Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Kurzfarbwerk einer Rotationsdruckmaschine gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a short inking unit of a rotary printing press according to the Preamble of claim 1.

Die WO 91/13 761 A1 beschreibt ein Kurzfarbwerk einer Rotationsdruckmaschine, wobei Formzylinder und Farbauftragwalze gleichen Durchmesser aufweisen. Der Farbauftragwalze ist eine changierende Glättwalze zugeordnet.WO 91/13 761 A1 describes a short inking unit of a rotary printing press, wherein The forme cylinder and inking roller have the same diameter. The An oscillating smoothing roller is assigned to the inking roller.

Die US 43 32 195 A offenbart ein Farbwerk mit einer Rasterwalze, wobei ein axial bewegbarer Glättzylinder angeordnet ist. Der Glättzylinder und die Farbauftragwalzen weisen unterschiedlichen Durchmesser auf.US 43 32 195 A discloses an inking unit with an anilox roller, one axially movable smoothing cylinder is arranged. The smoothing cylinder and the inking rollers have different diameters.

Die EP 04 18 778 A2 zeigt ein Farbwerk mit axial bewegbaren Farbauftragwalzen. Über das Verhältnis der Durchmesser von Farbauftragwalzen und Formzylindern ist nichts bekannt.EP 04 18 778 A2 shows an inking unit with axially movable inking rollers. about the ratio of the diameter of inking rollers and forme cylinders is nothing known.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Kurzfarbwerk einer Rotationsdruckmaschine zu schaffen.The invention has for its object a short inking unit To create rotary printing press.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.The object is achieved by the features of claim 1.

Dieses Kurzfarbwerk ohne Zonenschrauben ist vorzugsweise in Offsetdruckmaschinen für Qualitätsakzidenzdruck angeordnet.This short inking unit without zone screws is preferably used in offset printing machines for Quality job printing arranged.

Solche Farbwerke sind bekannt. Sie sind zweiwalzig mit Anilox- und Auftragwalze ausgebildet. Sie genügen für gute Zeitungsqualität. Bei Akzidenzqualität auf gestrichenen Papieren mit z. B. 70-iger Bildraster benötigt man Aniloxwalzen mit entsprechend feineren Gravuren als im Zeitungsdruck um Moiree-Erscheinungen zu vermeiden. Derartige Aniloxwalzen sind jedoch empfindlich gegen mechanische Beschädigungen.Such inking units are known. They are two rollers with anilox and applicator roller educated. They are enough for good newspaper quality. With commercial quality on coated Papers with z. B. 70 iger image grid you need anilox rollers with correspondingly finer Engraving than in newspaper printing to avoid moiree appearances. such However, anilox rollers are sensitive to mechanical damage.

Erfindungsgemäß ist eine gröbere, d. h. mechanisch stabilere Stuktur der Aniloxwalze dann auch für Feinraster einsetzbar, wenn der Farbfilm mit Grobraster auf der Auftragwalze geglättet ist bevor die Platte berührt wird.According to the invention, a coarser, i.e. H. mechanically more stable structure of the anilox roller can also be used for fine screens if the color film with coarse screen on the Application roller is smoothed before the plate is touched.

Glättwalzen mit seitlicher Verreibung sind bei klassischen Farbwerken an sich bekannt. Sie sind aber im Durchmesser klein gehalten, machen mehr als eine Umdrehungen pro Drucklänge und kehren mit ihren Umkehrpunkten bei der seitlichen Verreibung auf der Form um.Smoothing rollers with lateral rubbing are known per se in classic inking units. However, they are kept small in diameter, making more than one revolution per Print length and return with their reversal points when rubbing on the side Shape around.

Daher gibt es Schablonieren, Farbanreichungen insbesondere auch vom Druckkanal bei Bogendruckmaschinen und Farbabfall über die Umfangslänge zum Druckende.Therefore, there are stencils, color enhancements, especially from the pressure channel Sheetfed presses and ink waste along the circumference at the end of printing.

In neuartiger Weise wird vorgeschlagen, nur einen einzigen Glättzylinder zu verwenden, der 1:1 umlauft und deshalb nicht im Umfang Schablonieren kann.In a new way it is proposed to use only a single smoothing cylinder which circulates 1: 1 and therefore cannot stencil to the extent.

Ein Einfallen in die Auftragwalzengrube wird durch Schmitzringe vermieden und ein Stehenbleiben in der Grube durch Zahnradantrieb. Bei endlos aufvulkanisierter 1:1 Auftragwalze können Schmitzringe und Zahnradantrieb entfallen. Höchste Eindruckqualität ist jedoch mit Offsetdrucktüchern als Farbübertragungsmedium auf dem Auftragwalzen-Zylinder zu erreichen, was einen Spannkanal bedingt oder eine aufvulkanisierte Gummizylinderhülse.Falling into the applicator roller pit is avoided and a by bearer rings Stop in the pit by gear drive. With an endless vulcanized 1: 1 The application roller can dispense with bearer rings and gear drive. Highest However, impression quality is on the offset printing blankets as the ink transfer medium To achieve application roller cylinders, which requires a tension channel or a Vulcanized rubber cylinder sleeve.

Der Glättzylinder wird auf zwei Umdrehungen nur einmal hin- und herbewegt. Bei der ersten Umdrehung macht er über die gesamte Druckabwicklung einen Hinweg von ca. 15 bis 20 mm. Im Zylinderkanal der Auftragwalze erfolgt die Bewegungsumkehr. Bei der zweiten Umdrehung läuft der Glättzylinder zurück - wiederum über die gesamte Druckabwicklungslänge ohne Bewegungsumkehr. Die Umkehr erfolgt wiederum in der Zylindergrube. Damit ist sichergestellt, daß keine Farbunterschiede durch Stillstehen oder Bewegungsumkehr des Glättzylinders auf der Auftragwalze, der Platte und damit im Druckbild auf Papier sichtbar werden.The smoothing cylinder is only reciprocated once in two revolutions. In the first turn, it makes a one-way walk of approximately 15 over the entire printing process up to 20 mm. The movement is reversed in the cylinder channel of the applicator roller. In the second turn the smoothing cylinder runs back - again over the entire Print run length without reversal of motion. The reverse takes place in the Cylinder gap. This ensures that there are no color differences due to standstill or Reversal of movement of the smoothing cylinder on the applicator roller, the plate and thus in Print image on paper become visible.

Der axiale Hub des Glättzylinders muß in jedem Fall so groß sein, daß im Berührungsstreifen zwischen Glättzylinder und Farbauftragwalze mehr als ein Näpfchen bzw. eine Haschur Abstand auf der Rasterwalze seitlich verrieben wird.The axial stroke of the smoothing cylinder must be so large that in Contact strips between the smoothing cylinder and inking roller more than a well or a hashing distance is rubbed laterally on the anilox roller.

Das Dreiwalzenfarbwerk - d. h. ein Zweiwalzenfarbwerk mit zusätzlicher 1:1 großer Glättwalze - zeigt schablonierfreie Einfärbung von extrem schwierigen Druckformen bei guten Farbdichten über die Breite und im Umfang.The three-roller inking unit - d. H. a two-roller inking unit with an additional 1: 1 size Smoothing roller - shows stencil-free inking of extremely difficult printing forms good color densities across the width and circumference.

In weiterer Ausbildung der Erfindung kann die Farbauftragwalze z. B. mit einem doppeltgroßem Plattenzylinder für zwei verschiedene Farbplatten im Umfang und damit im Zylinderverhältnis 2:1 oder auch mehr zusammenarbeiten. Dann muß die Auftragwalze getaktet werden, um nur ihre Farbplatte einzufärben, während sie weiter mit der Aniloxwalze im Kontrakt bleibt. In diesem Fall muß Glättzylinder der geringfügigen Lageveränderung der Auftragwalze folgen, d. h. die Schmitzringberührung bleibt durch geeignete Maßnahmen erhalten.In a further embodiment of the invention, the inking roller z. B. with a double-sized plate cylinder for two different color plates in scope and thus work together in a cylinder ratio of 2: 1 or more. Then the applicator roller be clocked only to color their color plate while continuing with the Anilox roller remains in the contract. In this case the smoothing cylinder must be the minor one Change the position of the applicator roller, d. H. the bearer ring contact remains receive appropriate measures.
