Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for setting up a circumferential register of a print job in a printing press and a rotary printing press.
  • phase position In particular at the beginning of a print job, it takes a certain amount of time until the stated phase position is found. Material to be printed is usually also consumed in the process, so that waste occurs. In addition, finding the phase position often requires manual intervention.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to propose a method and a rotary printing machine which avoid or at least reduce at least some of the disadvantages mentioned.
  • the printing cylinders provided with the individual print images must first be inserted into the individual printing units.
  • the printing units also include counter-pressure rollers or cylinders over which the web of material runs. Later, the printing cylinder and/or counter-pressure roller are adjusted relative to one another, so that they can be brought from a non-printing arrangement into a printing arrangement in which the printing roller touches the material web and thus transfers ink.
  • the reverse adjustment option from printing to non-printing is also provided.
  • each pressure cylinder includes a positioning mark with which the pressure cylinder relative to the machine frame of the printing unit can be positioned or is positioned.
  • the positioning mark has a fixed position relative to a printed image of the respective printing cylinder, so that after the positioning of the printing cylinder, the printed image also assumes a fixed position relative to the machine frame.
  • the position of the positioning mark relative to the print image is preferably the same for all printing cylinders of a print job.
  • a positioning sensor is provided to detect the respective positioning mark. After being inserted and connected to a drive, the printing cylinder is preferably rotated at least until the positioning sensor detects the positioning mark. It is advantageous here that no print image has to be generated in order to carry out the step, ie waste is saved.
  • This print mark is preferably an unambiguous initial print mark that differs from other print marks and is only provided in or on the first impression cylinder of a print job.
  • the material web is now transported through the other printing units, with a print mark sensor scanning this print mark in each additional printing unit that is present.
  • the effective web path between the first impression cylinder and the respective print mark sensor can now be determined from the point in time at which the print mark sensor detects the print mark and from the web speed. Since the print mark sensor is a well-known, or at least simple determinable distance from the printing cylinder, the effective web path between the first printing cylinder and the printing cylinder under consideration, to which the respective printing mark sensor is assigned, can be calculated back. The phasing of the printing cylinder under consideration can now be set accordingly, so that both cylinders then print the print images one on top of the other in the correct register.
  • the time required to carry out the method according to the invention is essentially limited to the passage of the first print mark through all the printing units.
  • the at least one second printing unit is in a non-printing arrangement.
  • the substrate is not printed, so there is no waste.
  • the direction of movement of the material web can even be reversed at first in order to be able to guide it backwards. Since the printing units are set in their phase position relative to one another, the material web section that has already passed can be printed. Not only is there no waste, but the material web section that has already been used is immediately recycled.
  • the impression cylinder is often moved relative to the impression roller, so that the distance between the impression cylinder and the impression cylinder is also included in the calculation of the effective web path.
  • the positioning mark is detected optically, magnetically and/or electrically.
  • the positioning sensor is also designed accordingly, ie it can detect an optical contrast and/or a magnetic and/or electric field.
  • the position mark can be arranged on the outer circumference of the printing cylinder or on one of the end faces.
  • a magnetically and/or electrically recognizable positioning mark is insensitive to contamination, which can be caused by printing ink, for example.
  • This embodiment of the invention naturally also includes corresponding sensors that can detect such position marks, ie an optical sensor, a magnetic sensor and/or an electrical sensor.
  • the positioning mark comprises at least one of the following components: barcode, QR code, magnet, electronic chip, engraving in the printing cylinder, body raised relative to the surface of the printing cylinder.
  • a barcode or a QR code are optically detectable positioning marks that can be read with an optical scanner.
  • a magnet can be a small body of magnetic material that can be inserted into a bore of the printing cylinder, for example. A simple magnetic sensor is then sufficient to detect this magnet.
  • An electronic chip can provide an electrical field that can be evaluated with an electronic sensor.
  • an electronic chip like a magnet, can be set up to provide additional information about the printing cylinder.
  • Such a chip can in particular be an RFID chip.
  • a positioning mark can also include an engraving in the printing cylinder, which in turn can be recognized by an optical sensor.
  • a body that is raised relative to the surface of the printing cylinder and can be recognized either by an optical sensor or by a sensor that scans the surface of the cylinder is also conceivable.
  • a scanning sensor can be deflected when it hits the body. This deflection can be detected in a suitable manner.
  • a further preferred embodiment of the invention includes that the current status of the printing press and/or the current status of the method and/or at least one error message is displayed by means of a display device.
  • a display device is, for example, a monitor in the area of the operating unit of the printing press.
  • the information can also be displayed on mobile devices that are in data contact with the printing press in some way. In relation to the current status of the method, it can be displayed, for example, how much the method according to the invention will still need to complete.
  • an error message in the event of an error message, it is indicated in which printing unit the error occurred and/or what type of error is present. It is thus possible, for example, to indicate to a machine operator when the print mark in a printing unit was not recognized by a print mark sensor. Because on the basis of the machine speed prevailing during the implementation of the method, the point in time at which the Print mark would have to be recognized. However, if the print mark has not been recognized, this indicates an error. The same applies if a following print mark sensor has already recognized the print mark.
  • An error message can mean, for example, that a print mark sensor has a defect and/or is incorrectly positioned in relation to the printing cylinder.
  • a list of various causes that need to be checked can also be displayed to the machine operator. This ensures that the print job is completed completely and, above all, in the desired quality.
  • the method described above can be used particularly advantageously if a plastic web is printed with the print job.
  • a plastic web has a high level of elasticity, which can even depend on the temperature. This prevents printing from starting directly when the printing cylinders are positioned based on the positioning marks.
  • the method according to the invention thus offers particular advantages in combination with a plastic web.
  • the figures show schematic representations of a printing machine for carrying out the method according to the invention.
  • the printing machine 100 can be seen. This initially includes an unwinding device 101 with which a material web 102 is made available. This is fed to the individual printing units 110, 120, 130 via various rollers 103, which can be, for example, transport, deflection, spreader rollers or even entire roller units, such as those used in drying devices. Seen in the transport direction T of the material web, the printing unit 110 is the first printing unit which has special properties which will be discussed further below. It three printing units can be seen, but a printing machine according to the invention can of course include any number of printing units. However, it is also possible that in a method according to the invention not all existing printing units are used because the colors available in a printing press are not necessary for every print job.
  • Each printing unit includes an impression cylinder 111, 121, 131 and an impression cylinder 112, 122, 132.
  • the material web 102 is guided over the impression cylinder in order to be printed here by the impression cylinder.
  • the printing units are gravure printing units of a serial gravure printing press.
  • the printing cylinders generally remain stationary in the printing unit frame (not shown) when a print job is being processed, while the impression cylinders can be displaced relative to the printing cylinders, often in a vertical direction, in order to bring the material web into or out of contact with the printing cylinders.
  • the material web is generally fed to a winding device 141, in which it is wound back into rolls for easier transport.
  • the zero line of a printing cylinder is a quantity which has a predetermined or fixed relationship to the machine frame and relative to which the angular position of the printing cylinder relative to the machine frame can be specified.
  • the printing cylinder 111 carries a printing mark 115, which is designed as a depression, for example, in gravure printing. This print mark 115 has already been applied to the material web as a print mark imprint 150 .
  • print mark imprint 150 runs through all printing units and thus runs past print mark sensors 115, 125, 135, which preferably scan the material web continuously and, when printed mark imprint 150 is detected, sends a signal to an evaluation and control device (not shown).
  • this can calculate the effective path that the material web has taken either from the time the print mark print is printed and/or from the time the print mark print is recognized by the print mark sensor of one of the previous printing units has traveled up to the time of recognition by the print mark sensor in the printing unit under consideration.
  • the evaluation and control unit can now, taking into account the geometric data of the printing unit, in particular the circumference of the printing cylinder, which include the installation position of the printing cylinder, the position of the impression cylinder at the time the Print mark imprint (especially if it is not employed on the printing cylinder) and the angular position of the printing cylinder now include the angular position by means of a control signal of the printing cylinder so that the print images of each cylinder correspond to those of the other cylinders, in which case register-keeping printing is made possible.
  • the print mark sensors 115, 125 and 135 now work in a known manner as register sensors, which scan register marks that are not shown but are also printed and forward them to the evaluation and control unit, which sends control signals to the printing cylinders in the event of deviations.
  • a known register control is thus implemented.
  • Reference List 100 printing press 101 unwinding device 102 web of material 103 roller 110 printing unit 111 pressure cylinder 112 Impression cylinder 113 positioning marks 114 positioning sensor 115 print mark 120 printing unit 121 pressure cylinder 122 Impression cylinder 123 positioning marks 124 positioning sensor 125 print mark 130 printing unit 131 pressure cylinder 132 Impression cylinder 133 positioning marks 134 positioning sensor 135 print mark 141 unwinding device 150 Print mark imprint T transport direction
