Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a film transfer device for transferring a transfer layer adhering to a carrier film by means of a release layer under the action of pressure on at least area-wise coated with an adhesive sheet material according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Generic film transfer devices are used in the refinement of printed products, for example, to produce gloss effects.
  • the machines can be subdivided into hot stamping foil machines and cold foil transfer devices.
  • the transfer layer is transferred to the sheet material only under pressure, but not additionally under the action of heat.
  • adhesive is printed, so that a "printed image" of adhesive remains on the flat material, to which the transfer layer adheres in the film transfer mechanism. Due to the high accuracy of the adhesive application in the printing unit, for example, extremely detailed metallization layers can be transferred to the flat material, for example in the form of texts.
  • Other applications are films of any color, pre-embossed films, etc.
  • a problem with the film transfer technique is that the film must be moved at the same speed as the sheet material during the transfer and that usually only small area on the sheet material should be covered with the transfer layer. As a result, a lot of unused film is lost, which increases the average cost of the finished printed products.
  • the film transfer device is characterized in that the transfer cylinder is designed such that the carrier film by means of the transfer cylinder by static friction through the transfer nip is transportable.
  • the transfer cylinder advantageously takes over several functions, namely to transfer the transfer layer to the sheet material under pressure and on the other hand carry out the transport itself by the stiction with the back of the carrier film.
  • the magnitude of the pressure in the transmission may be variable, e.g. depending on film parameters, material parameters and machine parameters, such as the speed of the sheets.
  • a variable pressure during the transfer is conceivable, so different pressure at the beginning or end of the transfer.
  • this variable pressure action is controllable.
  • the invention can therefore be compared to the prior art, a drive, namely for the return or the flow can be saved.
  • mechanisms for generating the Stiction can advantageously be an embodiment of the transfer cylinder as a suction drum in question or the use of an electrostatically chargeable and dischargeable surface of the transfer cylinder or the use of a sticky or rough surface of the transfer cylinder, advantageously by means of an exchangeable lateral surface of the transfer cylinder.
  • the film transfer device comprises a lifting device and the transfer cylinder is mounted such that it can be lifted by means of the lifting device from the printing cylinder.
  • the transfer cylinder is lifted from the printing cylinder, it is no longer necessary to transport the carrier film and the sheet material at the same speed. Accordingly, the speed for saving backing sheet material can be reduced, stopped or even transported backwards.
  • backward transport it can be calculated which length of carrier film is required in order to accelerate the carrier film for the next transfer so that the carrier film and the flat material again have the same speed during the transfer, so that they are close to that already in a preceding transfer process changed surface of the carrier film transmission can take place.
  • the transfer cylinder has a smaller diameter than the impression cylinder.
  • the mass to be moved is advantageously reduced, so that acceleration and deceleration processes of the transfer cylinder and a lifting of transfer cylinder from the printing cylinder is easier to carry out. Due to the smaller mass of the transfer cylinder, which is possible by using a smaller diameter, the acceleration and deceleration processes can be faster, so that less film is wasted unused.
  • the Excenter the transport of the carrier film is decoupled from the unwinding to Aufwickelrolle from the drive of these roles, so that a simple forward or backward movement of the carrier film in the transfer nip is possible by the transfer cylinder.
  • the film transfer device additionally comprises the applicator for the adhesive, which cooperates with the printing cylinder for adhesive application to the sheet material.
  • the adhesive is a UV adhesive and a UV dryer is arranged between the applicator unit and the transfer cylinder.
  • the film transfer device 100 shown in the figure is shown here only schematically in section. Other required for the operation of such a device elements such as storage, drives, control, etc., which are not relevant to the invention are shown only schematically or not at all, as they would be obvious to the skilled person alone and would hamper the understanding of the invention.
  • the transfer unit 10 is typically part of a sheet or web press, not shown, in the case shown here a sheet processing press.
  • the applicator unit 50 for the adhesive 2 is arranged in a separate upstream printing unit of a printing machine.
  • adhesive 2 is printed imagewise on a sheet-like material 1 by means of a commissioning cylinder 51, which rotates in the direction of rotation designated by reference numeral 51 '.
  • a sheet material 1 is shown true to scale on the transfer cylinder 15.
  • the layer structure of carrier film 5, separating layer 6 and transfer layer 3 is shown by way of example to scale, just before the film waste roll 27.
  • the carrier film 5 is coated over the entire surface over its entire length with a corresponding separating layer 6 and transfer layer 3.
  • the transfer layer 3 in the film outlet 29 is missing in the transferred areas.
  • the carrier film 5 is stored on a film supply roll 21 and is withdrawn from the film supply roll 21 in the direction of movement designated by the reference numeral 5 '. Serves either a not shown drive the film supply roll 21 or the transfer cylinder drive 33 or a mixture of the two.
  • the carrier film feed 28 the carrier film 5 is first deflected over pulleys 24 in an Excenter Grande and then via further pulleys 24, 26 to the transfer cylinder 30 and then in the Shinfolienabschreib to corresponding pulleys 24 ', 26' in a further Excenter acknowledged 22 ', 23' and along the direction of movement, which is rolled up by reference numeral 5 "onto a likewise driven film waste roll 27.
  • a dancer roller 25 is arranged, which regulates the web tension of the carrier film 5 by movements of the movement direction indicated by the reference numeral 25 ".
  • the Exenterer acids 22, 22 '23, 23' advantageously have their own or common drive, which is not shown, but advantageously also controlled by the controller 40.
  • Transfer cylinder 30 is arranged to regulate the web tension of the carrier film 5 in the carrier film removal 29.
  • the transfer cylinder 30 In normal operation, the transfer cylinder 30 is operated in the direction of rotation designated by the reference numeral 33 "at a speed in the transfer of the transfer layer 3 from the carrier film to the sheet material 1, the speed of the sheet material 1 in the transfer nip 16 between transfer cylinder 30th and pressure cylinder 15, which rotates in the direction of the arrow indicated by the reference numeral 15 'For this purpose, the transfer cylinder 30 is driven by a drive 33 via a drive wheel 31 by means of a drive belt 32 in the direction of movement indicated by reference numeral 33'.
  • a lifting device 34 is provided, which is adapted to lift the transfer cylinder 30 of the printing cylinder 15, when just no transfer layer 3 is to be transferred from the supporting foil 5 on the sheet material 1.
  • the speed of the transfer cylinder 30 and thus the carrier film 5 can be reduced via the drive 33 of the transfer cylinder 30, such that the carrier film is slowed down, stands still or even backward into the Excenter acknowledged 22, 23 of the carrier film feed 28 is fed.
  • the transfer cylinder 30 is designed such that a sufficient static friction between the back of the carrier film 5 and the surface of the transfer cylinder prevails or can be generated.
  • the transfer cylinder 30 is designed as a suction wheel, which can be acted upon by a negative pressure, at least on parts of the circumference, so that the desired static friction between the transfer cylinder 30 and the carrier film 5 can be generated.
  • the transfer cylinder 30 has a surface 35 which is electrostatically chargeable or dischargeable, so as to apply electrostatic forces sufficiently strong static friction between the carrier film 5 and the surface 35 of the transfer cylinder 30 to ensure.
  • the transfer cylinder has a sticky or rough surface 35, so that in this way the corresponding static friction between carrier film and transfer cylinder 30 can be generated.
  • this electrostatically chargeable, sticky or rough surface 35 is a cylinder cover, somewhat similar to a sleeve.
  • the transfer cylinder 30 has, as shown in the figure, a considerably smaller diameter than the impression cylinder 15 and accordingly, the transfer cylinder 30 therefore also has a comparatively low mass. Due to the low mass and the forces required by the lifting device 34 for lifting the transfer cylinder 30 from the printing cylinder 15 in the direction of movement designated by the reference numeral 34 'are low, so that correspondingly fast switching cycles are possible. Also, the deceleration or acceleration of the transfer cylinder 30 in the circumferential direction by the lower mass comparatively quickly possible, so that only a small film consumption of the carrier film 5 comes about by such short switching and acceleration times.
  • the supply and discharge side Exenterer towels 22, 22 ', 23, 23' are used to decouple the film transport through the film supply roll 21 and the film waste roll 27, so that between the two memories 22, 22 ', 23, 23' remaining portion of the carrier film. 5 can be done solely by the transfer cylinder 30.
  • Excenter As an alternative to the illustrated Excenter notesn 22, 22 ', 23, 23' are other known from the prior art storage devices for webs readily conceivable.
  • information and instructions are stored in a controller 40 in order to operate the transfer cylinder drive 33 and the lifting device 34 in such a way that as complete as possible utilization of the transfer layer 3 of the carrier film 5 is achieved.
  • the applicator 50 is a commissioned work for UV adhesive.
  • a UV dryer 60 is arranged between the applicator 50 and the transfer cylinder 30 at the periphery of the printing cylinder 15 in order to give the UV adhesive 2 suitable for the transfer of the transfer layer 3 of the carrier film 5 consistency.
  • a plurality of transfer cylinders 30 may be arranged with different film along the circumference of the printing cylinder 15.
