Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Falzeinheit für Rollenrotationsoffsetdruckmaschinen mit kombinierter Zeitungs- und Selected Commercial-Produktion gemäß Anspruch 1.The invention relates to a folding unit for web offset printing presses Combined newspaper and selected commercial production according to claim 1.

Der Rollenoffsetdruck lässt sich in folgende Hauptgruppen unterteilen:

  • Rollenoffsetdruck für den Zeitungsdruck (Coldset)
  • Rollenoffsetdruck für den Illustrationsdruck (Heatset)
  • Rollenoffsetdruck für die Semicommercial-Produktion
Web offset printing can be divided into the following main groups:
  • Web offset printing for newspaper printing (coldset)
  • Web offset printing for illustration printing (heatset)
  • Web offset printing for semi-commercial production

Der Begriff Semicommercial-Produktion ist auch unter dem synonymen Begriff Selected Commercial-Produktion bekannt. Im nachfolgenden wird nur der Begriff Selected Commercial verwendet.
Während der Zeitungsdruck charakterisiert werden kann durch das Verdrucken von Coldset-Farben, ist das Merkmal des Illustrationsdruckes die Verarbeitung von Heatset-Farben.The term semi-commercial production is also known as selected commercial production. In the following only the term Selected Commercial is used.
While newspaper printing can be characterized by the printing of coldset inks, the characteristic of illustration printing is the processing of heatset inks.

Die Semicommercial-Produktion bzw. Selected Commercial-Produktion soll den Produktionsbereich zwischen dem Zeitungs- und dem Illustrationsdruck schließen. Der noch relativ neue Begriff ist entstanden aus der sich ständig erweiterten Palette an Druckprodukten und deren vielfältigen Qualitätsansprüchen. Es besteht im Weiteren aber auch ein Zusammenhang zwischen dem sich ständig erweiternden Angebot an beidseitig gestrichenen oder pigmentierten Papieren und der Selected Commercial-Produktion. Im reinen Zeitungsdruck (Coldset) werden saugfähige, schnell wegschlagende Naturpapiere verarbeitet, welche die Druckfarbe ausschließlich physikalisch trocknen lassen, es wird keine thermische Trocknungsunterstützung benötigt.
Sobald aber Papiere zur Verarbeitung kommen, die etwas Strich aufweisen, oder Papiere, die durch Satinage eine Verdichtung erfahren haben, ist vielfach bereits eine thermische Unterstützung der Trocknung notwendig, um ein Abschmieren oder Ablegen zu verhindern und die Bahn überhaupt im Falzwerk verarbeiten zu können. Die Selected Commercial-Produktion ist gekennzeichnet vor allem durch die Verarbeitung von Heatset-Farben und entsprechenden Papieren zum Einen, sowie zum Anderen einer größeren Vielfalt an Möglichkeiten zur Erzeugung von verschiedensten Druckprodukten infolge möglicher Falzvarianten zur Verarbeitung der im Heatset bzw. und/oder im Coldset bedruckten Papierbahnen.
Selected Commercial-Produktion heißt aber auch eine Kombination von Coldset- und Heatsetdruck, wobei die Möglichkeit einer Zusammenführung der im Coldset bzw. im Heatset bedruckten Bahnen zu einem Druckerzeugnis besteht, aber auch nur Coldset - bzw. Heatset - Produktionen geplant werden können.The semi-commercial production or selected commercial production is intended to close the production area between newspaper and illustration printing. The still relatively new term originated from the constantly expanding range of printed products and their diverse quality requirements. However, there is also a connection between the constantly expanding range of coated or pigmented papers on both sides and selected commercial production. In pure newspaper printing (coldset), absorbent, quickly setting off natural papers are processed, which only allow the printing ink to dry physically, no thermal drying support is required.
However, as soon as papers with a line or paper that have been compacted by satin are processed, thermal support for the drying is often necessary to prevent smearing or depositing and to be able to process the web at all in the folder. The Selected Commercial production is characterized above all by the processing of heatset inks and corresponding papers, on the one hand, and on the other hand, a greater variety of options for producing a wide variety of printed products due to possible fold variants for processing in the heatset or and / or in the coldset printed paper webs.
Selected commercial production also means a combination of coldset and heatset printing, whereby it is possible to merge the webs printed in the coldset or heatset into one printed product, but only coldset or heatset productions can be planned.

An Zeitungsdruckmaschinen mit der Möglichkeit zusätzlich zur Zeitungsproduktion (vorzugsweise in Coldset), in weiteren Produktionsarten Druckerzeugnisse herzustellen, wie beispielsweise Selected Commercials (vorzugsweise in Heatset, aber auch in Coldset oder in kombinierter Coldset-/Heatset-Produktion) kommt in der Regel ein für die Zeitungsproduktion typisches Falzwerk zum Einsatz.
Die Möglichkeiten zur Herstellung von Falzprodukten hängen im starken Maße von der Ausführung des eingesetzten Falzwerkes ab, d. h. dass für typische Zeitungsfalzwerke die Möglichkeiten zur Produktion in unterschiedlichen Falzarten und Falzvarianten aufgrund der technischen Charakteristik eines Zeitungsfalzwerkes begrenzt sind.
Nach dem Stand der Technik werden oben genannte Zeitungsfalzwerke zur Realisierung sowohl von Zeitungs- wie auch Selected Commercial-Produktionen aufwendig mit Einrichtungen versehen, welche insbesondere für die Selected Commercial-Produktionen Verbesserungen in den Falzmöglichkeiten und der Falzqualität erreichen sollen. Nachteil ist, dass sich oben genannte Einrichtungen zur Verbesserung der Falzqualität bei Selected Commercial-Produktion nachteilig bei reinen Zeitungsproduktionen auswirken und die Umstellung des Falzwerkes bei Produktionswechsel erschweren.
In einer weiteren Ausführung nach dem Stand der Technik werden an oben genannten Zeitungsdruckmaschinen mit der Möglichkeit zur Herstellung von Selected Commercials mindestens zwei Falzwerke mit dem Ziel eingesetzt, je ein Falzwerk für eine entsprechende Produktion (ein Falzwerk für Heatset- , ein weiteres für Coldset - Produktionen) zu verwenden. Nachteil ist, dass in diesem Fall zwei Falzwerke benötigt werden, wobei ein Falzwerk speziell zur Zeitungsproduktion und das andere nur für Selected Commercial-Produktion benutzt wird. Dies erfordert einen der Falzwerkanzahl entsprechenden Platzbedarf sowie höhere Aufwände an Bahnleiteinrichtungen und im Weiteren mehr Bauraum für die gesamte Druckanlage.On newspaper printing presses with the option of producing printed products in other production types, in addition to newspaper production (preferably in coldset), such as selected commercials (preferably in heatset, but also in coldset or in combined coldset / heatset production), this is generally the case for Newspaper production typical folding unit used.
The possibilities for the production of folding products depend to a large extent on the design of the folding unit used, which means that for typical newspaper folding units the possibilities for production in different folding types and folding variants are limited due to the technical characteristics of a newspaper folding unit.
According to the state of the art, the newspaper folding units mentioned above are provided with facilities for the realization of both newspaper and selected commercial productions, which are intended to achieve improvements in the folding possibilities and the folding quality, in particular for the selected commercial productions. The disadvantage is that the above-mentioned facilities for improving the folding quality in selected commercial production have a disadvantageous effect in pure newspaper production and make the conversion of the folding unit more difficult when changing production.
In a further embodiment according to the prior art, at least two folding units are used on the above-mentioned newspaper printing presses with the possibility of producing selected commercials, with the aim of one folding unit each for a corresponding production (one folding unit for heatset and another for coldset productions ) to use. The disadvantage is that two folding units are required in this case, one folding unit being used specifically for newspaper production and the other only for selected commercial production. This requires a space requirement that corresponds to the number of folding units, as well as higher expenditure on web guiding devices and, in addition, more installation space for the entire printing system.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde oben genannte Nachteile zu beseitigen und eine für wechselnde Produktionen einfach umzustellende Falzeinheit mit geringem Bauraum zu schaffen, mittels welcher Zeitungs- und Selected Commercial-Produkte hergestellt werden können.The invention is based on the object of eliminating the disadvantages mentioned above and a folding unit that is easy to convert for changing productions to create little space, by means of which newspaper and selected commercial products can be produced.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale im kennzeichnenden Teil des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.This task is characterized by the features in the characterizing part of the Claim 1 solved.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind den Unteransprüchen in Verbindung mit der Beschreibung zu entnehmen.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are related to the subclaims with the description.

Von Vorteil ist, dass mittels der vorgeschlagenen Falzeinheit sowohl reine Zeitungsfalzprodukte mit typischer Charakteristik, als auch Selected Commercials von jeweils variabler Produktbeschaffenheit mit Zeitungsdruckmaschinen hergestellt werden können.
Zeitungsprodukte sind in der Regel charakterisiert durch Broadsheet- oder Tabloid-Format, fixe Signaturbreite, hohe Seitenzahl, Coldset, Falzqualität nach IFRA.
IFRA ist die Abkürzung von "INCA-FIEJ Research Association".
Selected Commercial-Produkte sind charakterisiert durch verschiedene Falzarten, variable Signaturbreiten, geringe bis mittlere Seitenzahlen, in Coldset- oder Heatset- oder kombinierter Coldset-/Heatset-Produktion gedruckt. Die Falzqualität liegt im Grenzbereich zwischen Zeitung (IFRA) und derer der Illustration (nach FOGRA).It is advantageous that the proposed folding unit can be used to produce pure newspaper folding products with typical characteristics as well as selected commercials of variable product quality with newspaper printing machines.
Newspaper products are generally characterized by broadsheet or tabloid format, fixed signature width, high number of pages, coldset, fold quality according to IFRA.
IFRA is the abbreviation of "INCA-FIEJ Research Association".
Selected commercial products are characterized by different fold types, variable signature widths, small to medium page numbers, printed in coldset or heatset or combined coldset / heatset production. The fold quality lies in the border area between newspaper (IFRA) and illustration (according to FOGRA).

Broadsheet ist die Bezeichnung für eine Zeitungsseite bzw. für ein Zeitungsformat im Rollenoffset-Zeitungsdruck. Tabloid- oder Magazin ist die Bezeichnung für eine Magazinseite im Rollenoffsetdruck-Zeitungsdruck.Broadsheet is the name for a newspaper page or for a newspaper format in Web offset newspaper printing. Tabloid or magazine is the name for one Magazine page in web offset newspaper printing.

Bedeutungsvoll ist, dass mittels der vorgeschlagenen Falzeinheit mit oben genannten Zeitungsdruckmaschinen vor allem für die Produktion von Selected Commercials Falzprodukte mit in der Illustration üblichen Falzarten realisiert werden können. Beispielsweise Falzprodukte mit 1. Längsfalz, 1.Querfalz, 2. Querfalz-Doppelparallel, 2. Querfalz-Delta, 1. Querfalz + 2. Längsfalz, 1.+ 2. Querfalz-Delta + 2. Längsfalz sowie unter Verwendung eines Cutters Falzprodukte mit nur einem 1. Längsfalz.
Besonders hervorzuheben ist, dass mittels der Falzeinheit die Möglichkeit besteht, in das Falzwerk einlaufende Papierstränge von hoher Breitenvariabilität bedingt durch die Verwendung eines verschiebbaren Falztrichters zu verarbeiten.
Somit werden mittels der erfindungsgemäßen Falzeinheit die Produktionsmöglichkeiten der Zeitungsdruckmaschine insbesondere für Füllproduktionen außerhalb der typischen Zeitungsproduktion erweitert.
Ein weiterer Vorteil ist, dass der Aufbau der Falzeinheit eine effektive Ausnutzung des Raumes ermöglicht und zur Verminderung von Platzkosten einer Druckmaschinenanlage beiträgt.It is important that the proposed folding unit with the newspaper presses mentioned above can be used to produce folding products with folding types that are common in the illustration, especially for the production of selected commercials. For example, fold products with 1st longitudinal fold, 1st transverse fold, 2nd transverse fold double parallel, 2nd transverse fold delta, 1st transverse fold + 2nd longitudinal fold, 1st + 2nd transverse fold delta + 2nd longitudinal fold as well as using a cutter folding products with only a 1st longitudinal fold.
Particularly noteworthy is that the folding unit offers the possibility of processing paper strands entering the folding unit that are highly variable in width due to the use of a displaceable former.
Thus, by means of the folding unit according to the invention, the production possibilities of the newspaper printing press are expanded, in particular for filler productions outside the typical newspaper production.
Another advantage is that the construction of the folding unit enables effective use of the space and helps to reduce the space costs of a printing press system.

Ein weiterer Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Falzeinheit ist es, dass die erreichbare Falzqualität für Selected Commercials höherer Qualität, insbesondere beispielsweise bei anschließender buchbinderischer Weiterverarbeitung, ausreicht.
Ein weiterer Vorteil ist, dass die Falzeinheit sowohl den Anforderungen der Zeitungsproduktion entspricht, als auch optimal auf spezielle Selected Commercial-Produktionen einricht- bzw. umstellbar ist. Another advantage of the folding unit according to the invention is that the folding quality that can be achieved is sufficient for selected commercials of higher quality, in particular, for example, during subsequent bookbinding further processing.
Another advantage is that the folding unit both meets the requirements of newspaper production and can be optimally set up or converted to special Selected Commercial productions.

Die für Zeitungsdruckmaschinen vorgeschlagene Falzeinheit für Selected Commercial besteht aus mindestens einem Illustrationsfalzwerk in Kombination mit mindestens einem Zeitungsfalzwerk, wobei die derart aufgebaute Falzeinheit aufgrund Ihrer Konfiguration sowohl für eine reine Zeitungsproduktion wie auch für spezielle Selected Commercial-Produktionen geeignet bzw. vorgesehen ist. Die Falzwerke werden ihrer konstruktiven Charakteristik entsprechend zur jeweiligen Produktion - entweder Zeitungs- oder Selected Commercial-Produktionen - benutzt .The folding unit for Selected proposed for newspaper presses Commercial consists of at least one illustration folder in combination with at least one newspaper folding unit, the folding unit constructed in this way due to your configuration for both pure newspaper production and for special selected commercial productions are suitable or intended. The Folders are designed according to their design characteristics Production - either newspaper or selected commercial productions - used.

Vorzugsweise wird bei Selected Commercial-Produktionen mit hoher Druckqualität die Falzqualität entsprechend hoch sein und für diesen Druckauftrag das Illustrationsfalzwerk zum Einsatz kommen, es ist aber ebenfalls die Kombination von Zeitungsdruckqualität - Druckqualität geringer als bei Selected Commercial - mit hoher Falzqualität und umgekehrt möglich.Preferred is for selected commercial productions with high print quality the folding quality should be high and that for this print job Illustration folder are used, but it is also the combination of Newspaper print quality - print quality lower than Selected Commercial - with high folding quality and vice versa possible.

Hinweise zur Erläuterung von Zeitungs-, Selected Commercial- und Akzidenz-/Illustrationsqualität sind im KBA-Report 12/1999, Seite 89 des Druckmaschinenherstellers König & Bauer AG zu finden.Notes on the explanation of newspaper, selected commercial and commercial / illustration quality are in the KBA Report 12/1999, page 89 of the Printing machine manufacturer König & Bauer AG.

In vorteilhafter Weise ist die mit der erfindungsgemäßen Falzeinheit ausgestattete Zeitungsdruckmaschine neben der Zeitungsproduktion - bedingt durch die erreichbare Druck- wie auch Falzqualität - auch zur Herstellung von Druckerzeugnissen einsetzbar, welche nach dem Stand der Technik bisher von Illustrationsmaschinen hergestellt wurden und die dem unteren bis mittleren Qualitätsbereich der Illustration zugeordnet werden.
Die zur Umrüstung der Falzwerke von Zeitungs- auf Selected Commercial-Produktion erforderliche Rüstzeit kann deutlich verkürzt werden, da sich die Aufwände für den Produktionswechsel lediglich auf die Inbetriebnahme des für den Produktionsauftrag erforderlichen Falzwerkes reduzieren.Advantageously, the newspaper printing press equipped with the folding unit according to the invention can be used in addition to newspaper production - due to the achievable printing and folding quality - also for the production of printed products which have been produced by illustration machines according to the prior art and which are in the lower to medium quality range associated with the illustration.
The set-up time required to convert the folding units from newspaper to selected commercial production can be significantly reduced because the effort for the change of production is reduced to the commissioning of the folding unit required for the production order.

In einer ersten Ausführungsvariante werden einer Zeitungsdruckanlage mit der Möglichkeit zur Selected Commercial Produktion zwei Falzeinheiten zugeordnet, wobei in einer Falzeinheit ein Illustrationsfalzwerk und in der anderen Falzeinheit ein Zeitungsfalzwerk angeordnet ist. Jede Falzeinheit besteht aus Falzwerk und falzwerktypischen Falzaufbau (Falztrichter, Wendeinheit etc.), wobei die Falzeinheiten in typischer Weise nebeneinander in Maschinenlängsachse angeordet werden.In a first embodiment, a newspaper printing system with the Possibility for selected commercial production assigned to two folding units, an illustration folder in one folder and a folder in the other Newspaper folder is arranged. Each folder consists of folder and folding structure typical of the folding mechanism (folding former, turning unit etc.), the Folding units are typically arranged side by side in the machine longitudinal axis become.

In einer weiteren Ausführungsvariante sind das Illustrationsfalzwerk und das Zeitungsfalzwerk in einer gemeinsamen Falzeinheit mit dem Ziel den Raumbedarf für die Gesamtmaschine zu verringern angeordnet, wobei beiden Falzwerken lediglich ein gemeinsamer Falzaufbau (Falztrichter, Wendeinheit etc.) zugeordnet ist:

  • a) als Doppel-Falzwerk:
  • Beide Falzwerke stehen hintereinander in einer Linie, die Falzauslage des hinteren Falzwerkes unterläuft das vordere Falzwerk, wobei in vorteilhafter Weise das hintere Falzwerk ein Zeitungsfalzwerk und das vordere Falzwerk wegen der standardmäßig vorhandenen Einrichtung für den 2. Längsfalz ein Illustrationsfalzwerk ist.
  • Die Falzeinheit weist einen Falzaufbau für beide Falzwerke auf, wobei in vorteilhafter Weise der erste Falztrichter oberhalb des Doppel-Falzwerkes in illustrationstypischer Ausführung, beispielsweise ein verschiebbarer Falztrichter, verwendet wird und weitere in vertikaler Fortfolge benötigte Falztrichter zeitungstypisch, d.h. nicht verschiebbar, ausgeführt werden.
  • b) als sog. Huckepack-Falzwerk:
  • Die Falzwerke stehen übereinander, d.h. sie sind vertikal gestockt mit einem geringen Versatz der vertikalen Strangeinlauflinien zueinander um möglichst geringe Umlenkungen im Stranglauf nach dem 1. Längsfalz zum jeweiligen Falzwerk zu erreichen, wobei in vorteilhafter Weise das obere Falzwerk ein Illustrationsfalzwerk und das untere Falzwerk wegen seiner geringen Bauhöhe ein Zeitungsfalzwerk ist.
  • Eine Möglichkeit für einen optionalen 2. Querfalz im Zeitungsfalzwerk existiert in diesem Fall nicht.
  • Die Falzeinheit ist mit einem Falzaufbau für beide Falzwerke ausgestattet, wobei in vorteilhafter Weise der erste Falztrichter oberhalb des Huckepack-Falzwerkes in illustrationstypischer Ausführung, d.h. ein verschiebbarer Falztrichter, verwendet wird und weitere optionale Falztrichter in vertikaler bzw. horizontaler Fortfolge zeitungstypisch ausgeführt werden, das untere Falzwerk kann in dieser Variante optional mit einer Einrichtung für den 2.Längsfalz ausgerüstet werden.
    • In a further embodiment variant, the illustration folding unit and the newspaper folding unit are arranged in a common folding unit with the aim of reducing the space requirement for the entire machine, with both folding units only being assigned a common folding structure (folding former, turning unit, etc.):
  • a) as a double folder:
  • Both folding units are in a row, the folding delivery of the rear folding unit passes underneath the front folding unit, whereby the rear folding unit is advantageously a newspaper folding unit and the front folding unit is an illustration folding unit because of the standard device for the second longitudinal fold.
  • The folding unit has a folding structure for both folding units, the first former above the double folding unit in an illustration-typical design, for example a displaceable folding former, being used in an advantageous manner, and further folding former required in vertical succession are carried out in the manner of a newspaper, that is to say not displaceably.
  • b) as a so-called piggyback folder:
  • The folding units are one above the other, i.e. they are vertically stacked with a slight offset of the vertical strand entry lines to each other in order to achieve the least possible deflection in the strand running after the first longitudinal fold to the respective folding unit, the upper folding unit advantageously being an illustration folding unit and the lower folding unit because of it low height is a newspaper folder.
  • In this case, there is no possibility for an optional second cross fold in the newspaper folding unit.
  • The folding unit is equipped with a folding structure for both folding units, whereby the first folding former above the piggyback folding unit in an illustration-typical design, i.e. a sliding folding former, is advantageously used, and further optional folding former are executed in vertical or horizontal order, the lower one In this variant, the folding unit can optionally be equipped with a device for the 2nd longitudinal fold.

    • Merkmale Zeitungsfalzwerk :Features of newspaper folder:

    Nach dem Stand der Technik ist ein Zeitungsfalzwerk ein Punkturfalzwerk, konzipiert zur Produktion von Falzprodukten im 1.Querfalz mit Seitenzahlen im Bereich von vorwiegend 16 bis 96 Seiten Broadsheet bzw. 32 bis 192 Seiten Tabloid und optional im 2. Längsfalz mit Seitenzahlen im Bereich von ca. 16 bis 64 Seiten Magazin.
    Die Signaturabmessungen der typischen Falzprodukte sind von geringer Variabilität bezüglich der Breite der Falzprodukte gekennzeichnet.
    Die mit Zeitungsfalzwerken erreichbaren Falztoleranzen genügen den Anforderungen nach den IFRA-Standards.
    Ein Zeitungsfalzwerk erreicht nach dem Stand der Technik eine minimale Falztoleranz im Falzrücken von +/- 0,8mm ohne Falzhilfe (Perforation etc.) bzw. +/- 0,5mm mit Falzhilfe.
    Zeitungsfalzwerke sind vorzugsweise geeignet zur Verarbeitung von im Coldset bedruckten Papierbahnen.
    Für Selected-Commercial-Produktionen können Zeitungsfalzwerke auch im Heatset bedruckte Papierbahnen verarbeiten.
    Für Selected-Commercial-Produktionen können Zeitungsfalzwerke optional auch mit einem 2.Querfalz (nach dem Stand der Technik nur als Doppelparallel) ausgerüstet werden.     According to the state of the art, a newspaper folding unit is a pin folding unit, designed for the production of folding products in the 1st transverse fold with page numbers in the range of predominantly 16 to 96 pages of broadsheet or 32 to 192 pages of tabloid and optionally in the 2nd longitudinal fold with page numbers in the range of approx 16 to 64 pages of magazine.
    The signature dimensions of the typical folded products are characterized by little variability in the width of the folded products.
    The folding tolerances that can be achieved with newspaper folding units meet the requirements of the IFRA standards.
    According to the state of the art, a newspaper folding mechanism achieves a minimum folding tolerance of + / - 0.8mm without folding aid (perforation etc.) or + / - 0.5mm with folding aid.
    Newspaper folding units are preferably suitable for processing paper webs printed in coldset.
    For selected commercial productions, newspaper folding machines can also process printed paper webs in the heatset.
    For selected commercial productions, newspaper folding units can optionally be equipped with a second cross fold (according to the state of the art, only as a double parallel).

    Sämtliche Baugruppen des Zeitungsfalzwerkes sind ausgelegt für die Verarbeitung hoher Seitenzahlen (bis 96 Seiten Broadsheet).
    Die Anordnung produktführender Elemente - beispielsweise Punkturen, Bänder, Gleitelemente - längs der Breite der zu verarbeitenden Falzprodukte ist weitestgehend asymmetrisch, wegen dem im Zeitungsdruck typischen festen Falztrichter. Die Trichterspitze hat einen fixen Abstand bezüglich den Falzwerkwänden, d.h. die Lage des 1. Längsfalzes am Falzprodukt ist immer fix und unabhängig von der Breite der zu verarbeitenden Papierbahn. Die Lage der dem 1. Längsfalz gegenüber liegenden offenen Seite am Falzprodukt dagegen ist abhängig von der Breite der über den Falztrichter gefalzten Papierbahn, wobei der Betrag der Änderung der Lage der offenen Seite gleich dem halben Betrag der Änderung der Breite der verarbeiteten Papierbahn entspricht.
    Für Selected-Commercial-Produktionen können Zeitungsfalzwerke optional auch mit einem verschiebbaren Falztrichter ausgerüstet werden.    All components of the newspaper folder are designed for processing large numbers of pages (up to 96 pages of broadsheet).
    The arrangement of product-carrying elements - for example punctures, tapes, sliding elements - along the width of the folded products to be processed is largely asymmetrical, because of the fixed former, which is typical in newspaper printing. The former tip has a fixed distance with respect to the folder walls, ie the position of the 1st longitudinal fold on the folded product is always fixed and independent of the width of the paper web to be processed. The position of the open side opposite the first longitudinal fold on the folded product, however, depends on the width of the paper web folded over the former, the amount of change in the position of the open side being equal to half the amount of change in the width of the paper web being processed.
    For selected commercial productions, newspaper folding units can also be optionally equipped with a sliding former.

    Merkmale Illustrationsfalzwerk :Features of the illustration folder:

    Nach dem Stand der Technik ist ein Illustrationsfalzwerk ein Punkturfalzwerk oder ein punkturloses Falzwerk, konzipiert zur Produktion von Falzprodukten im 1. Querfalz mit Seitenzahlen im Bereich von vorwiegend 8 bis ca. 48 Seiten A2 (Broadsheet) bzw. 16 bis ca. 96 Seiten A3 (Tabloid), sowie im 2. Längsfalz mit Seitenzahlen im Bereich von ca. 8 bis 48 Seiten A4 (Magazin) und optional im 2. Querfalz mit Seitenzahlen im Bereich von 8 bis ca. 48 Seiten A5 als Doppelparallel bzw. von 6 bis ca. 24 Seiten als Delta, wie auch mit der Möglichkeit zur Verarbeitung von im 2. Querfalz gefalzter Produkte im
    2. Längsfalz.
    Die Signaturabmessungen der typischen Falzprodukte sind von großer Variabilität bezüglich der Breite der Falzprodukte gekennzeichnet.
    Die mit Illustrationsfalzwerken erreichbaren Falztoleranzen genügen den Anforderungen nach den FOGRA-Standards.     According to the state of the art, an illustration folder is a pin folder or a pinless folder, designed for the production of fold products in the 1st cross fold with page numbers in the range from predominantly 8 to approx. 48 pages A2 (broadsheet) or 16 to approx. 96 pages A3 ( Tabloid), and in the 2nd longitudinal fold with page numbers in the range from approx. 8 to 48 pages A4 (magazine) and optionally in the 2nd cross fold with page numbers in the range from 8 to approx. 48 pages A5 as double parallel or from 6 to approx. 24 pages as a delta, as well as with the possibility of processing products folded in the 2nd cross fold in
    2. Longitudinal fold.
    The signature dimensions of the typical folded products are characterized by great variability in the width of the folded products.
    The folding tolerances that can be achieved with illustration folding units meet the requirements of FOGRA standards.

    Ein Illustrationsfalzwerk nach dem Stand der Technik erreicht eine maximale Falztoleranz im Falzrücken von +/- 0.5mm ohne Falzhilfe (Perforation etc.) bzw. +/- 0.3mm mit Falzhilfe.
    Illustrationsfalzwerke sind vorzugsweise geeignet zur Verarbeitung von im Heatset bedruckten Papierbahnen.
    Optional besteht die Möglichkeit auch im Coldset bedruckte Papierbahnen zu verarbeiten.
    Sämtliche Baugruppen des Illustrationsfalzwerk sind ausgelegt für die Verarbeitung von Falzprodukten mit hoher Genauigkeit.
    Die Anordnung produktführender Elemente - beispielsweise Punkturen, Greifer, Bänder, Gleitelemente - längs der Breite der zu verarbeitenden Falzprodukte ist weitestgehend symmetrisch, wegen dem im Illustrationsdruck typischen verschiebbaren Falztrichter. Die Trichterspitze ist längs der Papierbahnlaufrichtung verschiebbar und hat somit einen veränderbaren Abstand bezüglich den Falzwerkwänden, d.h. die Lage des 1. Längsfalzes sowie der dem 1. Längsfalz gegenüber liegenden offenen Seite am Falzprodukt ist variabel und abhängig von der Breite der zu verarbeitenden Papierbahn, wobei der verschiebbare Falztrichter das Mittel dazu ist, um eine optimale Produktführung der Falzprodukte hinsichtlich der in der Breite des Falzwerkes angeordneten Produktführungselemente durch das Falzwerk zu ermöglichen.    A state-of-the-art illustration folder achieves a maximum folding tolerance of + / - 0.5mm without folding aid (perforation etc.) or + / - 0.3mm with folding aid.
    Illustration folders are preferably suitable for processing paper webs printed in the heatset.
    Optionally, it is also possible to process paper webs printed in the coldset.
    All components of the illustration folder are designed for the processing of folded products with high accuracy.
    The arrangement of product-carrying elements - for example punctures, grippers, belts, sliding elements - along the width of the folded products to be processed is largely symmetrical, because of the movable former, which is typical in illustration printing. The funnel tip can be moved along the direction of the paper web and thus has a variable distance with respect to the folder walls, i.e. the position of the 1st longitudinal fold and the open side opposite the 1st longitudinal fold on the folded product is variable and depends on the width of the paper web to be processed, whereby the Slidable former is the means to enable optimal product guidance of the folding products with regard to the product guide elements arranged in the width of the folding unit through the folding unit.

    Optional kann das Illustrationsfalzwerk z.B. für Einzweckproduktionen auch mit einem festen Falztrichter ausgerüstet werden.
    Unter einer Einzweckproduktion versteht man, dass das Format fix ist und mit der Druckmaschine, insbesondere Rollenrotationsdruckmaschine, nur eine Papierbahnbreite verarbeitet wird. Diese Variante findet häufig bei hohen Auflagen Anwendung, beispielsweise in der Katalog- oder Telefonbuch-Produktion.     Optionally, the illustration folder can also be equipped with a fixed former, for example for single-purpose production.
    Single-purpose production is understood to mean that the format is fixed and that only one paper web width is processed with the printing press, in particular a web-fed rotary printing press. This variant is often used for long runs, for example in catalog or telephone book production.
