Definitions

  • the invention relates to a printing unit of a web-fed rotary printing press according to claim 1.
  • Printing units of web-fed rotary printing presses have a plurality of printing units, each printing unit consisting of a transfer cylinder, a forme cylinder and an inking unit and optionally a dampening unit.
  • the form cylinder are also referred to as a plate cylinder and the transfer cylinder as a rubber cylinder.
  • printing units can have impression cylinders, wherein an impression cylinder can interact with one or more transfer cylinders of different printing units.
  • the transfer cylinders are also referred to as satellite cylinders.
  • printing units are also known which do not have counter-pressure cylinders, with such printing units without counterpressure cylinders unrolling the transfer cylinders of two printing couples.
  • a web-fed rotary printing unit having a plurality of printing units accordingly comprises a plurality of forme cylinders and a plurality of transfer cylinders and optionally one or more impression cylinders.
  • the present invention relates to printing units having a plurality of forme cylinder, a plurality of transfer cylinders and at least one impression cylinder.
  • Such printing units are also referred to as satellite printing units.
  • Satellite printing units of web-fed rotary printing presses usually have four printing units and therefore four forme cylinders and four transfer cylinders and one or two impression cylinders.
  • Such satellite printing units with four printing units and a counter-pressure cylinder are referred to as 9-cylinder printing units;
  • Printing units with four printing units and two counter-pressure cylinders, however, are referred to as 10-cylinder printing units.
  • partial printing images are preferably applied in the region of each printing unit for preferably a plurality of printed pages in one printing ink to a printing material moved between the transfer cylinders and the or each impression cylinder.
  • a pressure must be applied in a so-called pressure-on position of the printing unit on the one hand between the cylinders and the transfer cylinders of the printing units and on the other hand between the transfer cylinders and the respective impression cylinder, said pressing by pivoting or hiring the transfer cylinder to the respective form cylinder and provided to the respective impression cylinder.
  • the transfer cylinders are usually mounted eccentrically and so relative to the respective forme cylinder As well as impression cylinder positioned that a center of the transfer cylinder is not on a connecting line between centers of the corresponding form cylinder and impression cylinder. Rather, a connecting line of a center of a transfer cylinder with the center of the corresponding counter-pressure cylinder with the line connecting the centers of the corresponding forme cylinder and counter-pressure cylinder forms an angle between 5 ° and 40 °.
  • the transfer cylinder, the form cylinder and the or each impression cylinder such pressure units are subject to a deflection due to their own weight and due to the pressure or contact forces. This deflection depends in particular on the shape of the cylinder, with relatively slender cylinder undergo a greater deflection.
  • a clear circumferential register deviation can occur between the partial printing images to be printed in the different printing units of the printing unit, which adversely affects the print quality.
  • these circumferential register deviations are particularly pronounced when relatively slender cylinders are present.
  • the ratio of printed pages or printed images positioned axially one behind the other in the circumferential direction is large, for example in the case of 6/2 cylinders, in which six printed pages or printed images are arranged next to each other and in the circumferential direction in the axial direction two printed pages or printed images is positioned one behind the other.
  • 6/2 cylinders in which six printed pages or printed images are arranged next to each other and in the circumferential direction in the axial direction two printed pages or printed images is positioned one behind the other.
  • 3/1 cylinder, 4/1 cylinder or 6/1 cylinder A conventional printing unit is in EP-A-1314559 disclosed.
  • a printing unit of a multiple-printing-unit web-fed rotary printing press which can also be arranged in a satellite construction, each printing cylinder of each printing unit carrying at least one printing plate, such that each printing cylinder in the axial direction next to each other several print images.
  • the printed images juxtaposed in the axial direction of the respective forme cylinder are offset in the circumferential direction, wherein the offset is determined by the circumferential register deviations between the partial print images to be printed in different printing units.
  • each printing plate carries at least one printed image and wherein the axially juxtaposed on a form cylinder printing plates do not differ in their circumferential position.
  • the present invention is based on the problem to provide a novel printing unit of a web-fed rotary printing press with minimized circumferential register deviations.
  • Fig. 1 shows a printing unit 10 of a web-fed rotary printing press, wherein the printing unit 10 four printing units 11, 12, 13 and 14 and therefore four forme cylinders 15, 16, 17 and 18 and four transfer cylinders 19, 20, 21 and 22 includes.
  • the printing units 11 to 14 have not shown inking units and optionally dampening units.
  • the printing unit of Fig. 1 is therefore designed as a so-called 9-cylinder printing unit.
  • At least one printing plate is positioned on each of the forme cylinders 15 to 18, such that each forme cylinder 15 to 18 carries several print images next to one another in the axial direction and optionally in circumferential direction to apply corresponding partial print images to a printing substrate 24, the number of axially juxtaposed print images the number of axially juxtaposed on the substrate 24 to be printed pages corresponds.
  • the web-shaped printing substrate 24 is therefore printed in the region of each printing unit 11 to 14 with partial printing images in a printing ink for a plurality of axially juxtaposed and possibly circumferentially successively arranged print pages, according to Fig. 1 the printing material 24 for this purpose is moved between the transfer cylinders 19 to 22 and the impression cylinder 23.
  • First partial printed images are applied to the printing substrate 24 in the area of the printing unit 11, and further partial printed images are successively printed on the printing substrate 24 in the printing units 12, 13 and 14.
  • circumferential register displacements between the partial print images to be printed in the different printing units must be minimized so that the partial print images are printed on the printing substrate 24 in exact coverage.
  • the curve 25 corresponds to the curvature of a printed in the printing unit 11 of the forme cylinder 15 and the transfer cylinder 19 on the substrate 24 line.
  • the curve 26 corresponds to the curvature of a printed in the printing unit 12 of the forme cylinder 16 and the transfer cylinder 20 line.
  • a straight, horizontal line on the plate cylinder 17 in printing unit 13 in the ink transfer via the transfer cylinder 21 to the curved curve 27, and a straight, horizontal line on the plate cylinder 18 in printing unit 14 is in the ink transfer via the transfer cylinder 22 on the substrate 24 to the curved curve 28.
  • the vertical distance between the curves 25 to 28 corresponds to the circumferential register deviation at the respective axial position of the printing material between the partial printing images to be printed in the printing units 11 to 14.
  • Fig. 3 shows a forme cylinder 15 or 16 or 17 or 18 of the printing unit 10, which carries in the axial direction next to each other six formed as printing plates 29 printing plates, each of the printing plates 29 carries a printed image 30.
  • the position of the print images 30 on the printing plates 29 is identical throughout, but the printing plates 29 arranged side by side in the axial direction on a plate cylinder are offset relative to each other in their position on the respective forme cylinder in the circumferential direction.
  • the offset is determined according to the in Fig. 2 expected circumferential register deviation between the partial printing images to be printed in the individual printing units 11 to 14.
  • Fig. 4 shows an embodiment of the invention, in which on a Form cylinder 15 and 16 or 17 and 18 are again positioned in the axial direction of the same six printing plates 31 side by side, each of the printing plates 31 in turn carries a printed image 32.
  • the pressure plates 32 on the printing plates 31 are circumferentially offset from one another in order to compensate the circumferential register deviations between the partial printing images to be printed in different printing units.
  • the printing plates 31 are exposed with printing images 32 staggered in the circumferential direction. This has the advantage that no constructive changes must be made to the plate clamping systems of the forme cylinder, so that the invention can also be used in existing printing units.
  • each printing plate can comprise more than one printed image, namely, when a plurality of printed pages are printed with a printing plate.
