Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for determining properties of a printed substrate according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the measuring device which is used for measuring the printed substrate be integrated into the printing press to measure the printed substrate inline to the printing process in printing press speed.
  • the measuring device is installed on the printing press in order to measure the printed substrate online for the printing process but not in printing press speed. Regardless of whether the printed substrate is not measured in line with the printing process at press speed or online during the printing process at press speed, the metrologically recorded properties are made accessible to the printing process.
  • a method for color control of a printing press is known in which two measuring devices are used, which are based on different measuring principles.
  • a density measurement-providing measuring device designed as a densitometer
  • the setting of inking units takes place in a set-up phase of the printing press.
  • the printed substrate is measured in the continuous printing operation of the printing press by means of a measuring device designed as a camera, which provides colorimetric measured values. Based on the camera's colorimetric readings, the inking settings made on the density readings of the densitometer can be adjusted to improve color control.
  • the transformation matrix is determined experimentally by generating a reference gauge pressure as well as several additional gauge prints, each having a gray balance field and three solid tone fields. At each additional calibration pressure, the layer thickness of another solid field is increased. By detecting color metric differences and halftone density differences and inserting them into a system of equations indicating the relationship between the halftone density differences and the color metric differences, the elements of the transformation matrix describing the relationship between halftone density changes and associated colorimetric changes can be determined.
  • the computer compares the measured data, weighting them according to the area coverage, foreign color content and environment of the respective picture element and provides per zone and color a control signal for controlling the color guide. From the area coverage values of the four colors, the color coordinates (X, Y, Z) can be determined for each picture element in a parallel calculation process. With this method, it is possible to control on-line color guide of a multicolor printing machine without using a colorimeter by direct measurement in the printed image.
  • the present invention is based on the problem to provide a novel method for determining properties of a printed substrate.
