Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for detecting spectral, densitometric or color measurements on substrates during the printing process in a printing press.
- a method for operating a scanning device for optical density measurement is known from DE 100 23 127 A1 known.
- the printed web is guided in a web offset printing press, which leaves a last printing unit, via a guide roller, wherein a scanning device for optical density measurement, color measurement or spectral measurement is mounted parallel to the guide roller.
- a scanning device for optical density measurement, color measurement or spectral measurement is mounted parallel to the guide roller.
- an image inspection device which can also be used for color measurement.
- This machine can be used on web offset and sheetfed offset presses.
- colorimetric measured values can be recorded in the printing machine in order to check the print quality. While all the image data of a printed product is used for the image inspection, only specific representative areas of an image are used for color control, for example for each color zone.
- a closed colorimetric control loop is used to compare the recorded color measured values with desired measured values of a printing original and, if necessary, to calculate the corresponding color film thickness changes for the respective ink zones of the printing units of a printing press. The set values thus calculated are ended by the control system to the ink fountain engines of the respective printing units.
- densitometric or color values are recorded on the produced substrates during the printing process in the printing press, but the measured values are evaluated in a computer of the printing press or a separate computer and at least those deviations which are not sufficient by changing the Settings on the press can be avoided, are forwarded to the controller in the prepress.
- This is relatively easy to accomplish in particular in the so-called computer-to-plate technology (CtP), since these digital prepress stages also have computers which can receive the corresponding data from the computer of the printing press. In this way, a closed loop is started from the finished substrate through the press and the prepress back to the press closed.
- the measured values sent by the printing press or their evaluation can thus be taken into account in the prepress stage during the production of the printing plates and thus also deviations which are not compensated for in the printing press alone can be corrected.
- color readings are understood to mean values in color spaces such as Lab, RGB color space, or other unique color spaces. Measured values can be taken into account when creating printing plates even across multiple print jobs, so that over many print jobs, a continuous improvement process takes place throughout the entire production chain, from the scanner in the prepress stage to the final product in the press. In this way it is possible to carry out an improvement process without having to record special test forms in a complex process. Since in a digital workflow as today usually the prepress with scanners, platesetters, raster image processors and the printing press are networked together, this data can be exchanged without additional hardware or with little additional effort.
- the acquired measured values are fed to a computer and the computer uses the measured values for creating or correcting a color profile in the control of inking units of a printing press.
- the computer uses the measured values for creating or correcting a color profile in the control of inking units of a printing press.
- sensors for recording the measured values are present and are calibrated for color calibration at specific time intervals by means of a calibration device. Since measured values are constantly determined in an inline measuring method, it must absolutely be ensured that these measured values are comparable with one another. For such an accurate measurement, therefore, in addition to a one-time calibration during commissioning, a regular system calibration is necessary in order to be able to take into account heat or wear-related changes in the measured values, age-related changes of illumination sources or soiling.
- the in-line measuring device present in the printing press has a calibration device which is put into operation at certain intervals. In this way it is ensured that the in-line measuring system is continuously recalibrated and operational deviations avoided.
- the reference value for the calibration device is a calibration area with associated color measurement values which are stored in the computer.
- the measuring heads for spectral, densitometric or color measurement, which are available in the inline measuring system, are directed to a calibration surface at certain time intervals and recalibrated.
- the color value of the calibration surface is known, so that the value determined by the measuring head can be computationally compared with the stored color value. If deviations occur, the measuring electronics of the measuring head are recalibrated accordingly, ie a correction is made in such a way that the measured value is matched to the stored color value in the computer.
- This calibration also allows soiled probes to provide usable readings, at least over a relatively long period of time, while without calibration a clean-up of the entire meter or replacement of an aging fixture would be required in a relatively short time.
- the calibration surface is white.
- the calibration measurement should ideally be done on a standardized white area, which is why the calibration area is designed in exactly that color.
- one or more calibration surfaces are arranged in the channel of a printing cylinder in extension of the printing cylinder surface. Since the inline measuring system has several measuring heads, preferably eight measuring heads, distributed over the width of the printing substrate in 32 ink zones, all measuring heads must be set and checked by means of calibration surfaces. However, since the lateral mobility of the measuring heads is limited, it is not possible to move all the measuring heads to a side-mounted calibration surface. Furthermore, it is important that the distance between the calibration surface and the measuring head corresponds exactly to the distance between the measuring head and the substrate surface. In order to be able to apply the calibration surfaces for all measuring heads over the entire width of the printing substrate, these are arranged in the channel of a printing cylinder as an extension of the printing cylinder surface. As a result, the calibration surfaces are exactly the same distance from the measuring heads as the surface of the substrate and are not in the way during the printing process.
- At least one calibration surface is arranged laterally outside the impression cylinder surface between the side wall and the impression cylinder.
- Calibration surfaces located in the pressure channel have the major disadvantage that they become dirty during the printing process.
- the sensors are measuring heads and the calibration values determined by the calibration of a measuring head are converted by the computer into calibration values for further measuring heads.
- This method is also referred to as transfer calibration, since not all measuring heads are calibrated on their own calibration surfaces, but a calibration surface outside the cylinder surface, for. B. arranged between the side wall and pressure cylinder, sufficient.
- this calibration surface can only be made by one of the measuring media edges detecting the measuring heads, since only these measuring heads can be moved laterally beyond the boundary of the printing cylinder.
- the other measuring heads are calibrated by a transfer calibration by moving the entire measuring bar for a distance that corresponds to the distance between the measuring heads.
- each measuring head now detects the measuring zone of the measuring head lying next to it.
- the probes are aligned either on a white substrate or on a color-printed substrate.
- this does not matter for the course of the calibration measurement.
- the measured values of the first and second measuring heads are compared with one another and if necessary the values of the second measuring head are corrected. This concludes the transfer calibration to the second measuring head and allows the optionally corrected measured values of the second measuring head to be compared with the measured values of the third measuring head. This is done in an iterative procedure for all other measuring heads in the same way, so that only one single measuring head has to be calibrated by means of one calibration surface, while all others are calibrated in one step by computational comparisons.
- At least one calibration surface can be closed by means of a cover.
- a cover reliably protects the calibration surface against contamination during the printing process. The cover will only be opened when a calibration procedure needs to be performed. This eliminates the otherwise repetitive required cleaning the calibration surface.
- the transfer calibration can also be carried out by means of an external measuring device.
- a built-in measuring device or a hand-held measuring device is present at the control panel, which has its own built-in calibration surface, calibrated at regular intervals on this surface and with which the currently printed substrate is measured. Because this substrate previously measured by the inline measuring device and its measuring heads and the.
- the values subsequently determined with the hand-held measuring device can be passed on directly to the measuring electronics in the measuring bar, and the corresponding calibration can thus be carried out.
- the first printing material in the unprinted state d. H.
- the transfer calibration can be done with an external meter.
- the calibration can be carried out particularly advantageously in the pressure-free area directly after the grippers, since the sheet is ideally guided here and, moreover, paper white is always present.
- This edge area usually has an unprinted area of 6-12 mm and is completely sufficient for the measurement.
- the external handheld device can also be used for a different purpose.
- the sheet is measured in the machine for a variety of reasons with the aid of a Polfilters, that is, all measured values are detected polarized.
- the control of the printing press works with unpolarized values, because the information from the prepress stage is only unpolarized, ie the detected Measured values must be converted into unpolarized values.
- a mathematical relationship between polarized and unpolarized values must be stored in the press. This relationship can be established using the hand-held measuring device, which measures unpolarized.
- a sheet is measured polarized once with the inline measuring device in the printing press and once unpolarized and polarized outside the machine by means of a hand-held measuring device. If this measurement is performed over several arcs, a relationship between the polarized and unpolarized measurements can be seen. This relationship is then stored as a correction function in the computer of the printing press, so that the values can be converted into each other at any time.
- certain color values are stored in the computer for each measuring head, the ratios of these color values are stored in the computer relative to one another, and a signal is output when the stored measured value ratios change.
- Each spectrometer has z. B. on delivery to a white reading as initialization parameters. These white measured values belonging to the respective measuring heads are stored in their ratios to each other for all measuring heads.
- paper white measurements are then carried out continuously and the measured value ratios determined in the process are compared with the values stored in the measuring electronics. As soon as these conditions change, whereby a certain tolerance range can be set, this is regarded as a signal for pollution. In this case, an acoustic or visual signal is displayed to the operating personnel, whereupon a cleaning of the measuring heads is to be carried out.
- a first measuring head detects its own and the color zone of a second measuring head lying next to it and the second measuring head also detects its own zone and that of the first measuring head and the detected measured values are compared with one another.
- a cross-comparison between the individual measuring heads of the measuring modules of a bar-shaped inline measuring device enabled in the printing press First, all measuring heads simultaneously measure a color zone on a substrate, then the entire measuring bar is moved sideways so far so that each measuring head can now detect the measuring location of its neighbor. If the calibration has been carried out correctly, these measured values must not differ or only within very narrow tolerance limits. However, if the measured values show deviations, it is also possible thereby to conclude that the optics of the measuring heads are contaminated.
- Another possibility in the detection of contamination on the measuring system results from the fact that measurements are made on a light / dark edge on at least one color zone of a measuring head, wherein the measuring head in uniform steps from one side beyond the light / dark edge is moved across the bright / dark edge to the side on this side of the bright / dark edge and the recorded intensity measured values are compared with the known structure of the measuring head.
- a bright / dark edge provides z. For example, the transition from paper white to color range.
- This measuring range is now to be traversed by a measuring head as follows. First, the measuring head measures on the side of the light / dark edge, which shows the paper white. Subsequently, the measuring bar z. B.
- a lighting device is present, before the actual measurement by a measuring head, a dark measurement is made and the measured value thereby detected by the case of the switched on lighting device Subsequent color measurement is subtracted.
- a lighting device In order to be able to scan the surface of the printing substrate, it must be illuminated with a lighting device in the vicinity of the measuring head.
- extraneous light may also fall into the area between the printing substrate and the measuring head / illumination device. This falsifies the measurement results and must be compensated accordingly.
- One possibility is to perform a dark measurement, ie the illumination device is initially switched off, and a measurement is carried out with the illumination device switched off.
- the computer can determine whether the extraneous light has increased or decreased during the light measurement by comparing the two measured values, since it can compare the measured values before and after.
- the gradient of the change in external light so that the extraneous light influence from the light measurement can reliably be calculated out even with changing, in particular periodic extraneous light.
- Another possibility for the correction of incident extraneous light is that simultaneously with the color measurement of a first measuring head by means of a second measuring head, a measured value is recorded on a white background of a printing material and the thereby determined white reference value is used to correct the color measurement values determined with the first measuring head.
- the second measuring head must be spatially separated from the first measuring head accommodated, which must always make a measurement on paper white. This can be z. B. be the edge region of the substrate.
- the white reference value determined with the second measuring head is included in the calculation of the color or density values and thus the influence of the extraneous light is compensated.
- spectral values of the extraneous light source which lie in the spectral range of the measuring device, by providing a filter which filters out the spectrum of the extraneous light source.
- a similar effect can be achieved by computational interpolation. Since the spectrum of the extraneous light source is known, spectral values corresponding to the measurement spectrum are not used and instead the unusable values are interpolated over the spectrum of the extraneous light source by means of the neighboring values. Thus, peaks caused by the extraneous light source can be excluded in the measurement spectrum.
- the following possibility is also given, namely that the acquisition of measured values by measuring heads with possible fluctuations of light sources by means of at least one sensor which detects the fluctuations, or by means of a control signal of the fluctuating light source is coordinated in time. Also, information about the temporal behavior of the extraneous light source must be available, ie these values must either be stored in a computer or the extraneous light source supplies the information online via sensors to the computer. In this case, the measurements are coordinated by the computer so that it is measured whenever the external light source is switched off or has a minimum.
- a plurality of measuring heads are distributed over the width of a printing material at equidistant intervals and at the same time capture ink zones.
- 32 ink zones extend over the entire width of the substrate, resulting in 192 measuring fields for 6 printed colors, which are to be recorded by the measuring electronics and the measuring heads.
- Measuring cycles over at least 192 sheets are required on a single spectral measuring head, which is not sufficient for good control. For this reason, several measuring heads are required, which are able to measure in parallel and simultaneously. Since the measuring heads are offset in time by one color zone after each measuring process, in particular 8, 16 or 32 measuring heads are ideally suited for parallel measuring.
- the measuring heads can also be moved in such a way that the same color is always detected across several sheets so that they can be corrected well and then the measuring heads are positioned to the next color, which is then also corrected . Since different measuring strategies can be used, the measuring device must store the measured values with a time stamp and a placemark in the computer of the printing press so that the correct references can be produced at any time in order to be able to correctly compare the actually comparable measured values. In that case, the measurement strategy no longer plays a role and the measured values must always be correctly assigned.
- the measuring heads are positioned so that they detect several colors simultaneously. Since frequently measuring the mechanics and the drive motor of the measuring beam are heavily loaded with the measuring heads, a so-called economy increases the life. Since, however, the values still change greatly in the press-on phase due to the process, frequent measurements must be carried out continuously there, while a different procedure can be selected in the print-out phase, because during the print-out phase the color values remain almost constant in time, so that it is possible to position the measuring heads over mixing fields. As soon as an excessive tolerance deviation is detected, the measuring bar then starts again with its frequent measurements as in the pressure phase, which record all fields and all zones. As a result, the reason for the deviation can be measured out and the regulation of the printing press can be activated accordingly.
- the measuring device can also change its measuring strategy as a function of the recorded measured values.
- color patches which show low noise are not measured as often as patches with high noise. That Each color is captured with a different measurement strategy so that more noisy colors are measured more often. When the noise of these colors fades, the measurement strategy is also changed to reduce the frequent measurements.
- the measuring strategy can also be carried out depending on the printed image and the settings of the printing press itself. Since the data of the print image can be transmitted from the prepress to the computer, the measuring system can calculate a corresponding measurement strategy, since critical color areas in the print image are known in advance with their position and hue.
- the computer stores the position coordinates of print control strips applied to a printing substrate.
- the measurements on the ink zones usually take place in printing presses in the area of the print control strip.
- the position of the print control strip on the substrate must be known to the measuring bar of the inline measuring system.
- the printer manually measures the position of the print control strip on the printing plates and inputs the position coordinates of the print control strip into the computer of the machine control.
- the position coordinates can also be transferred from the pre-press in a networked workflow system to the computer of the printing press and used there.
- a sensor for determining the position of the print control strip is provided on the substrate.
- a two-dimensional sensor z. B a CCD imager
- the position of the print control strip can be determined.
- a pattern of the print control strip is stored in the machine control, which is compared with the image of the images captured by the CCD camera.
- the computer can calculate the position of the print control strip relative to the measurement bar and send out a corresponding start signal to it, so that the measurement starts exactly when the print control strip comes to lie below the measuring heads.
- the use of a one-dimensional sensor is suitable for detecting the position of the print control strip when the print control strip a detection segment z. B. is preceded by a bar code.
- a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the measured values determined by the measuring heads are subjected to a plausibility test after each measurement.
- a closed-loop inline measuring system should subject the measured values to a plausibility test in order to be able to separate implausible measured values.
- Such a check is made e.g. by the correlation between the stored template of the print control strip and the values of the measurement bar acquired during each measurement process. This also ensures that the measuring bar always moves to the correct measuring fields.
- the choice of the correct print control strip type can be checked by another algorithm in which a sensor detects a coding field within the print control strip and verifies the data encoded therein. Furthermore, a plausibility check of the measured values both in the local area and in the time domain is carried out during each measurement process. For this purpose, limit values for deviation z.
- the plausibility test is based here on the fact that in offset mode, the printing units in normal operation allow only continuous changes in the color values, so that jumps in color density, which a certain Magnitude exceed immediately attributable to errors in the measuring system.
- a display can be provided which informs about the state of the printing process.
- the printing staff will see the OK status on a display. If the machine is not in this stable state, this can be seen on the display and the printing staff knows that waste is being produced.
- the measuring method can also be used for indirect moisture measurement of the sheet.
- the dampening solution is usually reduced until so-called "toning" occurs in the screen printing on the sheet. This toning shows up
- the humidity value is again increased by a certain fixed percentage.
- a 70% -90% grid is introduced on the sheet in the print control bar or on positions specially arranged on the sheet for each color on the sheet edge. From the knowledge of the area coverage of this field and the printed color density, therefore, easy toning can be detected reliably with the measuring heads. This allows the color-water balance to be set and monitored.
- Fig. 1 shows a sheet-fed rotary printing machine 1 with a sheet feeder module 2 and a sheet delivery module 3 and four interposed printing units 4, 5.
- This embodiment of a sheet-fed rotary printing machine 1 is of course only to be understood as an example, since the number of printing units 4, 5 between sheet feeder 2 and sheet delivery 3 for the essence the invention plays no role.
- the printing units 4, 5 are connected to each other via transport cylinder 9, so that in the sheet delivery 2 stacked printed sheets 705 promoted by the individual printing units 4, 5 through the boom 3 and can be printed in the printing units 4, 5.
- the last printing unit 5 seen in the sheet running direction differs from the other printing units 4 in that it has a measuring bar 6 as a scanning device for evaluating the print quality of printed sheets.
- the measuring beam 6 is therefore accommodated in the last printing unit 5, since all the colors applied in the printing process are already present on the printed sheet 705 and thus the final state of the printed sheet is present.
- the term printing unit 4.5 is to be taken further, since of course one or more of the printing units 4, 5 can also be coating plants, sealing plants or other sheet-processing plants. Even if these other works are present in the printing machine 1, it makes sense that the measuring beam is mounted in the last work 5 in order to be able to control the sheet 705 with all the paint layers.
- All printing units 4, 5 have an impression cylinder 7 and a blanket cylinder 8, which form the printing nip 100 of a printing unit 4, 5.
- each printing unit 4, 5 is equipped with an inking unit 13.

- Such an optical trombone is less susceptible to wear than flexible optical fibers 614, which is of enormous importance in view of millions of measuring operations. It has been found that flexible light guides 614 tend to break after relatively few measuring operations and then have to be replaced.
- Fig. 8a and 8b each show the measuring beam 6 seen from below, with two different arrangements of measuring heads 622 and lighting modules 623.
- the measuring heads 622 and the illumination modules 623 are aligned crosswise, so that the light, which is reflected from the substrate is not scanned by the directly opposite measuring head 622 but crossed crosswise.
- Such an arrangement allows the arrangement of many measuring heads in a small space, since here the distance between the measuring heads 622 and the opposite lighting modules 623 in comparison to an arrangement according to FIG Fig. 8b may be lower, at which the measuring heads 622 scan the reflected light of exactly opposite illumination modules 623.
- a print control strip 700 is shown on a printed sheet 705.

- several print control strips 700 may be mounted on a sheet, for example one at the beginning of the sheet and one in the middle of the sheet or at the end of the sheet.
- the metering modules 603 may also be placed over special metering panels 702, 704 that contain color information on multiple or all colors.
- the measuring modules 603 then either do not have to be moved at all or are less frequently used, since the color information in a measuring field is locally compact. In the case of changes within the special measuring fields, the measuring mode is then changed again, and again all measuring fields 702, 704 are measured as in the start-up phase.
