Abstract

Die Vielfalt der zu erledigenden Druckaufträge erfordert eine immer umfangreichere Ausstattung der Druckmaschinen mit unterschiedlichen Zusatzaggregaten. Gleichzeitig bringt aber die Unregelmäßigkeit des Wiederkehrens gleichartiger Druckaufträge mit sich, daß die einzelnen Zusatzaggregate selten voll ausgelastet sind. Damit steht dem Wunsch nach größerer Produktionsvielfalt die Notwendigkeit des Findens rentabler Kompromißlösungen entgegen. The variety of print jobs to be done requires one ever more extensive equipment of the printing machines with different additional units. But at the same time brings the irregularity of recurrence of the same kind Print jobs with the individual auxiliary units are seldom fully utilized. This is in line with the wish greater production diversity the need to find profitable compromise solutions.

Die erfindungsgemäße Druckmaschinenanlage besteht aus mehreren sowohl unabhängig voneinander als auch gemeinsam betreibbaren Druckmaschinen (1, 11), die einzelne Druckwerke (2 bis 5, 12 bis 15) und Aggregate aufweisen. Dabei ist ein einer ersten Druckmaschine (1) räumlich zugeordnetes weiteres Aggregat (6; 20 bis 24) einer zweiten, dieses weitere Aggregat (6; 20 bis 24) nicht aufweisenden Druckmaschine (11) funktionell zuordenbar. Es sind Mittel (47, 48) zum bahnlaufgerechten Zuführen einer Bedruckstoffbahn (46) von der zweiten Druckmaschine (11) zum funktionell zugeordneten weiteren Aggregat (6; 20 bis 24) der ersten Druckmaschine (1) vorgesehen und ein Antriebsmotor (42; 69) des funktionell zugeordneten weiteren Aggregats (6; 20 bis 24) ist mittels einer elektrischen Synchronisationseinrichtung (10) direkt oder indirekt mit der zweiten Druckmaschine (11) synchronisierbar. The printing press system according to the invention consists of several both independently and jointly operable Printing machines (1, 11), the individual Printing units (2 to 5, 12 to 15) and aggregates exhibit. One of the first printing presses (1) is spatial assigned additional unit (6; 20 to 24) a second, this further Functional unit (6; 20 to 24) not having printing machine (11) assignable. There are means (47, 48) for feeding in line with the web a printing material web (46) from the second printing machine (11) to functionally assigned further aggregate (6; 20 to 24) of the first Printing machine (1) provided and a Drive motor (42; 69) of the functional assigned further aggregate (6; 20 to 24) is by means of an electrical Synchronization device (10) directly or indirectly with the second printing machine (11) can be synchronized.

Die Erfindung ist auf alle Druckmaschinenanlagen mit aggregatweise gliederbaren Druckmaschinen anwendbar. The invention applies to all printing press systems Printing machines that can be divided into aggregates can be used.
