Definitions

  • the invention relates to a rotary printing press for printing a material web with a central cylinder and a plurality of inking units arranged around the central cylinder, in each of which printing ink can be transferred from a printing drum to the material web.
  • central cylinder design is used in particular in flexographic printing machines.
  • the material web is usually a plastic film.
  • Different country markings, country-specific trademark protection, or similar minor changes to a package may result in a large print job having to be broken down into several smaller print jobs, even though the overall packaging design itself remains unchanged. As the printing length decreases, however, the profitability of the flexographic printing press decreases.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to increase the efficiency of a flexographic printing press for packaging printing.
  • the machine-side anchorages of at least one pressure roller are configured such that the pressure roller can be removed and the space enclosed by the pressure roller can be released and the released space can be equipped with an inkjet printing unit.
  • the resulting method according to the invention is a method for printing a material web with a rotary printing press, wherein the Rotary printing machine has a central cylinder and a plurality of arranged around the central cylinder inking in which each ink is transferred from a pressure roller on the web, wherein a pressure roller is released from the machine side anchors and removed from the rotary printing press, so that the area covered by the pressure roller space is free , And wherein the vacated space is equipped with an inkjet printing unit.
  • the removable pressure roller so not only the usual supply units for the printing ink, drying, etc. (in a flexographic printing press so in particular the anilox roller and the doctoring chamber), but it is also an inkjet supply unit provided at the same time, which includes an inkjet ink reservoir and which can be connected to the equipped inkjet printing unit.
  • an inkjet control unit is provided, which is connectable to the populated inkjet printing unit.
  • the inkjet printing unit will have a smaller printing width than the removed printing roller. According to a preferred embodiment, therefore, a linear guide is provided, so that the inkjet printing unit is displaceable transversely to the material web.
  • an industrial robot is provided for removing the printing roller and for equipping the inkjet printing unit.
  • Fig. 1 shows a first schematic side view of the flexographic printing machine according to the invention.
  • the flexographic printing machine 101 is a so-called central cylinder machine and accordingly has a central cylinder 102 around which the eight inking units 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109 and 110 are arranged in a star shape.
  • Each of these inking units has a pressure roller 111, an anilox roller 112 and a doctor blade chamber 113, which are mounted on the machine-side anchors 114, respectively.
  • the components 111, 112, 113 and 114 are designated by way of example of the inking unit 108 and are found in a corresponding manner also on the other inking units.
  • the material web 115 In order to print on the material web 115, it is drawn off in the unwinding station 116 from the roll of material 117 and guided over several deflection rollers to the pressure roller 118.
  • the pressure roller 118 applies the material web 115 for further transport to the central cylinder 102, so that the material web 115 is passed register-accurate to the inking units and the intermediate inking driers not shown.
  • the material web 115 After the material web 115 has left the central cylinder 102, it is guided to dry the ink by a bridge dryer 119 and then wound in the winding station 120 on the roll of material 121.
  • the central cylinder machine 101 is preferably used for packaging printing, wherein the material web 115 is then usually a plastic film.
  • Different country markings, country-specific trademark protection, or similar minor changes to a package may result in having to split a large print job into multiple print jobs, even though the overall design of the package itself remains unchanged.
  • the machine-side anchorages of the pressure roller of at least one inking unit are designed such that the pressure roller is removed and the space enclosed by the pressure roller is released can be.
  • This embodiment of the central cylinder engine 101 is in Fig. 2 exemplified by reference to the inking unit 108.
  • Fig. 2 shows a second schematic side view of the flexographic printing machine according to the invention. Across from Fig. 1 the same parts are provided with the same reference numerals, so far as in the above description according to Fig. 1 can be referenced.
  • a crucial difference from the first schematic view according to Fig. 1 exists in the second schematic view according to Fig. 2 in that the pressure roller 111 of the inking unit 108 has been removed and an inkjet printing unit 201 has been installed in the space previously occupied by the pressure roller.
  • Fig. 3 shows a plan view of the in the flexographic printing machine according to Fig. 2 built-in inkjet printing unit 201 according to the in Fig. 2
  • the individual components of the inkjet printing unit 201 are mounted on the two side parts 301 and 302, whose distance from each other is approximately equal to the maximum printing width of FIG Fig. 1 installed pressure roller 111 corresponds.
  • This means that the printing width of the printing head 303 of the inkjet printing unit 201 is less than the maximum printing width of the printing rollers available for flexographic printing.
  • the smaller print width of the print head 303 (for example 40 cm) is sufficient for this purpose.
  • the print head 303 must then be displaceable transversely to the material web 115 in order to be able to reach any desired position of the material web to be printed for a specific print job.
  • the print head 303 is mounted on a carriage 304, which is displaceable on a first linear guide 305 transversely to the material web.
  • the carriage 304 is also supported via the arm 306 on a second linear guide 307, whereby the arm 306 on the second linear guide 307 is displaceable transversely to the material web.
  • the carriage 304 is manually moved to the desired printing position before each print job and then with clamping devices is fixed.
  • the carriage 304 may be automatically slid and locked on the linear guides 305 and 307.
  • a toothed belt 308 is provided, which is braced between the Umlenk leopardrad 309 and the electric motor 310 driven gear 311.
  • Fig. 4 shows the in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 designated view A with a mounted on a portal 401 industrial robot 402.
  • the industrial robot 402 is capable of removing the printing roller 111 of the inking unit 108 from the flexographic printing machine 101 and inserting the inkjet printing unit 201 in the released space, as shown in FIG Fig. 4 is indicated by the direction of movement 403.
  • the connection of the connections for the ink supply and the control electronics are then made manually by the operator after the onset of the inkjet printing unit 201, but it is also conceivable that the production of these connections is also performed by the industrial robot 402.
  • the pressure rollers used in flexographic printing usually consist of a shaft mounted in the machine frame and of a sleeve (i.e., sleeve) pushed onto the shaft on which the printing plate is mounted.
  • a sleeve i.e., sleeve
  • double-sided shafts with pushed-on sleeves are used. To change a sleeve, the waves are then completely removable.
