Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur wenigstens teilweise taktgebundenen Herstellung gebundener Druckerzeugnisse wie Bücher, Zeitschriften, Magazine oder dgl., durch Klebebinden von Druckbogen im Rückenbereich eines gebildeten Buchblocks oder durch Heften der Falzkanten von rittlings gesammelten Druckbogen mittels Klammern einer beidseits sequentiell digital bedruckten Papierbahn oder Einzelbogen. D.h. die Herstellung nach der oben beschriebenen Art erfolgt in der Reihenfolge der Seiten eines Druckerzeugnisses.The invention relates to a method for at least partially clock-bound production of bound printed products such as books, magazines, magazines or the like., By perfect binding of sheets in the back portion of a book block formed or by stapling the folded edges of astride collected sheet by means of staples on both sides sequentially digitally printed web or sheet , That the production in the manner described above is performed in the order of the pages of a printed product.

Ein Verfahren dieser Art ist durch den vorveröffentlichten Prospekt "Your Partner in Print Finishing" der C.P. Bourg S.A. NV, Ottignies) Belgien bekannt geworden.A process of this kind is described by the prepublished prospectus "Your Partner in Print Finishing" of C.P. Bourg S.A. NV, Ottignies) Belgium.

In einem Prospekt "Print-on-demand books with IBM Infoprint solutions" bieten IBM UK Ltd und Ireland Ltd Maschinen zur Durchführung des eingangs beschriebenen Verfahrens an.In a brochure entitled "Print-on-demand books with IBM Infoprint solutions", IBM UK Ltd and Ireland Ltd offer machines for carrying out the method described at the outset.

Die vorliegende Erfindung hat sich zur Aufgabe gestellt, ein Verfahren der eingangs beschriebenen Art zu schaffen, mit welchem nach dem Bedrucken einer Papierbahn oder Einzelbogen sowohl klebegebundene als auch auf einem Sattel klammergeheftete Druckerzeugnisse gefertigt werden können.The present invention has for its object to provide a method of the type described above, with which after printing a paper web or single sheets both bonded as well as stapled on a saddle printed matter can be made.

Erfindungsgemäss wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass die bedruckte Papierbahn resp. Einzelbogen in Druckbogen quergeschnitten und quergefalzt werden und im anschliessenden schritt die Druckbogen wahlweise einem Klammerhefter oder zu einem gegenüberliegenden Klebebinder über Förderpfade geführt werden die rechtwinklig zur Forderrichtung angeordnet sind.
Der Anwender dieses Verfahrens wird in die Lage versetzt, eine höhere Produktionsleistung erbringen zu können, die unter günstigen Bedingungen ausgeübt werden kann.According to the invention, this object is achieved in that the printed paper web resp. Single sheets are transversely cut into sheets and cross folded and in the subsequent step, the sheets are either a stapler or an opposite perfect binder on delivery paths are arranged at right angles to the Forderrichtung.
The user of this method will be able to provide a higher production output that can be performed under favorable conditions.

Es ist vorteilhaft, wenn für kleinformatige Druckerzeugnisse die bedruckte Papierbahn vor dem Querschneiden längsgefalzt wird, so dass das Druckerzeugnis eine doppelte Blattzahl aufweist.It is advantageous if, for small-format printed products, the printed paper web is longitudinally folded before the transverse cutting, so that the printed product has a double number of sheets.

Vorzugsweise können zur Optimierung der Seitenzahl eines Druckerzeugnisses die quergefalzten Druckbogen vor dem Klebebinde- oder Klammerheftprozess mit einem Längsfalz versehen werden.Preferably, in order to optimize the page number of a printed product, the transversely folded printed sheets can be provided with a longitudinal fold before the adhesive binding or stapling process.

Es ist insbesondere für Druckerzeugnisse mit kleinem Format günstig, wenn der Längsfalz mittels Trichter oder Pflug hergestellt wird.It is particularly favorable for small format print products when the longitudinal fold is made by means of a hopper or plow.

Zweckmässigerweise wird der Querfalz mittels Schwert erstellt, weil eine Schwertfalzmaschine eine höhere Produktionsleistung bei der geforderten Qualität erlaubt.Conveniently, the transverse fold is created by means of a sword, because a Schwertfalzmaschine allows higher production capacity at the required quality.

Der nach dem Querfalzen vorgesehene Längsfalz wird vorteilhaft mittels Schwert gefertigt, welches die Ausrichtung der Druckbogen für das anschliessende Sammelheften oder Klebebinden begünstigt.The longitudinal fold provided after the transverse folding is advantageously produced by means of a sword, which favors the alignment of the printed sheets for the subsequent saddle stitching or adhesive binding.

Wahlweise könnte dieser Längsfalz auf dem Förderpfad für das Sammelheften über eine Durchlauffalzeinrichtung erstellt werden, sodass sich ein nachträgliches Oeffnen des Druckbogens erübrigt.Optionally, this longitudinal fold could be created on the conveyor path for the saddle stitching via a continuous folding device, so that a subsequent opening of the printed sheet is unnecessary.

Damit kein nachträgliches Falzen erfolgen muss, können die Druckbogen für das Klammerheften rittlings zu Zwischenprodukten gesammelt werden.So that no subsequent folding must take place, the sheets for stapling staples can be collected astride intermediate products.

Damit eine Aenderung des Formates eines Druckbogens und/oder der Lage eines Falzes ohne Fehlprodukt entstehen kann, erfolgt der Aenderungsvorgang im zeitlichen Abstand zwischen zwei sich unterscheidenden Druckbogen.So that a change in the format of a printed sheet and / or the position of a fold can occur without faulty product, the Aenderungsvorgang takes place at a time interval between two differing sheet.

Vorteilhaft erfolgt die Aenderung während laufender Vorrichtung, sodass kein Produktionsunterbruch entsteht.Advantageously, the change takes place while the device is running, so that no production interruption occurs.
