Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a device for operating a Tempering device in the inking unit or dampening unit of an offset printing machine.
  • inking units are provided for the application of printing ink.
  • inking unit temperature control allows the ink processed in the inking unit to be heated or cooled as needed during the printing process.
  • tempering for Lackumlaufsysteme or Lackwerktemperierung in coating facilities of finishing machines or for the so-called inline coating in conjunction with offset and flexographic printing machines can be designed in the form of sheet or web presses. Tempering devices have also become known for dampening units on offset printing machines.
  • the temperature control devices are often designed according to the heat exchanger principle.
  • a so-called tempering medium is preferably passed through the interior of one of the rollers of the inking unit or the coating device.
  • a liquid medium is used in an open or closed temperature control.
  • the temperature control medium can be used for heating or for cooling or for heating and cooling.
  • the temperature control is cooled by a refrigeration unit, for example by means of a heat exchanger or heated by a heating element or a heat exchanger.
  • the temperature control and temperature sensor in the respective printing press or in the coating device is carried out by temperature adjustment of the medium or the amount of flow.
  • EP-A-0383295 discloses a tempering device in the inking unit of a printing machine with a sensor for detecting the color density
  • the tempering medium consists of a mixture of water and additives to protect the temperature control system in the printing press.
  • the additives serve especially the rust protection. But there are also other types of additives used.
  • the tempering medium is usually after prolonged use by the Specification of fixed change intervals, i. depending on the time of use, replaced. It is also possible, after stopping the printing press and opening of the tempering system, by means of manual control of the pH value or a specially obtained conductance the state of the To determine tempering and this example. when it falls below one minimum value of corrosion inhibitor or exchange.
  • Temperiermedium in the field of engine gearbox in the lubricating oil of the Machine drive can do that Temperiermedium in the field of engine gearbox in the lubricating oil of the Machine drive and thus reduce its function or even completely override.
  • the object of the invention is therefore an apparatus and a method to manage that in printing machines with tempering damage through Exiting tempering safely prevented.
  • the temperature control circuit is on the machine side and / or aggregate side Detector or sensor, for example a pH probe and / or a Conductance probe used depending on the tempering medium used.
  • the detector or sensor detects the composition of the Temperiermediums and takes into account its constituent parts. This relates to all substances in the form of protective agents, e.g. Corrosion inhibitor, and also water in the context of each of them certain mixing ratios.
  • the sensor constantly or cyclically measures the actual value in the temperature control medium and compares the entered required setpoint value via a controller.
  • the Setpoint can be stored in the machine control and can be from Be specified by the manufacturer.
  • the setpoint can also be operational specified and entered and stored by the operator, e.g. depending on local water quality. When falling below the setpoint takes place a corresponding error message.
  • the required control can z. In the Machine control station or in the temperature control unit to be installed. A Acoustic or optical indication of the error message can also be made. At the same time the value is logged or via data exchange to the Service Center or the machine manufacturer.
  • the temperature control medium can then be exchanged or refreshed by the addition of protective agent during the next cyclical maintenance.
  • the tempering system can also be tested with regard to tightness or fill level via a pressure sensor, for example a pressure switch, and thus the tempering system can be monitored for leaks in the temperature control medium cycle. In this way, above all, an uncontrolled discharge of tempering medium within the printing machine is detected.
  • a pressure sensor for example a pressure switch
  • the effort of the components used for this purpose is in terms of Scope of this possible machine damage relatively low.
  • One Damage to the printing press due to the penetration of tempering medium in the oil circuit of the printing press can be completely prevented in this way or at least be recognized early.
  • protection means may e.g. via dosing pumps with Reservoir also actively dosed depending on the measured value of the sensor become.
  • By logging the measured values is at machine damage an up-to-date inventory of the maintenance status for the Machine manufacturer possible. This can affect warranty issues.
  • Simple service work on the tempering devices are now over Diagnosis system, also a remote diagnosis system, possible. Festivals and times Scheduled and thus also expensive change intervals can be omitted. It is Also a trend display regarding hints for preventive maintenance possible.
  • Turbidity sensor the bacterial contamination of the medium are detected.
  • the temperature control becomes active with respect to the remaining Corrosion protection and accumulated operational pollution supervised. Fixed change intervals are ecologically meaningful, since not the actual use state of the tempering is detected.
  • An advantage of the invention is that a needs-based maintenance means Remote diagnosis or via data transfer is possible.
  • the condition of the Temperature control system can be monitored at any time by display on the control desk become.
  • the documentation of the actual state of the temperature control, also in Regarding the required maintenance of the printing press can be used in the analysis of Damage claims and assessment of warranty claims.
  • For the maintenance of the machine condition is a precautionary maintenance possible.
