  • the two chambers 32; 33 are preferably in each case from one roller end face by means of stub axles protruding from the end of the roller 13 via corresponding channels 47; 48, e.g. B. holes 47; 48, supplied with compressed air.
  • the roller bearing 44 can have a running surface widened by at least the lateral stroke of the roller 13.
  • the roller jacket body 34 encompassed by the roller outer body 14 preferably carries a plastic layer 46, in particular a layer 46 made of Rilsan®, on its jacket surface, or is formed by such a layer.
  • roller 13 with the non-contact seal can also be used particularly advantageously for printing units with a larger roller width, e.g. B.
  • Printing units for waterless offset printing with, for example, a roller or printing width of 1,000 mm and more, can be used.
  • the large mass of the roller outer body 14 can then be moved pneumatically without additional large friction losses, as is the case with seals.
