Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for longitudinally cutting printing materials in sheet-fed and reel-fed machines with a cutting device which is designed as a circular knife, opposite which is a rotating drum which is provided with a support which completely or partially covers its drum surface and on which the printing material is subjected during the cutting process lies on.
  • the circular knife has a slightly rounded cutting edge and, while rotating at a circumferential speed corresponding to the transport speed of the printing material, is pressed at high pressure against a cutting plate or cutting tape with a hardened surface, which is stretched under the printing material on the drum Steel, pressed.
  • the substrate is cut by squeezing it apart. Due to the high pressure required for squeezing the printing material apart, the knife wears out comparatively quickly and must therefore be replaced at relatively short intervals.
  • the pressure also destroys the counter surface, i.e. the cutting plate or the cutting band, over time and makes it unusable.
  • this device also has the disadvantage that the knife tends to jump at higher speeds and can lift off when it hits the contact surface of the counter surface after passing through the gripper channel and receives a shock there.
  • a circular, sharpened knife is pressed during rotation with a side surface against a fixed second knife or a sharp edge, which is formed, for example, by a groove in the drum.
  • the substrate is sheared off as the cutting edge and the edge or the two cutting edges slide past each other.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a device of the type mentioned, which avoids the disadvantages mentioned, is quick and easy to adjust and the knife reaches a long service life.
  • the object is achieved in that the sharpened circular knife rotates at high circumferential speed against the transport direction of the printing material and that the knife cuts through the printing material into the support of the drum or protrudes into a groove in the support of the drum.
  • the device according to the invention is particularly easy to adjust because only the knife has to be adjusted to the appropriate cutting dimension of the printing material. There is no need to adapt to a second cutting edge.
  • the knife wears much less and cannot be damaged because it is not pressed against a counter surface and does not come into contact with another sharp-edged surface.
  • the knife either moves freely in an existing matching groove in the support or in a groove that has formed after cutting the cutting edge of the knife into the support made of a relatively soft material after a few revolutions below the cutting area in the support .
  • the knife then only comes into contact with the substrate to be cut and therefore has to be reground much less often.
  • the set-up time of the machine is shortened by simply and quickly setting the knife to the desired cutting dimension. This and the longer service life of the knife increase the production speed.
  • a good quality of the cut of the printing material is also achieved, since the knife rotates at a high rotational speed and counter to the transport direction, similar to a circular saw.
  • a pad that is made of a soft material such as rubber, foam, a soft plastic or similar material is particularly suitable. These materials offer little resistance to the knife, so that it can cut a groove in which it is guided after only a few turns.
  • the material of the pad is so soft on the one hand that the cutting edge cannot be worn or damaged when it comes into contact with it, but on the other hand so stable that the shoulders of the groove form a support for the printing material. This has the advantage that the support is suitable for every position of the knife and does not have to be specially adapted.
  • the support consists of a plurality of layers arranged one above the other, the layers being able to consist of the same or different material.
  • the drum cover can be designed as a support.
  • the support can also be stretched on the drum as a mat or as a band.
  • the support can be applied to a carrier layer.
  • a carrier layer preferably consists of metal. The metal layer offers protection in the event that the knife is accidentally set too low and, after cutting through the pad, penetrates into the drum cover and damages it.
  • the printing material is held on the support by means of a vacuum along its cut surfaces.
  • openings are provided in the support, which are connected to a suction device.
  • the drawing shows a cylinder 1 of an arc machine.
  • a support 2 is arranged on the cylinder 1 and is applied to a carrier layer 3.
  • the carrier layer 3 with the support 2 is clamped onto the surface of the cylinder 1 with the aid of clamping and clamping means (not shown).
  • the clamping and clamping means are provided in a channel of the cylinder 1, not shown.
  • the pad 2 consists of foam and the carrier layer 3 from a Metal, for example made of aluminum. The latter facilitates the mounting of the support 2 on the cylinder 1 and protects the surface of the cylinder 1 from accidental damage.
  • a sheet of paper 4 is stretched onto the support 2 and is to be cut lengthways in the middle.
  • the cutting device 5 shown in the drawing has a sharpened circular knife 6, which is driven by a motor, rotates at high rotational speed above the cylinder 1.
  • the circular knife 6 rotates in the same direction of rotation as the cylinder 1, so that the movement of the circular knife 6 at the interface is opposite to the transport direction of the paper sheet 4.
  • the circular knife 6 is arranged so that it projects with its cutting edge 7 through the paper sheet 4 into the support 2.
  • the circular knife 6 has cut into a groove 8 with its cutting edge 7, in which the rotating circular knife 6 can rotate freely. This protects the cutting edge 7 of the circular knife 6.
  • the groove 8 is exaggerated for clarity.
  • the support 2 extends in practice on both sides of the groove 8 up to the cutting edge 7, so that the paper sheet 4 is well guided and supported in the cutting area.
