Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for controlling a screen printing cylinder machine, wherein during the printing process a printing cylinder receiving the printing material and driven by a drive motor and a screening carriage traveling over it are moved with synchronized speed with a squeegee lowered onto the screen template.
- the invention further relates to a screen printing cylinder machine with a printing cylinder receiving the printing material and driven by a drive motor, a screen carriage traveling over it, a squeegee which can be lowered onto the screen stencil and a device for synchronizing the movement of the printing cylinder and the screen frame during the printing process, which according to the above described method works.
- the first method makes use of a so-called oscillating cylinder, which has a single toothed wheel on each end face, which is permanently in engagement with the toothed rack attached to the corresponding side of the screening carriage. After the printing process, the cylinder reverses to the initial position in which it receives the next print item, with the printing process immediately starting again.
- a disadvantage of this method is that the oscillating cylinder changes from a rotational movement into the opposite direction without a rest, so that the newly fed printing material must be grasped by the printing cylinder immediately. It happens that the print material is not placed correctly or not optimally on the printing cylinder, which affects the print quality.
- the second known method tries to avoid this disadvantage in that the synchronization between the printing cylinder and the trolley takes place during the forward and return through two gears on each end of the printing cylinder.
- the first gearwheel engages with the toothed rack arranged on the relevant side of the screening carriage during the printing process (advance).
- this toothed wheel and the toothed rack are decoupled in that the teeth are cut out by milling at a corresponding point on the toothed wheel.
- the rack can run back freely through the stopped gear.
- the return of the screening carriage is effected by a second gear, which is brought into engagement with the rack arranged on the relevant side of the screening carriage during the return. During the return, the first gear is held in place by a mechanical device.
- the first gear After returning, the first gear is rotated again and brought into engagement with the rack of the screening carriage, whereby a new printing process begins.
- the two gears are driven by a drive motor. Since the printing cylinder coupled to the first gearwheel always rotates in the same direction and stops during the return of the screening carriage, the printed matter can be applied to the printing cylinder for a sufficient period of time at a corresponding printing speed.
- a disadvantage of the second method is the technically very complex mechanical synchronization of the two gears. This also leads to a correspondingly high one Repair requirement and relatively frequent maintenance of the screen printing cylinder machine.
- the print speed is limited by the mechanics. Each increase in the printing speed also leads to a reduction in the downtime of the printing cylinder during the return of the screen carriage, which impairs the exact application of the printing material to the printing cylinder. Overall, the economy of the two methods is very unsatisfactory due to the disadvantages described.
- the present invention has for its object to provide a method for controlling a screen printing cylinder machine, which is characterized by high print quality and great economy through simple technical means and high printing speeds. It is a further object of the present invention to provide a corresponding screen printing cylinder machine with the advantages mentioned above.
- the printing cylinder and the screening carriage are driven independently of one another and the drive motor of the screening carriage is decoupled from the movement of the screening carriage synchronized with the printing cylinder during the printing process and then drives the screening carriage during the return, the printing cylinder being brought to a standstill before completion of the return.
- the drive motor of the screening carriage is brought to a standstill during the printing process and the drive motor of the printing cylinder before the return of the screening carriage has ended.
- the drive motor of the printing cylinder which is at a standstill before the return has ended, holds the printing cylinder in this position during this time in which the printing material is applied.
- the printing cylinder and the screen carriage are driven independently of one another, data for setting the printing path and the printing speed are programmed into an electronic control device, stored therein and processed into control signals for the drives and the respective movement positions of the printing cylinder and of the screen carriage during the printing process are determined by position measuring systems and further processed in the electronic control device for regulating the control signals.
- the above-mentioned advantages are also achieved with this method according to the invention.
- the printing path covered by the screen carriage during the printing process corresponds to a full revolution of the printing cylinder and is adapted to a maximum format size of the printed matter. Therefore, the printing agent is spread by the flood doctor over the entire screen area corresponding to the maximum printing format. The one in the spread of the printing medium on the screen surface evaporation of the solvents contained in the printing medium leads to environmental pollution.
- the consistency of the printing medium also changes, so that it has to be mixed more frequently in order to ensure a constant print quality. Since the squeegee travels the maximum print format with every printing process, it is also exposed to a corresponding load and wear.
- the pressure doctor blade and the flood doctor blade are also controlled as a function of the moving position of the screening carriage. This enables a more precise and easier control of the doctor blade application point, regardless of the printing speed.
- the method according to the invention offers the greatest possible flexibility with regard to the printing process.
- a screen printing cylinder machine of the type mentioned at the outset it is provided according to the first solution that two mutually independent drive motors for driving the printing cylinder during the printing process and for driving the screening carriage during the return, a device with which the drive motor of the screening carriage during the printing process (advance of Screening carriage) can be decoupled from the movement of the screening carriage synchronized with the printing cylinder, and a device with which the printing cylinder can be brought to a standstill before the return of the screening carriage has ended can be used.
- the drive motor of the screening carriage is coupled to the latter via a freewheel, which decouples the drive motor from the screening carriage in the direction of rotation of the motor shaft, which corresponds to the advance of the screening carriage during the printing process, and the drive motor of the printing cylinder is coupled to it via a freewheel, which decouples the drive motor from the pressure cylinder in the direction of rotation of the motor shaft, which corresponds to the return of the screening carriage.
- the first freewheel can e.g. are on the hub of the drive motor of the screening carriage and be designed as an industrial freewheel.
- the second freewheel can in each case on the two gear wheels of the impression cylinder.
- a screen printing machine of the type mentioned at the outset that two mutually independent drive motors for the printing cylinder and the screen carriage and an electronic control device are provided which have an input unit for data for setting the printing path and the printing speed, and an associated programmable memory Computing unit for processing the data in control signals for the drive motors and two control units assigned to the drive motors, which are connected to position measuring systems for the printing cylinder and the screening carriage.
- rotary pulse encoders are provided as displacement measuring systems, which are arranged on the pressure cylinder or a drive wheel for the screening carriage.
- glass measuring rods can also be used instead of the rotary pulse encoder.
- any other suitable measuring system can be considered.
- the screen printing cylinder machine shown schematically there essentially consists of a printing cylinder 1 receiving the material to be printed, a screen carriage 2 traveling over it, a printing squeegee 3 which can be lowered onto the screen stencil and which is raised in the return shown in FIG. 1, and a flood knife 4 lowered during the return.
- the pressure cylinder 1 is connected to a drive 7 via a coaxial pulley 5 connected to it and a toothed belt 6.
- the pulley 5 has a coaxial rotary pulse generator, which serves as a path measuring system 8 for the arc angle of the printing cylinder which has been traveled from the initial position.
- the sieve carriage 2 runs, reversibly moved by a toothed belt 9, over the pressure cylinder 1.
- the toothed belt 9 is driven in its reversing movement by a drive wheel 10 and runs via a pulley 11.
- the drive wheel 10 has a coaxial rotary pulse generator, which acts as a measuring system 12 serves for the distance traveled by the screening carriage 2 from the initial position.

- the two drive motors 17 and 18 are controlled as follows:
- the data for the print path and the print speed are read into the computing unit 13 via a keyboard and stored therein.
- the computing unit 13 processes the data into control signals for the drive motors 17 and 18.
- the control signals are fed to the corresponding control units 15 and 16, where they are converted into the corresponding currents and voltages for the drive motors 17 and 18.
- the printing cylinder 1 and the screen carriage 2 are at rest.
- the squeegees 3 and 4 are raised.
- the printing material not shown in the drawing, is placed on the printing cylinder 1.
- the squeegee 3 is lowered onto the screen template of the screen carriage 2, not shown in the drawing.
- the printing cylinder 1 and the screening carriage 2 start up at a synchronized speed on the basis of corresponding control signals.
- the two displacement measuring systems 8 and 12 transmit the respective movement positions of the printing cylinder 1 and the screening carriage 2 to the control units 15 and 16, respectively.
- the movement positions are compared in the control units 15 and 16 with the control signals which determine the pressure path. If the movement positions correspond to the relevant control signals, a signal is sent from the respective control unit 15 or 16 to the Computing unit 13 transmits, which then outputs a control signal for stopping printing cylinder 1 or screen carriage 2 to control unit 15 or 16.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Steuerung einer Siebdruckzylindermaschine, wobei während des Druckvorgangs ein das Druckgut aufnehmender und durch einen Antriebsmotor angetriebener Druckzylinder und ein über diesen fahrender Siebwagen mit auf die Siebschablone abgesenkter Druckrakel mit synchronisierter Geschwindigkeit bewegt werden. Die Erfindung betrifft weiterhin eine Siebdruckzylindermaschine mit einem das Druckgut aufnehmenden und durch einen Antriebsmotor angetriebenen Druckzylinder, einem über diesen fahrenden Siebwagen, einer auf die Siebschablone absenkbaren Druckrakel und einer Einrichtung zur Synchronisierung der Bewegung des Druckzylinders und des Siebrahmens während des Druckvorgangs, die nach dem vorstehend beschriebenen Verfahren arbeitet.The invention relates to a method for controlling a screen printing cylinder machine, wherein during the printing process a printing cylinder receiving the printing material and driven by a drive motor and a screening carriage traveling over it are moved with synchronized speed with a squeegee lowered onto the screen template. The invention further relates to a screen printing cylinder machine with a printing cylinder receiving the printing material and driven by a drive motor, a screen carriage traveling over it, a squeegee which can be lowered onto the screen stencil and a device for synchronizing the movement of the printing cylinder and the screen frame during the printing process, which according to the above described method works.
Aus dem Stand der Technik, siehe z.B. EP-A-0463258, sind zwei derartige Verfahren bekannt, bei denen der Druckzylinder und der Siebwagen aufgrund einer mechanischen Kopplung durch einen einzigen Antriebsmotor synchron bewegt werden. Die mechanische Kopplung erfolgt in beiden Fällen über ein an jeder Stirnseite des Druckzylinders angeordnetes Zahnrad, das mit einer an der entsprechenden Seite des Siebwagens angeordneten Zahnstange im Eingriff steht. Der vom Siebwagen zurückgelegte Druckweg entspricht exakt einer vollen Umdrehung des Druckzylinders.From the prior art, see e.g. EP-A-0463258, two such methods are known, in which the printing cylinder and the trolley are moved synchronously due to a mechanical coupling by a single drive motor. The mechanical coupling takes place in both cases via a gearwheel arranged on each end face of the pressure cylinder, which meshes with a toothed rack arranged on the corresponding side of the screening carriage. The printing path covered by the screen carriage corresponds exactly to one full revolution of the printing cylinder.
Das erste Verfahren macht von einem sogenannten Schwingzylinder Gebrauch, der an jeder Stirnseite ein einziges Zahnrad aufweist, das sich mit der an der entsprechenden Seite des Siebwagens angebrachten Zahnstange permanent im Eingriff befindet. Nach dem Druckvorgang reversiert der Zylinder in die Anfangsposition, in der er das nächste Druckgut aufnimmt, wobei der Druckablauf sofort neu beginnt.The first method makes use of a so-called oscillating cylinder, which has a single toothed wheel on each end face, which is permanently in engagement with the toothed rack attached to the corresponding side of the screening carriage. After the printing process, the cylinder reverses to the initial position in which it receives the next print item, with the printing process immediately starting again.
Nachteilig bei diesem Verfahren ist, daß der Schwingzylinder ohne Ruhepause von einer Drehbewegung in die entgegengerichtete übergeht, so daß das neu zugeführte Druckgut augenblicklich vom Druckzylinder gefaßt werden muß. Dabei kommt es vor, daß das Druckgut nicht richtig oder nicht optimal am Druckzylinder angelegt wird, was die Druckqualität beeinträchtigt.A disadvantage of this method is that the oscillating cylinder changes from a rotational movement into the opposite direction without a rest, so that the newly fed printing material must be grasped by the printing cylinder immediately. It happens that the print material is not placed correctly or not optimally on the printing cylinder, which affects the print quality.
Das zweite bekannte Verfahren versucht diesen Nachteil dadurch zu vermeiden, daß die Synchronisierung zwischen dem Druckzylinder und dem Siebwagen während des Vor- und Rücklaufs über zwei Zahnräder an jeder Stirnseite des Druckzylinders erfolgt. Das erste Zahnrad steht mit der an der betreffenden Seite des Siebwagens angeordneten Zahnstange während des Druckvorgangs (Vorlauf) im Eingriff. Am Ende des Druckvorgangs werden dieses Zahnrad und die Zahnstange dadurch entkoppelt, daß an entsprechender Stelle des Zahnrads die Zähne durch Abfräsen ausgespart sind. Die Zahnstange kann über das angehaltene Zahnrad ungehindert zurücklaufen. Der Rücklauf des Siebwagens wird durch ein zweites Zahnrad bewirkt, das mit der an der betreffenden Seite des Siebwagens angeordneten Zahnstange während des Rücklaufs in Eingriff gebracht wird. Während des Rücklaufs wird das erste Zahnrad durch eine mechanische Einrichtung festgehalten. Nach erfolgtem Rücklauf wird das erste Zahnrad wieder in Drehbewegung versetzt und mit der Zahnstange des Siebwagens in Eingriff gebracht, wodurch ein erneuter Druckvorgang beginnt. Die beiden Zahnräder werden von einem Antriebsmotor angetrieben. Da sich der mit dem ersten Zahnrad gekoppelte Druckzylinder immer in gleicher Richtung dreht und während des Rücklaufs des Siebwagens anhält, kann das Druckgut während einer ausreichenden Zeitspanne bei entsprechender Druckgeschwindigkeit am Druckzylinder angelegt werden.The second known method tries to avoid this disadvantage in that the synchronization between the printing cylinder and the trolley takes place during the forward and return through two gears on each end of the printing cylinder. The first gearwheel engages with the toothed rack arranged on the relevant side of the screening carriage during the printing process (advance). At the end of the printing process, this toothed wheel and the toothed rack are decoupled in that the teeth are cut out by milling at a corresponding point on the toothed wheel. The rack can run back freely through the stopped gear. The return of the screening carriage is effected by a second gear, which is brought into engagement with the rack arranged on the relevant side of the screening carriage during the return. During the return, the first gear is held in place by a mechanical device. After returning, the first gear is rotated again and brought into engagement with the rack of the screening carriage, whereby a new printing process begins. The two gears are driven by a drive motor. Since the printing cylinder coupled to the first gearwheel always rotates in the same direction and stops during the return of the screening carriage, the printed matter can be applied to the printing cylinder for a sufficient period of time at a corresponding printing speed.
Nachteilig bei dem zweiten Verfahren ist jedoch die technisch sehr aufwendige mechanische Synchronisierung der beiden Zahnräder. Dies führt auch zu einer entsprechend hohen Reparaturanfälligkeit und zu relativ häufiger Wartung der Siebdruckzylindermaschine. Außerdem ist die Druckgeschwindigkeit durch die Mechanik eingeschränkt. Jede Erhöhung der Druckgeschwindigkeit führt außerdem zu einer Verringerung der Stillstandszeit des Druckzylinders während des Rücklaufs des Siebwagens, was ein exaktes Anlegen des Druckgutes an den Druckzylinder beeinträchtigt. Insgesamt ist die Wirtschaftlichkeit der beiden Verfahren aufgrund der beschriebenen Nachteile sehr unbefriedigend.A disadvantage of the second method, however, is the technically very complex mechanical synchronization of the two gears. This also leads to a correspondingly high one Repair requirement and relatively frequent maintenance of the screen printing cylinder machine. In addition, the print speed is limited by the mechanics. Each increase in the printing speed also leads to a reduction in the downtime of the printing cylinder during the return of the screen carriage, which impairs the exact application of the printing material to the printing cylinder. Overall, the economy of the two methods is very unsatisfactory due to the disadvantages described.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren zur Steuerung einer Siebdruckzylindermaschine bereitzustellen, das sich durch eine hohe Druckqualität und große Wirtschaftlichkeit durch einfache technische Mittel und hohe Druckgeschwindigkeiten auszeichnet. Es ist weiterhin Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine entsprechende Siebdruckzylindermaschine mit den obengenannten Vorteilen zu schaffen.The present invention has for its object to provide a method for controlling a screen printing cylinder machine, which is characterized by high print quality and great economy through simple technical means and high printing speeds. It is a further object of the present invention to provide a corresponding screen printing cylinder machine with the advantages mentioned above.
Als eine Lösung der das Verfahren betreffenden Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß vorgeschlagen, daß der Druckzylinder und der Siebwagen unabhängig voneinander angetrieben werden und der Antriebsmotor des Siebwagens während des Druckvorgangs von der mit dem Druckzylinder synchronisierten Bewegung des Siebwagens entkoppelt ist und anschließend während des Rücklaufs den Siebwagen antreibt, wobei der Druckzylinder vor Beendigung des Rücklaufs in Stillstand versetzt wird.As a solution to the problem relating to the method, it is proposed according to the invention that the printing cylinder and the screening carriage are driven independently of one another and the drive motor of the screening carriage is decoupled from the movement of the screening carriage synchronized with the printing cylinder during the printing process and then drives the screening carriage during the return, the printing cylinder being brought to a standstill before completion of the return.
Aufgrund dieser erfindungsgemäßen Lösung ist es möglich, das Druckgut selbst bei hoher Druckgeschwindigkeit während einer ausreichenden Stillstandszeit des Druckzylinders, die der gesamten, zumindest aber einer Restzeit der Rücklaufzeit des Siebwagens entsprechen kann, exakt am Druckzylinder anzulegen. Der technische Aufwand zur Durchführung des Verfahrens ist relativ gering. Zwar werden zum Antrieb des Druckzylinders und des Siebwagens zwei Antriebsmotoren verwendet. Das Verfahren kann jedoch mit wesentlich einfacheren technischen Mitteln realisiert werden als das zweite einleitend beschriebene Verfahren. Es zeichnet sich darüber hinaus durch eine geringere Reparaturanfälligkeit und größere Wartungsfreundlichkeit aus.On the basis of this solution according to the invention, it is possible to apply the printed matter exactly to the printing cylinder even at high printing speed during a sufficient downtime of the printing cylinder, which can correspond to the total, or at least a remaining time, of the return time of the screening carriage. The technical effort to carry out the method is relatively low. Two drive motors are used to drive the printing cylinder and the screening carriage. However, the process can be done with much simpler technical Means are realized as the second method described in the introduction. It is also characterized by less susceptibility to repairs and greater ease of maintenance.
In einer bevorzugten Weiterbildung des Verfahrens ist vorgesehen, daß der Antriebsmotor des Siebwagens während des Druckvorgangs und der Antriebsmotor des Druckzylinders vor Beendigung des Rücklaufs des Siebwagens in Stillstand versetzt werden. Der vor Beendigung des Rücklaufs stillstehende Antriebsmotor des Druckzylinders hält diesen während dieser Zeit in der Position fest, in der das Druckgut angelegt wird.In a preferred development of the method it is provided that the drive motor of the screening carriage is brought to a standstill during the printing process and the drive motor of the printing cylinder before the return of the screening carriage has ended. The drive motor of the printing cylinder, which is at a standstill before the return has ended, holds the printing cylinder in this position during this time in which the printing material is applied.
Als eine zweite Lösung der obengenannten Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß vorgeschlagen, daß der Druckzylinder und der Siebwagen unabhängig voneinander angetrieben werden, Daten zur Einstellung des Druckweges und der Druckgeschwindigkeit in eine elektronische Steuereinrichtung einprogrammiert, darin gespeichert und zu Steuersignalen für die Antriebe verarbeitet werden und die jeweiligen Bewegungspositionen des Druckzylinders und des Siebwagens während des Druckablaufs durch Wegmeßsysteme ermittelt und in der elektronischen Steuereinrichtung zur Regelung der Steuersignale weiterverarbeitet werden.As a second solution to the above object, it is proposed according to the invention that the printing cylinder and the screen carriage are driven independently of one another, data for setting the printing path and the printing speed are programmed into an electronic control device, stored therein and processed into control signals for the drives and the respective movement positions of the printing cylinder and of the screen carriage during the printing process are determined by position measuring systems and further processed in the electronic control device for regulating the control signals.
Mit diesem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren werden ebenfalls die vorstehend genannten Vorteile erzielt. Darüber hinaus ist es möglich, den Druckweg und die Druckgeschwindigkeit der zu bedruckenden Fläche und den sonstigen Erfordernissen des jeweiligen Druckgutes anzupassen. Bei den herkömmlichen Verfahren entspricht der vom Siebwagen während des Druckvorgangs zurückgelegte Druckweg einer vollen Umdrehung des Druckzylinders und ist einer maximalen Formatgröße des Druckgutes angepaßt. Daher wird das Verdruckmittel durch die Flutrakel über die gesamte, dem maximalen Druckformat entsprechende Siebfläche ausgebreitet. Die bei der Ausbreitung des Verdruckmittels auf der Siebfläche erfolgende Verdunstung der in dem Verdruckmittel enthaltenen Lösungsmittel führt zu einer Umweltbelastung. Aufgrund der Verdunstung und anderer Einflüsse bei der Ausbreitung des Verdruckmittels auf der Siebfläche verändert sich auch die Konsistenz des Verdruckmittels, so daß dieses häufiger nachgemischt werden muß, um eine gleichbleibende Druckqualität zu gewährleisten. Da die Druckrakel bei jedem Druckvorgang das maximale Druckformat abfährt, ist auch diese einer entsprechenden Beanspruchung und einem entsprechenden Verschleiß ausgesetzt. Diese Nachteile werden durch den zweiten Lösungsvorschlag vermieden, bei dem der Druckweg auf die jeweilige zu bedruckende Fläche des Druckgutes eingestellt werden kann.The above-mentioned advantages are also achieved with this method according to the invention. In addition, it is possible to adapt the printing path and the printing speed of the surface to be printed and the other requirements of the respective print material. In the conventional methods, the printing path covered by the screen carriage during the printing process corresponds to a full revolution of the printing cylinder and is adapted to a maximum format size of the printed matter. Therefore, the printing agent is spread by the flood doctor over the entire screen area corresponding to the maximum printing format. The one in the spread of the printing medium on the screen surface evaporation of the solvents contained in the printing medium leads to environmental pollution. Because of the evaporation and other influences during the spreading of the printing medium on the screen surface, the consistency of the printing medium also changes, so that it has to be mixed more frequently in order to ensure a constant print quality. Since the squeegee travels the maximum print format with every printing process, it is also exposed to a corresponding load and wear. These disadvantages are avoided by the second proposed solution, in which the printing path can be adjusted to the respective surface of the printed material to be printed.
Bei einer Weiterbildung dieser Lösung werden auch die Druckrakel und die Flutrakel in Abhängigkeit von der Bewegungsposition des Siebwagens angesteuert. Dadurch wird eine genauere und einfachere Steuerung des Rakeleinsatzpunktes ermöglicht, und zwar unabhängig von der Druckgeschwindigkeit.In a further development of this solution, the pressure doctor blade and the flood doctor blade are also controlled as a function of the moving position of the screening carriage. This enables a more precise and easier control of the doctor blade application point, regardless of the printing speed.
Insgesamt bietet das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren eine größtmögliche Flexibilität in bezug auf den Druckablauf.Overall, the method according to the invention offers the greatest possible flexibility with regard to the printing process.
Bei einer Siebdruckzylindermaschine der eingangs genannten Art ist entsprechend der ersten Lösung vorgesehen, daß zwei voneinander unabhängige Antriebsmotoren zum Antrieb des Druckzylinders während des Druckvorgangs und zum Antrieb des Siebwagens während des Rücklaufs, eine Einrichtung, mit der der Antriebsmotor des Siebwagens während des Druckvorgangs (Vorlauf des Siebwagens) von der mit dem Druckzylinder synchronisierten Bewegung des Siebwagens entkoppelbar ist, und eine Einrichtung, mit der der Druckzylinder vor Beendigung des Rücklaufs des Siebwagens in Stillstand versetzbar ist, verwendet werden.In a screen printing cylinder machine of the type mentioned at the outset, it is provided according to the first solution that two mutually independent drive motors for driving the printing cylinder during the printing process and for driving the screening carriage during the return, a device with which the drive motor of the screening carriage during the printing process (advance of Screening carriage) can be decoupled from the movement of the screening carriage synchronized with the printing cylinder, and a device with which the printing cylinder can be brought to a standstill before the return of the screening carriage has ended can be used.
In einer bevorzugten Weiterbildung ist der Antriebsmotor des Siebwagens mit diesem über einen Freilauf gekoppelt, der den Antriebsmotor vom Siebwagen in der Drehrichtung der Motorwelle entkoppelt, die dem Vorlauf des Siebwagens während des Druckvorgangs entspricht, und der Antriebsmotor des Druckzylinders mit diesem über einen Freilauf gekoppelt, der den Antriebsmotor vom Druckzylinder in der Drehrichtung der Motorwelle entkoppelt, die dem Rücklauf des Siebwagens entspricht.In a preferred development, the drive motor of the screening carriage is coupled to the latter via a freewheel, which decouples the drive motor from the screening carriage in the direction of rotation of the motor shaft, which corresponds to the advance of the screening carriage during the printing process, and the drive motor of the printing cylinder is coupled to it via a freewheel, which decouples the drive motor from the pressure cylinder in the direction of rotation of the motor shaft, which corresponds to the return of the screening carriage.
Der erste Freilauf kann sich z.B. auf der Nabe des Antriebsmotors des Siebwagens befinden und als Industriefreilauf ausgebildet sein. Insbesondere dann, wenn als Einrichtung zur Synchronisierung der Bewegung des Druckzylinders und des Siebwagens ein an jeder Stirnseite des Druckzylinders angeordnetes Zahnrad verwendet wird, das mit einer an der entsprechenden Seite des Siebwagens angeordneten Zahnstange im Eingriff steht, kann der zweite Freilauf jeweils auf den beiden Zahnrädern des Druckzylinders vorgesehen sein.The first freewheel can e.g. are on the hub of the drive motor of the screening carriage and be designed as an industrial freewheel. In particular, if a gear arranged on each end face of the printing cylinder is used as a device for synchronizing the movement of the printing cylinder and the screen carriage, which meshes with a rack arranged on the corresponding side of the screen carriage, the second freewheel can in each case on the two gear wheels of the impression cylinder.
Entsprechend der zweiten vorgeschlagenen Lösung ist bei einer Siebdruckmaschine der eingangs genannten Art vorgesehen, daß zwei voneinander unabhängige Antriebsmotoren für den Druckzylinder und den Siebwagen und eine elektronische Steuereinrichtung vorgesehen sind, die eine Eingabeeinheit für Daten zur Einstellung des Druckweges und der Druckgeschwindigkeit, eine damit verbundene speicherprogrammierbare Recheneinheit zur Verarbeitung der Daten in Steuersignale für die Antriebsmotoren und zwei den Antriebsmotoren zugeordnete Regeleinheiten umfaßt, die mit Wegmeßsystemen für den Druckzylinder und den Siebwagen verbunden sind.According to the second proposed solution, it is provided in a screen printing machine of the type mentioned at the outset that two mutually independent drive motors for the printing cylinder and the screen carriage and an electronic control device are provided which have an input unit for data for setting the printing path and the printing speed, and an associated programmable memory Computing unit for processing the data in control signals for the drive motors and two control units assigned to the drive motors, which are connected to position measuring systems for the printing cylinder and the screening carriage.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung sind als Wegmeßsysteme Drehimpulsgeber vorgesehen, die am Druckzylinder bzw. einem Antriebsrad für den Siebwagen angeordnet sind.In a preferred embodiment, rotary pulse encoders are provided as displacement measuring systems, which are arranged on the pressure cylinder or a drive wheel for the screening carriage.
Anstelle der Drehimpulsgeber können in einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführung auch Glasmeßstäbe verwendet werden. Darüber hinaus kommt jedes andere geeignete Wegmeßsystem in Betracht.In another preferred embodiment, glass measuring rods can also be used instead of the rotary pulse encoder. In addition, any other suitable measuring system can be considered.

Wie aus Fig. 1 hervorgeht, besteht die dort schematisch gezeigte Siebdruckzylindermaschine im wesentlichen aus einem das Druckgut aufnehmenden Druckzylinder 1, einem über diesen fahrenden Siebwagen 2, einer auf die Siebschablone absenkbaren Druckrakel 3, die bei dem in Fig. 1 dargestellten Rücklauf hochgestellt ist, und einer während des Rücklaufs abgesenkten Flutrakel 4.As can be seen from FIG. 1, the screen printing cylinder machine shown schematically there essentially consists of a printing cylinder 1 receiving the material to be printed, a screen carriage 2 traveling over it, a printing squeegee 3 which can be lowered onto the screen stencil and which is raised in the return shown in FIG. 1, and a flood knife 4 lowered during the return.

Antriebsmotor 18 des Siebwagens 2.As shown schematically in FIG. 2, the electronic control device for the screen printing cylinder machine shown in FIG. 1 essentially consists of a
Die Steuerung der beiden Antriebsmotoren 17 und 18 geschieht wie folgt:The two
Über die Eingabeeinheit 14 werden z.B. über eine Tastatur die Daten für den Druckweg und die Druckgeschwindigkeit in die Recheneinheit 13 eingelesen und darin gespeichert. Die Recheneinheit 13 verarbeitet die Daten zu Steuersignalen für die Antriebsmotoren 17 und 18. Die Steuersignale werden den entsprechenden Regeleinheiten 15 und 16 zugeleitet, wo sie zu den entsprechenden Strömen und Spannungen für die Antriebsmotoren 17 und 18 umgewandelt werden.Via the
In der Anfangsposition eines Druckablaufs befinden sich der Druckzylinder 1 und der Siebwagen 2 in Ruhe. Die Druck- und Flutrakel 3 bzw. 4 sind hochgestellt. In dieser Position wird das in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellte Druckgut an den Druckzylinder 1 angelegt. Zu Beginn des Druckablaufs wird die Druckrakel 3 auf die in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellte Siebschablone des Siebwagens 2 abgesenkt. Der Druckzylinder 1 und der Siebwagen 2 laufen mit synchronisierter Geschwindigkeit aufgrund entsprechender Steuersignale an.In the initial position of a printing process, the printing cylinder 1 and the screen carriage 2 are at rest. The squeegees 3 and 4 are raised. In this position, the printing material, not shown in the drawing, is placed on the printing cylinder 1. At the beginning of the printing process, the squeegee 3 is lowered onto the screen template of the screen carriage 2, not shown in the drawing. The printing cylinder 1 and the screening carriage 2 start up at a synchronized speed on the basis of corresponding control signals.
Die beiden Wegmeßsysteme 8 und 12 übermitteln die jeweiligen Bewegungspositionen des Druckzylinders 1 und des Siebwagens 2 an die Regeleinheiten 15 bzw. 16. Die Bewegungspositionen werden in den Regeleinheiten 15 und 16 mit den den Druckweg festlegenden Steuersignalen verglichen. Entsprechen die Bewegungspositionen den betreffenden Steuersignalen, so wird ein Signal von der jeweiligen Regeleinheit 15 bzw. 16 an die Recheneinheit 13 übermittelt, die dann ein Steuersignal zum Anhalten des Druckzylinders 1 bzw. Siebwagens 2 an die Regeleinheit 15 bzw. 16 abgibt.The two
Der Druckvorgang wird dadurch beendet, daß der Siebwagen 2 nach Erreichen des in die Recheneinheit 13 einprogrammierten Druckweges anhält und die Druckrakel 3 nach oben bewegt wird. Der Druckzylinder 1 läuft dabei in der gleichen Drehrichtung weiter bis in die Anfangsposition.The printing process is ended in that the screen carriage 2 stops after reaching the printing path programmed into the
Beim Anhalten des Siebwagens 2 nach Beendigung des Druckvorgangs wird die Flutrakel 4 auf die Siebschablone des Siebwagens 2 abgesenkt. Bei dem sich an den Druckvorgang unmittelbar anschließenden Rücklauf des Siebwagens 2 wird dieser in die Anfangsposition zurückgefahren und durch ein entsprechendes Steuersignal angehalten. Die Flutrakel 4 wird nach dem Anhalten hochbewegt. Sobald der Druckzylinder 1 seine Anfangsposition wieder erreicht hat, ist der Druckablauf abgeschlossen, und das nächste Druckgut wird am Druckzylinder 1 angelegt. Der Druckablauf beginnt dann von neuem.When the screen carriage 2 stops after the printing process has been completed, the flood doctor 4 is lowered onto the screen template of the screen carriage 2. When the screen carriage 2 returns immediately after the printing process, it is moved back to the starting position and stopped by a corresponding control signal. The flood knife 4 is moved up after stopping. As soon as the printing cylinder 1 has reached its starting position again, the printing process is completed and the next printing material is placed on the printing cylinder 1. The printing process then starts again.
