Abstract

Ein Plattenzylinder (10) umfasst einen zylindrischen Körper mit mindestens einem äußeren Spalt (20), der sich axial relativ zu dem zylindrischen Körper erstreckt, und mindestens einem durch eine externe Ausrichtvorrichtung (70,170) in dem Spalt (20) verschiebbaren Registerstift (12,13,14,15). Weiterhin ist eine externe Ausrichtvorrichtung (70,170) vorgesehen, die eine Basis (71) zum Anbringen an der Peripherie des Plattenzylinders (10) umfasst sowie einen Stiftschieber (74), der operativ verbunden ist mit einem Registerstift (12,13,14,15) in einem Spalt (20) des Plattenzylinders (10), wobei der Stiftschieber (74,174) axial zur Basis (71) verschiebbar ist. Ein Verfahren zum Ausrichten von Platten (2,3) auf einem Plattenzylinder (10) sieht vor, dass eine externe Ausrichtvorrichtung (70,170) auf einem Plattenzylinder (10) platziert wird, wobei der Plattenzylinder (10) mindestens einen Registerstift (12,13,14,15) aufweist, und dass der Registerstift axial mit der externen Ausrichtvorrichtung (70,170) bewegt wird.

A plate cylinder (10) comprises a cylindrical body with at least one outer gap (20) which extends axially relative to the cylindrical body, and at least one register pin (12, 13) which can be displaced in the gap (20) by an external alignment device (70, 170) , 14-15). An external alignment device (70, 170) is also provided, which comprises a base (71) for attachment to the periphery of the plate cylinder (10) and a pin slider (74), which is operatively connected to a register pin (12, 13, 14, 15) in a gap (20) of the plate cylinder (10), the pin slide (74, 174) being axially displaceable relative to the base (71). A method for aligning plates (2, 3) on a plate cylinder (10) provides that an external alignment device (70, 170) is placed on a plate cylinder (10), the plate cylinder (10) having at least one register pin (12, 13, 14, 15), and that the register pin is moved axially with the external alignment device (70, 170).
