Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Anspruches 1 gelöst. Die jeweils abhängigen Ansprüche zeigen vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und/oder Weiterbildungen der gefundenen Lösung.The object is achieved by the features of claim 1. The respective dependent claims show advantageous embodiments and / or developments of the solution found.
Die mit der Erfindung erzielbaren Vorteile sind aus den nachfolgenden Erläuterungen ersichtlich.The achievable with the invention advantages are apparent from the following explanations.
Überdies ist die beschriebene Lösung in einer hybriden, bogenförmige Substrate bearbeitenden Maschinenanordnung verwendbar, vorzugsweise in einer hybriden Druckmaschine, die die hohe Produktivität einer konventionellen, z. B. in einem OffsetDruckverfahren oder in einem Flexodruckverfahren oder in einem Siebdruckverfahren druckenden Druckeinrichtung oder einer Beschichtungseinrichtung, insbesondere eines Lackwerkes variabel in Kombination mit mindestens einer flexibel jeweils veränderliche Druckbilder druckenden, z. B. als ein Tintenstrahldrucker ausgebildete Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung nutzt, wobei sowohl die konventionelle Druckeinrichtung bzw. die Beschichtungseinrichtung als auch die Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung in einer laufenden Produktion inline jeweils mit der für sie optimalen Arbeitsgeschwindigkeit verwendet werden. Eine solche hybride Maschinenanordnung ist insbesondere zur Produktion von Verpackungsmitteln, z. B. von Bogen zur Herstellung von Faltschachteln sehr vorteilhaft, weil jeweils die Stärken jeder der Druckeinrichtungen genutzt werden, was zu einer flexiblen und wirtschaftlichen Produktion der Verpackungsmittel führt. Ein Transport von bogenförmigen Substraten mittels Rotationskörpern, insbesondere Zylindern und Greiferleisten oder Greiferwagen jeweils mit einer Übergabe der bogenförmigen Substrate jeweils im Greiferschluss an eine nächstfolgende Bearbeitungsstation, wie dies von Bogenoffsetdruckmaschinen bekannt ist, stellt eine höchstmögliche Registergenauigkeit sicher.Moreover, the solution described can be used in a hybrid, arcuate substrate processing machine assembly, preferably in a hybrid printing machine, which achieves the high productivity of a conventional, e.g. B. in an offset printing process or in a flexographic printing process or in a screen printing process printing device or a coating device, in particular a coating unit variable in combination with at least one flexible each variable printing images printing, z. B. formed as an ink jet printer non-impact printing device uses, wherein both the conventional printing device or the coating device and the non-impact printing device are used in-line production inline at the optimal working speed for them. Such a hybrid machine arrangement is in particular for the production of packaging means, for. B. from sheet for the production of cartons very beneficial because each of the strengths of each of the printing devices are used, resulting in a flexible and economical production of packaging materials. A transport of arcuate substrates by means of rotational bodies, in particular cylinders and gripper bars or gripper carriages each with a transfer of the arcuate substrates each in the gripper close to a next processing station, as is known from sheet-fed offset printing machines, ensures the highest possible register accuracy.

Im Folgenden wird beispielhaft davon ausgegangen, dass in der jeweiligen Maschinenanordnung mit mehreren Bearbeitungsstationen 01; 02; 03; 04; 06; 07; 08; 09; 11; 12 als Bedruckstoff jeweils eine Sequenz von insbesondere biegesteifen Bogen z. B. aus einem Papier, aus einem einlagigen oder mehrlagigen Karton oder aus einer Pappe insbesondere zu einem Verpackungsmittel verarbeitet wird. Die Bedruckstoffe Papier, Karton und Pappe unterscheiden sich in ihrem jeweiligen Grammatur genannten Flächengewicht, d. h. dem Gewicht in Gramm für einen Quadratmeter dieses Bedruckstoffes. Dabei gilt allgemein der vorgenannte Bedruckstoff mit einem Flächengewicht zwischen 7 g/m2 und 150 g/m2 als Papier, zwischen 150 g/m2 und 600 g/m2 als Karton und mit mehr als 600 g/m2 als Pappe. Zur Herstellung von Faltschachteln werden insbesondere Kartone oder Pappe verwendet, die jeweils eine gute Bedruckbarkeit aufweisen und für eine anschließende Veredelung oder Verarbeitung wie z. B. für eine Lackierung und Stanzung geeignet sind. Diese Kartone oder Pappe sind von ihrem Faserstoffeinsatz je nach Bedarf z. B. holzfrei, leicht holzhaltig, holzhaltig oder altpapierhaltig. In ihrem Aufbau weisen mehrlagige Kartone oder Pappe, z. B. Wellpappe, jeweils eine Decklage, eine Einlage und als Rückseite eine Unterlage auf. Von ihrer Oberflächenbeschaffenheit her sind Kartone oder Pappe z. B. ungestrichen, pigmentiert, gestrichen oder gussgestrichen. Ein Format des Bogens liegt z. B. im Bereich zwischen 340 mm x 480 mm und 740 mm x 1060 mm, wobei bei den Formatangaben i. d. R. die erste Zahl eine Länge in Transportrichtung T der Bogen und die zweite Zahl eine orthogonal zur Transportrichtung T gerichtete Breite der Bogen angibt.In the following, it is assumed by way of example that in the respective machine arrangement with
Im Blockschaltbild der
Falls die dem Anleger 01 nächste Bearbeitungsstation 03 die Kaltfolienauftrageinrichtung 03 ist, wird der Bogen anschließend von dort i. d. R. zur als Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 ausgebildeten Bearbeitungsstation 04 transportiert. In der Kaltfolienauftrageinrichtung 03 wird eine von einer Trägerfolie abgelöste metallisierte Lackschicht auf den Bedruckstoff übertragen. Durch das Überdrucken dieser Lackschicht z. B. mit einer Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 können unterschiedlichste Metalleffekte erzielt werden. Die Kaltfolienauftrageinrichtung 03 ist in vorteilhafter Weise z. B. in der Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 integriert ausgebildet, indem zwei zusätzliche Druckwerke 87; 88 in der Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 vorgesehen sind. Im in Transportrichtung T des Bedruckstoffes ersten Druckwerk 87 wird mittels einer Standarddruckform ein spezieller Klebstoff auf den Bedruckstoff, d. h. den jeweiligen Bogen aufgetragen. Ein in Transportrichtung T des Bedruckstoffes zweites Druckwerk 88 ist mit einer die zu übertragende Lackschicht aufweisenden Folientransfereinrichtung ausgestattet. Die die Lackschicht tragende Folie wird von einer Abwickelstation in einen Druckspalt zwischen einem Übertragungszylinder und einem mit diesem Übertragungszylinder zusammenwirkenden Druckzylinder geführt und mit dem Bedruckstoff in Kontakt gebracht. In der Lackschicht farbgebend sind eine Aluminiumschicht und eine Schutzlackschicht, deren Einfärbung den Farbeindruck beeinflusst. Durch Adhäsion einer Haftschicht mit der aufgedruckten Klebstoffschicht bleiben die Transferschichten auf dem Substrat haften. Die Trägerfolie wird anschließend wieder aufgewickelt. Nach dem Kaltfolientransfer ist inline, insbesondere in der Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 das Überdrucken mit konventionellen, z. B. wasserbasierten Druckfarben sowie durch UV- und Hybridfarben möglich, um unterschiedliche metallische Farbtöne zu erzeugen.If the
Ein z. B. besonders saugfähiger und/oder für ein Bedrucken mit einer Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 aufzubereitender Bedruckstoff wird vom Anleger 01 einer z. B. als eine Primerauftrageinrichtung 02 ausgebildeten nächsten Bearbeitungsstation 02 zugeführt, um zumindest eine Oberfläche dieses Bedruckstoffes vor einem Bedrucken oder Lackieren mit einem z. B. wasserbasierten Primer zu beschichten, insbesondere zu versiegeln. Das Primern stellt eine Grundierung oder Erstbeschichtung des Bedruckstoffes dar, um insbesondere eine Haftung einer danach auf den Bedruckstoff aufzutragenden Druckfarbe oder Tinte zu verbessern oder erst zu ermöglichen. Dazu wird z. B. ein Weißlack auf den Bedruckstoff aufgetragen. Die Primerauftrageinrichtung 02 ist z. B. in Verbindung mit einem Druckwerk 86 einer Rotationsdruckmaschine ausgebildet und weist z. B. einen mit einem Anlagedruckzylinder 119 zusammenwirkenden Druckwerkszylinder 82 mit einer an diesen Druckwerkszylinder 82 angestellten oder zumindest anstellbaren Auftragswalze 83 vorzugsweise in Form einer Rasterwalze 83 auf sowie mindestens eine sich in Axialrichtung der Auftragswalze 83 erstreckende Rakel 84, insbesondere ein Kammerrakelsystem 84 (
Der von einer z. B. als eine Flexo-Druckeinrichtung 04 ausgebildeten Bearbeitungsstation 04 ausgeführte Flexodruck ist ein direktes Hochdruckverfahren, bei dem die erhabenen Stellen der Druckform bildtragend sind, welches häufig zum Bedrucken von Verpackungsmitteln aus Papier, Karton oder Pappe, aus metallisierter Folie oder aus einem Kunststoff wie z. B. PE, PET, PVC, PS, PP, PC verwendet wird. Im Flexodruck werden niedrigviskose Druckfarben und flexible Druckplatten verwendet, die aus Fotopolymer oder Gummi bestehen. Generell beinhaltet eine Flexo-Druckeinrichtung 04 a) eine Rasterwalze, über welche die Druckform eingefärbt wird, b) einen Druckzylinder, auch Formzylinder genannt, auf dem die Druckform befestigt ist, und c) einen Gegendruckzylinder, der den Bedruckstoff führt.The one of z. B. as a
Die als Flexo-Druckeinrichtung 04 oder als Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 ausgebildete, die Bogen jeweils mit mindestens einem statischen Druckbild bedruckende Bearbeitungsstation 04 weist vorzugsweise jeweils mehrere, z. B. mindestens vier Druckwerke 86 auf, wobei jedes Druckwerk 86 vorzugsweise eine andere Druckfarbe verdruckt, so dass der Bedruckstoff beim Durchgang durch die Flexo-Druckeinrichtung 04 oder die Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 jeweils mehrfarbig, z. B. in einem Vierfarbendruck bedruckt wird. Als Druckfarben werden insbesondere die Farbtöne Gelb, Magenta, Cyan und Schwarz verwendet. In einer zum Flexodruckverfahren oder Offsetdruckverfahren alternativen Ausführung der Druckeinrichtung 04 ist die die Bogen jeweils mit mindestens einem statischen Druckbild bedruckende Bearbeitungsstation 04 als eine in einem Siebdruckverfahren druckende Druckeinrichtung 04 ausgebildet.The trained as a
Nach einer Bearbeitung des Bedruckstoffes in der mindestens einen Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 wird dieser Bedruckstoff z. B. einer als ein Trockner 07, insbesondere als ein Zwischentrockner 07 ausgebildeten Bearbeitungsstation 07 zugeführt, wobei dieser Zwischentrockner 07 als ein den betreffenden Bedruckstoff z. B. durch Heißluft und/oder durch eine Bestrahlung mit infraroter oder ultravioletter Strahlung trocknend ausgebildet ist, wobei ein durch ultraviolette Strahlung trocknender Trockner z. B. als ein LED-Trockner ausgebildet ist, wobei die Strahlungsart insbesondere davon abhängig ist, ob die auf den Bedruckstoff aufgetragene Druckfarbe oder Tinte wasserbasiert oder UV-härtend ist. Nach der Zwischentrocknung wird der Bedruckstoff z. B. einer als eine Lackiereinrichtung 08 ausgebildeten Bearbeitungsstation 08 zugeführt. Die Lackiereinrichtung 08 trägt auf dem Bedruckstoff vorzugsweise einen z. B. transparenten oder weißen oder bunten Dispersionslack auf, wobei Dispersionslacke im Wesentlichen aus Wasser und Bindemitteln (Harzen) bestehen, wobei Tenside diese Dispersionen stabilisieren. Eine einen Dispersionslack auf den Bedruckstoff auftragende Lackiereinrichtung 08 besteht entweder aus einer Anilox-Walze, einem Kammerrakel und einer Auftragswalze (vergleichbar einem Flexo-Druckwerk) oder aus einer Tauch- und Auftragswalze. Mittels einer Druckform vorzugsweise auf Fotopolymerisationsbasis werden auf dem Bedruckstoff z. B. flächige und/oder partielle Lackierungen aufgetragen. Verwendbar sind auch spezielle Lackplatten aus Gummi für vollflächige Lackierungen. Im Transportweg des Bedruckstoffes ist nach der Lackiereinrichtung 08 z. B. eine als ein Trockner 09 ausgebildete Bearbeitungsstation 09 angeordnet, wobei dieser Trockner 09 als ein den betreffenden Bedruckstoff durch Heißluft und/oder durch eine Bestrahlung mit infraroter oder ultravioletter Strahlung trocknend ausgebildet ist, wobei ein durch ultraviolette Strahlung trocknender Trockner z. B. als ein LED-Trockner ausgebildet ist. Falls die betreffende Maschinenanordnung entlang des Transportweges des Bedruckstoffes mehrere Trockner 07; 09 aufweist, ist der Trockner mit dem Bezugszeichen 09 vorzugsweise der in Transportrichtung T des Bedruckstoffes letzte dieser mehreren Trockner 07; 09, wobei der oder die Zwischentrockner 07 und der (End-)Trockner 09 baulich gleich sind oder auch unterschiedlich ausgebildet sein können. Falls dem Trockner 09 ein durch ultraviolette Strahlung trocknender Bedruckstoff zugeführt wird, d. h. ein Bedruckstoff, auf dem eine durch eine UV-Strahlung härtende Druckfarbe oder Tinte oder ein durch eine UV-Strahlung härtender Lack, z. B. ein Glanzlack aufgetragen ist, ist dieser Trockner 09 mit einer ultraviolette Strahlung erzeugenden Strahlungsquelle ausgestattet. Mit Dispersionslacken lassen sich im Vergleich zum klassischen Öldrucklack intensivere Glanz- und Mattwirkungen erzielen. Spezielle optische Wirkungen können durch Effektpigmente im Lack erreicht werden. Die Primerauftrageinrichtung 02, die Kaltfolienauftrageinrichtung 03 und die Lackiereinrichtung 08 können unter dem Begriff Beschichtungseinrichtung 02; 03; 08 zusammengefasst werden.After processing of the printing material in the at least one
Nach der entlang seines Transportweges letzten Trocknung wird der Bedruckstoff z. B. einer Bearbeitungsstation 11 zugeführt, die am Bedruckstoff eine mechanische Weiterverarbeitung ausführt, z. B. durch Stanzen, Rillen und/oder Trennen von Teilen, insbesondere Ausbrechen von Nutzen aus ihrem jeweiligen Verbund im vorzugsweise bedruckten Bogen. Jede der vorgenannten Weiterverarbeitungen wird jeweils in bzw. von einem Bearbeitungswerk 46 ausgeführt. Die mechanische Weiterverarbeitung wird vorzugsweise im Zusammenwirken mit einem den jeweiligen Bogen transportierenden Zylinder ausgeführt. Danach oder direkt vom im Transportweg des Bedruckstoffes letzten Trockner 09 gelangt der Bedruckstoff zu einer Auslage 12, welche in jeder der in der

Die im Anleger 01, insbesondere im Bogenanleger 01 von einem Stapel aufgegriffenen Bogen werden beabstandet voneinander einzeln z. B. durch die z. B. Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 ausgebildete der Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 vorgeordnete Bearbeitungsstation 02; 03; 04 mit einer ersten Transportgeschwindigkeit transportiert. Die von der der Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 vorgeordneten z. B. als Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 ausgebildeten Bearbeitungsstation 02; 03; 04 an die Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 übergebenen Bogen werden in dieser Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 mit einer zweiten Transportgeschwindigkeit transportiert, wobei die in der Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 geltende zweite Transportgeschwindigkeit i. d. R. geringer ist als die z. B. in der Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 geltende erste Transportgeschwindigkeit. Zur Anpassung der z. B. in der Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 geltenden ersten Transportgeschwindigkeit an die i. d. R. geringere in der Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 geltende zweite Transportgeschwindigkeit wird z. B. die zwischen direkt aufeinanderfolgenden Bogen bestehende Bogenlücke, d. h. der Abstand, der sich z. B. aufgrund einer Greiferkanalbreite für die im Greiferschluss z. B. durch die Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 transportierten Bogen ergibt, bei der Übergabe dieser Bogen z. B. von der Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 an die Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 vorzugsweise verringert, wobei eine solche Abstandsverringerung bezogen auf ihren ursprünglichen Abstand z. B. im Bereich zwischen 1% und 98% liegt. Damit werden direkt aufeinanderfolgende Bogen auch in der Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 voneinander beabstandet transportiert, jedoch mit einer i. d. R. geringeren Bogenlücke bzw. mit einem geringeren Abstand als z. B. in der Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 und demzufolge auch mit einer geringeren zweiten Transportgeschwindigkeit. Diese zweite Transportgeschwindigkeit wird vorzugsweise beibehalten, wenn in der Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 bedruckte Bogen zunächst an einen Zwischentrockner 07 oder Trockner 09 und von dort z. B. mittels eines Anlegetisches an eine mechanische Weiterverarbeitungseinrichtung 11 weiter bis zur Auslage 12 transportiert werden. Jedoch können die Bogen von ihrer zweiten Transportgeschwindigkeit auch auf eine dritte Transportgeschwindigkeit gebracht werden, wenn dies die der Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 nachgeordnete z. B. als mechanische Weiterverarbeitungseinrichtung 11 ausgebildete Bearbeitungsstation 08; 09; 11 erfordert, wobei die dritte Transportgeschwindigkeit i. d. R. höher ist als die zweite Transportgeschwindigkeit und z. B. wieder der insbesondere in der Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 geltenden ersten Transportgeschwindigkeit entspricht. Vor der mechanischen Weiterverarbeitungseinrichtung 11 ist z. B. die zweite Transportzylinderanordnung vorgesehen, welche die aus dem Zwischentrockner 07 oder Trockner 09 kommenden Bogen aufgreift und zur mechanischen Weiterverarbeitungseinrichtung 11 transportiert. Auch im Bereich der mechanischen, in Reihe z. B. mehrere Bearbeitungswerke 46 aufweisenden Weiterverarbeitungseinrichtung 11 ist für eine Übergabe der Bogen von einer zur nächsten der in einer Reihe angeordneten Bearbeitungswerke 46 jeweils ein Rotationskörper, insbesondere ein Zylinder, vorzugsweise eine Transfertrommel 44 vorgesehen, die jeweils zwischen zwei benachbarten Bearbeitungswerken 46 angeordnet ist. Eines der Bearbeitungswerke 46 ist z. B. als ein Stanzwerk, insbesondere als ein Rotationsstanzwerk, ein anderes Bearbeitungswerk 46 z. B. als ein Rillwerk ausgebildet. Das betreffende Bearbeitungswerk 46 ist die mechanische Weiterverarbeitung der Bogen vorzugsweise in einem Zusammenwirken mit einem den jeweiligen Bogen transportierenden Zylinder ausführend ausgebildet. Nach ihrer mechanischen Weiterverarbeitung werden die Bogen und/oder aus ihnen herausgetrennte Nutzen z. B. mittels eines Kettenförderers 21 zur Auslage 12 transportiert und dort gesammelt, vorzugsweise gestapelt.In the
Die Bogen werden vom Ausgang der z. B. als Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 ausgebildeten der Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 vorgeordneten Bearbeitungsstation 02; 03; 04 zumindest bis zum Ausgang des Zwischentrockners 07 oder Trockners 09, vorzugsweise bis zum Anfang der der Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 nachgeordneten z. B. als mechanische Weiterverarbeitungseinrichtung 11 ausgebildeten Bearbeitungsstation 08; 09; 11 jeweils mittels einer mehrteiligen, d. h. aus mehreren in Transportrichtung T der Bogen nacheinander angeordneten Baugruppen, insbesondere Transporteinheiten bestehenden Transporteinrichtung transportiert, wobei die Transporteinrichtung vorzugsweise mehrere mehrfachgroße Transportzylinder 39 aufweist. Bei Bedarf kann auch zwischen der Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 und der Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 ein Zwischentrockner 07 oder ein Trockner 09 angeordnet sein.The bows are from the output of z.

Wie bereits erwähnt, ist vorgesehen, mit den zuvor beschriebenen Maschinenanordnungen, die jeweils mehrere Bearbeitungsstationen 01; 02; 03; 04; 06; 07; 08; 09; 11; 12 zur Bearbeitung von Bogen und für den Transport dieser Bogen mindestens eine Transportvorrichtung aufweisen, Bogen unterschiedlichen Formats, d. h. von unterschiedlicher Länge und/oder Breite zu bearbeiten. Daher unterscheiden sich die i. d. R. rechteckförmigen Bogen z. B. in ihrer jeweiligen Länge, wobei sich diese Länge jeweils in Transportrichtung T dieser Bogen erstreckt. Um bei Verwendung einer insbesondere als eine Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 ausgebildeten Bearbeitungsstation 02; 03; 04; 06; 07; 08; 09; 11; 12, der mehrere Bogen sequentiell zugeführt werden, die Produktivität der jeweiligen Maschinenanordnung bei vergleichsweise kürzeren Bogen, d. h. bei Bogen kleineren Formats gegenüber sonst großformatigeren in dieser Maschinenanordnung bearbeiteten Bogen, nicht zu verringern, wird ein Verfahren mit folgenden Verfahrensschritten vorgeschlagen:As already mentioned, it is provided with the machine arrangements described above, each of which
Verfahren zum Betrieb einer mehrere Bogen einer Bearbeitungsstation 02; 03; 04; 06; 07; 08; 09; 11; 12 sequentiell zuführenden Transportvorrichtung, bei dem zum Bearbeiten durch dieselbe Bearbeitungsstation 02; 03; 04; 06; 07; 08; 09; 11; 12 Bogen unterschiedlicher sich jeweils in Transportrichtung T dieser Bogen erstreckender Länge verwendet werden, wobei die der Bearbeitungsstation 02; 03; 04; 06; 07; 08; 09; 11; 12 nacheinander zuzuführenden Bogen von der Transportvorrichtung jeweils in einem Abstand transportiert werden, wobei die Transportvorrichtung den zu transportierenden Bogen jeweils eine Transportgeschwindigkeit aufprägt, wobei der zwischen unmittelbar aufeinander folgenden Bogen bestehende Abstand für Bogen verschiedener sich jeweils in Transportrichtung T dieser Bogen erstreckender Länge durch eine Veränderung der von der Transportvorrichtung den betreffenden Bogen aufzuprägenden Transportgeschwindigkeit konstant gehalten wird, wobei die Transportgeschwindigkeit des in Transportrichtung T nachfolgenden Bogens im Verhältnis zu der Transportgeschwindigkeit des unmittelbar vorausgehenden Bogens verändert wird. Dabei werden die der betreffenden Bearbeitungsstation 02; 03; 04; 06; 07; 08; 09; 11; 12 nacheinander zuzuführenden Bogen zum Erreichen und/oder zum Beibehalten einer von der Bearbeitungsstation 02; 03; 04; 06; 07; 08; 09; 11; 12 zu erbringenden hohen Produktivität von der Transportvorrichtung jeweils vorzugsweise in einem minimalen, aber i. d. R. von Null verschiedenen Abstand transportiert. Der Abstand zwischen in Transportrichtung T aufeinanderfolgenden Bogen, d. h. zwischen der sich quer zur Transportrichtung T erstreckenden hinteren Kante des vorhergehenden Bogens und der sich quer zur Transportrichtung T erstreckenden Vorderkante des unmittelbar nachfolgenden Bogens, liegt z. B. im Bereich zwischen 0,5 mm und 50 mm, vorzugsweise bei weniger als 10 mm. Wenn ein Bogen kürzerer Länge in der betreffenden Bearbeitungsstation 02; 03; 04; 06; 07; 08; 09; 11; 12 nach einem Bogen größerer Länge zu bearbeiten ist, wird der Bogen kürzerer Länge von der Transportvorrichtung durch eine Erhöhung seiner Transportgeschwindigkeit beschleunigt. Umgekehrt wird ein Bogen größerer Länge von der Transportvorrichtung durch eine Verringerung seiner Transportgeschwindigkeit verlangsamt, wenn der Bogen größerer Länge in der betreffenden Bearbeitungsstation 02; 03; 04; 06; 07; 08; 09; 11; 12 nach einem Bogen kürzerer Länge zu bearbeiten ist. Als Bearbeitungsstation 02; 03; 04; 06; 07; 08; 09; 11; 12 wird vorzugsweise eine Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 verwendet, deren Produktivität i. d. R. dann am größten ist, wenn ihr die von ihr zu bedruckenden Bogen ungeachtet ihres jeweiligen Formats in einem konstanten minimalen Abstand aufeinanderfolgend zugeführt werden. Wenn in der betreffenden Maschinenanordnung der Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 eine z. B. als eine Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 ausgebildete Bearbeitungsstation 04 vorgeordnet ist, werden in der Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 bedruckte Bogen unabhängig von ihrem jeweiligen Format mit der einer Produktionsgeschwindigkeit dieser Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 entsprechenden Transportgeschwindigkeit der Transportvorrichtung zugeführt, wobei diese diesen Bogen von der Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04 vorgegebene Transportgeschwindigkeit während ihres Transports mit der Transportvorrichtung an die einer Verarbeitungsgeschwindigkeit der Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 entsprechende Transportgeschwindigkeit anzupassen ist. Wenn diese Bogen ungeachtet ihres jeweiligen Formats zusätzlich noch jeweils in einem konstanten Abstand zueinander der Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 zugeführt werden sollen, werden Bogen größerer Länge weniger verlangsamt als kürzere Bogen, jedoch wird in jedem Fall eine Verringerung ihrer jeweiligen Transportgeschwindigkeit erforderlich sein, weil die Verarbeitungsgeschwindigkeit der Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtung 06 i. d. R. geringer ist als die Produktionsgeschwindigkeit der Offset-Druckeinrichtung 04.Method for operating a plurality of sheets of a
Der jeweilige Bogen wird während seines Transports von einer zur nächsten Bearbeitungsstation 01; 02; 03; 04; 06; 07; 08; 09; 11; 12 und/oder auch innerhalb dieser jeweils als ein Modul ausgebildeten Bearbeitungsstationen 01; 02; 03; 04; 06; 07; 08; 09; 11; 12 jeweils von der jeweiligen in Transportrichtung T der Bogen hintereinander mehrere Transportzylinder aufweisenden Transportvorrichtung vorzugsweise jeweils kraftschlüssig und/oder formschlüssig durch Haltemittel, z.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführung wird die dem betreffenden Bogen aufzuprägende Transportgeschwindigkeit von einer z. B. an einem Leitstand der Maschinenanordnung angeordneten vorzugsweise elektronischen Steuereinheit eingestellt, wobei die Steuereinheit die Einstellung der Transportgeschwindigkeit insbesondere zur Einhaltung des konstanten Abstands zwischen aufeinanderfolgenden Bogen z. B. in einem Regelkreis vornimmt. Es ist z. B. vorgesehen, dass ein der mechanischen Weiterverarbeitungseinrichtung 11 zuzuführender Bogen durch den Schwinggreifer 19 und die z. B. einfachgroß ausgebildeten Übergabetrommel 31 von der zweiten Transportgeschwindigkeit auf die dritte Transportgeschwindigkeit gebracht wird, was bedeutet, dass der betreffende Bogen insbesondere durch die von der Steuereinheit gesteuerte Rotation der Übergabetrommel 31 beschleunigt wird.In a preferred embodiment, the relevant sheet aufzuprägende transport speed of a z.

Die Wendeeinrichtung 23 kann beispielsweise als Drei-Trommel-Wendung oder als Ein-Trommel-Wendung ausgebildet sein. In der Drei-Trommel-Wendung sind drei Substratführungszylinder angeordnet. In Transportrichtung T der Substrate ist dabei beispielsweise eine einfachgroße oder doppeltgroße Übergabetrommel, eine vorzugsweise doppeltgroße Speichertrommel und eine vorzugsweise einfachgroße Wendetrommel angeordnet. Ein einfachgroßer Zylinder kann dabei ein Substrat maximalen Formates umfangsseitig aufnehmen. Ein einfachgroßer Zylinder weist z. B. in einem Offset-Druckwerk so bezogen auf den Durchmesser eines z.

Die Substrathaltesysteme sind vorzugsweise als ein Greifersystem für die in Transportrichtung T vordere Kante des Substrates ausgebildet. Vorzugsweise sind auch Fixierelemente für den hinteren Bereich eines Substrates vorgesehen, die vorzugsweise jeweils als ein Saugersystem ausgebildet sind. Die Saugersysteme sind vorzugsweise mit verstellbaren hinteren Mantelsegmenten verbunden und in Umfangsrichtung relativ gegenüber den Greifersystemen an vorderen Mantelsegmenten verstellbar, so dass Substrate vom maximalen bis minimalen Format in der Betriebsart Schöndruck und/oder in der Betriebsart Schön- und Widerdruck im vorderen und hinteren Bereich auf der Speichertrommel gehalten werden können. Unterhalb von Speichertrommel und/oder Wendetrommel sind Substratführungselemente zur Führung der Substrate anordenbar. Weiterbildend ist der Wendeeinrichtung 23 eine Leitrakel zum Führen des Substrates zwischen der Speichertrommel und Wendetrommel zugeordnet.The turning drum is in particular with a turning gripper system and the storage drum is then equipped with at least one substrate holding system per substrate-supporting lateral surface. The substrate holding systems are preferably designed as a gripper system for the front in the transport direction T edge of the substrate. Preferably, fixing elements are also provided for the rear region of a substrate, which are preferably designed in each case as a suction system. The teat systems are preferably connected to adjustable rear shell segments and adjustable in the circumferential direction relative to the gripper systems on front shell segments, so that substrates of maximum to minimum size in the mode Perfecting and / or in the operating mode perfecting in the front and rear area on the Storage drum can be kept.

Die Non-Impact-Druckeinrichtungen 06; 37 sind in der bevorzugten Ausführung der jeweiligen Maschinenanordnung jeweils als Inkjetdruckeinrichtungen ausgebildet. Derartige Inkjetdruckeinrichtungen weisen jeweils zumindest einen Düsenbalken auf. Zumindest ein Düsenbalken erstreckt sich bevorzugt orthogonal zu dem vorgesehenen Transportweg des Bedruckstoffs bzw. Substrates über eine Arbeitsbreite der Druckmaschine. Der zumindest eine Düsenbalken weist bevorzugt zumindest eine Reihe von Düsen auf. Die zumindest eine Reihe von Düsen weist in einer Querrichtung gesehen bevorzugt über die gesamte Arbeitsbreite der Druckmaschine und/oder Breite des Ballens des zumindest einen ersten Zentralzylinders, d. h. Druckzylinders 22; 38 in beispielsweise regelmäßigen Abständen Düsenöffnungen, d. h. Tintenaustrittsöffnungen auf. Die Düsen sind bevorzugt auf mehrere Druckköpfe verteilt. Eine die Düsenöffnungen umgebende Fläche des jeweiligen Druckkopfs wird bevorzugt Düsenfläche genannt.The
Bevorzugt weist jeder Düsenbalken zumindest einen Tragkörper auf. An dem Tragkörper sind direkt oder bevorzugt indirekt, beispielsweise über Positioniereinrichtungen und/oder insbesondere als Ausrichteinrichtung ausgebildete Verbindungselemente die Druckköpfe dieses Düsenbalkens befestigt. Der Düsenbalken selbst ist bevorzugt über zumindest eine Stelleinrichtung relativ zu einem Gestell des Druckaggregats, d. h. der betreffenden Bearbeitungsstation 06, und/oder relativ zu einer Rotationsachse eines Zentralzylinders des Druckaggregats bewegbar angeordnet. Ein Stellweg der Stelleinrichtung weist in einer ersten Ausführungsform ausschließlich in einer Stellrichtung, die zumindest eine Komponente in einer zu der Rotationsachse des Zentralzylinders radialen Richtung aufweist und die weiter bevorzugt ausschließlich radial zu der Rotationsachse des Zentralzylinders orientiert ist. Der Stellweg der Stelleinrichtung weist in einer zweiten Ausführungsform der Stelleinrichtung über zumindest 75 %, weiter bevorzugt zumindest 90 % seiner gesamten Länge in einer Stellrichtung, die zumindest eine Komponente in einer zu der Rotationsachse des Zentralzylinders parallelen Richtung aufweist und die weiter bevorzugt ausschließlich parallel zu der Rotationsachse des Zentralzylinders orientiert ist. Ein kleiner Teil des Stellwegs weist dann bevorzugt dennoch in einer radialen Richtung, um Beschädigungen der Druckköpfe zu vermeiden.Each nozzle bar preferably has at least one supporting body. On the support body directly or preferably indirectly, for example via positioning means and / or in particular designed as alignment means connecting elements, the printheads this nozzle beam attached. The nozzle bar itself is preferably arranged via at least one adjusting device relative to a frame of the printing unit, ie the
Die Stellbewegung mittels der Stelleinrichtung dient beispielsweise dazu, Druckköpfe zugänglich zu machen für Wartungsarbeiten und/oder Reinigungsarbeiten und/oder einen einzelnen oder gruppenweisen Austausch eines oder mehrerer Druckköpfe. Insbesondere kann durch die Stellbewegung mittels der Stelleinrichtung ein temporärer Zugang für eine Reinigungseinrichtung zu jeweiligen Druckköpfen geschaffen werden.The adjusting movement by means of the adjusting device serves, for example, to make printheads accessible for maintenance and / or cleaning work and / or a single or group-wise replacement of one or more print heads. In particular, a temporary access for a cleaning device to respective printheads can be created by the adjusting movement by means of the adjusting device.
Bevorzugt sind in der Querrichtung nebeneinander mehrere Druckköpfe an dem zumindest einen Düsenbalken angeordnet, deren Düsenflächen beispielsweise die Form eines Rechtecks, aber weiter bevorzugt die Form eins Trapezes und/oder eines Parallelogramms aufweisen. Da üblicherweise solche einzelnen Druckköpfe nicht bis zu einem Rand ihres Gehäuses mit Düsen versehen sind, müssen Druckköpfe bezüglich der Querrichtung überlappend angeordnet werden. Die zumindest eine Reihe von Düsen ist bevorzugt nicht als eine einzige lineare Aneinanderreihung von Düsen ausgebildet, sondern ergibt sich als Summe mehrerer einzelner, weiter bevorzugt zweier, in Umfangsrichtung versetzt zueinander angeordneter Aneinanderreihungen von Düsen. Dazu sind unterschiedliche Ausführungsformen möglich.Preferably, a plurality of print heads are arranged side by side on the at least one nozzle bar in the transverse direction, the nozzle faces, for example, have the shape of a rectangle, but more preferably the shape of a trapezoid and / or a parallelogram. Since such individual printheads are usually not provided with nozzles up to an edge of their housing, printheads need to be overlapped with respect to the transverse direction. The at least one row of nozzles is preferably not formed as a single linear juxtaposition of nozzles, but results as the sum of a plurality of individual, more preferably two, circumferentially offset from each other arranged juxtaposition of nozzles. For this purpose, different embodiments are possible.
In einer ersten Ausführungsform sind beispielsweise zumindest zwei und weiter bevorzugt genau zwei sich in der Querrichtung erstreckende Reihen von Druckköpfen in Umfangsrichtung des ersten Zentralzylinders versetzt zueinander angeordnet, bevorzugt so, dass in Querrichtung aufeinanderfolgende Druckköpfe bevorzugt abwechselnd einer der zumindest zwei Reihen von Druckköpfen angehören, bevorzugt immer abwechselnd einer ersten und einer zweiten von zwei Reihen von Druckköpfen . Zwei solche Reihen von Druckköpfen bilden eine Doppelreihe von Druckköpfen.For example, in a first embodiment, at least two, and more preferably exactly two, transversely extending rows of printheads are staggered in the circumferential direction of the first central cylinder, preferably such that transversely consecutive printheads preferably alternately belong to one of the at least two rows of printheads always alternately a first and a second of two rows of printheads. Two such rows of printheads form a double row of printheads.
In einer zweiten Ausführungsform weisen die Druckköpfe aneinander angepasste Gehäuseformen auf. Beispielsweise weist eine jeweilige Düsenfläche jedes Druckkopfs und/oder zumindest eine jeweilige den Druckkopf in seiner Ausstoßrichtung begrenzende Fläche des Druckkopfs eine von einer Rechteckform abweichende Form auf, insbesondere die Form eines bevorzugt symmetrischen Trapezes und/oder eines Parallelogramms. Dadurch können die Düsenflächen von benachbarten Druckköpfen auf die Querrichtung bezogen überlappen und die Druckköpfe dennoch auf die Querrichtung bezogen direkt nebeneinander angeordnet sein, insbesondere ohne in einer Transportrichtung T versetzt zueinander angeordnet zu sein. Eine solche Reihe von Druckköpfen wird beispielsweise schräg überlappende Reihe von Druckköpfen genannt.In a second embodiment, the print heads have adapted to each other housing forms. For example, a respective nozzle surface of each print head and / or at least one respective surface of the print head delimiting the print head in its ejection direction has a shape deviating from a rectangular shape, in particular the shape of a preferably symmetrical trapezoid and / or a parallelogram. As a result, the nozzle surfaces of adjacent print heads may overlap in the transverse direction and the print heads may nevertheless be arranged directly adjacent to one another in the transverse direction, in particular without being offset relative to one another in a transport direction T. Such a series of printheads is called, for example, obliquely overlapping series of printheads.
Insbesondere sind zumindest im Druckbetrieb in Umfangsrichtung bezüglich des zumindest einen ersten Zentralzylinders mehrere Reihen von Druckköpfen, beispielsweise zumindest vier Doppelreihen und weiter bevorzugt zumindest sieben Doppelreihen von Druckköpfen oder bevorzugt zumindest vier Reihen von schräg überlappenden Druckköpfen und weiter bevorzugt zumindest sieben Reihen von schräg überlappenden Druckköpfen nacheinander auf den zumindest einen ersten Zentralzylinder ausgerichtet angeordnet.In particular, at least in the printing operation in the circumferential direction with respect to the at least one first central cylinder, several rows of printheads, for example at least four double rows and more preferably at least seven double rows of printheads or preferably at least four rows of obliquely overlapping printheads and more preferably at least seven rows of obliquely overlapping printheads in succession arranged aligned on the at least one first central cylinder.
Jeder Doppelreihe von Druckköpfen oder schräg überlappenden Reihe von Druckköpfen ist bevorzugt ein Beschichtungsmittel, insbesondere eine Druckfarbe einer bestimmten Farbe zugeordnet und/oder zuordenbar, beispielsweise jeweils eine der Farben Schwarz, Cyan, Gelb und Magenta oder Orange, Grün, Violett oder ein Lack, beispielsweise ein Klarlack. Beispielsweise sind jeweils einem Beschichtungsmittel zwei Doppelreihen von Druckköpfen oder zwei schräg überlappende Reihen von Druckköpfen zugeordnet. Der zumindest eine Druckkopf arbeitet zur Erzeugung von Beschichtungsmitteltropfen bevorzugt nach dem drop-on-demand-Verfahren, bei dem Beschichtungsmitteltropfen bei Bedarf gezielt erzeugt werden.Each double row of printheads or obliquely overlapping row of printheads is preferably associated with and / or assignable to a coating agent, in particular a printing ink of a specific color, for example in each case one of the colors black, cyan, yellow and magenta or orange, green, violet or a varnish, for example a clear coat. For example, one coating agent is assigned two double rows of print heads or two obliquely overlapping rows of print heads. The at least one print head operates to produce coating agent drops, preferably by the drop-on-demand method, in which coating agent drops are selectively produced as needed.
In einem regulären Druckbetrieb sind alle Druckköpfe ortsfest angeordnet. Dadurch wird eine dauerhafte passergerechte und/oder registergerechte Ausrichtung aller Düsen sichergestellt. Es gibt unterschiedliche Situationen, in denen abgesehen von der Bewegung mittels der Stelleinrichtung eine definierte Ausrichtbewegung der Druckköpfe notwendig ist. Die jeweilige Ausrichtbewegung der Druckköpfe erfolgt bevorzugt mittels zumindest einer Positioniereinrichtung.In a regular printing operation, all print heads are stationary. This ensures a permanent passport-oriented and / or register-oriented alignment of all nozzles. There are different situations in which, apart from the movement by means of the adjusting device, a defined alignment movement of the print heads is necessary. The respective alignment movement of the print heads preferably takes place by means of at least one positioning device.
Bevorzugt ist zumindest eine Positioniereinrichtung angeordnet, mittels der zumindest ein Druckkopf in seiner Lage eingestellt werden kann, insbesondere in seiner Lage relativ zu anderen Druckköpfen des Druckaggregats und/oder zu anderen Druckköpfen, die dem selben Düsenbalken angehören und/oder in seiner Lage bezüglich der Querrichtung und/oder in seiner Lage bezüglich einer Schwenkachse, die parallel zu seiner Düsenausstoßrichtung orientiert ist. Bevorzugt sind mehrere Positioniereinrichtungen angeordnet. Beispielsweise ist jedem Druckkopf eine eigene Positioniereinrichtung zugeordnet. Bevorzugt ist jedoch zumindest eine derartige Positioniereinrichtung mehreren Druckköpfen gemeinsam zugeordnet, insbesondere derart, dass mehrere Druckköpfe gemeinsam mittels der ihnen zugeordneten gemeinsamen Positioniereinrichtung in ihrer Lage eingestellt werden können, insbesondere in ihrer Lage relativ zu dem gemeinsamen Düsenbalken und/oder relativ zu anderen Druckköpfen die an diesem gemeinsamen Düsenbalken angeordnet sind und/oder in ihrer Lage bezüglich der Querrichtung und/oder in ihrer Lage bezüglich einer Schwenkachse, die parallel zu deren Düsenausstoßrichtung orientiert ist.Preferably, at least one positioning device is arranged, by means of which at least one print head can be adjusted in its position, in particular in its position relative to other print heads of the printing unit and / or to other print heads belonging to the same nozzle bar and / or in its position with respect to the transverse direction and / or in its position with respect to a pivot axis oriented parallel to its nozzle ejection direction. Preferably, a plurality of positioning devices are arranged. For example, each print head is assigned its own positioning device. Preferably, however, at least one such positioning device is assigned to several printheads together, in particular in such a way that a plurality of printheads can be adjusted together by means of their associated common positioning in position, especially in their position relative to the common nozzle bar and / or relative to other printheads on these common nozzle bars are arranged and / or in their position with respect to the transverse direction and / or in their position with respect to a pivot axis which is oriented parallel to the direction of their Düsenausstoßrichtung.
Beispielsweise weist die zumindest eine Positioniereinrichtung zumindest einen Grundkörper auf. Bevorzugt ist der zumindest eine Druckkopf an dem zumindest einen Grundkörper angeordnet. Weiter bevorzugt sind mehrere, insbesondere zumindest drei und bevorzugt zumindest vier Druckköpfe an dem zumindest einen Grundkörper angeordnet. Der Grundkörper ist bevorzugt einteilig ausgebildet.For example, the at least one positioning device has at least one main body. Preferably, the at least one print head is arranged on the at least one base body. More preferably, a plurality, in particular at least three and preferably at least four print heads are arranged on the at least one base body. The main body is preferably formed in one piece.
Der jeweilige Druckkopf einerseits ist mit dem Grundkörper andererseits beispielsweise über zumindest ein Verbindungselement verbunden. Das zumindest eine Verbindungselement ist beispielsweise als Ausrichteinrichtung ausgebildet. Mittels der Ausrichteinrichtung ist der jeweilige Druckkopf bevorzugt individuell zu dem Grundkörper ausrichtbar, insbesondere manuell und/oder in seiner Lage bezüglich der Querrichtung und/oder in seiner Lage bezüglich einer Schwenkachse, die parallel zu seiner Düsenausstoßrichtung orientiert ist. Auf diese Weise können bevorzugt mehrere, insbesondere zumindest drei und weiter bevorzugt zumindest vier Druckköpfe relativ zu dem Grundkörper und damit auch zueinander ausgerichtet werden.The respective print head on the one hand is connected to the base body on the other hand, for example via at least one connecting element. The at least one connecting element is designed, for example, as an alignment device. By means of the alignment of the respective printhead is preferably individually aligned to the body, in particular manually and / or in its position with respect to the transverse direction and / or in its position relative to a pivot axis which is oriented parallel to its Düsenausstoßrichtung. In this way, preferably several, in particular at least three and more preferably at least four print heads can be aligned relative to the main body and thus also to one another.
Bevorzugt sind diese mehreren, insbesondere zumindest drei und weiter bevorzugt zumindest vier Druckköpfe und der Grundkörper jeweils Bestandteil einer ersten Baugruppe . Die Druckköpfe der ersten Baugruppe werden beispielsweise außerhalb des Druckaggregats relativ zu dem Grundkörper und damit auch zueinander ausgerichtet. Dadurch können diese mit entsprechendem Werkzeug und/oder unter Zuhilfenahme einer die relative Lage erfassenden Kamera und/oder mit besonders guter Zugänglichkeit zu dem Grundkörper und damit auch zueinander ausgerichtet werden. Dadurch wird eine in sich besonders präzise ausgerichtete jeweilige erste Baugruppe erzeugt.Preferably, these several, in particular at least three and more preferably at least four printheads and the main body are each part of a first assembly. The printheads of the first assembly, for example, outside of the printing unit relative to the body and thus aligned with each other. As a result, they can be aligned with a corresponding tool and / or with the aid of a camera detecting the relative position and / or with particularly good accessibility to the base body and thus also to one another. As a result, a particular precisely aligned respective first assembly is generated.
Bevorzugt ist der jeweilige Düsenbalken mehrere solcher ersten Baugruppen tragend angeordnet. Bevorzugt sind diese mehreren ersten Baugruppen über jeweils eigene Positioniereinrichtungen in ihrer jeweiligen Lage relativ zu dem Tragkörper dieses Düsenbalkens einstellbar. Bevorzugt sind demnach an einem Tragkörper mehrere Positioniereinrichtungen angeordnet. Bevorzugt sind an einem Tragkörper zumindest indirekt über die Positioniereinrichtungen mehrere erste Baugruppen angeordnet, insbesondere mittels der mehreren Positioniereinrichtungen jeweils in ihrer Lage relativ zu dem Tragkörper einstellbar. Beispielsweise sind an einem Tragkörper zumindest indirekt über die Positioniereinrichtungen die Druckköpfe zweier schräg überlappender Reihen von Druckköpfen angeordnet.Preferably, the respective nozzle bar is arranged supporting several such first assemblies. Preferably, these several first assemblies are adjustable in their respective position relative to the support body of this nozzle beam via their own positioning. Accordingly, a plurality of positioning devices are preferably arranged on a support body.
