Abstract

Eine Druckmaschine, insbesondere eine Rollenrotations-Offsetdruckmaschine mit einem eine erste Druckplatte (20a) und eine zweite Druckplatte (20b) tragenden Plattenzylinder (3, 13), wobei der Plattenzylinder (3, 13) einen Zylinderkörper (27) mit einer Außenoberfläche (25) und eine in eine Klemmposition und eine Freigabeposition bewegbare gemeinsame Klemmvorrichtung (5, 15) zum Festklemmen der Druckplatten (20a, 20b) auf dem Plattenzylinder (3, 13) umfasst, zeichnet sich aus durch eine nahe der Klemmvorrichtung (5, 15) angeordnete Andrückleiste (4, 14), die ein erstes Segment (4A) zum Andrücken und Halten der ersten Druckplatte (20a) auf dem Plattenzylinder (3, 13) und ein zweites Segment (4B) zum Andrücken und Halten der zweiten Druckplatte (20b) auf dem Plattenzylinder (3, 13) umfasst, wobei das erste Segment (4A) unabhängig von dem zweiten Segment (4B) bewegbar ist.

Figure 00000001
A printing press, in particular a web-fed rotary offset printing press, having a plate cylinder (3, 13) carrying a first printing plate (20a) and a second printing plate (20b), the plate cylinder (3, 13) having a cylinder body (27) with an outer surface (25) and comprises a common clamping device (5, 15) which can be moved into a clamping position and a release position for clamping the printing plates (20a, 20b) on the plate cylinder (3, 13), is characterized by a pressure bar arranged near the clamping device (5, 15) (4, 14), which has a first segment (4A) for pressing and holding the first pressure plate (20a) on the plate cylinder (3, 13) and a second segment (4B) for pressing and holding the second pressure plate (20b) on the Plate cylinder (3, 13), the first segment (4A) being movable independently of the second segment (4B).
