Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and device for cleaning guide rollers in a printing press, a paper web being lead over these rollers in continuous motion.
  • the web is provided with a length of washing solution or cleaning liquid, and the length is transferred to each roller, which is braked pulswise, when an appropriate part of said length passes over it
  • a printing press is often provided with a large number of guide rollers, over which the web is lead to further processes after printing.
  • the total number of such rollers is often many times greater than the number used in a certain application.
  • rollers used will after a certain running time cause set-off problems by being dirtied with printing ink residues, paper fibres and so forth and need to be cleaned.
  • the web can be removed from the printing press and the used rollers be manually cleaned with a washing solution or cleaning liquid. It goes without saying that such a manual cleaning is laborious and splashy, and after the cleaning the web has again to be lead through the press manually.
  • EP-A-423 093 (from the same applicant as in the present case), DE-C-3 900 657, and US-A-4 781 116 are examples of the prior art as defined in the introductory paragraph above.
  • a more convenient method of cleaning the utilized guide rollers is according to the invention attained in that the position - in the form x/y coordinates in a printing press related coordinate system - of each roller to be cleaned, the diameter of the roller, and the speed of the web are supplied to a computer for determining an appropriate roller braking sequence.
  • This sequence may involve more than said maximum number of rollers, but for avoiding web break they are not allowed to be braked concurrently.
  • the x/y coordinates and the diameter of each roller in the press can be pre-entered in the computer together with a corresponding ordinal number. For a certain set-up only the ordinal numbers for the rollers used need to be entered in the computer in the order they are engaged by the web.
  • the length of washing solution on the web is preferably applied by means of an applicator remote from the rollers in the printing press.
  • the above defined process means that washing solution in a certain length is applied on the web and transported to each roller to be cleaned.
  • the rotating roller will be provided with washing solution from the web.
  • the cleaning effect is greatly enhanced by pulsewise braking of the roller, so that it will be rubbed and cleaned. If desired for improving the cleaning and drying of the roller, pulsewise braking of the roller may also occur, when a dry part of the web has reached the roller.
  • a printing press has a number of printing units 1, each having an ink train, a dampener arrangement, a plate cylinder and a blanket cylinder in the case of an offset press. (It has to be noted, however, that the invention is applicable to different types of printing presses.)
  • a paper web 2 passes the blanket cylinder in the printing unit 1, where it is printed.
  • the web After having been printed, the web continues over a certain number of rollers or guide rollers 3 out of a much greater number of such rollers totally provided in the press.
  • the chosen path for the web depends on the further processing in the press, which may vary widely.
  • This brake 4 may for example be electrically controlled, pneumatically operated and mechanically applied. Other designs are possible.
  • an applicator 5 for washing solution or cleaning liquid is arranged at the web 2, preferably before or downstream of the printing unit 1, an applicator 5 for washing solution or cleaning liquid is arranged.
  • This applicator is further described in applicant's copending Swedish Patent Application No 9504660-3, and no description is accordingly given here.
  • a washing solution may be tranferred from the applicator 5 to the web 2.
  • the roller is withdrawn from contact with the web 2.
  • the device is provided with a computerized control system, whereby a cleaning sequence as described below may be obtained.
  • the positions of the respective rollers 3 used in a particular set-up are supplied to the computer in the form of x/y coordinates with a suitable origo in the printing press, for example in the applicator 5. Also positions of rollers and/or bars over which the web is lead but which are not to be cleaned have to be put into the computer. Further data put into the computer are the speed of the web 2 and the diameter of each roller 3 passed by the web 2. The winding angle of the web 2 around each roller 3 is computed by the computer.
  • control system may operate the arrangement in the following way for cleaning each roller 3 used in a particular set-up from paper fibres, printing ink residues and the like:
  • the web 2 moves with a given speed through the arrangement.
  • the applicator 5 provides the web with a length of washing solution which is either fixed or appropriate with regard to the number of rollers to be cleaned. Based on the input data and the fact that only a limited number of rollers may be braked at a time for avoiding an otherwise occurring web break, the computer determines a certain brake sequence for the roller brakes, so that an optimal cleaning result is obtained. When an appropriate part of the washing solution length reaches a rotating roller 3, washing solution is transferred to the roller. In order to greatly improve the cleaning of the roller by a rubbing effect, the roller is then braked pulswise by its brake 4.
  • the washing solution can then together with the dirt be removed by a subsequent dry part of the web 2.
  • the cleaning and drying effect may be improved by pulsewise braking of the roller also at this stage, but the main cleaning effect is obtained in the first stage with the washing solution.
