Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for printing a cylindrical printing surface of a beverage can, in particular tinplate or aluminum, with a printed image.
- the invention further relates to a beverage can, in particular made of tinplate or aluminum, with a cylindrical printing surface with a printed image.
- the scope of the invention relates to the printing of beverage cans.
- Under a beverage can is here a beverage can body with a bottom, a cylindrical shell and an open end, which is opposite to the ground understood.
- Such beverage cans are usually assembled in pallets and delivered to bottling companies, which fill the beverage cans through the open end with a drink and close after filling the open end with a beverage can lid, so then there is a filled, sealed beverage container.
- the open end of a beverage can is preferably retracted and provided with an outwardly bent flange, so that a beverage can lid can be connected by crimping with the outwardly bent flange of the open end of the beverage can.
- Beverage cans are preferably made of tinplate or steel or aluminum.
- the printing of a beverage can is usually part of the overall production process of a beverage can.
- the overall manufacturing process of a soda can in addition to printing, usually involves cutting out a blank and deep drawing a cup, which is then stretched into a can body, trimming or trimming the open end, washing the beverage cans to remove excess leveling agent, applying various coatings, such as UV coatings and interior, exterior and floor coatings, the - optionally multiple - drying after one or more process steps, the retraction of the open end and an inspection, for example, for testing for holes and crimping cracks, and palletizing.
- a printed image is preferably applied, which has a graphic design that is intended to appeal to a user.
- graphic elements with informational character for example information about ingredients, deposit tokens, shelf life or production data, identification numbers or the like may be arranged in the print image.
- Such a printed image is usually applied to the cylindrical printing surface of a beverage can by a printing process. It is known, for example, to print beverage cans in the high-pressure process. Furthermore, it is known, for example, from WO 2004/109581 A2 to digitally print beverage cans. From EP 2 100 733 B1 a printing machine for printing hollow bodies is known in which a plurality of printing machines are provided which can print the hollow body with different printing methods.
- a method for printing a cylindrical printing surface of a beverage can, in particular tinplate or aluminum, with a printed image comprising a first and a second printing operation wherein in the first printing a first section of the printing surface with a first printing process in a first Printing press is printed, in the second printing process, a second section of the printing surface is printed ne with a first different printing method preferably different second printing method in a second printing machine, the beverage can before or in the second printing process is positioned such that the second section of the printing surface in a predetermined position is aligned with the first section of the printing surface.
- beverage cans are printed in two different printing processes on two different printing presses, wherein the two printing machines preferably use different printing methods.
- the print image to be generated is divided into at least two sections, of which one section is printed with a printing machine and the other section with the other printing machine.
- the one (first) printing machine can, for example, perform a printing process with which larger print runs can be economically produced in high quality, while the other (second) printing process, for example, allows rapid change of the print image with relatively little effort.
- the cylindrical pressure surface of the beverage can, to which the printed image is applied corresponds in the settlement a rectangle, as it arises in a settlement of the lateral surface of the beverage can.
- the surfaces of the first and second cutouts together form the surface of this rectangle of the unwound cylindrical printing surface.
- the first and second cut-outs are arranged such that a corresponding rectangular outer circumference is formed.
- the two sections of the printing surface together preferably result in the entire printed image, that is, the two sections of the printing surface supplement preferably each other.
- the first and second cutouts are preferably arranged adjacent to one another, wherein they may possibly overlap slightly. Therefore, it is preferred that the second cutout has a recess which corresponds in shape and size to the first cutout, so that after the two printing operations, a printed image is formed which fills the surface of the cylindrical printing surface.
- the two cutouts adjoin one another without spacing in order to produce a common print image without unprinted areas between the two cutouts.
- one of the two cutouts may extend into an adjacent area of the other cutout.
- the printed images of both cutouts extend at their adjoining edges in each case into an adjacent region of the other cutout.
- a beverage can to be printed is fed successively to two different printing presses, where it is in each case subjected to a printing process.
- the first printing method is preferably different than the second printing method, that is, the two printing methods used in the two printing machines preferably differ from each other.
- the beverage can printed in the first printing press by means of the second printing method is aligned before the printing by means of the second printing method such that after the second printing process the first and second cutouts of the printing surface are printed so that a desired total print image is created.
- the beverage can is exactly positioned before or during the second printing process, so that the printing of the second cut in the second printing process is such that the pressure in the second cutout matches the print in the first cutout with high accuracy.
- the print image generated by the first printing machine and the printed image generated by the second printing machine should be aligned relative to each other exactly.
- the inventive method has the advantage that a division of the printed image can be made to different sections of the printing surface, which can then be printed with different printing methods. In this way, an entire, preferably contiguous, printed image, which, however, can be produced with different printing processes. In this way, for each of the different parts of the printed image, which may have to meet different requirements, for example with respect to color or resolution, the respectively appropriate printing methods are used. Furthermore, it is possible to intermediately store the beverage cans between the first and second printing processes in order, for example, to economically produce the first cutouts printed in a large number and later to print smaller quantities using the second printing method, so that, for example, different series, editions, issues or collectibles can be created.
- the printed image of the different (small) series preferably differs only in the second section, so that the first printing can be carried out inexpensively in high quantities.
- Another advantage is that the separation of the two printing operations also transport the beverage cans between the first and second printing is possible, for example, over a greater distance away, if the two printing machines, for example, at different locations or at a location in different lines are arranged. Also, a greater temporal offset between the first and second printing is possible, so that for example in the first printing process, the first sections can be printed and only with a delay is to decide how exactly the printed image with the printing of the second section in the second printing process to be completed should. This is particularly advantageous when reacting to certain events in the short term with an adaptation of the printed image. Furthermore, it is possible to integrate a large number of different images or motifs into a larger series.
- a different printed image can be applied to the other of the two cutouts for each beverage can or groups of beverage cans, so that an individualization of individual beverage cans or groups of beverage cans takes place can.

- small and very small series up to the individual beverage can are made distinguishable for the consumer and preferably linked to different, possibly mutually constructive or / or related additional information.
- a first printing process for printing a first section of the printing surface in a first printing method and a second printing process for printing a second section of the printing surface with a second printing method are provided.
- a third or further cutouts of the printing surface can be printed in a third or further printing processes in a third or further printing press with a third or further printing process.
- one of the two printing methods is a high-pressure method.
- the use of a high-pressure process is particularly preferred since this process enables high quantities to be cost-effective. can be printed and at the same time a great variety in the color design can be realized. For example, there are many customer-specified colors or color combinations and shades, which can not be realized with printing methods other than the high-pressure method, or only with difficulty or at high cost.
- one of the two printing methods is a digital printing method. and wherein preferably the second printing process can process beverage cans of different diameters, preferably between 40 and 90 mm, and / or with different heights, preferably between 40 and 250 mm.
- the digital printing method has the advantage of a particularly high resolution, for example of 600 dpi. This allows realistic, high-resolution images to be applied to beverage cans. Furthermore, the digital printing method is suitable to print on short notice different small series without large set-up times on demand. It is particularly preferred that in the digital printing process, all common beverage can diameters, preferably between 40 and 90 mm, and beverage can heights, preferably between 40 and 250 mm, can be processed.
- the combination of these methods is also advantageous if certain compulsory components, such as statutory, standardization or voluntary commitments such as industry associations specified information is to produce only in one of the two printing processes, such as the DPG Pfandlogo.

- the second cutout can also be arranged on an edge or a corner of the first cutout, so that the outer circumference of the printed image is formed in part by the first and in part by the second cutout.
- a central region is to be understood as meaning a middle region in the rectangle of the printing surface, that is to say an area which has approximately equal distances to the respectively opposite edges of the printing surface.
- the second cutout can be rectangular and the first cutout can be rectangular, square, circular or oval, the second cutout having a cutout essentially corresponding to the cutout first section corresponds.
- the first cutout is arranged in a corner of the second cutout, on an edge of the second cutout or in a central region of the second cutout. The choice of the configuration of the first and second cutouts depends on the requirements of the printed images to be applied in the cutouts.
- the first and second cutouts of the printing surface may be substantially the same size.
- An equally large configuration of the first and second cutouts can take place, for example, in that the two cutouts are formed as two halves of the rectangle of the unwound cylindrical printing surface. In this design, both the size of the surfaces and their shape correspond.
- the two cutouts in this embodiment are preferably designed so that the size of the surfaces of both cutouts essentially corresponds to one another, the shape of the two cutouts being different.
