Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for correcting the coloring of printing presses during the printing process with a color density measuring device, a device for comparing the actual color density values supplied by the color density measuring device with predetermined color density target values, at least one computer for displaying a color density deviation from the target / actual comparison, devices for metering the ink supply to the printing plate, consisting of ink metering elements with associated ink actuators and feedback devices as well as displays for the actual position values of the ink actuators and a positioning device that can be selected by the operator for tracking the ink actuators.
  • DE-AS 2 728 738 describes a device for checking and regulating the coloring of printing presses, in which the color control is carried out fully automatically by means of a composite system of microcomputers and the person is deliberately excluded as delaying and - since in his judgment subjective - as faulty part of the control loop becomes.
  • the valuable specialist knowledge and the appropriated experience of the printer are completely lost to the printing process, since there is no longer any possibility for the printer to intervene in the color control cycle to correct the quality. Even if an incorrect color density measurement due to failure or contamination of the densitometer z.
  • a control during the adjustment of the ink zone actuators is not available to the operator of the printing press, so that the subsequent signaling of sources of error causes a completely unnecessary time delay in color optimization with waste incurred despite automatic control and adversely affects the color quality of the printed product. Nevertheless, the presence of the operator can still not be dispensed with, since he has to monitor the supposedly automatic regulation of the coloring and react to error or alarm signals.
  • EP-A 70 09 It is also known from EP-A 70 09 to display manipulated variables in a coarse and fine display in a rotary printing press or on a control panel of such a machine.
  • the rough display serves to display the color profile
  • the fine representation of the same color profile is achieved by lighting up further light-emitting diodes and displays the position of the respective actuators with high resolution. Since this display only serves to display manipulated variables, a direct target / actual comparison, i.e. a comparison between the manipulated variables and the specified target variables cannot be carried out.
  • DE-OS 2 727 426 describes a device for controlling the color guidance on rotary printing presses, in which the color density of a printed sheet is measured on a measuring table and a color density deviation is displayed on a so-called tendency display based on target values.
  • the trend indicator is only able to make a qualitative statement about a deviation in the color density, i.e. As the name tendency indicator suggests, only too much or too little color density can be displayed.
  • the positions of the individual zonal actuators for the amount of color to be applied are displayed by means of rows of LEDs. This means that only measured values and position values are displayed optically in this document.
  • a printer From the displayed measured values for the color density on the basis of the tendency display, a printer must carry out corrective interventions in the zonal coloring and change the amount of color individually or as a whole by means of the input keyboard. It is up to the experience or knowledge of the printer how large he must choose the required correction in order to achieve the target color density as quickly as possible. Since the deviations in the color density are displayed in the color density values by means of the trend display, a check as to whether the adjustment or adjustment of the ink zone actuators to the desired extent has been carried out in accordance with the given control command can only be determined again after the next color density measurement of a printing sheet removed from the printing press, which means that minor waste can not be completely ruled out.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a device that intentionally involves the printer in the process of coloring and give him concrete reference values on the absolute travel of the Displays ink zone actuators without having to forego the advantages of automatic coloring, and which on the one hand monitors the color density measured values as a supplement to the automatic density measured value acquisition and on the other hand also immediately checks the specified color position actuators during the adjustment of the color zone actuators, i.e. the entire monitoring of the execution of the control commands not only in a quantitative but also in a qualitative manner.
  • the color metering elements are additionally assigned guide indicators for displaying the absolute travel of all ink actuators of a selected printing unit, both in size and in the direction for adjusting these ink actuators on the basis of the color density deviations to predetermined position setpoints, and that with the guide indicators ,
  • the positioning device which can be selected by the operator, is coupled individually or at least one printing unit for tracking the ink actuators.
  • Such a device guarantees the fastest possible color optimization of the printed product with a minimum of waste, since the manipulated variables have already been converted into absolute travel of the ink actuators and are displayed precisely before they are updated.
  • the printer does not have to do without the advantages of automatic color control, he always has the opportunity to bring his experience into the printing process.
  • the displays of the actual position values of the ink zone metering elements and / or the guide displays of the manipulated variables of all ink zone actuators can optionally be switched to color density trend displays, the same display means being provided for all three displays are.
  • the guide displays are additionally designed to reproduce the actuating movements of the color actuators. Only through the direct visual representation of the actuating movements is there direct monitoring and absolute control already during the tracking of the color actuators regarding uncompleted or incomplete execution of actuating commands.
  • the values of the target positions of the ink zone actuators are transformed to a common reference line in the guide displays and the actual positions of the ink zone actuators can be represented in the form of a tracking profile by means of the leading lighting elements as position deviations from the values of the target positions of the reference line.
  • the color density measuring device be equipped with a device for releasing measured values, for releasing and forwarding both the color density measurement data after their checking and acceptance by the operator and predetermined color density target values to the positioning device.
  • a device for releasing measured values for releasing and forwarding both the color density measurement data after their checking and acceptance by the operator and predetermined color density target values to the positioning device.
  • a device In order to consciously exclude individual or several ink zone actuators in individual or several printing groups from a tracking and to carry them out separately - if necessary, taking into account locally occurring errors in the color quality that are not always detectable due to a color density measurement that is spatially limited to a print control strip - a device is optional Locking and releasing of ink zones is provided, by means of which any ink zone actuators, one or more printing units in each case, can be deliberately excluded from the tracking control or the automatic tracking system and released again for this, the manual tracking by means of the remote control being retained.
  • the printer has the freedom of choice between a tracking control for one-time tracking of the ink zone actuators, an automatic tracking device for continuous, automatic tracking of the inking zone actuators or a remote control for manual tracking of individual inking zone actuators, so that he thereby has the advantages of can combine fully automatic control with a manual control enriched by human experience.
