Definitions

  • the invention lies in the field of printing technology and relates to a method and an arrangement according to the preamble of patent claims 1 and 19, respectively.
  • each of the subsequent tracks must be able to absorb the high conveying capacity of the main conveyor track.
  • the individual subsequent lanes must therefore be designed for an equally high capacity, although this would only be required for a short time, or additional buffers must be used.
  • very high outputs ie processing 80,000 or more copies per hour
  • conventional systems with serial conveying which solve capacity problems with subsequent lanes, come up against fundamental problems, since physical processing limits are reached.
  • the invention creates a displaceable or usable flexibility in the overall system instead of using buffers, the capacity of which, by definition, is poorly used. This creates a very large processing capacity with relatively little mechanical effort, which can be easily adapted to fluctuating performance.
  • rotary presses today have very high outputs, so that the conveyance of the printed products must also have high outputs immediately at the outlet of the rotary press in order to intercept this output. It is also possible that higher processing capacities are only required in later work steps, for example because several material flows from several investors or from one warehouse or buffer are to be brought together. Furthermore, it may be necessary to maintain the required capacity for a particular work step that is slow.
  • the method according to the invention and the device can accordingly be used at one or more arbitrary points in an overall system or else over the entire processing path from the rotary press to the freight forwarder in order to achieve these goals.
  • the invention uses the idea that the further processing of the printed products should take place in parallel, that is to say in other words the serial principle of conventional systems is abandoned, but the information inherent in the serial conveying and processing should nevertheless be retained in the parallel concept, for which reason it is referred to as quasi-parallel becomes. From this point of view, the funding cycle (synchronization) must be considered in particular.
  • the innovative conveying and processing concept thus enables integration into an existing system with serial conveying while maintaining the synchronization of processing and conveying and enables conversion of the quasi-parallel conveying back into serial transport at any time.
  • the invention aims at parallel processing in the sense that not only parallel, functionally (in terms of time and material) but independent conveyor lines are provided, but that functionally parallel processing of the printed products is achieved.
  • the printed products are processed and promoted in functional clusters .
  • a print product cluster is to be understood here to mean a group of at least two individual print products which are processed in parallel in at least a partial route or a partial process.
  • a cluster is to be understood as a "grouping" with a functional relationship, in the sense of a family. The mutual arrangement of the printed products of a cluster can vary and the individual printed product within this cluster can have a certain freedom.
  • Functionally parallel processing occurs when the print products of a cluster are processed simultaneously, for example within the same cycle, with the print products of a cluster either being subjected to identical work steps or the work steps at least having a mutual relationship.
  • the printed products of a cluster have a defined mutual arrangement, ie they are in a mutually spatially defined position. Since a print product cluster forms a logical group, the clusters can be easily merged with other clusters at any time, recombined for serial promotion or put together within a cluster.
  • the formation of clusters can also be understood as the organization of the printed products in functional groups. It is essential that the arrangement of the printed products within a cluster enables the processing of the individual printed products in a simple manner. For this purpose, the printed products are spaced or separated from one another in such a way that they are accessible in all areas (ie on all edges and side surfaces) as far as possible.
  • the invention thus differs fundamentally from conventional printing-shop funding principles, which, as already mentioned, at best divide a main conveyor section into two or more parallel follow-up tracks, but in which the functionally simultaneous processing of a cluster is not taken into account.
  • serial conveyance from the rotation for example as a shingled stream
  • the division of this main conveying section is downgraded, that is to say in other words, this division is reversible only with greater mechanical (and financial) effort.
  • the subsequent tracks are functionally independent or decoupled from one another, so that merging these tracks into a serial, uniform stream is only possible by re-converting them into a uniform mutual arrangement with a uniform phase, etc.
  • the idea of the invention is based on a conversion of the printed products conventionally supplied in serial form, for example as a scale stream, into a cluster stream. In principle, this conversion can take place at any point in an overall system. At the same time, the invention also makes it possible to convert the cluster stream into a conventional funding process at any point, even if it is only for a single work process.
  • the procedural possibilities claimed in the claims show the corresponding arrangement options according to the invention.
  • the individual arrangements can be designed using conventional means or with conveying and processing devices that are particularly suitable for cluster funding.
  • Such a cluster stream 7 is shown schematically in FIG.
  • the printed products for the clusters are supplied by a feeder 1, not shown.
  • a feeder 1 for example, one or more clamp conveyors, several feeders or any other conveying devices for printed products can be provided as the feed.
  • Printed products are removed from this feeder 1 simultaneously or successively, for example with a clamp gripper, and a first printed product cluster 2 is formed.
  • the printed products 4 of a cluster must be arranged in such a way that each individual printed product is accessible for subsequent processing. It is obvious that the mutual spatial arrangement can vary greatly and must be tailored to the desired work processes. In the example shown, four printed products are arranged next to one another in a plane and aligned parallel to one another.
  • the printed products thus combined in a cluster basically remain in this mutual arrangement throughout the entire processing path, ie from the work station 6A to 6H, in many cases even up to the shipping company 6J.
  • Each cluster 2 is subjected to various work steps on processing path 6A-6H.
  • the printed products can be removed from the cluster at short notice, for example for a specific processing step.
  • it is necessary that such printed products are integrated into the corresponding cluster immediately after this process so that the functional togetherness within the cluster is not destroyed.
  • the printed products 4 'of a cluster 2' are successively removed from the arrangement of the cluster 2 'and processed in the station 6E.
  • the conveyor area 16e immediately after the work station 6E are the printed products 4 'again in their functional arrangement within the cluster.
  • end product is to be understood in the following printed products as they exist after the method according to the invention has been carried out, ie at the exit of an arrangement according to the invention, a forwarding state generally being reached at this exit.
  • starting product is to be understood to mean all printed products as they are fed to an arrangement according to the invention, in order then to be converted into end products.
  • Various-sized starting products can be used to carry out the method according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 shows an example of a process sequence according to the invention, clarifying the principle of the invention.
  • Starting products are fed from a feeder 1 in conventional, serial conveying. At least part of the supplied product stream is converted into a cluster stream in a conversion device 31. In many cases, all starting products are converted into a cluster stream.
  • This cluster stream is now subjected to various work steps 11 and then the processed end products are stored or temporarily stored, packaged, forwarded, etc.
  • the flexibility of the method is evident in the further possibilities, some of which are indicated in the figure by additional paths. For example, it is possible to apply certain work steps 12 to the as yet unconverted, serially promoted product stream.
  • Coupling of clusters or of individual printed products occurs when these are brought together and the size of the cluster increases in the sense that the number of functional units in this cluster increases.
  • mixing occurs when a first cluster is merged with at least a second cluster and / or one or more serial print product streams, but the number of elements of the cluster does not increase but only the scope of the individual elements of the cluster increases.
  • a cluster is of course present when a cluster stream or its cluster is divided, that is to say there are at least two cluster streams, each with a smaller number of elements per cluster. Accordingly, the sharing of a cluster stream can be seen as a reverse process of coupling.
  • the individual functions do not have to be in pure form. For example, several cluster streams can be combined with simultaneous mixing / coupling.
  • a cluster can "grow" in two fundamentally different types ".
  • the number of elements can increase or the size of the individual elements can grow.
  • growth in the first sense that is to say the increase in the number of elements within the cluster, will therefore be spoken of as an increase in the order of the cluster .
  • a second order cluster contains, for example, two printed products
  • a fourth order cluster contains four printed products. None is said about the scope of the printed products or the number of their components.
  • the coupling of cluster streams can thus be understood as a transfer of, for example, two clusters into a higher-order cluster, whereas the mixing does not change the order of the clusters, but increases the scope of the individual print products contained in the cluster. In theory, it could even be operated with the term cluster or a 1st order cluster stream, which would correspond to a serial product stream. However, it is then no longer a print product cluster in the sense of the invention, since a single print product lacks the features of the cluster that are inherent in the concept, so that this expression should not be used here.
  • Figure 3 illustrates the coupling of a first cluster stream 7 '(2nd order) with a second cluster stream 7 ⁇ (3rd order) to form a main cluster stream 7 (5th order).
  • the two cluster streams 7 ', 7 ⁇ are performed one above the other.
  • Such an arrangement can be used, for example, if the printed products of the cluster stream 7 'can be processed more slowly than those of the cluster stream 7'.
  • the printed products within a cluster are identical, ie they have the same size and are each in the same processing state.
  • the information about the arrangement of the clusters in the streams 7 'and 7 ⁇ can be retained even after coupling. In general, however, the information about the coupled "super" cluster 7 will be used as the new output variable if a return transfer in the streams 7 ′, 7, corresponding cluster streams is no longer necessary or desired in the following.
  • a 4th order cluster stream with 4 different print products per cluster can be considered. This can be edited and then reduced to a serial stream with individual products.
  • the above-mentioned reduction of a cluster can, for example, take place in such a way that the components of an end product that are actually promoted and processed in such 4th order clusters are inserted into one another in a final work step.
  • cluster processing Another great advantage of the inventive idea of cluster processing is the ability to easily integrate cluster processing into a conventional overall system with serial funding and processing.
  • a major advantage over previously known measures to increase capacity or speed is that cluster processing enables clocked operation. It is important that the cluster is processed with a cycle that is linked to the system cycle.
  • the corresponding cluster clock T2 on the cluster processing line 33 ⁇ is a maximum of n2 / (2 ⁇ A1). In order to make the two cluster clocks T1 and T2 the same size in this example, the order n2 of the clusters in the area 33 ⁇ would have to be at least twice as large as n1.
  • the individual work stations 6A-6H along the lines 33 ′, 33 ⁇ must be designed accordingly. This means that these stations must have a performance corresponding to the throughput value, provided that all the print products of a cluster must be processed in each station. Since cluster processing is also aimed at slow work steps, it may be necessary to apply one work step to several print products of a cluster within one workstation. This can be done, for example, by using several identical, synchronously controlled processing devices. If, for example, on the route 33 '4th order cluster is promoted and all four printed products of a cluster are to be stapled within a cycle T 1 in the work station 6D, four stapling devices can be arranged in parallel.
  • the specific design of the workstations can vary greatly depending on the desired function. For example, if a work step in the work station 6B only requires a very short work cycle, the printed products of a cluster can also be processed by means of a device which processes the printed products in series. For this purpose, this facility is moved across the conveying direction of the clusters and processed one printed product after the other.
  • the size of a cluster is therefore preferably also selected as a function of the cycle or conveying speed T 1, T 2 desired for the cluster processing. If relatively slow processing steps for processing the printed products are to be carried out after conversion into a cluster stream, the cycle T 1, T 2 can be increased or the conveying speed of the printed product clusters can be reduced, so that the subsequent steps can be carried out within the required working cycles . It is a great advantage of the method according to the invention that the individual work steps, depending on the choice of the size of the clusters and the cluster cycle, can proceed relatively slowly. This makes it possible to use inexpensive, slow-working individual components even in very fast overall processes. In addition, interface problems that arise due to different processing speeds of the individual components are largely avoided.
  • the parameter Y is chosen to be relatively large, i.e. Y »1 (for example 5) (assuming that the work cycles of the workstations 6F-6H allow this), a relatively short cluster cycle T2 and thus a certain buffering at the conversion point 62 can be achieved. As a result, gaps in the cluster stream (empty clusters) occur during normal operation, so that this buffer option can only be used to a limited extent.
  • Buffering is realized by using a monitoring / control unit, for example a PLC or computer control unit, to form clusters of variable size after a conversion point 62, so that buffering is made possible by varying the cluster size. It goes without saying that clusters of identical order are usually formed in normal operation and the cluster size is varied only for buffering.
  • a monitoring / control unit for example a PLC or computer control unit
  • the cluster current in the example of FIG. 4 is finally reduced to a low-order cluster current.
  • partial products for example the content of a brochure
  • envelopes were fed in via the feeder 3
  • partial products and envelopes are simultaneously arranged in a cluster after the conversion point 62.
  • the reduction point 63 the partial products are inserted into the envelopes and fed to the forwarding agency 64 or other storage or conveyor systems as a lower-order cluster stream.
  • Linking the cluster clocks with the system clock allows a cluster stream to be returned to serial funding at any time deln. This makes it possible to use cluster processing for a limited area within an overall system, for example only for labor-intensive processing processes. This shows, among other things, a clear difference to conventional systems, which divide a print product flow to increase performance into several time-decoupled and thus clock-decoupled follow-on paths and thus lose flexibility in a wide range.
  • An adaptation of the system cycle and cluster cycle represents an essential element with regard to the return to serial funding with the same input parameters (cycle, phase, etc. as existed before a cluster processing route).
  • FIG. 5 schematically shows an exemplary embodiment for the promotion of a fourth-order cluster current.

  • Conveying cams 41 are arranged on the chain strands 36 at regular intervals (only two of these conveying cams 41 are designated in the figure). As can be seen from the drawing, eight such chain strands 36 are provided here to promote a cluster with four printed products each. Each individual printed product is transported in the direction of arrows B by two feed cams 41. Since the chain strands 36 are driven together, the printed products are always transported synchronously in this exemplary embodiment.
  • the printed products are preferably on conveyor plates, which can be designed in a conventional manner.
  • the conveying cams 41 ensure the parallel alignment of the printed products in the transport direction.

  • counter cams 45 are provided at the individual work stations for positioning the clusters in the transport direction.

  • the clusters are taken over, for example, by a gripper chain 50, driven by a second motor 38, with a plurality of grippers 51 and transported further in the direction of arrow D.
  • the number of chain strands 36 can be increased, for example. If only 4th order clusters are processed in normal operation, the chain strands which are then not used can be used in the sense of passive redundancy in the event of faults. A simple switchover of the active subsidies to the passive ones enables the failure of certain work equipment to be "avoided".
  • the funding for the clusters can also be configured uniformly, for example by providing a common conveyor belt, possibly provided with grippers, by means of which the printed products of the clusters are transported. This means that the material and funding required to transport the clusters can be reduced to a large extent. It is obvious that the promotion and processing of the clusters can take place in a much smaller space than with a conventional division of product flows into follow-up lanes.

  • the conveying means can be designed very differently depending on the direction of transport (for example parallel chain strands for the conveying direction F or a single gripper chain for the conveying direction F '), the conveying directions have an important meaning.
