In Figure 1 is shown a rotary printing machine according to the invention, designated by the general reference 2.
La machine d'impression 2 comprend un dérouleur 4, quatre unités d'impression 6, un dispositif de traction 8 et un dispositif de découpe et d'empilage 10. La machine d'impression 2 comprend en outre un dispositif de saisie de bande 14 et un dispositif de poudrage 16.The printing machine 2 comprises a unwinder 4, four printing units 6, a traction device 8 and a cutting and stacking device 10. The printing machine 2 further comprises a tape gripper 14 and a dusting device 16.
La machine d'impression 2 pourrait comprendre un nombre quelconque d'unités d'impression 6, en théorie, de un à n.The printing machine 2 could comprise any number of printing units 6, in theory, from one to n.
Le dérouleur 4 est adapté pour dérouler une bande à imprimer continue 18. La bande à imprimer 18 est une bande de papier couché. Le papier couché est un papier qui comprend une couche de revêtement, par exemple en kaolin ou en craie, améliorant les propriétés mécaniques ou optiques du papier. Ce papier permet d'obtenir un produit imprimé de haute qualité. En variante, il est possible que la bande à imprimer soit une bande de papier non couché. La machine d'impression 2 définit un trajet d'impression de la bande 18 entre le dérouleur 4, à travers les unités d'impression 6, le dispositif de saisie de bande 14, le dispositif de poudrage 16, et le dispositif de traction 8, jusqu'au dispositif de découpe et d'empilage 10.The unwinder 4 is adapted to unwind a continuous print tape 18. The print tape 18 is a coated paper web. Coated paper is a paper that includes a coating layer, for example of kaolin or chalk, improving the mechanical or optical properties of the paper. This paper makes it possible to obtain a printed product of high quality. Alternatively, it is possible that the tape to be printed is an uncoated paper tape. The printing machine 2 defines a print path of the web 18 between the unwinder 4, through the printing units 6, the web gripper 14, the dusting device 16, and the pulling device 8 , up to the cutting and stacking device 10.
Chaque unité d'impression 6 comporte un dispositif encreur 20 qui est muni d'un réservoir d'encre 22 comprenant de l'encre 24 prévue pour l'impression sur une bande de papier 18. L'encre 24 utilisée dans le cadre de l'invention sera expliquée ci-dessous. Chaque dispositif encreur 20 comprend en outre un rouleau de transfert d'encre 26 pour le transfert de l'encre 24 à des rouleaux d'impression 28 (voir ci-après). Les unités d'impression 6 comprennent des rouleaux d'impression 28 qui sont adaptés pour imprimer sur la bande de papier 18.Each printing unit 6 comprises an inking device 20 which is provided with an ink tank 22 comprising ink 24 intended for printing on a strip of paper 18. The ink 24 used in the context of the The invention will be explained below. Each ink device 20 further comprises an ink transfer roller 26 for transferring ink 24 to printing rollers 28 (see below). The printing units 6 comprise printing rollers 28 which are adapted to print on the paper web 18.
Le dispositif de découpe et d'empilage 10 est adapté pour découper la bande à imprimer 18 en des feuilles individuelles 30 et pour produire une pile 31 des feuilles individuelles découpées. Le dispositif de traction 8 est situé en aval de l'unité d'impression 6 la plus en aval et en amont du dispositif de découpe et d'empilage 10. Ce dispositif de traction 8 est adapté pour appliquer une tension mécanique déterminée sur la bande 18 sortant de l'unité d'impression 6 la plus en aval. Comme on le voit sur la figure 1 , la machine d'impression 2 est adaptée pour transporter la bande imprimée 18 en libre suspension et à l'air ambiant sur tout le trajet entre l'unité d'impression 6 la plus en aval et le dispositif de traction 8, éventuellement à l'exception du dispositif de saisie de bande 14 et du dispositif de poudrage 16. En outre, la machine d'impression 2 est aussi adaptée pour transporter la bande imprimée 18 à l'air ambiant sur tout le trajet entre le dispositif de traction 8 et le dispositif de découpe et d'empilage 10. Ainsi, la machine d'impression 2 de la figure 1 ne comporte pas de sécheur et a un encombrement faible. La machine d'impression 2 selon la variante montrée sur la figure 2 diffère de la machine d'impression 2 montrée sur la figure 1 par le fait qu'entre le dispositif de saisie de bande 14 et le dispositif de traction 8 est disposé un sécheur 32 à rayons infrarouges à travers lequel est menée la bande imprimée 18. Le sécheur 32 à rayons infrarouges peut être remplacé par un autre dispositif de séchage par chauffage de la bande, tel qu'un sécheur à air chaud. Le sécheur 32 a des dimensions réduites par rapport aux sécheurs de l'état de la technique.The cutter and stacker 10 is adapted to cut the print tape 18 into individual sheets 30 and to produce a stack 31 of the cut individual sheets. The traction device 8 is situated downstream of the printing unit 6 furthest upstream and upstream of the cutting and stacking device 10. This traction device 8 is adapted to apply a determined mechanical tension on the strip 18 exiting the printing unit 6 further downstream. As can be seen in FIG. 1, the printing machine 2 is adapted to transport the printed web 18 in free suspension and in ambient air all the way between the printing unit 6 furthest downstream and the traction device 8, possibly with the exception of the tape gripper 14 and the powdering device 16. In addition, the printing machine 2 is also adapted to transport the printed tape 18 to the ambient air over the entire path between the traction device 8 and the cutting and stacking device 10. Thus, the printing machine 2 of Figure 1 does not have a dryer and has a small footprint. The printing machine 2 according to the variant shown in FIG. 2 differs from the printing machine 2 shown in FIG. 1 by the fact that between the belt gripper 14 and the traction device 8 is arranged a dryer The infra-red dryer 32 may be replaced by another strip-drying device, such as a hot-air dryer. The dryer 32 has reduced dimensions compared with the prior art driers.
Le dispositif de saisie de bande 14 est adapté pour détecter une rupture de la bande de papier 18 et pour saisir l'extrémité libre de la bande de papier 18 dans ce cas. A cet effet, le dispositif de saisie de bande 14 comporte des éléments de saisie 34 appropriés. En variante, le dispositif de saisie de bande 14 est omis.The tape gripper 14 is adapted to detect a break in the paper web 18 and to grip the free end of the paper web 18 in this case. For this purpose, the tape gripper 14 has appropriate gripping elements 34. Alternatively, the tape gripper 14 is omitted.
Le dispositif de poudrage 16 est adapté pour déposer de la poudre anti- maculante sur chacune des faces de la bande 18 imprimée. Il peut déposer de la poudre anti-maculante sur l'une ou sur les deux faces de la bande 18 imprimée. A cet effet le dispositif de poudrage 16 comporte un réservoir 36 contenant de la poudre 38 et une tête de poudrage 40 reliée au réservoir de poudre 36 par une conduite 42 pour chacune de faces de la bande de papier 18.The powdering device 16 is adapted to deposit anti-staining powder on each of the faces of the printed strip 18. It can deposit anti-staining powder on one or both sides of the printed strip 18. For this purpose the dusting device 16 comprises a reservoir 36 containing powder 38 and a dusting head 40 connected to the powder reservoir 36 via a pipe 42 for each of the faces of the paper strip 18.
Le dispositif de poudrage 16 est adapté pour appliquer la poudre anti- maculante sur la bande de papier 18 en continue, de préférence en continue de manière ininterrompue sur une longueur qui correspond au moins à deux fois la longueur d'impression.The powdering device 16 is adapted to apply the anti-maculante powder to the paper web 18 continuously, preferably continuously continuously over a length which corresponds to at least twice the printing length.
La poudre anti-maculante 38 utilisée pour le poudrage de la bande est de préférence une poudre végétale, par exemple à base de mais, ou une poudre minérale. Le dispositif de traction 8, associé aux autres unités de la presse, permet d'imprimer une bande de papier et de la réceptionner dans le dispositif de découpe et d'empilage 10, sans sécher cette bande de papier 12 et par évaporation des solvants de l'encre. L'image est imprimée par l'encre 24 contenue dans le réservoir d'encre 22.The anti-maculante powder 38 used for the powdering of the strip is preferably a vegetable powder, for example based on corn, or a mineral powder. The traction device 8, associated with the other units of the press, makes it possible to print a strip of paper and to receive it in the cutting and stacking device 10, without drying this strip of paper 12 and by evaporation of the solvents of ink. The image is printed by the ink 24 contained in the ink tank 22.
De manière avantageuse, l'encre 24 est une encre siccative, ou une encre sans eau (« waterless »), ou une encre bi-composante. Le séchage des encres siccatives est la combinaison d'un premier phénomène dit « la pénétration dans le support » et d'un second phénomène dit « l'oxydo-polymérisation des vernis constitués d'huiles et de résines ».Advantageously, the ink 24 is a drying ink, or a waterless ink ("waterless"), or a two-component ink. The drying of drying inks is the combination of a first phenomenon called "penetration into the support" and a second phenomenon called "the oxidation polymerization of varnishes consisting of oils and resins".
Les encres sans eau (« waterless ») sont utilisées avec des plaques d'impression spécifiques permettant de définir des zones non imprimantes sans faire appel au procédé lithographique classique fondé sur le refus de l'encre grasse par une surface hydrophile préalablement humidifiée. L'utilisation de ces encres peut être envisagée au même titre que les encres siccatives conventionnelles vues précédemment et permet de se dispenser d'un sécheur, ou de le concevoir de manière moins encombrante.The waterless inks are used with specific printing plates to define non-printing areas without using the conventional lithographic process based on the rejection of the greasy ink by a previously moistened hydrophilic surface. The use of these inks can be considered in the same way as the conventional drying inks previously seen and can be dispensed with a dryer, or design less cumbersome.
Les encres fixables par la chaleur ("heat-set") par contre sèchent par évaporation des solvants minéraux mélangés à la résine. Les encres UV sèchent par polymérisation de la résine sous l'effet d'un rayonnement ultraviolet.Heat-set inks, on the other hand, dry by evaporation of the mineral solvents mixed with the resin. The UV inks dry by polymerization of the resin under the effect of ultraviolet radiation.
Sur la figure 3 est représenté schématiquement le dispositif de découpe et d'empilage 10.FIG. 3 diagrammatically shows the cutting and stacking device 10.
Le dispositif de découpe et d'empilage 10 comporte deux dispositifs d'acheminement de feuilles 30 vers la pile, à savoir un premier dispositif d'acheminement D1 ou de transfert et un second dispositif d'acheminement D2 ou de freinage.The cutting and stacking device 10 has two sheet feeding devices 30 to the stack, namely a first conveying device D1 or transfer and a second conveying device D2 or braking.

Le cylindre de contre-pression 54 est disposé adjacent au cylindre de coupe 52 et est mobile en rotation par rapport à la structure fixe S autour d'un axe de rotation D. Le cylindre de contre-pression 54 est muni de par exemple deux blocs de contre-pression 68 régulièrement répartis sur la circonférence du cylindre de contre-pression 54. Ces blocs de contre-pression 68 coopèrent avec la lame 66 en vue de couper la bande 18 en des feuilles 30. En outre, le cylindre de contre-pression 54 comporte une enveloppe 70 munie de trous traversants 72. L'enveloppe 70 est un cylindre creux à section circulaire. La partie intérieure de l'enveloppe 70 est reliée au dispositif de vide 64. Ainsi, un vide ou une dépression peut être créé sur une partie angulaire de la circonférence de l'enveloppe 70 qui correspond au trajet T de la bande. Ceci permet de maintenir la bande de papier 18 contre le cylindre de contre-pression 54.The counter-pressure cylinder 54 is disposed adjacent to the cutting cylinder 52 and is rotatable relative to the fixed structure S about an axis of rotation D. The back-pressure cylinder 54 is provided for example with two blocks against back pressure 68 regularly distributed over the circumference of the counter-pressure cylinder 54. These counter-pressure blocks 68 cooperate with the blade 66 in order to cut the strip 18 into sheets 30. In addition, the counter-pressure cylinder 68 pressure 54 comprises an envelope 70 provided with through holes 72. The envelope 70 is a hollow cylinder with a circular section. The inner portion of the envelope 70 is connected to the vacuum device 64. Thus, a vacuum or vacuum can be created on an angular portion of the circumference of the envelope 70 which corresponds to the path T of the tape. This makes it possible to hold the paper strip 18 against the backpressure cylinder 54.
