Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for controlling or regulating a production process in the production of printed products.
  • a widespread method for controlling printed products and controlling or regulating the printing process is the application and detection of so-called print marks, via the positioning or design of which corresponding control commands for usually subsequent processing units of the printing press can be transferred.
  • print marks are, for example, contrast marks which are used, for example, for cutting the printing substrate and for further processing. About the position of these contrast marks the right time for a cut can be transferred to a cutting device, so that it can be set as desired.
  • collection and stapling information for further processing can be stored and retrieved. In such contrast marks very little information and control commands can be deposited, so that the scope is limited.
  • codes on the printed matter for controlling a production process in the production of printed products and to detect and evaluate the codes, in particular 2D codes, on the basis of the production information contained in the codes To carry out control or regulation actions in the production process during the production of the printed products.
  • codes may be, for example, 1D codes such as bar codes or 2D codes or 2D stack codes or even act on 2D matrix codes.
  • 2D codes have different sections, namely edge sections and inner sections.
  • the edge sections are used in particular for recognizing or finding the 2D code as such.
  • the inner sections the actual content of the 2D code is stored. It is already known, within one and the same 2D code, so in the inner portion of the same, to deposit data in different sections of the inner portion redundant.
  • Signatures are accordingly intermediate products which are processed with or without at least one additional additional working step such as, for example, a folding operation to form a final printed product.
  • DE 10 2009 012 436 A1 and EP 2 090 441 A1 each concern production processes in the production of printed products, in which always identical or identical signatures are ducked.
  • the present invention has the object to provide a novel method in which a variety of production information for the control and / or monitoring or control of a production process can be stored on the substrate and safely retrieved with low error rate.
  • the method according to the invention has at least the following steps: printing a code, in particular a matrix code, with production information contained therein for the control or regulation and / or monitoring or checking of the production process on the printing substrate; Printing a code on at least two signatures to be separated from the web-shaped substrate by cross-cutting or on at least two signatures produced from an arcuate substrate, wherein a code contains production information about a plurality of different signatures; Detecting the code by means of a detection device; Evaluation of the production information contained in the code by means of an evaluation unit; in the case of non-decodability of the evaluated code, exploiting the information from at least one preceding and / or at least one subsequent code; Executing the control actions and / or monitoring or control functions based on the determined production information by the printing system.
  • the invention uses codes in order to print production information required for a production process in the production of printed products on the printing material, these codes subsequently being recorded and evaluated in order to carry out control and regulating actions on the basis of the production information determined therefrom.
  • the code contains production information about or for a plurality of signatures, preferably production information about the respective signature on which the respective code is printed, and production information about another signature of the printing material.
  • a code is printed on at least one of the web-like substrate to be separated by cross-cutting signature or on each individually printed signature in the sheet printing process, which not only contains production information on the respective current signature on which the same is printed, but also production information via a different signature of the printing material, namely a subsequent and / or preceding signature which has been separated from the web-shaped printing material or is to be separated or on each individually printed in the sheet-fed printing signature.
  • the production information stored redundantly in the code of another signature can be used.
  • the production process in the production of printed products can be carried out more stably with less susceptibility to errors, so that less paper waste is produced or produced. This also allows complete monitoring and / or control and thus, if necessary, complete documentation of the respective print job.
  • the respective code contains production information about the respective signature and production information on at least one subsequent signature, preferably on the immediately following signature, and / or on at least one preceding signature, preferably on the immediately preceding signature.
  • the production information of the code printed on a signature which relate to a subsequent and / or a preceding signature, redundant production information, which are also contained in the printed on the respective subsequent or previous signature codes. Due to this redundancy, the production process on the printing system can be carried out in a more stable and less error-prone manner.
  • the production information of the code printed on a signature which relate to a subsequent and / or a preceding signature, the completion and / or verification of production information contained in the printed on the respective subsequent or previous signature codes.
  • the invention relates to a method for controlling and / or monitoring or controlling a production process in the production of printed products.
  • Fig. 1 shows a printed substrate web 1.
  • On the substrate web 1 can be separated by cross cutting using a cutter 7 signatures 2a, 2b, 2c from the illustrated in this embodiment web-like substrate, in the embodiment of Fig. 1 on the individual signatures 2a, 2b, 2c printed pages 3 are printed.
  • Fig. 1 It can be seen that the signatures 2a, 2b, 2c can differ with regard to the number of printed pages 3 printed on them. It is also possible that all signatures are printed with the same number of printed pages 3.
  • codes 4 are printed on the printing material web 1, the production information for controlling or regulating the production process.
  • Fig. 1 For example, at least one code is printed on each signature 2a, 2b, 2c, wherein in Fig. 1 the code 4a is printed on the signature 2a and the code 4b on the signature 2b.
  • the code printed on the signature 2c is in Fig. 1 not visible.
  • the production information can be all the data for the print job and for the further processing and finishing of the signatures, in particular data for positioning the printed pages 3, the order of the printed pages 3, the collecting sequence and the folding order.
  • the codes 4a, 4b printed on the signatures 2a, 2b, 2c of the printing material web 1 contain production information for the control or regulation of the production process, the codes being measured by means of a detection device 6 mounted on a crosshead 5 and transversely to the web running direction B of the printing substrate 1 can be moved, are detected.
  • the detected codes are evaluated in an evaluation unit, not shown, in order to obtain production information contained in the codes, wherein subsequently control actions for the production process are executed on the basis of the production information determined in the evaluation unit on the printing system.
  • the respective code 4a, 4b may contain, in addition to the production information of the signature on which it is printed, production information about at least one subsequent signature and / or at least one preceding signature.
  • a code 4a, 4b on the one hand contains production information on the current signature on which the same is printed, and further production information on at least two other signatures, namely at least one subsequent and at least one preceding signature.
  • the code printed on a signature in addition to the production information of the signature on which the same is printed, also contains production information about the signature immediately following and / or immediately preceding signature.
  • the production information of the code printed on a signature 2a, 2b, 2c, which relates to a subsequent and / or a preceding signature is preferably redundant production information, which is also contained in the code printed on the respective subsequent or preceding signature. If, for example, a signature code 4a is printed on the signature 2a, which contains on the one hand production information about the signature 2a and, on the other hand, production information about the immediately preceding signature 2b, those production information of the code 4a which relates to the immediately preceding signature 2b are also in the code 4b printed on the signature 2b.
  • a code 4b to be printed on the signature 2b, which on the one hand contains production information about the signature 2b and, on the other hand, production information about the immediately following signature 2a, in which case the production information of the code 4b, which relates to the directly following signature 2a, Also contained in the code 4a, which is printed on the immediately following signature 2a.
  • the code 4b printed on the signature 2b contains production information about the signature 2b as well as production information about the immediately following signature 2a and the immediately preceding signature 2c.
  • those production information of the code 4b, which relate to the immediately following signature 2a are also contained in the code 4a of the signature 2a.
  • the production information of the code 4b concerning the immediately preceding signature 2c is also included in the code (not visible) printed on this immediately preceding signature 2c.
  • a code printed on a signature 2a, 2b, 2c can not be detected and evaluated, then the code of another signature, namely a preceding and / or subsequent signature, can be accessed in order to record, evaluate and compare the relevant production information Execution of control actions.
  • Production information of the signature printed code relating to a subsequent signature may be used to complete and verify production information contained in the code printed on the respective subsequent signature.
  • Production information of the code printed on a signature relating to a preceding signature serves, in particular, for the verification of production information contained in the code printed on the respective preceding signature. So can online during In the production process, it is checked whether production in the production of printed products is proceeding correctly. Should there be deviations between the production information used for verification of codes printed on different signatures, it can be counteracted during the production process by, for example, ejecting affected signatures and / or by reprinting corresponding signatures, in order to avoid waste and to produce error-free printed products.
  • codes 4a, 4b which preferably each contain at least two types of production information, preferably at least production information on the current signature to which the current Code is printed, and at least continue production information on at least one signature, namely at least one subsequent signature and / or at least one previous signature. Accordingly, should a code be unusable and not readable, redundant production information contained in the codes of preceding and / or subsequent signatures may be accessed. Furthermore, by matching production information, the proper production process can be verified.
  • a code printed on a signature does not contain production information about the signature on which it is printed, but only production information about different subsequent and / or preceding signatures.
