An Rotationsdruckmaschinen entstehen prozessbedingt, abhängig von der Druckfarbe und dem zu bedruckenden Papier, Farb- und Papierstaubablagerungen, welche mit steigender Druckauflage zunehmen und ab einer gewissen Menge die Druckqualität negativ beeinflussen.On rotary printing presses, process-dependent, dependent of the printing ink and the paper to be printed, color and Paper dust deposits, which increase with increasing print runs and negatively affect the print quality from a certain amount.

In den meisten Fällen werden die Gummituchdruckzyinder während eines Maschinenstopps manuell gereinigt, was neben dem Aufwand auch Sicherheitsrisiken für das Personal darstellt, da die Zylinder motorisch getrieben rotieren..In most cases, the blanket printing cylinders manually cleaned during a machine stop, which is next to the Effort also represents security risks for the personnel, since the Rotate cylinder driven by motor ..

Seit geraumer Zeit werden automatisierte Gummituchwaschsysteme zum Reinigen der Gummituchdruckzylinder eingesetzt. Diese Systeme basieren aufeiner rotierenden Bürste oder einem sich im Takt abwickelnden Reinigungstuch, welche über ein Düsensprühsystem mit Waschmittel und Wasser benetzt werden. Durch ein Anstellen an den rotierenden Gummituchdruckzylinder entsteht der Reinigungsvorgang. Alle diese Systeme reinigen ausschließlich unter Anwendung von Waschmittel.Automated blanket washing systems have been used for some time used to clean the blanket printing cylinder. This Systems are based on a rotating brush or one in time unwinding cleaning cloth, which with a nozzle spray system Detergent and water can be wetted. By hiring at the rotating blanket printing cylinder creates the cleaning process. All of these systems clean using only Laundry detergent.

Derartige Gummituchwaschsysteme sind ausschließlich fest dem Gummituchzylinder zugeordnet und werden eingesetzt um in bestimmtem Zyklus, nach einer Anzahl von Drucken und nach Produktionsende, den Gummituchdruckzylinder zu waschen. Durch dieses Waschen werden die Farb- und Papierstaubablagerungen abgewaschen. Das frisch gereinigte Gummituch des Gummituchdruckzylinders gewährleistet einen qualitativ ordnungsgemäßen Fortdruck der laufenden Druckauf-lage oder die ordnungsgemäße Startbedingung nach einem Auftragswechsel.Such blanket washing systems are only fixed Blanket cylinders are assigned and are used to order in certain Cycle, after a number of prints and after the end of production, wash the blanket printing cylinder. Be through this washing the ink and paper dust deposits washed off. That fresh cleaned blanket of the blanket printing cylinder ensures a qualitatively correct printing of the current print run or the correct start condition after a job change.

Die Waschsysteme werden meist automatisch zugeschaltet, an den Gummituchdruckzylinder angestellt und überein definiertes Waschprogramm vom Bedinungspult der Rotation oder über einen Leitrechner gestartet.The washing systems are usually switched on automatically the blanket printing cylinder and a defined washing program from the control panel of the rotation or via a master computer started.

Der Nachteil aller sich am Markt befindlichen Gummituchwaschsysteme ist die feste Zuordnung zum Gummituchdruckzylinder. Diese macht eine aufwendige Integration bzw. Montagenotwendig. Zudem sind bei jedem Rotationsmaschinentype und Rotationsmaschinenformat zylinderumfangsabhängig entsprechende konstruktive, mechanische Anpassungen am Gummituchwaschsystem und an der Rotationsmaschine erforderlich. The disadvantage of all blanket washing systems on the market is the fixed assignment to the blanket printing cylinder. This makes complex integration or assembly necessary. Also are for every rotary machine type and rotary machine format depending on the cylinder circumference corresponding constructive, mechanical Adjustments to the blanket washing system and the rotary machine required.

Weitere Nachteile sind die Breiten der Gummituchwaschsysteme, welche alle die Breite des zu reinigenden Zylinders haben und bedingt durch die feste Installation und Zuordnung zum jeweiligen Gummituchdruckzylinder die technische Verbautheit des Zylinders sowie die eingeschränkte Ergonomie.Other disadvantages are the widths of the blanket washing systems, which all have and are the width of the cylinder to be cleaned through the fixed installation and assignment to the respective Blanket printing cylinder the technical construction of the cylinder as well as the limited ergonomics.

D.h. die für den Bediener erforderliche Zugänglichkeit ist eingeschränkt. So können, die sich auf dem Gummituchdruckzylinder befindlichen Gummitücher, welche durch Beschädigung oder Abnutzung während oder nach dem Produktionsprozess gewechselt werden müssen, nur gewechselt werden, wenn das jeweilige Gummituchwaschsystem ausgebaut und entfernt wird.I.e. the accessibility required for the operator is limited. So that can be found on the blanket printing cylinder Blankets that are damaged or worn must be changed during or after the production process, can only be changed if the respective blanket washing system is removed and removed.

Ein weiterer Nachteil ist, daß die Systeme durch die feste Zuordnung zum jeweiligen Gummituchdruckzylinder in der Regel untereinander nicht austauschbar sind und analog der Anzahl von Gummituchdruckzylindern, auch Gummituchwaschsysteme zu installieren sind.Another disadvantage is that the systems are fixed Assignment to the respective blanket printing cylinder usually with each other are not interchangeable and analogous to the number of Blanket printing cylinders, also to install blanket washing systems are.

Ein weiterer Nachteil ist der durch den hohen technischen Aufwand bedingte Service-, Reinigungs-, und Unterhaltsaufwand.Another disadvantage is the high technical Effort related service, cleaning and maintenance expenses.

Weitere Nachteile sind, daß durch die notwendige Anwendung von Waschmittel und Wasser zwei Mittel angewendet werden, welche je nach Verschmutzungsgrad der Gummituchdruckzylinder nicht effizient genug sind bzw. eine entsprechende Waschdauer erforderlich machen. Ebenso die Tatsache, daß systembedingt nach dem Reinigungsprozess, in der Regel bei den Bürstensystemen, der Gummituchdruckzylinder nicht abgetrocknet ist. Dies kann je nach den Bedingungen in der Rotationsdruckmaschine zu Problemen beim Produktionsstart durch Papierbahnrisse führen.Other disadvantages are that due to the necessary application of detergent and water two agents are used, each not efficient due to the degree of soiling of the blanket printing cylinders are enough or require a corresponding washing time. Likewise the fact that after the cleaning process, usually with the brush systems, the blanket printing cylinder is not dry. This can vary depending on the conditions in the Rotary press to problems with the start of production Lead paper web breaks.
