: heat exchanger 67 , Pump 68 and valve 69 instead of heat exchanger 46 , Pump 47 and valve 51 , For one or more measuring points or one or more sensors S0x in this secondary circuit 38 Tempering control circuit applies to the temperature control 37 called. Possibly. However, the requirement is considerably lower, so that only a single sensor S0x in the secondary circuit 38 or on one of the rollers 19 ; 21 can be sufficient. The rollers 19 ; 21 ( 86 ) tempering secondary circuits 38 are in the execution after 8th also over the heat exchanger 67 thermally to a primary loop 44 coupled, which via sampling points 57 and return points 58 Fluidic with the primary circuit (branch) 43 connected is.

In contrast to 8th stand in the execution 10 the rolls to be tempered 19 ; 21 two stacked double printing units 17 with a same secondary circuit 38 , So only a corresponding control circuit or a same tempered fluid, in thermal interaction. Although other flow patterns may be chosen here, but preferably as symmetrical as possible fluid guide z. B. via appropriately trained parallel Temperierzweige 38.1 ; 38.2 ; 38.11 ; 38.12 ; 38.21 ; 38.22 provide, here z. B. the two rolls 19 ; 21 of the same printing unit 08 again in each case in series, for example in the above sequence. The not fully shown tempering of the two lower double printing units 17 is executed in the same way. In the 11 presented secondary circuits 38 become here also from the secondary circuits 37 feeding primary circuit (branch) 43 fed.

In the execution after 12 is for the rolls to be tempered 19 ; 21 of the printing tower 01 only one control loop or a temperature control circuit 37 intended. Again, in an advantageous embodiment, a largely symmetrical fluid guide with each branch of two serially traversed rollers 19 ; 21 provided in approximately equal lengths. The in 12 set secondary circuit 38 is here from the secondary circuits 37 feeding primary circuit (branch) 43 fed. In this case, preferably (not shown) is a removal point for the temperature control 38 either before the first or after the last sampling point 57 the form cylinder 12 ; 14 tempering temperature control circuits 37 provided.

14 shows an embodiment of the temperature of the printing tower 01 , wherein the temperature of the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 as described individually (not shown in FIG 14 ) or in pairs through secondary circuits 37 takes place, which in turn by at least one primary circuit (branch) 43 be supplied. In an advantageous embodiment according to 14 Will the rollers 19 ; 21 temperature-regulating secondary circuit 38 (or at several, the secondary circuits 38 ) not from the one or the secondary circuits 37 the form cylinder 12 ; 14 tempering primary circuit (branch) 37 but is (or will be) either through its own, in 14 dashed in the temperature control circuit 38 indicated or by its own the tempering circuit 38 in a separate primary circuit upstream and only by reference numeral "45" indicated temperature control 45 , z. As cold source, in particular a controllable refrigeration unit, tempered or from a higher-level tempering 59 fed as needed. In 14 this is schematic for only one tempering circuit 38 for all friction cylinders to be tempered 19 ; 21 of the printing tower 01 shown, with this temperature control 38 several parallel temperature control branches 38.1 ; 38.2 ; 38.3 ; 38.4 (eg 38.x ), in which parallel one or more flow in series through the distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 are tempered. The temperature control circuit 38 points the pump 68 on which the fluid over a -. B. vertically in the printing tower 01 or on an end face of the printing tower 01 running - supply line 71 , via exit points 74 through the or more Temperierzweige 38.x , Return points 76 , one - z. B. vertically in the printing tower 01 or on an end face of the printing tower 01 running - return line 72 and a bypass line 73 circulated. In not shown, closed design is in the temperature control 38 , especially between last return point 76 and first sampling point 74 provided an above-mentioned source of cold. Instead of a separate source of cold is the temperature control 38 preferably however (in the top of the temperature control circuit 37 described way z. B. via a valve 69 ) and / or a sampling point 81 with a pressure tower 01 assigned (see eg 15 , Execution b) and c) parent circuit 77 , z. B. Supply circuit 77 , or with a multiple printing towers 01 assigned higher-level tempering circuit 59 connected. The temperature control circuit 38 is then over the heat exchanger 67 with the parent circuit 59 ( 77 ) over z. B. the controllable valve 69 coupled. The rolling 19 ; 21 (or distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 ) tempering temperature control 38 (Secondary circuit 38 ) is then again a pump 68 , the secondary circuit side of the heat exchanger 67 , a valve 69 assigned. The temperature control circuit 38 associated control circuit includes next to the valve 69 as an actuating element 69 also at least one sensor S0x, by which an actual temperature T _{ist of} the fluid and / or the roller (s) 19 ; 21 determined in the above manner and in the control and / or regulating device 49 is compared with a setpoint temperature T _soll (preferably a permissible temperature range). It can be used in the temperature control circuit 38 if necessary, only one sensor S0x, z. B. in the flow line 71 or the return line 72 , be provided. It can also each in the flow line 71 and the return line 72 one sensor S02 each; S04 be provided which z. B. in the manner of the above-mentioned virtual sensor S03 'work together. Preferably, however, each of the tempering branches 38.1 ; 38.2 ; 38.3 ; 38.4 (At least Temperierzweige first order or main branches) associated with a sensor S0x for determining a respective actual temperature, wherein z. B. in the control and / or regulating device 49 the actual temperatures of all tempering branches 38.1 ; 38.2 ; 38.3 ; 38.4 be checked for affiliation to the permissible temperature range. If one of the temperatures falls above the upper limit of the range, colder fluid will flow over the valve in the manner described above 69 metered or not shown cold source (stronger) activated. Serving as a fluid source higher-level tempering 59 ( 77 ) may preferably be the same as the primary circuit 43 the mold cylinder tempering supplies. In an advantageous development, for the case of n (n ∈ N), temperature control branches 38.1 ; 38.2 ; 38.3 ; 38.4 ( 38.x ) in at least (n-1) tempering branches 38.1 ; 38.2 ; 38.3 ; 38.4 with regard to the flow resistance and / or cross-section adjustable valves 78 provided by which a basic setting of the relative flow rates (to compensate, if necessary, due to differences in line resistances ruling differences) in the branches feasible and can be changed if necessary. These valves 78 can manually or even -. B. from a control room or console computer forth - be remotely operated adjustable. However, said adjustability of the relative flow rates is not comparable to a cooling regulated by the flow of tempering fluid, but merely supplements a temperature control controlled by fluid exchange (at essentially constant volumetric flow) in the case of parallel branches of the same temperature control circuit 37 ; 38 Should, if necessary, by controlling the fluid temperature of several or all printing units 08 comprehensive temperature control circuit 38 the condition for the affiliation of all branches to the allowable temperature range can not be met, it is by changing the cross section at one or more of the valves 78 a "redistribution" of the fluid flow, and thus an adjustment of the temperature of the common Temperierkreislauf 38 connected rollers 19 ; 21 possible. These are the adjustable relative flows (eg via valves 78 ), in 14 illustrated embodiment is on all versions of temperature control circuits 37 ; 38 Apply the above-described embodiments and to transmit analogously, in which a temperature control 37 ; 38 or a branch of a temperature control circuit 37 ; 38 in parallel branches, z. B. in Temperierzweige 38.x or in exemplarily in 6 named temperature control branches 37.1 ; 37.1 ( 37.y ) Splits. This also applies, for example, to in 6 and 8th to 13 explained routing in several form cylinder 12 ; 14 or more rolls 19 ; 21 parallel supplying temperature control circuits 37 ; 38 , Here too, at least (n-1) of n branches of a same temperature control circuit can be used 37 ; 38 a valve which can be adjusted with regard to the cross section or flow 78 exhibit. The same applies to the division of the parent primary circuit 59 in the primary circulation branches 43 where also in the case of n branches at least in (n - 1) branched circuits a corresponding valve may be provided.

The example of the according 14 only a temperature control circuit 38 for all distribution cylinders 19 ; 21 of the printing tower 01 having principle of the "Form cylinder primary circuit (-zweig)" independent Walzentemperierung is also advantageous to the versions individually thermoformable forme cylinder 12 ; 14 and / or to transfer to versions in which z. B. for the temperature of the distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 of the printing tower 01 two or more such, from the primary circuit 43 independent temperature control circuits 38 are provided. Deviating from the example of 14 can also be formed in other ways, serially traversed groups of Reibzylindern 19 ; 21 be formed or it can instead of the serial pass as shown also more parallel, z. B. only one or two rollers 19 ; 21 tempering temperature control branches 38.1 ; 38.2 ; 38.3 ; 38.4 or less tempering branches 38.1 ; 38.2 ; 38.3 ; 38.4 , but with more Temperierunterzweigen 38.11 ; 38.12 ; 38.21 ; 38.22 (Reference "Temperierunterzweige" by way of example in 10 and 14 ) and / or further broken down branches of Temperierunterzweigen 38.11 ; 38.12 ; 38.21 ; 38.22 be provided. Such Temperierunterzweige 38.11 ; 38.12 ; 38.21 ; 38.22 and possibly further subdivided Temperierunterzweige should, however, unless explicitly excluded, equally under the name "Temperierzweige" be taken.

As in 15 and 16 illustrated by way of example, Temperierzweige 38.1 ; 38.2 ; 38.3 ; 38.4 also from a flow distributor 83 go off and in a return collector 84 lead.

In 15 and 16 By way of example, three variants for printing tower temperature control (labeled a, b and c) are shown side by side and in the case of 16 on a common parent circuit 59 connected. Although in the case of several, z. B. two or three in a section juxtaposed printing towers 01 preferably a same variant is used, could possibly also simultaneously different of the variants for different printing towers 01 the section are used.

For the mentioned versions of the 6 to 14 , in particular the 6 . 8th . 10 . 12 and 14 , the two rollers can 19 ; 21 per printing unit 08 in principle, if necessary, also be flowed through in parallel instead of serially.

In the remarks of the 6 . 8th . 10 . 12 and 14 are the two form cylinder 12 ; 14 and / or the roller pairs of the two printing units 08 of the same double printing unit 17 each to common secondary circuits 37 ; 38 tethered. At the same time, with little effort, it is basically possible to optimally adapt the different colors to the currently used substrate (paper).

As mentioned above, however, it may be advantageous in terms of fine tuning between perfecting side, if the two form cylinder 12 ; 14 of the double printing unit 17 and / or the rollers 19 ; 21 the two printing units 08 of the double printing unit 17 by mutually different tempering circuits 37 ; 38 are tempered.

In 7 . 9 . 11 and 13 be the two form cylinder 12 ; 14 every double printing unit 17 in each case by independently temperature-controlled temperature control circuits 37 (regardless of the other printing units 08 ) tempered. Inside each secondary circuit 37 circulates the tempering fluid, funded by the pump 47 , The respective temperature control circuit 37 (Secondary circuit 37 ) is with a primary circuit (branch) 43 via a withdrawal point 57 and a return point 58 connected. It can in a non-illustrated embodiment, in principle, a common, substantially vertically extending primary circuit (branch) 43 for the left and right printing units 08 (Form cylinder 12 ; 14 or rollers 19 ; 21 ) tempering temperature control circuits 37 ; 38 be provided. For reasons of clarity, however, here is an embodiment with two primary circuits 43 which is possibly advantageous in terms of divisibility and / or fluid paths, wherein two z. B. substantially vertically extending primary circuits 43 in the printing tower 01 are provided, which in each case the form cylinder 12 ; 14 a web page or a printing tower half (a separable printing tower 01 ) tempering secondary circuits 37 provided. The temperature control by means of temperature control circuits 37 ; 38 or control loops, however, takes place in the same way. Is a desired temperature T _set (or maximum temperature or range) for a destination on a not shown sensor S0x (see above) is exceeded, is via the valve 51 colder fluid from the primary circuit (branch) 43 in the secondary circuit 37 ( 38 ) and the appropriate amount on the return point 58 in the primary circuit (branch) 43 discharged. Per shaped cylinders 12 ; 14 here is one with the primary circuit (branch) 43 or one of the primary circuit (branches) 43 connected temperature control circuit 37 intended.

In a technically less complex solution of the 7 are also the tempering rollers 19 ; 21 with the same printing unit 08 associated form cylinder 12 ; 14 tempering secondary circuit 37 in thermal interaction. In an advantageous embodiment, in each case downstream of the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 two of the same printing unit 08 associated distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 be flowed through serially. As mentioned above, it can be advantageous in terms of the temperature gradient to be set, if in the execution of the inking unit 09 to 4 first of all the form cylinder-near ( 19 ), and then the form cylinder remoter ( 21 ) Flow cylinder is flowed through. In case of execution after 3 For example, the second distribution cylinder in the circumferential direction 19 be traversed first. Basically, however, if necessary, the reverse order may be provided here. For the four double printing units 17 is the temperature control in 7 Representative only at the upper double printing unit 17 shown.

In the execution according to 9 is contrary to 7 for the temperature control of the two rolls 19 ; 21 every printing unit 08 one from the temperature control circuit 37 different temperature control circuit 38 , in particular secondary circuit 38 , intended. In principle, however, can also in accordance with the rolling tempering of not shown here variant 8th the four rollers 19 ; 21 every double printing unit 17 through a common secondary circuit 38 to be tempered. On the rollers 19 ; 21 tempering temperature control circuit 38 is again the top of the temperature control circuit 37 set forth in the same way, but using the reference numerals for the heat exchanger 67 , the pump 68 and the valve 69 apply. The rollers 19 ; 21 individual printing units 08 tempering secondary circuits 38 are in the execution after 9 also via exit points 57 and return points 58 with the primary circuit (branch) 43 or if necessary with the primary circuit (branches) 43 connected.

In contrast to 9 stand in the execution 11 the rolls to be tempered 19 ; 21 , in particular Reibzylinder 19 ; 21 , two printing units arranged one above the other 08 with a same secondary circuit 38 , So only a corresponding control loop, in thermal interaction. Although other flow patterns may be chosen here, but preferably a symmetrical fluid guide is provided as possible, in which case z. B. the two rolls 19 ; 21 of the same printing unit 08 again in each case in series, for example in the above sequence. The not fully shown tempering of the two lower double printing units 17 is executed in the same way.

In the execution after 13 is for the rolls to be tempered 19 ; 21 , in particular Reibzylinder 19 ; 21 , the left and right printing units 08 of the printing tower 01 in each case only one control loop or a temperature control circuit 38 intended. Again, in an advantageous embodiment, a substantially symmetrical fluid guide, ie for each two serially perfused rolls 19 ; 21 containing branches provided a roughly equal length of track.

For reasons of clarity, the figurative depiction of the 14 Parallel training with individually tempered cylinders 12 ; 14 and / or two Temperierkreiszweigen 43 waived. Based on the execution of the roller temperature control 14 with its own cooling source or its own connection to a higher-level temperature control circuit 59 ( 77 ) this variant of the 14 also on individually heatable form cylinder 12 ; 14 and / or to the embodiment with two primary circuit branches 43 according to z. B. the Formzylindertemperierung 13 be transmitted in the same way. Here, a primary circuit branch 43 or it can be like in 13 illustrated two primary circuit branches 43 (For example, each web page one) for the supply of the form cylinder 12 ; 14 tempering temperature control circuits 37 be provided. To this one primary circuit branch 43 or to these two primary circuit branches 43 can then as in 14 one the rollers 19 ; 21 of the printing tower 01 , if necessary via temperature control branches 38.x , tempering secondary circuit 38 , or z. B. two such rolls 19 ; 21 of the printing tower 01 , if necessary via temperature control branches 38.x , tempering secondary circuits 38 , z. B. per web page a secondary circuit 38 , be provided. In an advantageous in terms of short distances sections and / or simpler piping design z. B. depending on the rollers 19 ; 21 tempering temperature control circuit 38 and a for the supply of the form cylinder 12 ; 14 tempering temperature control circuits 37 serving primary circuit branch 43 intended.

Also for the mentioned embodiments of 7 . 9 . 11 and 13 as well as the corresponding variant of the 14 can the two roll 19 ; 21 per printing unit 08 in principle, if necessary, it should also be parallel instead of serial.

The solutions according to 6 and 7 do not require any additional control circuits or temperature control circuits for the tempering of the rolls 19 ; 21 , in particular the distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 , With a suitable design of the printing ink and / or setting of the setpoint temperature T _{soll of} the respective temperature control circuit 37 can the from the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 independent temperature control of the distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 omitted. This also generally applies to the above-mentioned preferred embodiment of the transfer cylinder 11 ; 13 without the requirement of own tempering devices.

The solutions according to 8th and 9 (or a combination of individually tempered form cylinder 12 ; 14 with "double printing system" tempering of the rolls to be tempered 19 ; 21 Although have an increased technical complexity by a total of eight, twelve or sixteen temperature control circuits 37 ; 38 or corresponding control circuits, but allow a high degree of adaptation of the color properties of the printing tower 01 present needs of each other subsequent pressure points 10 and / or paper properties.

The solutions 10 to 14 is z. B. together that rolls 19 ; 21 , in particular Reibzylinder 19 ; 21 a plurality of, at least several (preferably all) on a same side of a web 02 printing, printing units 08 a printing tower 01 through a common temperature control circuit 38 and a relevant control loop are formed jointly tempered, resulting in significant savings on Temperierkreisläufen 37 or control circuits brings with it, while the form cylinder 12 ; 14 , in particular preferably the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 all on the same side of the train 02 printing units 08 , by each independent temperature control circuits 37 can be tempered with appropriate control circuits. In the remarks of the 14 is also the the distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 relevant temperature control 38 regardless of the form cylinder 12 ; 14 relevant temperature control circuits 37 and their primary circuit branch (s) 43 by its own cooling source or its own connection to a higher-level temperature control circuit 59 temperature-controlled. As a result, for example, the possibility of a direct, individual adaptation of the desired temperature level in which the rollers 19 ; 21 relevant temperature control 38 (or in the rollers 19 ; 21 relevant temperature control circuits 38 ) allows, without a possibly fluctuating load of the temperature control circuits 37 supplying primary circuit branch 43 he follows. The less critical tempering of the rolls 19 ; 21 (Larger allowable temperature range and / or lower demand on the dynamics) is in this case of the tempering of the forme cylinder, which is to be maintained within narrower limits and / or greater demands on the dynamics 12 ; 14 separated.

The stated embodiments are also applicable to embodiments in which only one of the rollers 19 ; 21 ; 22 ; 23 ; 24 / 29 ; 26 ; 27 ; 28 , z. B. one of the distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 , and / or a color reservoir 25 , or z. B. in addition to one or both Reibzylindern 19 ; 21 the film roller 27 and / or the color reservoir 25 , or z. B. in addition to one or both Reibzylindern 19 ; 21 the ductor roller 28 in z. B. several of the described temperature control circuits 38 is involved. This could then z. B. the film roller 27 and / or the ductor roller 28 and / or the color reservoir 25 in addition to one or two friction cylinders 19 ; 21 in the relevant temperature control circuit 38 be integrated serially / and or in parallel.

The film rollers 27 and / or ductor rollers 28 and / or color supplies 25 However, can also be tempered by not shown own tempering, which z. B. in the nature of the above-mentioned temperature control circuits 38 can be trained. The to the tempering circuits 38 explained embodiments are to be transferred to versions of another such Temperierkreises where ever printing unit 08 by the further tempering at least two of the components of film roll 27 and / or fountain roller 28 and / or color reservoir 25 (eg serially) are to be tempered. Should only the film roller 27 or the ductor roller 28 or the inking unit 25 tempered, so are the for the temperature control circuits 38 to be transferred variants in such a way that in the branch or sub-branch concerned no second components serially, but only a component, namely the film roll 27 or the ductor roller 28 or the reservoir 25 , is tempered. Should the film roller 27 or the ductor roller 28 be tempered, so this is according to the distribution cylinder 19 ; 21 Executed tempered trained. Should the color reservoir 25 be tempered, this can be done for example by contact of the line of the temperature control itself with the color or by contact of this line with a color receiving housing.

In principle, the heat exchangers 46 ( 67 ) and pumps 47 ( 68 ) of the tempering device 39 a printing tower 01 contrary to the representations also central, z. B. summarized in a so-called. Temperature control, in a lower area or even in a plane below the printing tower 01 be arranged, in which case, however, the conduction paths of the secondary circuits 37 ; 38 extend accordingly (and sometimes have a considerably different length). As can be seen in the figures, it is advantageous (for example with regard to reaction time and / or symmetrical conditions) for at least the form cylinder 12 ; 14 tempering temperature control circuits 37 (possibly also for the rollers 19 . 21 ) at least each of the heat exchanger 46 ( 67 ) and pump 47 ( 68 ) of the temperature control circuits 37 , z. B. as part of an assembly 89 (see, for example, in FIG 17 ), at different heights of the printing tower 01 , in particular one above the other, so z. B. each close to the component to be tempered component 12 ; 14 ( 19 ; 21 ) arranged. Preferably, these assemblies are located approximately at the height of the printing units 08 indicating the components to be tempered by this assembly 12 ; 14 ( 19 ; 21 ) contain. This can also - especially for the designs 8th . 10 , possibly. 12 and possibly 13 accordingly for the rollers 19 ; 21 tempering secondary circuits 38 be applied. For the execution according to 12 . 13 and particularly 14 and the related modification, however, may be advantageous to the heat exchanger (s) 67 for the rollers 19 ; 21 tempering secondary circuit 38 at the bottom of the printing tower 01 provided.

The heat exchangers 46 ( 67 ) and pumps 47 ( 68 ), z. B. each as part of an assembly 89 , are preferably the front side of the printing tower 01 (ie on a machine side of the printing cylinder 11 ; 12 ; 13 ; 14 z. B. on the side frame or a frame part connected to the latter, in particular within a frontal, z. As supply lines and possibly ancillary units, space 88 , z. B. as an end-side cabinet 88 (eg, supply and / or switchgear and containing mechanical) referred arranged. This arrangement of the assemblies, which is integrated in or on the side frame, enables the arrangement of each secondary circuit close to the printing mechanism 43 , in particular the pressure-near heat exchange, which causes a considerably shorter reaction time. In the case of centrally divisible towers 01 If necessary, the front-side space accommodating the assemblies may optionally be designed as a space that is open towards the center or as two spaces separated at least partially towards the center. The for execution as an assembly 89 or for arrangement in the frontal space 88 This is exemplary in connection with the Kurzfarbwerke 09 ' in embodiment 18 shown, but the according to 2 to 14 apply accordingly.

Not only but especially in the case of a separable trained printing tower 01 in which z. B. for the left printing units 08 a left primary circulation branch 43 and for the right-hand printing units 08 a right primary circuit branch 43 each with the corresponding flow or return lines 53 ; 54 is provided, can on the conduction path between the flow and return lines 53 ; 54 the moving part of a separable printing tower 01 and the respective removal or return point 61 ; 62 from the parent circuit 59 flexible pipe sections, z. B. pieces of tubing may be provided.

In one development, it may be beneficial if a particular printing tower 01 assigned aggregates of the primary circuit 43 - z. B. the pump (s) 56 and possibly provided pressure equalization vessels - and / or one at least the rollers 19 ; 21 a pressure tower half together supplying secondary circuit 38 - z. B. its pump 68 and a possibly also provided pressure equalization vessel and / or the valve 69 - In a plane below a ground plane, ie below the main operating level, and / or in a plane below the foot of the printing tower 01 , z. B. in the example coverable recess are arranged. In the case of a table-top, so on a gallery level erected printing tower 01 , For example, the recess is also formed as below the level or step level of the operator in the foot frame or as arranged in the gallery frame recess. If such a depression or pit is advantageously designed to be coverable, then it is accessible, but not disturbing spatially for the operation of the machine from the front side. With this measure of sunk arranged aggregates the line lengths are shortened, while the frontal accessibility is guaranteed to the instrument room. For several printing towers 01 then have z. B. all printing towers 01 Such an end-side, in particular coverable depression, in which the fluid in the respective primary circuit branch 46 and / or secondary circuit 38 pump pumping 56 ( 68 ), as well as the connection points between parent primary circuit 59 and the corresponding primary circuit branch 43 (or secondary circuit 38 ) of the relevant printing tower 01 are arranged.

In particular, the secondary circuits 37 ; 28 For example, should have constant pressure. For this purpose, for example, pressure equalization tanks are provided. Also, between two circuits, in particular between at least one secondary circuit 37 ; 38 and / or at least one primary circuit 43 ; 44 and / or at least one other secondary circuit 37 ; 38 be arranged at least one pressure equalization connection. This pressure compensation connection can be designed as a compensation tube (for example with an internal cross section smaller than 10% of a tube of a circuit). This equalizing tube opens into a tube of a circuit so that, for example, the end of the compensating tube projects beyond a lower edge of the inner cross section of the tube of the circuit. Thus, less dirt get into the balance tube.

The "architecture" of the described tempering device 39 is thus effective and where necessary sufficiently responsive trained by z. B. a parent circuit 59 (Mainly predominantly horizontally between the printing towers 01 running) leads to a cooled below the ambient temperature fluid at the respective printing towers 01 each fluid from the parent circuit 59 taken and in a (substantially vertically through the or at the printing towers 01 extending) primary circuit branch 43 and possibly rollers 19 ; 21 tempering secondary circuit 38 rotates, with z. B. sampling points 57 from the primary circuit branch 43 for the secondary circuits to be tempered 37 ( 38 ) as well as their essential aggregates (eg pump 47 ( 68 ) and metering valve 51 ( 69 )) as close to the component as possible, ie in the printing tower 01 distributed at different heights, are arranged. In this case, it is preferable for the roll tempering that is less sensitive to the temperature to be provided that rolls 19 ; 21 a plurality of printing units 08 , in particular at least of printing units 08 a printing tower half or even the printing units 08 of the entire printing tower 01 , by a common control circuit or temperature control circuit 38 are tempered or tempered

As mentioned above, the secondary circuits are 37 ; 38 with their fluid paths, valves and sensors each part of individual control loops, with a control loop z. B. the component 12 ; 14 ; 19 ; 21 tempering tempering fluid, at least one the temperature of the fluid and / or preferably of the thereby to be tempered component 12 ; 14 ; 19 ; 21 monitoring sensor S0x, at least one actuator 51 ; 69 ( 52 ) and one on the actuator 51 ; 69 comprising acting control process.

The individual secondary circuits 37 ; 38 or the correlating control circuits are preferably each own control processes with respect to each measured actual temperature (s) T _ist and setpoint temperatures T _soll assigned. Under control process should generally be understood here a controller which analog, digital or as a software routine z. B. works according to a specific circuit and / or software-based control algorithm. One or more of these control processes may be in a common control and / or regulating device 49 be provided or summarized.

Each of the control processes are individually assigned or _{to be} assigned and / or specifiable setpoint temperatures T _soll , although fundamentally the same values can be assigned for several control processes. This predeterminable or predetermined, generally _intended as the target temperatures T here temperature specifications referred to already noted above be given as a specific target temperature values T _s, optionally with the definition of a tolerance T _s ± Δ, or _s .DELTA.T than temperature ranges as the temperature maximum value _Tmax, or . become. The specification of a setpoint temperature value T _s with tolerance range T _s ± Δ and the specification of a temperature range ΔT _s can be treated in the following - where no explicit distinction is made explicitly - whereby the range from said value taking into account the specified tolerances, and vice versa from the specified range a mean target temperature T _soll with symmetrical tolerance range Δ results. Unless otherwise explicitly stated below, the specification of a "setpoint temperature T _soll " is to be understood as meaning the setpoint temperature value T _s (irrespective of any additional tolerances) or the mean value, also center of gravity, of a temperature range ΔT _s .

The control processes of the forme cylinders 12 ; 14 tempering temperature control circuits 37 are preferably tolerance ranges .DELTA. Of setpoint temperature values T _S and temperature ranges .DELTA.T _s predetermined, which has a width of z. B. maximum of 3 ° C, advantageously not more than 2 ° C, in particular not more than 1 ° C. In contrast to this, the control process or the control processes of the one or more are the rolls 19 ; 21 of the inking unit 09 tempering temperature control circuits 38 either only given maximum temperature values, or preferably tolerance ranges Δ and temperature ranges .DELTA.T _s , which -. B. depending on the version above variants - a width of z. B. more than 2 ° C, advantageously more than 3 ° C, and / or a width of z. B. up to 5 ° C, advantageously even up to 7 ° C, map.

At the same time, the condition applies at the same time that in the formation of separate temperature control circuits 37 ; 38 for printing cylinder 12 ; 14 on the one hand and rolling 19 ; 21 on the other hand, the control process of the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 a printing unit 08 (individually or together with another forme cylinder) tempering tempering 37 a smaller permissible temperature range is specified or stored than the control process of the rollers 19 ; 21 of the assigned inking unit 09 (individually or together with rollers of other inking units) tempering temperature control 38 , This applies z. B. for each printing unit 08 of the printing tower 01 ,

Especially for designs of the rollers 19 ; 21 several, possibly one half or even all in the printing tower 01 arranged printing units 08 tempering temperature control circuit 38 (if necessary with formation of tempering branches (under) branches 38.x ) can thereby be ensured at low cost yet trouble-free operation. The "distance" in relation to the color path to the form cylinder 12 ; 14 and even to the pressure point 10 (ie to the substrate) out here it allows - especially when using a "good-natured" ink, ie a printing ink with rheological color properties that are not inferior in the relevant temperature range Grandient (see below) - a good compromise between process engineering effort and achievable print quality in a robust operation - especially when using newsprint. An optionally obstructing this compromise anilox roller with appropriate color flow control over exact temperature specifications is in the execution of the present newspaper printing press or the printing tower 01 not available with roller inking unit. The choice of an advantageous printing ink and / or an advantageous predetermined temperature range for the rollers 19 ; 21 tempering control loop and / or optionally an advantageous flow sequence serial to be traversed rollers 19 ; 21 can already have an advantageous temperature of the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 to meet.

An individual and close adaptation of the color property of the optimal, especially sound-free ink application to the printing form, in particular without the possibility of control by a dampening unit, as well as an anticipatory adaptation to the particular rattle-free as possible interaction of the transfer cylinder 11 ; 13 with the printing material is by the single or at least pairwise control option of the form cylinder 12 ; 14 given. When setting an advantageous temperature on the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 (see below) can be based on its own temperature control of the transfer cylinder 11 ; 13 be waived. The temperature control circuits 37 the form cylinder 12 ; 14 regulating control circuits preferably access at least one measured value of at least one sensor S02; S03; S03 ';S04; S05 back, the fluid temperature close to the component between the pump 47 and Formzylindereinritt or advantageously a temperature of the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 or its surface (sensor S03 or S03 ') detected. In an advantageous development can - to reduce overshoot - in addition, a heat exchanger 46 near temperature (eg sensor S01) and taken into account with regard to the dynamics of the control process. Although in a very simple, but with respect to the mold cylinder temperature less accurate execution, only the heat exchanger near sensor S01 could be provided. In the case of a temperature value for which the control is based, only one sensor close to the heat exchanger and / or close to the component S01; S02 can the temperature determined here - for example, in o. G i. V. m. Sensor S03 'mentioned manner according to empirically normalized or calibrated and modeled - give information about the mold cylinder temperature. In this case, the temperature specified in the control process in a variant z. B. to the temperature at the considered measuring point as the target temperature. For an advantageous case, however, that an above-mentioned empirical relationship and / or model is stored in the control process and is taken into account by the algorithm, the virtual component or jacket temperature resulting from the modeling can be used as the temperature at the destination as the "measured" temperature then processed by the control process with the target temperature for the same destination, namely on the component or component jacket. This principle is to be applied in particular also for the use of the above-mentioned virtual sensor S03 '. Here too, will then by the relevant control process, the "virtual component or jacket temperature than the actual temperature T _is at the destination" component "or" used mantle surface "and with the predetermined destination for this nominal temperature T _nom processed and evaluated.

This principle is basically to apply to all control circuits or secondary circuits mentioned above, unless the component or jacket temperature is not - as preferred - directly by a sensor S03, z. B. IR sensor, measured, but is determined indirectly via a fluid temperature via a model, but preferably a default setpoint temperature directly for the component or its lateral surface as the destination should be made.

If in the following a target or actual temperature at the component or its lateral surface is mentioned as the destination, then - unless explicitly stated otherwise - it is actually an on the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 or on the roller 19 ; 21 or in particular its lateral surface to be set and / or measurable temperature go out. For the control process, in the case of a "virtual" actual temperature T _ist (eg from S01, S02 or S03 ') to be determined via a fluid temperature, a possible deviation between actual and virtual actual temperature T _{ist is} kept negligibly small via the corresponding modeling and calibration and / or a systematic error possibly even when setting the temperature value T _soll according to z. B. as T ' _{should be} considered.

In versions, where parallel two form cylinder 12 ; 14 through a same temperature control circuit 37 tempered, can each have a forme cylinder 12 ; 14 supplying temperature control branch 37.1 ; 37.2 a sensor S02; S03; S03 '; S04 close to the component in the temperature control branch 37.1 ; 37.2 (eg sensor S02 or S04) and / or on the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 (for example, sensor S03; S03 '(S02; S04)), in which case the temperatures of the two temperature control branches 37.1 ; 37.2 or form cylinder 12 ; 14 to _be monitored in parallel for affiliation to the allowed setpoint temperature T setpoint (range or tolerance) and, if required, the temperature of the fluid through the control process via the actuator 51 to be changed. Should be a difference between the two branches once so large that the requirement for both forme cylinders 12 ; 14 can not be fulfilled at the same time, so can above og adjustable valves 78 a relative flow rate, and thus within certain limits, a tempering, adjusted or readjusted.

In the case of executions, being through the one or two forme cylinder 12 ; 14 tempering temperature control circuit 37 ( 37.1 ; 37.2 ) also one or more rollers 19 ; 21 can be tempered or, in addition to one or more of the above sensors S01; S02; S03; S03 'or measured values to be provided a further sensor, which, for. B. the sensor S02 according to the fluid path before entering the (first) roller 19 ; 21 or z. B. the sensor S03 or S03 'according to the temperature of the roller surface is arranged descriptive. Instead, or advantageously, in addition to this, a sensor may be between leaving the (last) roller 19 ; 21 and before reaching the heat exchanger 46 be provided. This can, on the one hand, provide control of the power absorbed and / or an upper estimate of a roller temperature and / or, on the other hand, provide early information on possibly colder fluid to be supplied for the control process.

In the case of one or more rollers only 19 ; 21 tempering temperature control circuits 38 ( 38.1 ; 38.2 etc.) can in the temperature control 38 associated control process instead of a temperature setpoint T _s or a temperature range .DELTA.T be a temperature _maximum value T _max be or be. In this case, a simple design can be that in the temperature control 38 ( 38.1 ; 38.2 etc.) upstream or downstream of one or more passed, in the case of serial passage z. B. upstream of each first or downstream of each last traversed roller 19 ; 21 , a sensor S04 is provided. This actual temperature T _is can - for example, according to empirically normalized (see above) - provide information about the roller temperature. In a safer version, however, is the temperature of the roller 19 ; 21 or roller surface detecting sensor S03; S03 '- z. B. per roller 19 ; 21 or at least on a roller 19 ; 21 per pair of rollers - provide.

For the preferred case, that rolls 19 ; 21 several printing units 08 , especially rollers 19 ; 21 several double printing units 17 for example via several parallel temperature control branches 38.x through a same temperature control circuit 38 can be tempered or are, the control of the respective temperature control 38 be carried out in such a way that measured values of comparable measuring points different Temperierzweige 38.x be monitored to ensure that none of the measured values exceeds the predetermined temperature maximum value T _max (maximum value definition) or none of the measured values falls down or out of the permitted temperature range ΔT _s or tolerance range T _s ± Δ (setpoint definition). Should a difference between the branches be so great that the requirement can not be met simultaneously for all affected measuring locations (so that, for example, if the temperature has been raised, the previously too low value is raised to the permitted range, another one, however, is then z. B. runs out of the permitted range above), so can above adjustable valves 78 a relative flow rate, and thus within certain limits, a tempering, adjusted or readjusted.

In one of the possibilities of the above for the tempering 39 In the embodiments described with particular advantage, at least two control processes of temperature control circuits can be used 37 which are two forme cylinders 12 ; 14 at least two on the same side of the train 02 printing units 08 of the printing tower 01 temper, different from each other, in particular to z.

The two form cylinder 12 ; 14 at least two on the same side of the train 02 printing units 08 of the printing tower 01 are or will be in an operating situation z. B. traversed with fluid whose respective control process underlying target temperature T _is z. B. differs by at least 0.5 ° C. In this case, it is preferable that the pressure unit, which is located downstream in the web running direction, is arranged 08 reference temperature T _is the higher. The rolls to be tempered 19 ; 21 , in particular Reibzylinder 19 ; 21 , these two printing works 08 Here, either advantageous by a same temperature control 38 , or possibly also by two temperature control circuits 38 , z. B. on the basis of the same values for the target temperature T _soll or the temperature _maximum value T _max , tempered or be, so that these rollers 19 ; 21 the two printing units 08 in both cases to a same target temperature T _soll or a same temperature _{maximum value} T _max are regulated or become. The latter is z. B. advantageous if the two halves of the pressure tower 01 arranged double printing units 17 through different temperature control circuits 38 are tempered or become. In principle, however, two different temperature control circuits can be used 38 of the printing tower 01 different values for the setpoint temperature T _soll or the maximum temperature value T _{max can be} specified.

In one - especially i. V. m. Newsprint and / or the formation of the inking unit 09 as a roller inking unit 09 and / or the formation of the printing unit as a printing tower 01 and or the training of the printing unit 08 as a dry offset printing unit 08 - Advantageous design or operation are or will be at least two of the form cylinder 12 ; 14 , Preferably all form cylinder 12 ; 14 of the printing tower 01 tempered such that it at least in the production plant on its outer surface, an actual temperature T _is in the range from 22 ° C to 29 ° C, advantageously in the range up to 28 ° C, preferably in the range of 24 ° C to 26 ° C, having 23 ° C , Depending on the production speed, in particular as a function of the production speed, this actual temperature T _ist can vary within the specified range during operation, in particular by appropriate consideration in one of the control and / or regulating devices 49 implemented or one of the above, the control and / or regulating device 49 upstream Sollwertbildenden process be varied specifically. The temperature ranges given here for actually present or on the forme cylinder mantle to be maintained in operation above actual temperatures _T refer z. B. to values, as they are, for example, by commercially available infrared measurement systems (IR measurement systems) when used properly and appropriate calibration - possibly only temporarily arranged for review - measurable. Here, a value must be used for the specified values, which is determined by measurement on the component 12 ; 14 ; 19 ; 21 (here form cylinder 12 ; 14 ) viewed in the axial direction at a location lying within the printing width, preferably by at least 50 mm from the outer edge of the outermost printing form, is located. This preferably applies to an average value which results from at least two measurement points lying within the pressure width and spaced apart axially from one another. The above is also for the measurement of below mentioned actual jacket temperature to rolls 19 ; 21 , in particular Reibzylindern 19 ; 21 to apply.

The control processes of all the forme cylinders 12 ; 14 of the printing tower 01 tempering secondary circuits 37 is or is for example a corresponding setpoint temperature T _set (T _'to) specified which in the case of an application of the real sensor S03 or sufficiently well modeled and calibrated virtual sensor S03' z.

Preferably, however, the setpoint temperature T _{soll should} not fall out of the above-mentioned advantageous temperature range even taking into account the range or the tolerance. The information relating to the sensor S03 'is also to be transferred to versions to which a temperature measurement at a measuring point remote from the component (eg only sensor S01 and / or S05 from FIG 5 ) underlying. If, instead of the sensor S03 or S03 ', a sensor S02 used in the flow between the pump and the component is used for presetting and setting, then the above-mentioned values minus a difference value in the temperature, for example by 3 ° C., apply to the values to be preset. This also applies to the examples of forme cylinders set out below 12 ; 14 and rolling 19 ; 21 , This difference value or the setpoint value for the control loop having the sensor S02 can also be determined or be described in the modeling as described above.

Regarding the inking unit 09 are or will be in one - especially i. V. m. Newsprint and / or the formation of the inking unit 09 as a roller inking unit 09 and / or the formation of the printing unit as a printing tower 01 and / or the training of the printing unit 08 as a dry offset printing unit 08 - Advantageous design or operation at least two of the above-mentioned heatable rollers 19 ; 21 , Advantageously, at least the four heatable rollers 19 ; 21 a double printing unit 17 , preferably all temperable rollers 19 ; 21 , in particular Reibzylinder 19 ; 21 of the printing tower 01 tempered such that it at least in the production plant on its outer surface, an actual temperature T _is in the range from 25 ° C to 33 ° C, advantageously in the range of 26 ° C to 31 ° C, preferably in the range of 27 ° C to 30 ° C, exhibit. This actual current temperature T _is in operation can, if necessary, depending on the level of the production speed, in particular depending on the production rate will vary within the stated range, in particular through appropriate consideration in the control and / or regulating device 49 implemented or one of the above, the control and / or regulating device 49 upstream Sollwertbildenden process be varied specifically. The temperature ranges given here for the actual rollers 19 ; 21 or roller shell present in operation or og to be observed actual temperatures T _is z. B. to values, as they are measurable or to measure, for example, in the above manner.

The control process or, if applicable, the control processes of the rolls 19 ; 21 of the printing tower 01 tempering secondary circuit 38 or the rollers 19 ; 21 of the printing tower 01 tempering secondary circuits 38 or is, for example, (in each case), a corresponding desired temperature T _set (T _'to) specified which in the case of an application of the real the outer surface temperature detecting sensor S03 or sufficiently well modeled and calibrated virtual sensor S03' z. B. in the range of 25 ° C to 33 ° C, advantageously in the range of 26 ° C to 31 ° C, preferably in the range of 27 ° C to 30 ° C, is located. When using the virtual sensor S03 'with possibly systematic deviations between actual and supplied by the model measured value, the above-mentioned temperature range for the setpoint temperature T _{soll is} to be lowered or raised accordingly. The target temperature value T _s representing the setpoint temperature T _soll is preferably a tolerance range in z. B. the above-mentioned size or a value forming this value as a mean value in z. B. assign or assign the above-mentioned width. Preferably, however, should the target temperature T _soll for the roller 19 ; 21 or whose lateral surface does not fall out of the advantageous temperature range even taking into account the range or the tolerance. The information relating to the sensor S03 'is also to be transferred to versions to which a temperature measurement at a measuring point remote from the component (eg only sensor S01 and / or S05 from FIG 5 ) underlying.

Likewise, the above for form cylinder or Walzentemperierung mutatis mutandis to be transferred to executions, a target temperature and an actual temperature of a remote component destination are processed and the reference to the assumed actual jacket temperature already by experts or appropriate model "backwards" in the specification of the destination to be set Target temperature T _{is supposed to be} processed. In this case, by the underlying control process on the maintenance of the temperature of the component 12 ; 14 ; 19 ; 21 different destination to the relevant target temperature T _{should be} regulated, it being assumed that the z. B. actual required above actual temperature T _is on the component shell (eg., Form cylinder jacket or roll shell) adjusted.

The tempering device 39 must in the case of as roller inking 09 trained inking unit 09 Overall, not necessarily meet the requirements for accuracy and / or dynamics, as required, for example, in a screen roller temperature control for color flow control. This can be reflected on the one hand in the z. B. above areas or tolerances, in particular for Walzentemperierung, but also for the Druckwerkzylindertemperierung can be chosen considerably larger. This can be a constant rules to a minimum. Additionally or instead, pumps can also be used 47 ; 68 and / or actuators 51 ; 69 (Valves) be dimensioned smaller in terms of their capacity and / or their adjustment range, since usually no sudden changes and thus no excessive circulation quantities and / or withdrawals are required. In addition or instead, in a modification to the above-mentioned embodiment, a temperature level of the primary circuit 43 ( 59 ) circulating fluid are higher than, for example, required for screen roller tempering. The temperature of the flow in the primary circuit 43 ; 59 flowing fluid can here, for example, at a temperature of 12 to 20 ° C, in particular even more than 15 ° to 20 ° C inclusive. However, this is advantageous enough circulation and flow rates. Overall, a dynamic for at least the temperature of the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 sufficient, which in the interaction of flow rates, valve limitation, travel distances of the fluid and the temperature levels z. B. in the temperature range between 20 ° C and 30 ° C, a possible cooling rate of z. B. at least 0.5 ° C / min, advantageously 1 ° C / min guaranteed. The cooling rate (eg measurable by means of one, possibly temporarily attached, to the middle region or preferably to the entry-distant end of the effective bale length of the component 12 ; 14 ; 19 ; 21 directed sensor S03), however, does not necessarily have to exceed 2 ° C / min. The same applies to the or the rollers 19 ; 21 tempering temperature control circuits 38 or temperature control circuit. However, these may possibly be even more sluggish.

The above and below are basically printed units 01 to apply, as in 17 and 18 shown as short inking units 09 ' trained inking 09 ' with a, in particular tempered, as an anilox roller 86 trained roller 86 exhibit. As already explained above, preferably anilox rolls should be used 86 of printed on a same side of a web printing units 08 by independent temperature control circuits 38 be tempered. In addition, in the case of tempered anilox rolls 86 preferably the accuracy requirements for the temperature of the affected temperature control circuits 37 to raise.

This is also advantageous for temperature control of the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 set out in principle apply to embodiments in which instead or in addition to the transfer cylinder 11 ; 13 be tempered. In this respect, each printing unit 04 at least one printing cylinder 11 ; 12 ; 13 ; 14 , preferably at least one forme cylinder 12 ; 14 , tempered in a specified manner.

In one - especially i. V. m. Newsprint and / or the formation of the inking unit 09 , in particular as a roller inking unit 09 , and / or the formation of the printing unit as a printing tower 01 and / or the above training and / or operation of the temperature control 39 - advantageous Execution or mode of operation, the color reservoir 25 at least one of the printing units 08 , especially the color supplies 25 all printing works 08 the web of a newspaper, especially of newsprint 02 passed printing tower 01 a printing ink of special properties. This bears in particular i. V. m. with by the aforementioned embodiments for the formation of the printing tower 01 and / or the printing and inking units 08 ; 09 and / or the tempering device 39 created opportunities the special requirements for the waterless printing on uncoated or slightly coated paper, especially newsprint, in a printing towers 01 having machine bill.

As competing requirements are here on the one hand, the possible "rupffree" color transfer to the (newspaper) paper, the most possible "tone-free" transfer to the printing form and a -. B. despite particularly high printing speeds in newspaper printing - bring good good schlierenfreier and / or splash-free color flow with good trituration in line. In an advantageous embodiment, therefore, during operation of the printing press or at least one printing tower 01 , in particular in a retracted path 02 from newsprint (see above), a printing ink in the paint reservoir 25 at least one, especially all by train 02 cooperating printing units 08 of the printing tower 01 , Provided, which has advantageously set forth embodiment. It can (if necessary) the inks of the individual printing units 08 z. Although indeed vary in their property, but are still preferably all in the specified advantageous embodiments:
The values given here for the viscosity are understood to be on a Physica, z. B. Physica MC 100 (with recommended (minimum) sample quantity, plate-plate principle, measuring plate MP 30 (25 mm), gap distance 0.15 mm, shear rate D = 10 1 / s, measuring interval 5 sec., Ie 12 measurements / min, software US 200), the company Anton Paar to be measured viscosities, preferably under the conditions mentioned. A measuring point for a color in a specific parameter set is effected here, for example, by averaging the values of the 12 consecutive measurements within the measuring minute, wherein the first measured value is recorded after 5 seconds without additional warm-up time for the color. (Temperature with ± 0.5 ° C error range for viscosity values).

The values given here for tack Z are determined with the Inkomat 200 (Fa. Prüfbau) at the corresponding recommended parameters as "Inko" (with recommended sample quantity, here eg 1250 mm ³ , without pre-tempering of the color, trituration 30 sec at 50 m / min, then 2 min measuring time at speed V to be tested and temperature, read off at the end of the 2 min value as result). The determination can be in addition to the specified parameters z. B. after the Standard ISO 12634: 1996 (E) respectively.

In a first embodiment, the ink (ink A) - z. B. in the color reservoir 25 all printing works 08 of the printing tower 01 At 27 ° (corresponding, for example, to the above-mentioned advantageous temperature range of the rolls 19 ; 21 ) has a viscosity of at least 50 Pa · s, in particular at least 60 Pa · s. Are several, z. B. a number n, in particular n = 4, colors of a same side of the web to be printed 02 assigned, so is for at least two consecutive printing units 08 the viscosity of the ink of the downstream printing unit 08 higher than the upstream ones. Preferably - z. B. with regard to a temperature control of the printing units 08 - The viscosities of n a same side of the web 02 assigned printing inks by a maximum of 20% of the above minimum value, z. B. by a maximum of 10 or 12 Pa · s, from the mean over the n colors.

At this measurement temperature of 27 ° (± 1 ° C) and a speed V of 10 m / s (± 0.03 ° m / s), which is within the range of production speeds, the tack Z of the advantageous printing ink (color A in 17 ) of the first embodiment at most at 10.0 Inko (tack value measured in Inko, see above), advantageously at most 9.5 tack, z. B. between 6.0 and 9.5 Inko, preferably between 7.0 and 9.5 Inko. This applies at least to an average of the measured values from the n (eg n = 4) on a same side of a same track 02 to be applied in the color reservoirs 25 located printing inks, but advantageous for all n (4) inks considered individually. In the event that the tack Z of the color at this temperature T of about 27 ° C in the range of speed V of 6 to 10 m / s has a significant dependence on the speed V, z. B. that a determined by the two measurement points at 6 m / s and 10 m / s mean value for the gradient (.DELTA.Z / .DELTA.V) z. B. 0.06 Inko / (m / s) or greater, then this ink should at a speed V of 6 m / s at the same time have a significant dependence of the speed Z of the temperature T, z. B. determined by the two measurement points at 20 ° C and 27 ° C average for the gradient (.DELTA.Z / .DELTA.T) z. Eg -0.06 inko / ° C or even steeper (ie a larger negative number). As a result, an effective control option is ensured in the event of significant speed-dependent tack. Basically preferable, however, is a printing ink which has a gradient of less than 0.06 Inko / (m / s), in particular less than 0.03 Inko / (m / s) in the above-mentioned speed range. In this case, the temperature dependence may be reduced and the gradient between -0.06 and 0.00 Inko / ° C, in particular between -0.03 and 0.00 Inko / ° C lie.

In the first embodiment, the printing ink at the same time at about 24 ° C, ie at 24 ° ± 1 ° C, (corresponding, for example, to the above advantageous temperature range of the forme cylinder 12 ; 14 ) has a viscosity of at least 80 Pa · s, in particular at least 110 Pa · s. Are several, z. B. a number n, in particular n = 4, colors of a same side of the web to be printed 02 assigned, so is also here for at least two consecutive printing units 08 the viscosity of the ink of the downstream printing unit 08 z. B. higher than the upstream. Preferably - z. B. with regard to a temperature control of the printing units 08 - The viscosities of n a same side of the web 02 allocated inks here by a maximum of 20% of the above minimum value, z. B. by a maximum of 16 or 22 Pa · s, from the mean over the n colors.

At this measurement temperature of 24 ° C (± 1 ° C) and a speed V of 10 m / s (± 0.03 ° m / s), which is within the range of production speeds, the tack Z should be advantageous in the paint reservoirs 25 arranged printing ink of the first embodiment at most at 10.5 Inko (tack value measured in Inko, see above), advantageously at most 10.0 tack, z. B. between 6.50 to 10.0, preferably between 8.0 and 10.0 Inko, are. This applies at least to an average of the measured values from the n (eg n = 4) on a same side of a same track 02 to be applied in the color reservoirs 25 located printing inks, but advantageous for all n (4) inks considered individually. In the event that the tack Z of the color at this temperature of about 24 ° C in the range of speed V of 6 to 10 m / s has a significant dependence on the speed V, z. B. that a determined by the two measurement points at 6 m / s and 10 m / s average for the gradient (.DELTA.Z / .DELTA.V) here z. B. 0.04 inco / (m / s) or greater, then this ink should at a speed V of 6 m / s at the same time have a significant dependence of the speed Z of the temperature T, z. B. as above by the two measurement points at 20 ° C and 27 ° C determined average value for the gradient (.DELTA.Z / .DELTA.T) z. B. -0.06 Inko / ° C or even steeper. Basically, however, an ink with little or no speed dependency in the tack Z as mentioned above is preferable here as well.

In an advantageous variant, the tack Z varies at z. At least two, preferably in all of n consecutively on a same side of the web 02 arranged printing units 08 specifically at 24 ° C. and a speed V of 10 m / s in such a way that the tack Z decreases with the parameters mentioned from color to color (eg black, yellow, magenta or cyan) in each case. However, this is preferably for the respective above conditions within a maximum of z. B. Inko, but advantageously within the above specified for the respective conditions maximum limits or intervals. This embodiment is advantageous, for example, with a tempering device 39 , where at least the rollers 19 ; 21 two of four successively arranged on a web page printing units 08 in pairs by a temperature control circuit 38 , or all four by a common tempering circuit 38 are tempered. The mentioned grading in the speed then applies z. B. for the on a common tempering 38 connected printing units 08 ,

In a second embodiment of the color reservoirs 25 of the printing tower 01 arranged or used inks (ink B), this has a tendency to even higher viscosity with further reduced speed Z on. Thus, the viscosity here at a temperature of 27 ° C to z. B. at least 80 Pa · s, in particular at least 90 Pa · s. At 24 ° C it is z. At least 120 Pa · s, especially at least 130 Pa · s. To the values of n printing units 08 etc., the above applies mutatis mutandis.

The speed Z is lower in the second embodiment of the ink (ink B) and has z. B. at 27 ° C a tackiness Z of at most 7.5 Inko, in particular at most 6.5 Inko, z. B. 3.5 to 7.5 Inko, in particular 3.5 to 6.5 Inko, on. At 24 ° C, it then z. B. a tackiness Z of at most 8.5 Inko, in particular at most 8 Inko, z. B. 4.0 to 8.0 Inko, especially 4, 0 to 7.5 Inko, on. The above to possibly present gradient in terms of speed and / or temperature dependence applies mutatis mutandis accordingly. Here, however, would be z. B. at a temperature of 27 ° C in the event that a by the two measurement points at 6 m / s and 10 m / s calculated average value for the gradient (.DELTA.Z / .DELTA.V) z. B. 0.04 Inko / (m / s) or greater, an ink advantageous whose tackiness Z at a speed of 6 m / s has a significant dependence on the temperature T, z. B. determined by the two measurement points at 20 ° C and 27 ° C average for the gradient (.DELTA.Z / .DELTA.T) z. B. -0.04 Inko / ° C or even steeper (ie a larger negative number in terms of amount) is. In principle, however, an ink which has a gradient of less than 0.04 Inko / (m / s), in particular less than 0.02 Inko / (m / s), is also preferable here in the above-mentioned speed range. In this case, the temperature dependence may be reduced and the gradient between -0.04 and 0.00 Inko / ° C, in particular between -0.02 and 0.00 Inko / ° C lie. At the measuring point at 24 ° C applies in the case that the tack Z of the color at this temperature of about 24 ° C in the range of speed V from 6 to 10 m / s a has significant dependence on speed, e.g. B. that a determined by the two measurement points at 6 m / s and 10 m / s average for the gradient (.DELTA.Z / .DELTA.V) here z. B. 0.03 Inko / (m / s) or greater, then this ink should at a speed V of 6 m / s at the same time have a significant dependence of the speed Z of the temperature T, z. B. as above by the two measurement points at 20 ° C and 27 ° C determined average value for the gradient (.DELTA.Z / .DELTA.T) z. B. - 0.04 Inko / ° C or even steeper. Basically, however, an ink with little or no speed dependency in the tack Z as mentioned above is preferable here as well. The execution of the printing unit 08 with the color B contains z. B. advantages in terms of a further improved Rupfverhaltens, but the handling is ensured in the inking unit train by increased viscosity.

In a third embodiment, not shown, of the at least one color reservoir 25 , especially in the color reservoirs 25 of the printing tower 01 arranged or used ink (ink C), this combines the advantages of the ink B and the ink A in such a compromise that z. B. the viscosity here at a temperature of 27 ° C to z. B. at least 70 Pa · s, in particular at least 80 Pa · s. At 24 ° C, it amounts to z. B. to at least 100 Pa · s, in particular to at least 110 Pa · s. To the values of n printing units 08 etc., the above applies to printing ink A mutatis mutandis.

The tack is in the third embodiment of the ink at 27 ° C z. At not more than 9.0 Inko, in particular at most 8.5 Inko, e.g. B. at 4.5 to 9.0 Inko, in particular 5.0 to 8.5 Inko. At 24 ° C, it then z. B. a tackiness Z of at most 9.5 Inko, in particular at most 9.0 Inko, z. B. 5.0 to 9.5 Inko, in particular 5.5 to 9.0 Inko on. To the values of n printing units 08 the above applies to ink A and the gradients mentioned above for ink B applies accordingly.

However, the viscosity in all three embodiments for 24 ° C. is preferably at most 280 Pa.s, in particular at most 230 Pa.s and for 27 ° C. at most 180 Pa.s, in particular at most 130 Pa.s.

The printing machine is preferably designed such that in one embodiment at least one printing tower itself 01 in a mode of operation (coldset) with an above-mentioned train 02 composed of newsprint and in a second mode of operation (heatset) with a web 02 ' from higher quality substrate, eg. B. paper, hereinafter referred to, for example, as a semi-commercial paper, acts together (see, for example, the in 1 from the left printing tower 01 coming train 02 ; 02 ' ). In both modes have the color reserves 25 of the printing tower 01 each a same ink described above. In heatset mode is or is the web 02 ' after printing through an active dryer 05 guided, before - if necessary, cut in partial webs longitudinally - one or more formers of the funnel structure 04 is supplied or is. In coldset mode is or is the web 02 after printing, however, without an activated dryer to pass through the funnel construction 04 fed. This can be done without a dryer on the guide path, or with a deactivated dryer 05 done on the way. In coldset and heatset mode, one and the same - z. B. described in detail above - printing tower 01 once newsprint and the other times from the newspaper z. B. on the roughness and / or the surface porosity distinctive Semocommercialpapier (see below) printed by dry offset, wherein in both modes of the same type printing ink in the color reservoirs 25 is used. That is, it does not have a different color supply for the two modes of printing tower 01 or a complete cleaning when changing are provided or be. The temperature of the printing tower 01 can differ in that, for example, in heatset mode for the temperature of the printing cylinder 12 ; 14 , in particular form cylinder 12 ; 14 regulating processes another, z. B. compared to the above for newspaper printing examples by at least 1 ° C lower target temperature T _is set or will be.

In addition or instead, the printing press may also preferably be designed such that in one embodiment at least one of a plurality of printing towers 01 in a mode of operation (coldset) with an above-mentioned train 02 from newsprint and at the same time another printing tower 01 in a second mode of operation (heatset) with a web 02 ' from higher quality substrate, eg. B. paper, hereinafter referred to as, for example, semicommercialpapier acts together or is operated (see, eg. 1 ). In both towers 01 Show the color supplies 25 of the respective printing tower 01 z.
