Definitions

  • the invention relates to a folding apparatus of a printing press according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Folding machines of printing presses serve for the formation of folds on printed substrates, wherein in the case of folding machines known from the prior art, a web-shaped printing stock is usually first passed through a first longitudinal folding unit having at least one former, so as to form a longitudinal fold on the web-shaped and preferably not yet severed printing substrate , Starting from the first longitudinal folding unit, the web-shaped printing material is guided in the direction of a cutting unit, which comprises at least one cutting blade cylinder and a groove cylinder cooperating with the cutting blade cylinder. In the area of the cutting unit, copies of the web-shaped substrate are cut off by cross-cutting. The cutting unit is usually followed by a Querfalzmaschine downstream, comprising at least one folding blade and a jaw cylinder.
  • Copies separated at the separating unit are moved in the direction of the jaw cylinder with the aid of the folding blade cylinder.
  • the separated from the web-shaped substrate copies, which are moved by the folding blade cylinder in the direction of the jaw cylinder, are passed to form a first transverse fold from the folding blade cylinder to the jaw cylinder.
  • second Querfalze can be formed between the jaw cylinder and a gripper cylinder, which cooperates with the jaw cylinder.
  • the copies thus provided with a longitudinal fold and with at least one transverse fold reach, starting from the transverse folding unit, into the region of a second longitudinal folding unit, which usually comprises a plurality of folding tables. In the region of the folding tables, second longitudinal folds are formed on the already pre-folded copies which run parallel to the longitudinal fold formed in the first longitudinal folding unit.
  • a so-called magazine structure may also be present, wherein in the magazine structure no longitudinal folding but longitudinal separation of the printing material takes place.
  • folders are also known which have no Querfalzmaschine and / or no second Lijnsfalzhow downstream of the cutting unit.
  • a transverse perforation unit and / or a longitudinal perforation unit can be arranged between the first longitudinal folding unit or the magazine assembly and the cutting unit in order to perforate the substrate pre-folded in the region of the first longitudinal folding unit or cut longitudinally in the region of the magazine structure.
  • the perforations assist in the formation of transverse folds in the transverse folding unit and / or the formation of longitudinal folds in the second longitudinal folding unit.
  • the present invention has the object to provide a novel folder of a printing press.
  • a folding apparatus according to claim 1.
  • at least one sensor is positioned downstream of the cutting unit along the transport path of the specimens by the folding apparatus, which metrologically records the specimens and transmits a measuring signal to a control unit, the control unit based on the measuring signal provided by the or each sensor Determines the position of the copies in the folder relative to a machine angle, and wherein the control device triggers or generates a stopper and / or a warning depending on the thus determined position of the copies and of freely configurable limits for the position of the copies.
  • the stopper monitoring takes place in that the position of copies in the folder is detected with the aid of at least one sensor and a stopper and / or a warning message is triggered or generated depending on freely configurable limit values for the position of the copies.
  • a stopper quick detection can be provided, which allows reliable stopper monitoring even at high production speeds, so as to be able to reliably exclude damage to the folder even at high production speeds.
  • Fig. 1 shows a possible embodiment of a folding apparatus 10 according to the invention of a printing press, wherein the in Fig. 1 has shown a folding former 11 comprehensive first longitudinal folding unit 12, which serves to form a first L jossfalzes on web-like, not yet severed substrate.
  • the first longitudinal folding unit 12 is followed by a cutting unit 13, which serves for the separation of copies of the web-shaped substrate by cross-cutting.
  • the cutting unit 13 comprises a cutting blade cylinder 14 and cooperating with the cutting blade cylinder 14 groove cylinder 15 in the cutting unit 13 separated from the web substrate copies are collected on a collecting cylinder 16 of the folder 10 and fed from the collecting cylinder 16 a second Lssensfalzchez 17, in the area on the separated copies second longitudinal folds can be formed, which run parallel to the first longitudinal fold unit 12 formed in the first longitudinal folds.
  • a longitudinal perforation unit 18 is arranged which serves to form longitudinal perforations on the printing substrate, the longitudinal perforations supporting the formation of the second longitudinal folds in the region of the second longitudinal folding unit 17.
  • an acceleration unit 20 With the help of an acceleration unit 20 are separated from the substrate copies on the peripheral speed of the collecting cylinder 16 can be accelerated to transport the substrate or the copies by the folding unit 10.
  • FIG. 1 illustrated embodiment of a folding apparatus 10 is merely the formation of longitudinal folds on the substrate.
  • the invention should not be limited to this specific embodiment of a folder, but the invention can also be used on folders, which additionally have at least one Querfalzmaschine and optionally a Querperforationsappel.
  • folding apparatus 10 of Fig. 1 is a sensor 22 downstream of the cutting unit 13 and upstream of the collecting cylinder 16 along the transport path of in the region of the cutting unit 13 separated from the printing material 21 positioned.
  • the sensor 22 detects the specimens 21 by measurement and transmits a measurement signal 23 to a control unit 24 (see Fig. 2 ).
  • the control unit 24 is supplied as a further input signal, a signal 25 of a pulse generator, which contains information about the machine angle of the printing press and thus of the folder 10.
  • the control unit 24 determines the position of the copies 21 in the folder relative to the machine angle on the basis of the measurement signal 23 provided by the sensor 22 and on the basis of the signal 25 of the pulse generator. This is preferably done such that the sensor 22 detects a leading edge of the specimens 21 by a corresponding signal edge in the measurement signal 23, the control unit 24 checks in which angular range of the machine angle this signal edge and thus the leading edge of the specimens 21 is located.
  • control unit 24 Depending on the thus determined position of the copies 21 relative to the machine angle and of freely configurable limit values for the position of the copies, which can be supplied to the control unit 24 as a signal 26, the control unit 24 generates an output signal 27 to trigger a stopper and / or a warning message ,
  • control unit 24 concludes that the copies 21 are in proper position Folder and then triggers neither a stopper nor a warning message.
  • the control unit 24 determines whether the position of the specimens 21 determined in the above manner is within a second value range for the machine angle defined by the first upper limit or a second upper limit, or within a third range of values defined by the first lower limit and a second lower limit is for the machine angle.
  • the control unit 24 generates an output signal 27, with which although a warning message but no stopper is triggered.
  • the second upper limit is greater than the first lower limit and the second lower limit is less than the first lower limit.
  • control unit 24 concludes that the copies 21 are not in the correct position in the folder and generates an output signal 27 which is at least a stopper or a stop message and preferably also triggers a warning message.
  • the first lower limit may be 35 ° and the first upper limit may be 45 °, and if the control unit 24 determines that the leading edges of the specimens 21 are within the first range of values defined by these limits between 35 ° and 45 °, it does not trigger a stopper or a warning message.
  • the second upper limit may in this case be 50 ° and the second lower limit may be 30 ° in this case, and if the control unit 24 determines that the position of the leading edges of the specimens within the second range of values is between 45 ° and 50 ° or within the third range of values between 30 ° and 35 °, the same a warning message, but does not trigger a stopper.
  • control unit 24 determines that the position of the front edges of the specimens does not lie in any of these value ranges, the control unit 24 triggers a stop or a stop message and possibly a warning message.
  • a stopper or a stop message and / or a warning message can be triggered or generated.
  • control unit 24 it is possible for the control unit 24 to visualize the position of the copies determined in the above manner in the folding apparatus on a display device and to provide a further output signal 27 for this purpose. So it is z.
  • the control unit 24 it is possible to schematize on a monitor the folder with its individual aggregates, together with the position of the or each sensor positioned along the transport path of the copies by the folder. Then, if a correct position of the copies in the folder is detected by the respective sensor, corresponding copies on the monitor in a first color, z. B. in green, visualized.
  • the specimens can be printed in a second color, z. B. in yellow, visualized. If, on the other hand, a stopper is triggered, then the copies on the monitor can be displayed in a third color, eg. B. in red, in each case adjacent to the respective sensor, which provides the necessary for the respective position detection measurement signals. At each measuring point, the deviation from the setpoint can be displayed. Any deviations can give important information about irregularities in the machine.
  • control unit 24 stores the position of the copies 21 determined in the above manner in a memory unit in order to be able to use the measured values thus stored for later diagnosis purposes.
  • a setpoint for the position of the copies 21 after the second longitudinal fold executed by the second longitudinal folding unit 17 may also be dependent on the position of the second longitudinal fold in order to compensate for the movements of the second longitudinal fold. If the second longitudinal fold z. B. moved relative to the folding unit to the front, then the setpoints for the positions of the copies 21 can be moved to the second longitudinal fold by the same amount forward.
  • the limit values for the position of the specimens, with which the metrologically determined position of the specimens is compared, can therefore be changed depending on this.
