Abstract

The method involves performing a start-up sequence using a predetermined preset parameter that is specific to a rotary printing press and/or a print job for a color register adjustment, a cut-off compensator control, and an ink density control. The press is stopped, where copies printed during the sequence are evaluated with respect to a color register, a cut-off compensator, and an ink density, and the parameters are adjusted. Another start-up sequence is performed, where the adjusted parameters are used for printing, when defined printing press speeds are reached and/or exceeded.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Betreiben einer Rollendruckmaschine nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a method for operating a web-fed printing press according to the preamble of claim 1.

Bei Rollendruckmaschinen, wie z. B. bei Zeitungsdruckmaschinen, handelt es sich um äußert komplexe und hochproduktive Maschinensysteme. Beim Betreiben einer Rollendruckmaschine ist das Anfahren derselben einer der komplexesten Vorgänge während der Produktion. So muss das Anfahren einer Rollendruckmaschine in einem minutengenauen Zeitplan erfolgen, der einerseits vom Redaktionsschluss und andererseits von dem Zeitpunkt abhängig ist, ab welchem makulaturfreie Druckprodukte im Versandraum vorliegen müssen. Aufgrund steigender Papierpreise muss darüber hinaus während des Anfahrens einer Rollendruckmaschine das Erzeugen von Anfahrmakulatur reduziert werden, wobei unter dem Begriff der Anfahrmakulatur die Anzahl von Druckprodukten verstanden wird, die beim Anfahren hergestellt wird, jedoch noch nicht die erforderlichen Qualitätskriterien erfüllt und demnach nicht an Kunden ausgeliefert werden kann.For web presses, such. As in newspaper printing machines, it is extremely complex and highly productive machine systems. When operating a web-fed printing press, starting it up is one of the most complex processes during production. Thus, the startup of a web press must be done on an exact-to-the-minute schedule, which depends on the one hand from the editorial deadline and on the other hand, from the time from which waste-free printed products must be available in the mailroom. Due to rising paper prices, the production of start-up waste also has to be reduced during startup of a web-fed printing press, the term start-up waste being understood to mean the number of printed products that are produced during start-up but have not yet met the required quality criteria and are therefore not delivered to customers can be.

Die Entscheidung, ob ein Druckprodukt die Qualitätsanforderungen erfüllt oder Makulatur ist, erfolgt unter Berücksichtigung der Qualitätskriterien Farbdichte, Farbregister und Schnittregister, wobei diese Qualitätskriterien auf allen Seiten des Druckprodukts erfüllt bzw. eingehalten werden müssen.The decision as to whether a print product fulfills the quality requirements or is waste paper is made taking into account the quality criteria color density, color register and cut register, whereby these quality criteria must be met or complied with on all pages of the printed product.

Zur Beeinflussung der Farbdichte, des Farbregisters und des Schnittregisters umfasst eine Rollendruckmaschine eine Farbdichteregeleinrichtung, eine Farbregisteregeleinrichtung und eine Schnittregisterregeleinrichtung. Derartige Regeleinrichtungen sind dem hier angesprochenen Fachmann geläufig und bedürfen daher keiner näheren Erläuterung.For influencing the color density, the color register and the cut register, a web press includes a color density control means, a color register control means and a cut register control means. Such control devices are familiar to the person skilled in the art and therefore require no further explanation.

Um innerhalb kürzester Zeit nach dem Anfahren einer Rollendruckmaschine makulaturfrei zu drucken, müssen die Farbregisterregeleinrichtung, die Farbdichteregeleinrichtung und die Schnittregisterregeleinrichtung innerhalb kürzester Zeit mit Parametersätzen betrieben werden, unter Verwendung derer, die Qualitätskriterien auf allen Seiten des Druckprodukts eingehalten werden können. Bislang ist aus dem Stand der Technik kein Verfahren bekannt, mit Hilfe dessen dies gewährleistet werden kann. Es besteht daher Bedarf an einem Verfahren zum Betreiben einer Rollendruckmaschine, bei welchem innerhalb kürzester Zeit unter Minimierung von Anfahrmakulatur Druckprodukte gedruckt werden können, welche die Qualitätskriterien Farbdichte, Farbregister und Schnittregister erfüllen.In order to print waste-free within a very short time after start-up of a web-fed printing press, the color register control device, the color density control device and the cut register control device must be operated with parameter sets within a very short time using those quality criteria can be adhered to on all pages of the printed product. So far, no method is known from the prior art, with the help of which this can be ensured. There is therefore a need for a method for operating a web-fed printing press, in which printed products can be printed within a very short time while minimizing start-up waste, which fulfill the quality criteria color density, color register and cut register.

Hiervon ausgehend liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein neuartiges Verfahren zum Betreiben einer Rollendruckmaschine zu schaffen.On this basis, the present invention has the object to provide a novel method for operating a web-fed printing machine.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Verfahren zum Betreiben einer Rollendruckmaschine gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst. Erfindungsgemäß werden nacheinander folgende Schritte durchlaufen: a) eine erste Anfahrsequenz wird unter Verwendung von für die Farbregisterregelung, die Schnittregisterregelung und die Farbdichteregelung vorgegebenen, druckmaschinenspezifischen und/oder druckauftragspezifischen Voreinstellparametern ausgeführt; b) anschließend wird die Rollendruckmaschine gestoppt, wobei während der ersten Anfahrsequenz gedruckte Druckexemplare hinsichtlich des Farbregisters, des Schnittregisters und der Farbdichte beurteilt werden, und wobei abhängig von dieser Beurteilung während des Stillstands der Druckmaschine Voreinstellparameter für die Farbregisterregelung und/oder die Schnittregisterregelung und/oder Farbdichteregelung angepasst werden; c) darauffolgend wird eine zweite Anfahrsequenz ausgeführt, wobei hierbei die während des Stillstands angepassten Voreinstellparameter für die Farbregisterregelung und/oder die Schnittregisterregelung und/oder die Farbdichteregelung erst dann zum Drucken verwendet werden, wenn definierte Druckmaschinengeschwindigkeiten erreicht bzw. überschritten werden.This object is achieved by a method for operating a web-fed printing press according to claim 1. According to the invention, the following steps are carried out successively: a) a first start-up sequence is carried out using presetting parameters predetermined for the color register control, the cut-off register control and the color density control, specific to the press and / or print job; b) then the web press is stopped, wherein during the first start-up printed copies are evaluated in terms of the color register, the cut register and the color density, and depending on this judgment during the standstill of the printing machine preset parameters for the color register control and / or the cut register control and / or Adjusted color density control; c) Subsequently, a second start-up sequence is carried out, whereby in this case the presetting parameters adapted during standstill for the color register control and / or the cut register control and / or the color density control are only used for printing when defined press speeds are reached or exceeded.

Mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren wird vorgeschlagen, eine erste Anfahrsequenz unter Verwendung von druckmaschinenspezifischen und/oder druckauftragsspezifischen Voreinstellparametern für die Schnittregisterregelung, die Farbregisterregelung und die Farbdichteregelung auszuführen. Anschließend hieran wird die Rollendruckmaschine gestoppt, um während des Stillstands in der ersten Anfahrsequenz gedruckte Druckexemplare hinsichtlich des Farbregisters, des Schnittregisters und der Farbdichte zu beurteilen.With the method according to the invention, it is proposed to carry out a first start-up sequence using press-specific and / or print job-specific presetting parameters for the cutting register control, the color register control and the color density control. Subsequently, the web-fed printing machine is stopped to judge printed copies in terms of the color register, the cut register and the color density during standstill in the first start-up sequence.

Während des Stillstands werden erfindungsgemäß abhängig von dieser Beurteilung die Voreinstellparameter für die Farbregisterregelung und/oder die Schnittregisterregelung und/oder die Farbdichteregelung angepasst. In einer sich anschließenden zweiten Anfahrsequenz werden die angepassten Voreinstellparameter verwendet, nämlich abhängig von dem Erreichen bzw. Überschreiten definierter Druckmaschinengeschwindigkeiten. Mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren ist es möglich, innerhalb kürzester Zeit unter Anfahrmakulaturminimierung eine Rollendruckmaschine anzufahren.During the standstill, the preset parameters for the color register control and / or the cut register control and / or the color density control are adapted according to the invention, depending on this assessment. In a subsequent second start-up sequence, the adjusted presetting parameters are used, namely depending on the achievement or exceeding of defined press speeds. With the method according to the invention, it is possible to approach a web-fed printing machine within a very short time while minimizing start-up.

Jede der Druckeinheiten 11 eines jeden Druckturms 10 verfügt im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel über vier Druckwerke 13, wobei von den Druckwerken 13 jeweils nur Übertragungszylinder 14 und Formzylinder 15 gezeigt sind. Neben den Drucktürmen 10 und den Rollenwechslern 12 umfasst die Rollendruckmaschine der Fig. 1 weiterhin eine Wendeeinheit 16, einen zwei Falztrichter 17 aufweisenden Falzaufbau sowie einen Falzapparat 18. Bei der in Fig. 1 dargestellten Rollendruckmaschine handelt es sich um eine Zeitungsdruckmaschine, auf welcher als Druckprodukte Zeitungsprodukte gedruckt werden.The present invention relates to a method for operating a web-fed printing press, namely for starting a web-fed printing press while minimizing the time required for starting up and minimizing the waste produced during startup. showed exemplary embodiment three printing towers 10 each comprising two printing units 11 positioned vertically one above the other, wherein each printing tower 10 is assigned a roll changer 12. Each of the printing units 11 of each printing tower 10 has four printing units 13 in the exemplary embodiment shown, with only printing cylinders 14 and forme cylinders 15 being shown by the printing units 13. In addition to the printing towers 10 and the roll changers 12 includes the web printing press of Fig. 1 Furthermore, a turning unit 16, a two former hopper 17 having folding structure and a folding apparatus 18. In the in Fig. 1 The web-fed printing press shown is a newspaper printing press on which newspaper products are printed as printed products.

Um qualitativ hochwertige Zeitungsdruckprodukte herzustellen, umfasst die in Fig. 1 exemplarisch dargestellte Rollendruckmaschine eine nicht dargestellte Farbregisterregeleinrichtung, eine nicht dargestellte Schnittregisterregeleinrichtung und eine nicht dargestellte Farbdichteregeleinrichtung, um das Farbregister, das Schnittregister und die Farbdichte, welche jeweils wichtige Qualitätskriterien für ein Zeitungsprodukt darstellen, zu regeln.To produce high quality newsprint products, the in Fig. 1 An example of a web-fed printing press shown is a color register control device (not shown), a cut register control device (not shown) and a color density control device (not shown) for controlling the color register, the cut register and the color density, which each represent important quality criteria for a newspaper product.

Zum Anfahren der in Fig. 1 dargestellten Zeitungsdruckmaschine wird im Sinne der hier vorliegenden Erfindung vorgeschlagen, dass in einer ersten Anfahrsequenz druckmaschinenspezifische und/oder druckauftragsspezifische Voreinstellparameter für die Farbregisterreglung, die Schnittregisterregelung und die Farbdichteregelung verwendet werden. Bei den in der ersten Anfahrsequenz als Voreinstellparameter für die Farbregisterregelung verwendeten Parametern handelt es sich um solche Parameter, die bei der Inbetriebnahme der Rollendruckmaschine ermittelt wurden und demnach druckmaschinenspezifisch sind. Diese druckmaschinenspezifischen Voreinstellparameter sind vorzugsweise in einem Speicher eines Steuerungssystems der Rollendruckmaschine gespeichert und werden während der ersten Anfahrsequenz als Voreinstellparameter für die Farbregisterregelung verwendet.To start the in Fig. 1 illustrated newspaper printing machine is proposed in the sense of the present invention that are used in a first start-up printing machine specific and / or print job-specific preset parameters for the color register control, the cut register control and the color density control. The parameters used as default parameters for the color register control in the first start-up sequence are those parameters which were determined during the start-up of the web press and are accordingly specific to the press. These press-specific presetting parameters are preferably stored in a memory of a control system of the web-fed printing press and are used during the first start-up sequence as default parameters for the color register control.

Bei den in der ersten Anfahrsequenz als Voreinstellparameter für die Farbdichteregelung verwendeten Parametern handelt es sich um druckauftragspezifische Parameter, die aus der Druckvorstufe abhängig vom zu druckenden Druckauftrag bereitgestellt werden, nämlich von einem Druckvorstufesystem. Diese druckauftragspezifischen Voreinstellparameter für die Farbdichteregelung werden bei der ersten Anfahrsequenz verwendet.The parameters used as default parameters for the color density control in the first start-up sequence are print job-specific parameters which are provided from the prepress stage as a function of the print job to be printed, namely by a prepress system. These print job-specific color density control preset parameters are used in the first startup sequence.

Als Voreinstellparameter für die Schnittregisterregelung werden bei der ersten Anfahrsequenz Parameter verwendet, die vom Bahnweg und der Seitenzahl des Druckprodukts abhängig sind, also die einerseits druckauftragsspezifisch und andererseits druckmaschinenspezifisch sind. Diese Voreinstellparameter für die Schnittregisterregelung werden vorzugsweise von einem Produktionsplanungssystem der Druckmaschine bereitgestellt.As preset parameters for the cutting-edge control, parameters are used in the first start-up sequence which depend on the web path and the page number of the printed product, that is, on the one hand specific to the print job and, on the other hand, specific to the printing press. These default parameters for the cutting register control are preferably provided by a production planning system of the printing machine.

Die in der ersten Anfahrsequenz verwendeten Voreinstellparameter für die Farbregisterregelung, die Schnittregisterregelung und die Farbdichteregelung werden automatisch zur Verfügung gestellt und automatisch für die erste Anfahrsequenz beim Anfahren der Rollendruckmaschine verwendet.The preset parameters for the color register control, the cut register control and the color density control used in the first start sequence are automatically made available and automatically used for the first start sequence when starting the web press.

Anschließend an die erste Anfahrsequenz wird die Rollendruckmaschine gestoppt, nämlich entweder nach Ablauf einer definierten Zeitspanne für die erste Anfahrsequenz oder nach dem Drucken einer definierten Anzahl von Zeitungsprodukten. Nach dem Stoppen der Rollendruckmaschine werden während der ersten Anzahlsequenz gedruckte Zeitungsdruckprodukte bei gestoppter Rollendruckmaschine hinsichtlich des Farbregisters, des Schnittregisters und der Farbdichte beurteilt, wobei abhängig von dieser Beurteilung bei gestoppter und damit stehender Rollendruckmaschine Voreinstellparameter für die Farbregisterregelung und/oder die Schnittregisterregelung und/oder die Farbdichteregelung angepasst werden. stands der Rollendruckmaschine sowohl die Voreinstellparameter für die Farbregisterregelung als auch für die Schnittregisterregelung als auch für die Farbdichteregelung anpassbar sind, dass diese Anpassung jedoch abhängig von der Beurteilung der während der ersten Anfahrsequenz gedruckten Zeitungsdruckprodukte erfolgt. Die Beurteilung der während der ersten Anfahrsequenz gedruckten Zeitungsdruckprodukte sowie die hiervon abhängige Anpassung der Voreinstellparameter für die Farbregisterreglegung und/oder die Schnittregisterregelung und/oder die Farbdichteregelung kann automatisch oder automatisiert erfolgen. Unter einer automatischen Beurteilung und Anpassung soll ein Vorgang verstanden werden, bei welchem bedruckt gedruckte Produkte automatisch von Sensoren beurteilt und abhängig hiervon automatisch die Voreinstellparameter angepasst werden. Unter einer automatisierten Beurteilung und Anpassung soll verstanden werden, dass ein Drucker die während der ersten Anfahrsequenz gedruckten Zeitungsexemplare beurteilt und abhängig hiervon die Voreinstellparameter verändert bzw. anpasst.Subsequent to the first start-up sequence, the web press is stopped, namely either after a defined period of time for the first start-up sequence or after printing a defined number of newspaper products. After stopping the web-fed printing machine during the first number sequence printed newspaper printing products are judged with respect to the color register, the cut register and the color density with stopped web press, depending on this assessment with stopped and thus stationary web press presetting parameters for the color register control and / or the cut register control and / or Color density control can be adjusted. As well as the presetting parameters for the color register control as well as for the cut register control and for the color density control can be adjusted levels of the web press, but this adjustment is done depending on the assessment of the printed during the first start-up newspaper printing products. The evaluation of the newspaper print products printed during the first start-up sequence as well as the adjustment of the preset parameters for the color register control and / or the cut register control and / or the color density control can be automatic or automated. An automatic assessment and adaptation is understood to mean a process in which printed printed products are automatically evaluated by sensors and, depending on this, the preset parameters are automatically adjusted. An automated assessment and adaptation is understood to mean that a printer assesses the newspaper copies printed during the first start-up sequence and, depending on this, alters or adjusts the default parameters.

Darauffolgend wird im Sinne der Erfindung eine zweite Anfahrsequenz ausgeführt, nämlich unter Verwendung der während des Stillstands angepassten Voreinstellparameter für die Farbregisterregelung und/oder die Schnittregisterregelung und/oder die Farbdichteregelung, wobei zumindest einige Voreinstellparameter erst dann während der zweiten Anfahrsequenz tatsächlich verwendet werden, wenn definierte Druckmaschinengeschwindigkeiten erreicht bzw. überschritten werden.Subsequently, for the purposes of the invention, a second start-up sequence is executed, namely using the preset parameters for the color register control and / or the cut register control and / or the color density control adjusted during standstill, wherein at least some preset parameters are actually used during the second startup sequence, if defined Printing press speeds are reached or exceeded.

So werden während des Stillstands angepasste Voreinstellparameter für die Schnittregisterregelung unmittelbar bei Start der zweiten Anfahrsequenz verwendet, also unmittelbar dann, wenn die Druckmaschinengeschwindigkeit von Null abweicht. Die während des Stillstands angepassten Voreinstellparameter für die Farbdichteregelung werden dann verwendet, wenn nach dem Start der zweiten Anfahrsequenz eine erste definierte Druckmaschinengeschwindigkeit erreicht bzw. überschritten wird.Thus, during standstill, adjusted default parameters are used for the cutting-edge control directly at the start of the second start-up sequence, ie immediately when the printing machine speed deviates from zero. The presetting parameters for color density control adjusted during standstill are used when a first defined printing press speed is reached or exceeded after the start of the second startup sequence.

Die während des Stillstands angepassten Voreinstellparameter für die Farbregisterregelung werden dann verwendet, wenn nach dem Start der zweiten Anfahrsequenz eine zweite definierte Druckmaschinengeschwindigkeit erreicht bzw. überschritten wird, wobei die zweite definierte Druckmaschinengeschwindigkeit größer als die erste definierte Druckmaschinengeschwindigkeit ist.The color register control presetting parameters adjusted during the standstill are used when, after the start of the second startup sequence, a second defined print engine speed is reached or exceeded, wherein the second defined print engine speed is greater than the first defined print engine speed.

Nach einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der hier vorliegenden Erfindung werden den Druckeinheiten 11 nachgelagerte, nicht gezeigte Zugorgane, die dem Transport der bedruckten Bedruckstoffbahnen dienen, in eine Lageregelung einer Hauptantriebsachse der Rollendruckmaschine eingebunden, wodurch sich die Schnittregisterregelung verbessern lässt. Weiterhin werden vorzugsweise Zugorgane mit einem hohen Reibwert bzw. einem hohen Gripwert verwendet, um die Schnittregisterregelung zu verbessern. Dann, wenn Zugorgane mit einem hohen Reibwert verwendet werden, kann ein Schlupf zwischen den Zugorganen und der zu transportierenden Bedruckstoffbahn minimiert werden.According to an advantageous development of the present invention, the printing units 11 downstream traction elements, not shown, which serve to transport the printed substrate webs, integrated into a position control of a main drive axis of the web press, which can be the cutting register control can be improved. Furthermore, tension members with a high coefficient of friction or a high grip value are preferably used in order to improve the cutting register control. Then, when tension members having a high coefficient of friction are used, slippage between the tension members and the substrate sheet to be transported can be minimized.

Mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren kann innerhalb kurzer Zeit ein Anfahren einer Rollendruckmaschine unter Minimierung von Anfahrmakulatur realisiert werden. Bereits mit der zweiten Anfahrsequenz können verkaufsfähige Zeitungsdruckprodukte hergestellt werden.With the method according to the invention, starting of a web-fed printing press can be achieved within a short time while minimizing start-up waste. Already with the second start-up sequence, salable newspaper printing products can be produced.
