Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a device for monitoring the fitting processing of web-like materials in installations according to the preamble of claim 1 or according to the preamble of claim 13.
  • the processing of web-like materials such as printed products is carried out at increasingly higher web speed.
  • the processing also includes further processing processes such as perforating, stamping, embossing, creasing, painting, etc. in an in-line operation, i. even while the train is running, without the product resting.
  • web-tracking devices have become commonplace which illuminate the web by means of a stroboscope and produce images therewith.
  • the use of video cameras can achieve a high quality, still image that allows a very good evaluation of the quality of a print.
  • German utility model application DE 200 07 621 The company Drello GmbH is therefore proposed a device that works with two cameras already used for conventional web observation and both with opposite cameras and with cameras that can work with a relative offset to each other. This is achieved by simultaneously displaying one and the same mark on the web on both sides of the captured image.
  • each camera image contains one and the same reference point, at which the printer can then orient himself in the assessment of a mutual fit of the images applied on different sides.
  • a disadvantage of this method is that a not very simple additional device must be used and both cameras must be arranged at least so close to each other that the same marking device (there is proposed a laser) still comes to rest in the image field of both cameras. Such an arrangement is often not possible for reasons of web guide in the machine and other mechanical engineering conditions.
  • a video link observation system consisting in each case of an image acquisition module 1 opposite the front of a printed web 7 and an image acquisition module 2 opposite the back side of the same printed web, an adjustment module 14, a synchronization module 10, an image storage module 12, an image evaluation module 15 and display module 13 is installed in the machine (FIG. Fig. 1 ).
  • the two image acquisition modules consisting of at least one camera, a lens, an associated illumination, an electronic control unit and possibly adjusting motors and a mechanical device, are designed as a compact assembly. Both image pickup modules can each be moved along a traverse 3, 4 transversely to the web running direction.
  • a rotary encoder 8 is mounted as a format clock module which generates one format pulse on one revolution generated, which is forwarded to the synchronous module 10.
  • a friction wheel is mounted on the moving web as Bahnwegmessmodul 9, the scope of which rolls passively on the web, travels over a revolution a well-known distance, thereby emits a known number of pulses, which are forwarded as a wegproportionale information to a synchronous module 10 become. It is advantageous for a conversion if the circumference of the friction wheel makes up an integer fraction of a meter.
  • the image acquisition times for the two cameras are calculated from the aforementioned incoming information as well as previously known geometric information and / or information entered via the operating module 14, such as the distance between the image acquisition modules 1 and 2 and the thickness of the web material.
  • the screen is divided into 2 parts here in the display module 13, with the front side image being shown on one side and the back side image being precisely positioned relative to one another on the other.
  • the image is recorded and displayed in the web running direction exactly aligned.
  • the distance between the center lines of the camera images is measured by means of a highly accurate scale printed on virtually non-stretchable material of known thickness. This measure is converted to a scale thickness zero, so that in this way the normalized distance between the two camera positions is determined. This measure is entered, for example, via the operating module and stored in the synchronous module. If the system additionally has an image processing module 15, this distance can also be automatically calculated from features of two recorded images of such a scale.
  • the friction wheel 9 If the friction wheel 9 is located in front of a deflection roller 16 on the inner side of the track, then the distance normalized to zero between the two cameras 1, 2 is equal to the true path traveled by the friction wheel 9. If the friction wheel 9 is mounted on a side opposite to a deflection roller, then this length must be converted accordingly.
  • the material thickness of the printing substrate is then entered via the input module 14 of the video web monitoring system and the effective distance to be expected of the cameras is calculated by the synchronizing module 10 with the aid of the data for a thickness zero and the thickness information.
  • the length of a format i. the length, which constitutes exactly one repetition of a pressure, is effected by a revolution of a format cylinder 5, for example of the printing plate cylinder, and therefore also represents the distance between two format pulses (zero momentum) from the rotary encoder 8 mounted there.
  • the friction wheel 9 rolls over a certain length, with exactly the length of the printed product stretched at this point passing between 2 format pulses. In this way, the current stretched format length is determined as the rotational path which the friction wheel 9 has covered.
  • a first image is taken from a first side of the path through the associated image acquisition module. This image is stored in the image storage module 12 as a first image. From the above-mentioned data is subsequently calculated by the synchronous module 10 by which distance the to be made on the second side recording of the made on the first page shot has to be made so that it meets exactly the same point of the web, as the first made Picture of the other side of the track. The synchronous module 10 then initiates an image acquisition in the second image acquisition module with a corresponding delay. This image is stored in the image storage module 12 as a second image.
  • a first position is read from the memory and used for a first image pickup device as pre-positioning, while based thereon by means of the abovementioned Method of the moment of recording the second image pickup device is calculated.
  • sources for example, precursor information
  • Both stored images are shown by a display module 13, for example, now arranged on the screen that comes exactly to lie in the web running direction in the middle of the screen exactly the center of the two pictures taken in each case.
  • a crosshair or another marking can additionally be superimposed by the display module into the image, which can still be advantageously displaced in its position via the operating unit.
  • the operator can accurately recognize the current mutual position of the machining results on both sides and correct if necessary by intervention.
  • roller 34 Fig. 2
  • two friction wheels 31, 33 are then used, for example, which, as already described above, each determine the different format lengths and transmit them to the synchronization module.
  • the synchronous module then calculates the respective image recording times taking into account the associated path expansions.
  • both methods can also be used in combination, so that, for example, the material thickness and the change in the recording time due to material expansion are taken into account in the calculation of the recording time and only the changes in the geometry of the image resulting from differences in strain are correctively compensated for the representation become.
  • an automatic evaluation of the images in an image processing module added to the system may result in an automatic evaluation Determining the offset in the register of the top and bottom done by a target position with a recorded actual position is compared by a suitable image evaluation and displayed the determined offset displayed or compensated by a control device.
  • the procedure can also be modified such that one of the images for reproduction in the ratio of the measured image sizes measured during the calibration is reduced or enlarged, wherein the image processing module previously makes a corresponding geometric processing such as compression or elongation.
  • the magnification of the two recording modules can be determined in that at least one of them receives a pattern of known size and the image scale is determined therefrom in the image evaluation module.
  • the magnification of at least one camera is changed until it corresponds to a given imaging scale sufficiently well.
  • both recording modules can use a pattern of known size.
  • the scale can be arranged outside the material web region, the image acquisition module approaching this position before image acquisition and determining and / or adjusting the image scale.
  • the images or sub-images may be altered to have the same or different predetermined elongation. Furthermore, it is possible to determine an assignment of two images or partial images by the target result of a subsequent further processing of the processed material web 7.
  • a further advantageous embodiment which is based on the use of an additional image processing module 15 (FIG. Fig. 1 ), it allows to save the Reibradan Aunt by the format length from the distance of the repetition of two significant areas of the printed periodically repeating print image is determined. Such areas can also be trademarks.
  • the correction of the format length is not taken into account by the fact that this is included in the delay between the recording of the one side and the recording of the second page, but rather the representation of one of the two fields on the monitor by exactly this Amount shifted takes place while the recording always takes place with a constant shift of the image triggering.
  • the determination of the register from front to back is limited in the case of a visual evaluation on the monitor by the resolution of the monitor, i. Only location information with a resolution of 1 pixel can be displayed reliably. Offsetting the correction in the last-mentioned manner is therefore permissible in every case and does not lead to any reduction in the accuracy in the method.
  • the display of the top and bottom images is done on the same monitor side by side or with each other. For an optimal recognizability of the register offset, both images are displayed in the same magnification.
  • a position determined by the printer for the evaluation of the register or also determined, for example, by the method described above under [00025] can be marked in print on an image by displaying a characteristic pixel with the center of a crosshair displayed on the monitor by the display unit Agreement is brought. This marker is superimposed in the second image at the same position and thus serves as a reference for estimating the register offset between top and bottom.
  • image display is the superposition of a top image with the associated image of the bottom.
  • the mixing ratio of the images can be set, for example by the operator, to an optimum transparency for the visual observation.
