Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for regulating the position of a printing material in the circumferential direction in printing machines processing machines having the features of claim 1.
  • a print control strip is applied to the substrate laterally of the actual print image. This consists of several color zones, which in turn consist of a repetitive sequence of color fields. Regularly a color zone is 32.5mm wide and consists of ten equally sized color fields. If further production steps are connected to the printing process, further markings are sometimes needed on the substrate. For example, when punching printed products. In this case, the printed product must be introduced in the correct position in the punch, because the final product would otherwise be faulty and unusable. To ensure this, circumferential marks on the peripheral side and side marks on an adjacent side are regularly applied.
  • a perimeter mark of which at least two are required for the diagonal register, must be 18mm to 20mm wide due to the varying scale quality so that it can always be detected by a fixed camera. This means it can not be easily integrated into a color zone.
  • One possible option for positioning these perimeter marks is next to the print control strip. As a result, however, more area is needed off the printed image. However, because the area occupied by print control bars and perimeter marks is removed in the printing process and ends up as a waste product, the placement of perimeter marks over the print control strip results in increased waste of substrates.
  • a method and apparatus for detecting registration deviations in multicolor, printed-product-printed products which acquire a series of measurement areas printed on a substrate are disclosed.
  • Such a measuring field is suitable for containing the usual printing inks black, cyan, magenta and yellow.
  • Control fields, direction fields and solid fields are arranged in the measuring field.
  • three control fields are provided for the lateral register and three control fields for the circumferential register.
  • the control fields consist of equidistant lines of the printing ink black, whereby the gaps in between are filled with one of the remaining printing colors yellow, cyan or magenta.
  • the width of the lines is on the order of 0.1 to 0.5 mm. With ten strokes, this results in a size of the control field of a maximum of about 5 mm 2 , so that a measuring field results in small size, which can be easily accommodate in the pressure-free space.
  • the European patent application EP 2 008 818 A2 shows an improved print control strip for color measurement on substrates.
  • the improved print control strip has in particular measuring fields, which are arranged in at least two rows parallel to each other. This two- or multi-row arrangement serves to be able to make cross-comparisons between measurement fields of the rows in order to be able to check the plausibility of measurements.
  • the print control strip in each row contains a series of color measurement fields for each color zone. Such a color zone is repeated across the transport direction of the printing material across the entire width of the printing material.
  • In the sheet format 102 usually 32 of the ink zones are lined up in a row. Between the individual ink zones, the print control strip may have gaps or additional measuring fields, for example for register control or register control.
  • a method and apparatus for detecting and correcting color aberrations emerges. It's about To detect and minimize deviations in the register between the colors.
  • predetermined register marks are applied in areas without a print image on the printing substrate.
  • the color black is typically selected as the reference color, so that the registers of the other three colors are regulated to the black image in the register.
  • a register mark is printed in the same place for each of the three process colors as the corresponding black register mark.
  • print control strips are applied, which are detected by a colorimeter, wherein the print control strips are arranged transversely to the printing direction over the entire width of the printing material.
  • the colorimeter strips and the register marks may be arranged in a row.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide a device and brands for controlling the position of a substrate in the circumferential direction in substrates processing machines, which wastes a minimum of material and thereby achieves maximum print quality.
  • the present invention comprises a device and marks for regulating the position of a printing substrate in the circumferential direction in printing machines processing machines. At least three sensors are used, one of which detects the lateral position and two the circumferential register of a printing material.
  • the invention is characterized in that the two sensors which detect the circumferential register are arranged laterally offset by a multiple plus a fraction of a color measuring field and detect an edge of a colorimeter with Farbmessfeldern on the substrate.
  • that sensor is evaluated after evaluation of the lateral sensor whose lateral evaluation range is within a color measurement field or a mark.
  • the color measurement fields themselves are used as circumference marks, or color measurement fields are replaced by marks. Since each color of a color measuring field has a different measuring characteristic, it must be determined on the basis of the positions of the color measuring fields on the substrate and the position of the substrate determined by the lateral sensor, which color measuring field is detected by a peripheral sensor.
  • an advantageous development of the invention provides that at least two color measuring fields of a color zone are replaced by a circumferential mark for detecting the position of the printing material. These are detected by the sensors of the circumferential register.
  • the contrast of these brands can be chosen so that an optimal detection is ensured by the sensors.
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the last or first three color measurement fields of a color zone consisting of ten color measurement fields are replaced by a perimeter mark. Due to the width of these circumferential marks and the staggered arrangement of the sensors of the circumferential register, the required control margin of 18mm to 20mm can be covered. Thus, an optimal layer measurement can be accompanied by an optimal color measurement of seven color fields. If the color of the circumference marks is chosen so that it corresponds to a color that already occurs in the printed image anyway, and provides sufficient contrast to the background, even a control of 8 colors is possible.
  • a further development of the invention provides that the circumferential mark can be lower than a color measuring field. This is useful if you do not need to control more than seven colors. This way, you can save color, which has to be spent extra for the perimeter markers.
  • a next advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that on a substrate, possibly the original sheet, the at least two circumferential marks are detected by the at least two sensors of the circumferential register.
  • the substrate has a side mark, which is located on the side. This in turn is detected by the side sensor.
  • the areas of the perimeter marks are stored relative to the position of the page mark. So it is the side sensor later possible to determine the hand of the position of the detected page mark the sensor of the circumferential register, the evaluation area is within a color measurement field or within a perimeter mark. It is also possible to measure the colorimeter to detect and store any offsets between the colorimeters. Likewise, specific properties of the sensors can be measured depending on measured standardized Color measuring strips are recorded and stored. Thus, the influences of offsets and sensors can be eliminated by stored correction values. This process is also known as teaching.
  • the regions of the circumferential marks with respect to the position of the page mark are already detected and stored in a preliminary stage. These data are then transmitted from the precursor to the substrate processing machine so that they are available to the page sensor for evaluation of the relevant sensor of the circumferential register.
  • An exemplary embodiment provides that a printed sheet 1 in a preliminary stage 11 of the printing material processing machine 2 is measured such that the regions of the circumferential marks 9 are detected with respect to the position of the side mark 10 .
  • the data thus determined are then transmitted from the precursor 11 to the printing material processing machine 2 .
  • the sheet is picked up by the printing material processing machine 2 and transported to the actual processing unit (such as a punch).
  • the print control strip 7 is detected by the two sensors 3a and 3b .
  • a side sensor 4 detects the side mark 10. With the aid of the acquired data, the side sensor 4 determines the sensor 3a or 3b whose evaluation range lies within a circumference mark. From the data thus determined, the exact position of the sheet 1 in the machine 2 can be determined. So it is possible for a downstream unit to position the sheet 1 correctly.
