Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for setting the register in a multicolor printing machine having a plurality of devices for digitally generating Operadurdem, wherein supply of printing substrates of another sort means before printing the pressure of existing correction values for correcting the register setting, the creation and assembly of the partial color images is controlled according to claim 1.
  • the printing of color representations takes place in that several partial color images are printed one above the other. These are usually the colors yellow, magenta and cyan as well as black. If necessary, special colors are added.
  • the overprinting of these colors can be achieved all color combinations, the quality of the prints depends significantly on the register-based overprinting of the partial color images.
  • the registration of the overprinting is achieved by controlling the image forming means so that the partial color images register in register when transferred to a printing substrate.
  • a method of the type mentioned is from the US Pat. No. 5,689,757 known. There it is taught to take into account the influence of paper roughness on the register when feeding of printing substrates of another variety. For this, the roughness of a paper to be printed is measured. The influence of the paper roughness on the register is then taken into account by the register control before the paper is fed to the printing process.
  • EP-A-0 770 480 a printing machine with an automatic register control for a plurality of imaging units having the features in the preamble of claim 1.
  • the document US-A-5,365,847 discloses a controller of a printing machine in which register errors are picked up and a reference image is changed with respect to.
  • the document DE-A-19844495 discloses a method for calibrating a digitally controllable printing press.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object, a method of the type mentioned in such a way that when changing the type of printing substrate, the influence of this change can be optimally compensated for the register before the printing substrate is fed to the printing process.
  • the object is achieved with respect to the method according to the invention by the features of claim 1
  • the invention is based on the finding that there are several properties of printing substrates which have an influence on the register and an optimal compensation of the effects of these properties when changing the printing substrate type is only possible if the sum of the influences of all relevant properties in this regard is taken into account. If essential properties are disregarded, then only the post-correction mentioned at the outset remains by evaluation of a test print result.
  • Optimal correction is achieved by the invention, since the sum of all these influences is taken into account, without it being important which and how many properties of the printing substrate have which influence. It is also possible to incorporate changes in the properties of a printing substrate within the machine as they change from one printing unit to another by heating, flattening, or printing with one or more partial color images. In this case, the correction values for the individual printing units are correspondingly different.
  • a register setting of known type can be optimized so that it does not first "out of control" at Drucksubstratsortenuncin to be subsequently corrected again, but the register setting remains within tolerable fluctuations, so that when changing to another variety of Print substrates can be printed without interruption.
  • the invention does not exclude the additional consideration of other influencing variables, which are caused by a pressure side, but not by the type of printing substrate.
  • An example of such an influence is the toner application, which is determined by the image motif and results in a different toner profile with respect to each partial color image. It also plays no role in the inventive measure, whether the print substrate carrier with the Print substrates for transferring the partial color images interacts directly with the image cylinders or whether image transfer cylinders are interposed.
  • a further development of the method provides that in a register correction as a result of a change of the printing substrate type the retroactive influence of the properties of the printing substrate from previous but still in the printing process printed pages on the register of the new, already in the printing process pressure side is taken into account.
  • the fact is taken into account for each printing unit that the influences on the register are still determined by the printing substrates of the previous printed pages, while already an imaging of the image cylinder is made with a partial color image of the new printed page.
  • this change of the printing substrate properties, which have a relevant influence on the register takes place successively on one printing group after the other, that is to say "through the machine". In this way, the registration of the prints is guaranteed even better at a pressure page change.
  • the printing press can continue to print without interruption even if between the creation of two partial color images of the print page change takes place so that the new partial color image is already created, while the previous partial color image of the previous page was not or not fully transferred to the print substrate.
  • the registration is thus ensured to a large extent and any mutual influence is compensated when successively different types of printing substrates are printed, even if they change with each print page.
  • the economic efficiency of the printing press is substantially increased and their use for printing individual editions is possible.
  • the at least one controller is designed such that it at a register correction due to a change of the printing substrate type the retroactive influence of the properties of the printing substrate of the previous, but still in the printing process printed pages on the register of the new, already taken into account in the printing process pressure side.
  • the consideration of the properties of printing substrates can be made on the basis of stored data for the common or repeating printing substrates.
  • the consideration of the change of the printing substrate type can take place by means of the storage of data to be processed printed pages. This is suitable for all machines that execute computer-controlled a number of printed pages and different printing substrates, with all the essential data of the printed pages, including those of the printing substrate to be used, are available.
  • the advantage is an automatic procedure that can be implanted using appropriate software.
  • the apparatus in order to take into account the characteristics of common types of printing substrates, it is contemplated that it is provided with at least one memory containing stored data of correction values of common or repeating print substrate locations, the at least one controller based on that data and merging the part color images controls.
  • An automatic consideration of data on printing substrates is achieved with respect to the device in that it is equipped with a memory for loading with data to be processed print pages and the at least one controller determines the required correction values from these data.
  • the determination of the correction values from the data may be either an immediate removal thereof or an access indication which the controller associates with the above-mentioned data on printing substrates for common or user-repeating printing substrate grades.
  • correction values for a printing substrate Another possibility for determining the correction values for a printing substrate is that correction values for various properties of printing substrates are available as stored data and that these properties are determined and the correction values resulting from these properties are taken into account.
  • the device is equipped with at least one memory which is loaded with data for various properties of printing substrates, that it has a device for measuring properties of printing substrates and that the at least one controller is designed such that they the correction values of the register setting resulting from these properties are used.
  • the influences of various properties such as the printing substrate thickness, the surface condition, the stiffness, etc., must be detected separately, in order then to determine the correction values for the respectively determined sum of different properties of a concrete printing substrate type. This procedure is particularly suitable if they are not common or repetitive types of printing substrate.
  • correction values themselves can be entered or it is possible that the entry of an identification makes use of stored data.
  • an input device is provided, via which the correction values or the identification can be entered.
  • the correction values for various printing substrates are machine-specific empirical values which can be input manually or are advantageously stored in at least one memory of the printing press.
  • Machine-specific can refer to a specific machine or to a specific machine type.
  • the empirical values can be determined by test prints and constantly corrected by evaluating prints during operation.
  • the invention has the purpose of serving to correct an existing register control.
  • the latter can be designed such that it is based on the detection of register marks, which are printed by the individual printing units.
  • the invention provides that this correction takes place before a change can influence the register marks.
  • the apparatus may also be provided for the at least one controller to be arranged to regulate the register by means of register marks which are printed by the individual printing units and detected by a register sensor and to take into account the correction values before any change in the type of printing substrate has an influence on the printing substrate Register can have.
  • the invention can also be used to correct a register control, which is based on the detection of the positions of the partial color image and substrate-carrying elements.
  • the at least one controller is designed such that it regulates the register by detecting the positions of the partial color image and substrate-carrying elements by position detection elements and takes into account the correction values before a change can influence the register marks.
  • the position detection elements may be rotary encoders.
  • the invention is used to correct one of the aforementioned register controls, then a significant advantage of the invention comes to bear. Since the invention fully takes into account the influence of a printing substrate type, the upstream Register adjustment without printing substrates in idle machine. Also register marks can be detected without printing substrates by being printed directly on the support and then removed again. In this way, no printing substrates are consumed for register setting.
  • the printing unit 8 has a device 2 for the digital production of partial color images 3 on an image cylinder 9.
  • the partial color image 3 is brought by a transfer 30 from the image cylinder 9 to an image transfer cylinder 10.
  • the partial color image 3 comes to a printing substrate 16.
  • the printing substrates 16 are transported by a printing substrate substrate 11, wherein the printing substrates 16 successively all printing units 8, 8 ', ... pass.
  • the drive via a drive roller 23 of the print substrate carrier 11 takes place.
  • the print substrate carrier 11 in turn drives the image transfer cylinders 10, 10', ... and they drive the Image cylinder 9, 9 ', ....
  • the print substrate carrier 11 could directly drive the image cylinder 9, 9', ....
  • the arrows 22 show the directions of rotation of the cylinders 9, 9 ', ...; 10, 10 ', ... and the arrow 29, the transport direction of the printing substrates 5 and thus the direction of movement of the printing substrate substrate eleventh
  • the printing substrate support 11 is in frictional communication with the printing substrates 16 with the image transfer cylinders 10, 10 ', ..., and they are in communication with the image cylinders 9, 9', ... since, for example, the carriage 11 drives the image transfer cylinder 11 at the location of the transmission 31 a cam 24, which affects the speed of the image transfer cylinder 10. If, for example, the printing substrate thickness 17 is changed in the direction of a thicker paper, then the effective radius for the drive of the image transfer cylinder 10 increases since the printing substrate thickness 17 is included therein. Thus, the effective circumference of the image transfer cylinder 10 becomes larger and thereby the image transfer cylinder 10 slower relative to the drive roller 23. However, this problem is independent of whether the Drive is introduced to the drive roller 23 or at another point, since the surfaces of the partial image and substrate-carrying elements 9, 9 ', ...; 10, 10 ', ...; 11 in any case roll on each other.
  • the printing substrate thickness 17 exerts an influence on the register.
  • a further influence results from the slip occurring between the pressure substrate 16 and the image transfer cylinder 10 during the power transmission.
  • This slip is in turn determined by the friction coefficient and thus by the surface condition 35 of the printing substrate 16 and by the contact pressure 34.
  • the contact pressure 34 increases again with a larger print substrate thickness 17. Since the force transmission takes place at the gaps between the printing substrates 16 through the print substrate 11, finally also the lengths 36 of the printing substrates 16 and the spacings 37 between the printing substrates 16 in the control of the creation of the Partial color images 3, 3 ', ... are included in order to achieve a register-accurate combination of the same.
  • printing substrates 16 can still play a role. It can turn out, especially with unusual printing substrates, that properties have an influence on the register, which does not play a role in other printing substrates. For this reason, it is expedient if the properties of printing substrates 16 based on stored data 6 (see Fig. 2 ), which contain correction values 4 as empirical values that take into account all properties in their total.
  • the manufacturer of the printing machine can provide data 6 for common types of printing substrate available and the printer has the ability, by means of a detection of proofs, for example by printing and the evaluation of register marks 7, 7 ', ... data 6 for other printing substrates 16 to detect and store when it processes these printing substrates 16 more often.
  • Fig. 1 Another problem will be explained below: While the partial color image 3 of the preceding printing page 5 from the image transfer cylinder 10th is transferred to a printing substrate 16, it is possible that the image cylinder 9 is already imaged by the device 2 with the partial color image 3 of a new printed page 5 '. This is indicated by the reference numerals 3 and 5 'and the dot-dashed arrows. In this case, in order to obtain a registration of the new printing page 5 ', the printing substrate properties of the printing substrates of the previous printing page 5 must be taken into account in the imaging of the image cylinder 9. Therefore, a development of the invention provides that the at least one controller 12, 12 ', ...; 15 (see Fig.

  • these devices 2, 2 '... new partial color images 3, 3',... Are created for each printing, whereby each image can be different and can also be printed on another type of printing substrate 16.
  • Each printing unit 8, 8 ', ... has an image cylinder 9, 9', ... and an image transfer cylinder 10, 10 ', ..., the latter the partial color images 3, 3', ... on the printing substrates 16 transfer. These are transported in the direction of the arrow 29 by a printing substrate carrier 11 through the printing machine 1.
