Description

The invention relates to a method for the relative change in position of at least one transport means of at least one feed system of a sheet processing machine and a sheet processing machine according to the preamble of claim 1 or according to the preamble of claim 14.

In the manufacture of packaging, sheet or sheet-like materials are used. In several processing steps, sheets are, for example, printed, embossed, grooved, perforated, punched, cut, stapled, glued and, for example, folded into packaging. For optimal use of the area of an arc, several identical or different copies, z. B. a poster, a folding box or packaging, printed on a common sheet and then punched. These copies are referred to as utility.

A sheet processing machine can include various processing steps such as printing, cutting, embossing, creasing, punching, perforating, gluing and / or stapling. Such sheet processing machines often also have inspection devices. Usually, sheets are processed and cut to size in processing machines with shaped punching and cutting devices.

Such a processing machine is designed, for example, as a punching, cutting, perforating, embossing and / or creasing machine. When such a processing machine is referred to below as a punching and / or punching machine, a cutting, perforating, embossing and / or creasing machine is also meant in particular.

In the case of form-related systems, in addition to rotary punches, there are also flat punches, in particular flat-bed punches. In these, several sheets are processed one after the other by a cyclically repeating movement. The sheets are preferably moved largely horizontally through the processing machine with a transport system, preferably a chain gripper system. In addition to a punching unit, such a machine usually also has other units such. B. a sheet feed unit, a sheet delivery unit, a stripping unit, a sheet insert unit, a blanking unit and a remnant delivery unit. The sheet feeder unit is preferably designed for transferring sheets to the transport system. In addition, sheets are aligned, for example in the sheet feeder unit.

The US 7 603 198 B2 describes a method for positioning thin and flat objects in a machine. An object to be transported is transferred from a contact element to a means of transport, a control element taking into account a deviation of the means of transport from its normal movement during the transfer of the object to be transported and controlling the movement of the contact element transferring the object according to this deviation.

The invention is based on the object of creating a method for the relative change in position of at least one transport means of at least one feed system of a sheet processing machine and a sheet processing machine.

The object is achieved according to the invention by the features of claim 1 and the features of claim 14. The dependent claims show advantageous developments and / or embodiments of the solution found.

A method for the relative change in position of at least one transport means of at least one feed system of a sheet processing machine is preferred. The at least one transport means transports sheets from an alignment position to a transfer position. The sheet processing machine comprises at least one of the at least one feed system in a transport direction of Arch downstream transport system with at least one downstream transport means. The position of the at least one downstream transport means at the transfer position is determined and compared with a reference position, with at least one correction value being determined from the comparison of the position of the at least one downstream transport means with its reference position. At the transfer position, the respective sheet is transferred from the at least one transport means of the feed system to the at least one downstream transport means. A position of the respective sheet is recorded in the alignment position. During the transport from the alignment position to the transfer position, the respective sheet is at least partially aligned at least with respect to its position by the at least one feed system. In particular, the alignment of the respective sheet is superimposed at least with regard to its position by at least one movement corresponding to the correction value. The at least one feed system comprises at least one actuator, by means of which the respective sheet is aligned and / or can be aligned.

A sheet processing machine is preferred which comprises at least one system unit with at least one feed system with at least one transport means. In addition, the sheet processing machine comprises at least one transport system downstream of the at least one feed system in a transport direction of sheets with at least one downstream transport means. The at least one transport means of the at least one feed system is designed to transfer sheets to the at least one downstream transport means of the downstream transport system in a transfer position. In addition, the sheet processing machine comprises at least one control system, the at least one control system being coupled to at least the at least one feed system. The at least one control system is designed to store at least one correction value and / or at least a comparison of the position of the at least one downstream transport means with its reference position at the transfer position. In addition, the at least one control system is designed to control and / or regulate at least one alignment of the respective sheet at least with respect to its position during its transfer from the at least one transport means to the at least one downstream transport means. The at least one control system is designed to control and / or regulate the at least one alignment of the respective sheet with the at least one stored correction value and / or the at least one stored comparison of the position of the at least one downstream transport means with its reference position at the transfer position. In addition, the at least one feed system comprises at least one actuator that aligns each sheet.

The advantages that can be achieved with the invention are in particular that an exact transfer of the sheet to the downstream transport means and an adaptation of the positioning of the relevant sheet to a possible deviation of the positioning of the downstream transport means from its reference position is made possible. Advantageously, the effect of errors, which were generated, for example, by the positioning of the at least one downstream transport means taking over the sheet in question, on the sheet to be processed and / or a respective benefit to be generated can be reduced and / or compensated for. This advantageously increases the accuracy of the at least one processing of a sheet by the sheet processing machine. In particular, the accuracy of a punching result, in particular generated by at least one shaping device, can advantageously be increased. Any deviation of the punching from an ideal punching line is minimized. In addition, the time that is required to start up the sheet processing machine can advantageously be minimized. The reason for this is in particular the omission and / or minimization of manual alignment of the respective downstream transport means with respect to its reference position. The economy of the sheet processing machine is increased in an advantageous manner. Advantageously, downstream transport means, which are outside their tolerance, preferably with regard to the positioning, can also be used and / or used further. In particular, it is not necessary to replace them. In addition, it is advantageously possible to relax the requirements for precision, in particular for the exact positioning of the respective downstream transport means with respect to its reference position, and / or to allow further tolerances. This is advantageously compensated for by the alignment by means of the at least one feed system.

Further advantages can be seen from the description below.
