Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for controlling the coloring in an offset printing press according to the preamble of claim 1 or 12 or 17.
  • each printing unit When printing a substrate is successively moved through several printing units of a printing press, wherein in each printing unit usually a printing ink is applied to the substrate.
  • the four scale colors black, magenta, cyan and yellow and, if appropriate, spot colors are generally printed, with a separate printing unit and therefore inking unit being present for each of these printing inks.
  • the inking unit of each printing unit has a Farbdosier driving, wherein the Farbdosier immunity comprises a number of ink zones corresponding number of Farbzonenstellelementen.
  • the Farbzonenstellelemente are also referred to as a color slider or color meter.
  • ink is applied to an ink fountain roller, which is also referred to as a ductor roller.
  • the amount of ink applied to the ductor roller per ink zone as a function of the ink zone setting elements is transferred from a lifting roller or from a film roller to a downstream inking unit roller of the inking unit.
  • the ink is moved over several inking rollers in the direction of a plate cylinder or plate cylinder of each printing unit.
  • the forme cylinder acts a so-called transfer cylinder or blanket cylinder, which transfers the ink from the forme cylinder to the substrate.
  • the color design of a printed product to be printed is set in a so-called pre-press.
  • so-called area coverage values are defined for each ink zone to be printed and thus for all inking units of the printing machine involved in the printing for each color zone.
  • the ink zone setting elements are adjusted and thus the zonal coloration is determined.
  • the present invention is based on the problem to provide a novel method for controlling the color in an offset printing machine.
  • this problem is solved by a method according to claim 1. Thereafter, color register marks are measured as print control elements for determining the actual color density values.
  • color density actual values for controlling the zonal coloration are determined by measuring color registration marks, which are usually measured to determine actual values for a color register control, by means of a camera. According to the inventive method of the first aspect of the present invention is therefore dispensed with separate pressure control elements for determining color density actual values. Rather, the color density actual values are detected by measuring the color register marks.
  • the color register marks are typically relatively small, dot-shaped or rectangular print control elements having a size between 0.5 mm and 2 mm.
  • Farbregistermarken typically are not present in each ink zone of the substrate, but distributed at a relatively large distance over the substrate. Therefore, the presence of such Farbregistermarken perceived as not disturbing even in the newspaper printing, in which no trimming of printed copies.
  • fields rastered in the same size as the color register marks, in addition to the color register marks, can be measured and used for the control. This can then provide additional information about the color reproduction behavior of the printing press and thus improve the color fidelity of the printing in halftone and mixed colors.
  • this problem is solved by a method according to claim 12. Thereafter, to compensate for stray light effects in a first step, the field of view of the camera is illuminated areally, wherein in a second step only those portions of the field of view of the camera are illuminated within which measuring ranges for detecting the color density actual values are.
  • this problem is solved by a method according to claim 17.
  • color density actual values determined for the compensation of scattered light effects during the measurement of the measuring ranges are corrected using image data of the measuring ranges and using data on the optics of the camera.
  • the method according to the second aspect of the present invention and / or the method according to the third aspect of the present invention are preferably used in combination with the method according to the first aspect of the present invention.
  • color register marks are relatively small print control elements, it is important to compensate for scattered light effects when determining color density actual values by measuring color register marks. This can be done according to the second aspect and / or according to the third aspect of the present invention.
  • the present invention relates to a method for controlling the color in at least one inking unit of an offset printing machine, namely for controlling the adjustable by Farbzonenstellelemente the respective inking zonal coloring.
  • measuring ranges of a printed printing material are measured with the aid of a camera and color density actual values determined are compared with predetermined color density nominal values in order to generate actuating signals for the ink zone setting elements of the respective inking unit, depending on the comparison between the actual color density values and the color density setpoints.
  • pressure control elements of the printing material which are printed on the printing material outside the actual subject are measured as measuring ranges for determining color density actual values.
  • actual color density values are detected by metrologically recording color register marks with the aid of a camera.
  • the color register marks serve not only to provide actual values for color register control but, according to the invention, also to provide actual values for controlling the zonal coloration.
  • the color register marks continue to serve to provide actual values for cut-off register control.
  • the color register marks can be supplemented by rastered fields of the same size.
  • the number of print control elements that are printed on a substrate outside of the actual subject can be reduced to an absolute minimum, so that even in newspaper printing, in which no trimming of printed copies occurs, the pressure control elements are perceived as not disturbing.
  • the control of the zonal color scheme is such that for those color zones within which a color register mark is located, the color density actual value for color control determined in the color register mark is measured in the respective color registration mark Color zone is used.
  • the corresponding color density actual value is determined using an interpolation between the color density actual values determined during measurement of the register marks or by derivation from zonal presetting values of these color zones in combination with color density actual values. If appropriate, empirically obtained correction values can be taken into account from previous printing processes. However, such color register marks may also be present in each color zone.
  • the measurement of the color register marks for the metrological detection of color density actual values takes place with the aid of a camera, wherein the camera is preferably a CCD camera or CMOS camera.
  • the camera is preferably a CCD camera or CMOS camera.
  • a color camera with white illumination of the substrate or a black and white camera with colored illumination of the substrate can be used.
  • the field of view of the camera used captures at least one to be measured color register mark completely.
  • the color register marks are relatively small, dot-shaped or rectangular print control elements, which typically have a diameter or size between 0.5 mm and 2 mm.
  • a compensation of scattered light effects is carried out in the measurement of the register marks to determine the color density actual values.
  • Fig. 1 and 2 each show a field of view 10 of a camera schematized, wherein in the field of view 10 four punctiform Farbregistermarken 11, 12, 13 and 14 are.
  • a first step see Fig. 1
  • the entire field of view 10 of the camera is illuminated areally.
  • the position of the color register marks 11, 12, 13 and 14 is determined, and then in a second step (see Fig. 2 ) are illuminated depending on the position of the Farbregistermarken 11, 12, 13 and 14, only those portions of the field of view 10 of the camera, within which the Farbregistermarken 11, 12, 13 and 14 are located.
  • the first step primarily serves to determine the position of the color register marks, furthermore, measured values of the color register marks determined in the first step can be used as actual values for color register control and / or cut register control.
  • measured values of the color register marks are used as actual values for controlling the zonal coloration.
  • the determination of the position of the color register marks in the first step can be carried out using known image processing techniques, e.g. By segmentation and feature extraction, or using cross-correlation techniques.
  • one and the same source of illumination can be used, which then has to be designed to be switchable over a wide area.
  • a surface switchable illumination source is at least one switchable element, which either transmits or blocks radiation depending on the switching state or refelcted or reflected at different angles.
  • the or each switchable element of the camera is permeable or in employment
  • the second step in which the field of view of the camera is illuminated exclusively in those sections in which the color register marks, however, at least one of the switchable elements is impermeable or in exhibition.
  • the full-surface illumination of the field of view of the camera in the first step and the selective illumination of the field of view in the second step can also be realized by using different illumination sources.
  • the compensation of scattered light effects during the measurement of the color register marks for determining the color density actual values can additionally or alternatively also be effected via a mathematical correction which depends on image data of the color register marks to be measured and on data on the optics of the camera.
  • a mathematical correction which depends on image data of the color register marks to be measured and on data on the optics of the camera.
  • an angle-independent correction and an angle-dependent correction are preferably performed, by means of which the color density actual values determined during the measurement of the color register marks are corrected.
  • the correction of metrologically recorded color density actual values using an angle-independent correction factor and an angle-dependent correction factor is based on the finding that in a camera a measurement location 16 and a background 15 are imaged and scattered by an optical system 17 of the camera.
  • a light beam is scattered at the optics 17 and gives an offset 20 decreasing in intensity with the scattering angle which is greatest at an edge of a color register mark to be measured.
  • an angle-dependent correction factor that depends on the size of the color register mark can be determined.
  • the angle-independent correction factor and the angle-dependent correction factor are then used to correct color register marks for metrologically recorded color density actual values.
  • the edge produced by covering the full-tone field with a white element is examined in more detail, with a curve fit being carried out by means of a least square fit for the color-independent actual values corrected for angle.
  • the radius of the pressure control element is to be used here for x.
  • the above-described correction of scattered light effects can also be used if sections of the actual subject of the printed printing material are measured as measured objects.
  • the spatially resolved lighting according to Fig. 1 and 2 Use, in which case the subject can be illuminated with white light and metrologically recorded RGB values can be converted into LAB values using a Bradford matrix.
  • the methods according to the invention are preferably used inline within the printing machine for printing on the printing substrate. Alternatively, however, it is also possible for the methods outside the printing press to be used offline for printing on the printing substrate.
