  • these parts may also be configured as dockable and detachable modules.
  • the linear printing machine has at least two printing stations, which are arranged one after the other in the conveying direction of the hollow bodies, so that the hollow bodies are transported by the linear printing machine through the first printing station and then through the second printing station. After the second printing station, further printing stations can be arranged, wherein the number of printing stations can be predetermined by the way in which the hollow bodies to be printed are to be printed.

  • the printing stations of the linear printing machine are prepared docking stations.
  • a self-sufficient pressure module can be connected to the machine base part via the docking station of a printing station.
  • Autarkes pressure module means that the pressure module is drive and preferably also control moderately independent of the machine base part, that is, the pressure module has its own pressure module drive and preferably its own pressure module control.
  • the printing module can therefore be operated independently of the machine base part.
  • the printing stations designed as docking stations of a linear printing machine or multiple linear printing machines of the same type are identical, that is, they each have the same prepared connection points and / or interfaces. All print modules have mating connection points or counterparts matching the connection points and interfaces, so that each of the print modules in each of the print stations can be connected to the base machine part. Any printing module can thus be connected to the printing machine base part in a linear printing machine either in the first printing station, in the second printing station or in any other printing station.
  • the printing modules can be placed on rails, for example by means of a forklift or a overhead crane, on which they can then be moved up to the machine base part and securely locked in the production position.
  • the docking can produce a secure production connection directly between the machine base part and the printing module, for example via latching elements or screw connections which can be produced after docking.
  • the printing module may for example be mounted on a carriage and be docked with this carriage to the machine base part.

  • the service module preferably has the same interfaces and connection points to the print module as each of the print stations.
  • the individual controllers of the printing modules which can be connected to each other, for example, after docking in the printing station via interfaces with a data bus, together can form a decentralized controller for the printing process, which alone controls the printing process.
  • the printing modules are different printing units with which the hollow bodies can be printed either with screen printing, flexographic printing, offset printing, cold stamping, hot stamping, laser color transfer or with inkjet.
  • Each of these different printing modules can be used in each of the printing stations. That is, at n printing stations images can be printed on the hollow body with a maximum of n different printing processes. Only the production process decides on which printing station of the linear printing machine which printing module is used.
  • a printing module designed as a flexographic printing unit can be used in a production process at the first printing station; in another production process, a printing module formed by an offset printing unit can be used at precisely this point.
  • each print station can receive every print module, no matter which process it prints.
  • the linear printing machine has a positioning system which ensures that the hollow bodies are transported as accurately as possible to the printing stations and from printing station to printing station.
  • a mandrel which carries the hollow body to be printed have a position mark, which must have a certain position when the hollow body enters the first printing station. Keeping this position can be detected, for example via suitable sensors and monitored by the machine control. Since the mandrels are preferably rotationally driven, the machine control can determine the deviation before the start of printing when determining a deviation between the actual position and desired position of the dome by controlling the mandrel drive. But each mandrel must have a single drive and can be individually accelerated or decelerated via the machine control. The comparison between the setpoint and the actual position can be repeated each time when moving into a printing station.
  • the deviation detected by the machine controller can be sent via the machine controller to the module controller of the affected print module, so that the module controller can delay the starting of the printing unit of the printing module, for example.
  • the position of the hollow body itself can be monitored, which is advantageous because misprints can be avoided due to a hollow body slipped on the mandrel during the printing process in the direction of rotation.
  • This monitoring of the register position can be achieved by a marking on the hollow body, which is detected by means of a signal belonging to the machine base and signal-connected with the machine control sensor.
  • the sensor sends a signal to the machine control system, which calculates actual position data for the hollow body from the signal by means of an algorithm and compares these with target position data stored in, for example, a memory in the machine control. If the machine control determines a deviation between the nominal position and the actual position, a corresponding correction signal can be sent to the module control.
  • each printing module can have a sensor, with which the register-accurate position of the hollow body to be printed can preferably be controlled before the start of printing. If this sensor detects a deviation, for example, it sends a signal to the module control. The received signal is processed in the module controller and the module controller then initiates the correction directly or via the machine control.
  • the driven or free to rotate about its axis of rotation mandrels are mounted in a connected to the transport unit or formed by the transport unit mandrel storage. If the mandrels are driven, then they can be connected to a drive, for example via an externally toothed spur foot, via a gear. Everybody can do that

  • the endless belt or the endless chain between two spaced-mounted rollers can be stretched, wherein at least one of the two rollers is driven by a motor.
  • the two rolls preferably have the same diameter, so that the transport path as a whole can be described as follows: two parallel straight lines, which are connected at their two ends, each with a semicircular curve with an identical diameter.
  • the rollers may also have different diameters and / or at least the linear transport path section having the printing stations may be divided into two legs by a third roller, for example a non-driven deflection roller then be articulated triangular transport path.
  • the hollow body on the transport unit clocked by the linear printing machine out.
  • the cycle time corresponds to the longest printing time of a hollow body by a printing module plus the travel time from one printing station to the next, the feed. Since different printing processes can require different printing times, and not all printing processes are used in every production, the cycle time can be adapted to the respective production; it is adjustable in this sense.
  • the linear printing machine comprises at least one drying station, which preferably lies in the transport direction of the hollow body after the last printing station.
  • a drying station can also be arranged between each two printing stations, so that drying takes place immediately after each printing operation by means of a printing module.
